Best I can do is spam 陰茎 in chat when they show up
Well used to but I don’t have the keyboard installed anymore.

Meanwhile on mobile I have a mini stroke every time I use the Japanese keyboard

Seen from Japanese, Latin alphabet is still better than MS Gothic Japanese text

I don’t know what it says anyway so why not.

Imperial Japan was an Empire in of itself, the ā€œImperialisticā€ option is therefor the correct one.
:crazy_face:
But i agree that the unreadable scribbles would make for a better atmosphere

And how do you expect us to read and to pronounce all those characters? :sob: We have some rights you know? To be able to read japanese with the latin alphabet, just to name one…

:joy: I like the idea tho

It could say: everyone that reads this is shit head. But hey, looks fun and realistic :joy::joy::joy:

Yeah, but unreadable by developers have a problem that they makes meaningless text written with distorted fonts like this:

That looks wrong, not enough lines.

First you should probably campaign for them to replace english words that Japanese soldiers use in this game for some reason. Overall Japanese voiceover lines are a bit of a mess. Some of them sound like a modern machine translation.

Working on that would add a lot more meaningful authenticity without complicating things for those who can’t read Chinese / Japanese characters.

That is the chinese japanese have less line

As well know Japanese writing system consisted with three set of characters, and Japanese tankers often wrote text with Hiragana (less lines) so it is not a problem.
Problem is just text is meaningless (ć†ć¤ä¹ćØ) and font is distorted.

Yep I mentioned that in intial feedback on Day 1 when the Pacific dropped.
I don’t think DG cares though.

And let’s be honest it’s not like many people read the ā€œKuteitaiā€ on the logo anyway, the squad name still remains English though.
