Seeing this asked a lot, so wanted to clarify. The interview with Suda51 was shortened to mostly the translator bits as we have a lot to edit right now and didn't have time to do all the transcription required for closed captioning via the translator! Sorry guys! We'll look at uploading the full uncut version of the interview down the line once we get all this E3 content out the door.
It'd be nice to get a fan transcript. The translator actually seems really really good, but there's stuff that's just crazy hard to translate on the fly.
"Be a good dev and maybe SUDA51 will visit you in your dreams", said Yahtzee. Then Yahtzee went to E3 while doing his 12 games in 12 months project and actually MET Suda51. He promptly pinched himself to see if it was real.
@@tmarrittDue to the rapid advancement of technology in the country, people in Japan very rarely use their hands to masturbate. You can see an example of the technology they use in the documentary *The Zero Theorum*. Only older generations would get the connotation, and even then on one hand they're too polite to explain it to the younger generations and on the other they all find watching them charge their swords too funny.
You know... The nice thing about suda 51 is that he usually delivers something you dont expect. Even if corporations force him to ride cotails, alot of his projects have some kind unique gimmick... Or follow an existential auto biography of his life.
I love this style of interview, slight awkwardness and all, so much more than the super upbeat, preapproved, buzzword-filled nonsense you get in most interviews these days. Yahtzee asked the right questions, and we got some great insight into the growing pains and decision to scale down for Grasshopper. Phenomenal interview.
@@matthewmorrison3745 Just the overall exchange was a bit awkward from Yahtzee's side like the handshake, his overall body language and tone. But who can blame him? He's meeting one of his favorite game developers ever for the first time, I would be 10x more awkward. It's endearing really, like I said it actually adds to the interview with how genuine it is.
That was a very direct interview! The devs were transparent, and laid out the real ground work. "We don't have the resources to make a red dead redemption game." Most companies would try to have you refrain from showing any humanity like that.
anyone else envision this like those old karate movie dubs, where the character moves their mouth for like half a second, and a full paragraph of speech follows in the dub?
@@bruno17289 Well, you say that, but in he's reviews it's hard to tell that he liked anything but killer 7, though it's always hard to figure out if Yatzee likes a game or not...
@@rawe1313 Is tricky but if you read his suplemental material like his blog or lets play turns out he does like his games. The part at the beginning when he was saying he is one of his favorite developers, he really meant that
@@theblancmange1265 would that mean anything? Only reason that I just so happened to stick with such a bizarre name is because I read it in my dreams when I was a kid. Been my online handle ever since.
Love Suda 51, his style is amazing and very unique, Killer 7 is a hell of a game and I dont think ill ever forget the feeling of playing that game and being soooo weirded out by it....................in a good way, lots of good weird in Suda's game
See I find this one cool because you can tell Yahtzee is excited to meet suda. I realize this dudes a translator and that's not an easy job but I want a compilation of all the times someone said "uuh" in these interviews, romero was up there too.
We need more demand for Travis Touchdown in Smash Bros! I love Suda 51 and the No More Heroes series has gotten many adults back into Nintendo consoles. TSA was a great way to reignite that flame for Travis fans that have waited so long for the third game and if they add him as the last dlc character for Smash that will increase the hype for his third game, along with people that might pick up TSA and the ports of NMH1 and 2 that Suda says he is considering. Suda wants Travis in Smash and he wants us to make some noise for that to happen!
Really excited for NMH3. Great interview. Yahtzee is awesome. Suda51 is awesome. Even the translator was cool and oddly reminiscent of Travis Touchdown.
Is it possible to see the unedited suda51 responses? We only heard bits and pieces, but the translation was a bit awkward, and suda51 seems more articulate than the translator made him out to be. I’d really like to hear it in his own words, if possible!
I had an idea of what Suda's personality and mannerisms would be based on his games; on the one hand I kinda got what I was expected but I was also half expecting him to be like the Nier Automata guy.
I STILL WANT MORE NO MORE HEROES STYLE CLOTHING. FOR REAL. TO THIS DAY I WANT THAT RAD PHOENIX SHIRT AND BLUE JACKET FROM THE FIRST GAME. SELL ME THE CLOTHES, SUDA51, SELL ME THEM.
I wonder if it’s a trend that Japanese people who work in show business understand English and can have very simple conversations but always have a translator with them for press junkets
I really hope that the sandbox has changed. The problem with NHM1 was that to do jobs or assassination missions, you had to go to the specific building, then drive all the way to the job destination. I would prefer it if you could just do the jobs at the destination without having to go to the building. That alone would improve the pacing by a lot
The thing with Yahtzee is I know him from playing at a bar he opened in Brisbane and he's a very likeable miserable sort. As a fellow Englishman I don't see him as jaded as most as his wit and manner of speech is more common in certain parts of the UK where no matter the circumstance, they sound miserable. That said, I find him hilarious as his blunt approach never ceases to amuse. I'm still owed $100 by the way. The bill for that 1hr set never got finalised. Superfluid , 2005. 😊
Just thinking about the fact that No More Heroes 1 was back in the days when each game had a personalised opening and ending song in their reviews is kind of alarming.
He ask him a simple question, suda responds in with about 20 to 30 words. The guy in the shirt talks for 20 minutes. Is this the company talking for the director and telling us a tame response? I need some explaining here.
@@mariefurukawa2627 I see, well they should had explained that instead of just cuting out like that. I cant believe they didnt notice this, it made the interview look suspicious. I would have left the bits were he's responding in his own lenguage too, the video is super short as it is.
He did. In consecutive translation you usually have to translate the complete sentence the speaker says, so I guess given the nature of this translation (a fast-paced interview with time limit speaking about the nature of the game) the translator has to know a little more about the topic and not wait for the speaker to tell every single minuscule detail about the game. That, or the translator is very used to answering the same thing over and over again and both speaker and translator agreed to do it this way
It was edited down. We've got a lot to do and it didn't make sense for this interview to have them both say the same thing twice. With all the stuff we've got from E3 we didn't have time to do captions for everything. Sorry!
