This is a neat project and the modder is very straightforward about their method and its shortcomings. That said, there are over 25,000 lines of dialogue in Remake, so I expect this project to stall once it hits Chapter 3. Maybe they'll just shift to main scenario dialogue at that point.
Sorry for the 7-year necro, but check it out! @Ilovecloti over on Twitter provided scans for the four pages of the Dengeki PlayStation No. 40 interview. I transcribed these here and translated them here. A third or so of this interview can also be found over on shmupulations.com, mixed in with...
I went ahead and translated all the voice recording scripts. You can find them here in English and here in Japanese. I expect the localized Material Ultimania Plus to use the recording script for the corresponding region. Because there are big contextual differences between the Japanese and...
The irony to me is that all the actual news here is about CCR, but now that people know it won't be modified to link up with the Remake trilogy, they mostly don't give a shit, so instead they're combing the bits about Rebirith, which all use the exact same vague language we've been arguing over...
No not really. Nomura is doing a really bad job of trying to sound cryptic without revealing anything and in the end it just came out as gibberish. But based on the context it's very clear he's saying that CCR won't be changed because the point of the Remake project isn't to retcon what came...
The idea that the main party of five didn't die and still made it out of Midgar and then just poofed when the singularity closed does make more sense narratively even if it seems silly logically. That way we don't have Barret coming home and Marlene being like "but you died!" That said, it does...
Update 5/12/2022: @Odysseus has done the absolutely bonkers task of photoshopping these translations back onto the original Japanese pages. I've swapped out the pictures in this thread with his work. I've also updated the translations to incorporate the minor changes I made while proofreading...
She's supposed to be four years old in the OG and Remake. It was probably just an innocent oversight by the person who made the tag, picking a random date because they knew it wouldn't be visible during normal gameplay. Hence all the other typos
I just realized this can't be Marlene's correct birthday unless the date of Corel's destruction is retconned, as it would make Marlene five years old at the beginning of FFVII.
