I live in SoCal, so it's "Land", not "World".  :wink:

We've been spending a lot of days going over the formatting of the scripts to make them consistent, easy to read, and fully informative.

With generous spacing between character lines, lots of notes for actors, and thorough numbering and timing information, the combined length of both scripts is 148 pages. The total word count is over 22,000, although probably close to half of that is not actual dialogue itself. Regardless, it's on-par with a medium-sized movie script.  :mrgreen:

Just to let you guys know ...

Tobias will be including fake developer-signed copies of the Director's Edition of these milestone scripts in the forthcoming PCE Works special "Falcom Collector's Edition Box Set" of the Legend of Xanadu translations that he'll start duplicating as soon as we'd made his life easy by finishing it off and releasing it for free to everyone.  ](*,)

If people can't talk to trees after eating those, I'd demand a refund. :lol:

Insert one line  in title "work in translate game is xxxx and xxxx, Pce works and tobias only takes advantage of our work to earn money"
Publicity in all arround, tobias sell copy not copyright konami tittles, sending information konami.
Tobias has done very good things, force gear.
A few days ago a seller in Spain bought a shappire tobias by 1000e, I advise the seller that he sold a copy, but he did not care, and sell.
Is the problem and the danger of tobias games, that at least in Spain, almost nobody has a f*cking idea of the system, is more, they are very ignorant of everything that is Japanese.
If the same that translate these two games will get physics in a nice edition, I would be happy to pay what they asked me for their work and for the physical edition. But if you do not it is normal that another, take advantage of your work.

Wow, where did the last month go!  :shock:

Time for a quick update ...

SamIAm and I are pretty-much-ready to get started on the dub ... we're just waiting for the web pages to be finished.

Hopefully soon!
