As some of you may know, and as those of you who play New Wave definitely know, there are various forms of dialogue and even interaction littered throughout the game. I admit, this post and what I hope will come from it - provided Marvelous doesn't screw the time I've put into this over past few months over by localizing this - were initially my main reasons for starting New Wave, though it's since turned out pretty fun, buuuut that's besides the point.
Anyway, point is, there's a surprising amount of dialogue and interaction and other tidbits in New Wave given the kind of game it is. I'm not saying it's comparable to what a full game has, but considering what it does have is added to every week by means of more cards and events, it does add up, and it's my hope that by gathering it all together and hopefully even attracting someone interested in translating it all, the SK community can learn more about the New Wave girls as well as enjoy more from/about the girls from the regular games that appear in New Wave.
I do intend to... eventually make threads for all the different kinds of dialogue found in the game so we can try to have some form of organization here (more on this in a sec), but I'm still organizing the bajillions of screenshots (many of which ended up useless) I've taken since the end of last year alone.
As this is the start of what will hopefully lead to hundreds upon hundreds of screenshots being posted by myself and other players of New Wave, then those screenshots being updated with translations on top of them at some point, I'd like to add that this first post is more of a test - I'd like to brainstorm with SIA in regards to what the best way to organize things might be.
In the meantime, I'll just offer one example of how a thread might go... and then proceed to hibernate for a year before I try this again. If you guys even knew how much work I've been doing for what is likely going to end up an incredibly unsuccessful project, I swear...!
Anyway, here we go!
CLOTHING SWAP EVENT CUTSCENES
... At this point, I would say what would happen is that I would either post all of the images (there are over 100 for just cutscenes of this event - this doesn't include unique boss comments or any of that other stuff, which is at least a dozen more images, though I'm thinking about cropping those all together since they're smaller) and separate them by scene or maybe do this some other way. The problem I'm running into is that because I've been doing this for so long now, I don't remember which instances I didn't get every line of dialogue due to technical and other issues with my phone, and there were also some cases where two cutscenes were taken without an image in-between them (that's my method for splitting them up so I know there's a change), which could lead to some scenes getting blurred together.
For now, I put the rest of this event's scenes in an album if anyone wants to check them out, though if you do, start from the bottom since they go in reverse order and be warned there's nothing here marking a change between scenes or anything like that.
Now! With all that said and done, would anyone actually be interested in seeing this go somewhere? If no one even cares to begin with, I can stop now and delete the couple gigs of images I've got and move on. I'd like to think everyone here would like to know more about the New Waves, but hey, maybe it's just me.
Maybe more importantly, though, what kind of suggestions do you guys have for how this should be organized? Should we leave it in albums exclusively, with just previews on the forums (basically like I just did here), or should we try to post all of the images on the boards under spoilers, even if that means posting thousands of images on a single page? To that end, is anyone out there interested in participating in some way?
Basically, any and all comments are welcome now, so... Yeah! Gimme what you got!
