Because the party can't understand the BBEG and don't have the means to do so...

One of the reasons for having a translation spell of some kind, preferably as a permanent effect.

Ah, the classic shoe slamming technique.

I'm not sure whether I would love a twist where she was the BBEG all along or just think the GM was out of ideas. Somewhere in between.

It doesn't really work very well. When you're translating strong letter, or emotional speech, you tend to tone it down a bit. Partially because you're just relaying the message and have no emotional investment yourself, partially because you're aware of the risk that if receiving party is simple minded they might direct their immediate wrath on you.

t. former translator

Doin' it wrong. There's only one language that matters with your enemies, it's the poetry you write in their blood.

You're doing it wrong as well, while poetry of blood has undeniable merits, you should not underestimate other bodily fluids.

>"I, GARLAND, SHALL MAKE YOU FALL DOWN!"

So, do I shoot the interpreter or the BBEG in the middle of the speech?

That's the point of this encounter.
You clearly see bbeg articulate and use angry gestures.
And she just translates that with cutesy and professional voice.

Nice loli posting Fuckt/a/rd

Do you know what loli means?

That's an adult. Probably mid-late 20s.

Get your eyes checked.

>The BBEG is a kinda dull speaker, and the interpreter not wanting you guys to feel let down by it all decides to spice up his speech a bit.
>The BBEG can understand your language and notices this, and is secretly thankful

I see. Back in the days of VHS we would get dubbed foreign movies. The dubs were made on the budget, so usually all characters were voiced by single person speaking in apathetic monotonous voice.
Imagine that for an action flick.
Or for porn.

Give him a break. Some ret/a/rd last time spammed a "Loli what do" thread 7 times last night.

That's a mature, 40 ish woman.

>inb4 I was only pretending to be retarded

Yea, I tried and failed to derail it with banjos.

>porn

Just why. Not understanding them is a plus

>BBEG is mute, all speeches are pre-written and read by assistant with strong voice.
>BBEG will become visibly agitated / flustered at any unexpected turn of events that isn't covered by prepared speech

>The BBEG falls prone after the Party's final combination attack
>The interpreter rushes teary eyed to his side
>He whispers something unintelligible into her ear with his last breath
>The interpreter just keeps on bawling as she clutches his lifeless form

the cute terp relays your flirt to the bbeg as is her job.
>it's not like i like you, bard-kun
says the BBEG through the cute terp

Smite evil on her.

Better than an interpreter who "localizes" the ominous monologue by cramming it full of memes and removing any actual emotion from the speech.

>him
You aren't fooling anyone, you backpedaling moron

>him
Nigga you fucked up, just take it and walk

And so, we shall go to war!

>implying there's only one guy
Alright you ret/a/rd, we get that you're trying to defend your pedophilic tendencies.

Alright fine, let's make it a self-fulfilling prophecy
>underneath all that armor, the BBEG is actually a cute little loli that's 1000 years old
>the interpreter is there so she can be taken seriously

>It has no effect, and Smite Evil is used up for the day

She's not the BBEG, she's a lich. Gosh, it's little wonder you need an interpreter, reading like that. Although realistically, being infinite, her time has no value so she'll surely cut you a good rate.

Mate, your posting style is the same with /a/rd thing and there hasn't been any lolishit un this thread. Admit to fucking up.

Okay, I'll admit that the newest post was just me shitposting.

The first two were probably a genuine samefag though, I mean, I wouldn't expect any better from Veeky Forums's anti-loli brigade.

>She manages to pull herself together enough to pass on his final words
>"Do as you wish with my corpse, but please leave the castle staff with their lives."

Call GM on bullshit. Cite nazi officers working in concentration camps couldn't possibly be evil, their superiors were evil (following the logic of the current situation).

All she's done is communicate what he's said to the party.
Also why waste a Smite Evil on a noncombatant?

I attack her because she's obviously set up to be waifu bait which can be used to railroad me.

>what he actually said is "don't think you have won fools, my case will live on until even one of my minions is standing"

But user, if GM expected you would attack such waifu bait, aren't you getting yourself railroaded by attacking here?

Isn't that metagaming?

She is still working for a decidedly evil organization, thus she is supporting their endeavors and can be charged with multiple offenses. Look up modern nazi war crime trial strategy.

That's a good point. I'll make it my goal to hold hands and marry her. Bet the GM won't anticipate that!

We don't really know wether the BBEG in question is a cartoony villain or just someone that ended up opposed to the party due to differing ideals.

Yea, and she's still a waste of a Smite Evil.

Then I let my local law enforcement organization know the GM is a Nazi sympathizer. He'll have to be put on a watch list, and he'll be more careful of his behavior and thoughts in the future. Even if he's not, it's still best for an investigation just to be sure, for my and everyone else's safety.

But my paladin's God is a lawful neutral God of order! Lawyering this way should definitely work in my favor.

Wasn't that just people involved in the Final Solution? It was their actions in conjunction with working for Nazi Germany. An interpreter getting charged with crimes against humanity is a bit silly.

Yea, but you're still wasting a Smite Evil on a first-level Expert.

>He'll have to be put on a watch list,
Where do you live, the Caliphate of Germany?

But if smite evil doesn't work I can't sword her to death or else I'll become a shitty featless fighter while the wizard gets to keep all his powers no matter what he does.

Have you considered that she might be working under coercion?

Where do you live where being a Nazi sympathizer is illegal? Also this isn't necessarily Godwin's law but this damn close.

Then get the wizard to do it, or just arrest her and hand her off to the Inquisition or something.

Then you end up in a ditch with a bullet in the bak of your head.

It's, you know. Best for everyone.

Then have the GM fluff yourself as a spellsword, swordsage, or gestalt fighter/cleric.

Yes, actually. About a hundred and ten kilometers east of Stuttgart. I won't disrupt the thread anymore, but anything that could imply Nazi behavior should be reported.

So, I dunno, doing the mock "heil hitler" salute would get you thrown in jail for life?

Nördlingen?

>Yes, actually.
My condolences.

Good thing I'm the CN rogue. After we interrogate her I'll stab her and throw her out (read: through) a window. The party will agree that she was thrown out of the window by the BBEG during the fight and we found out all that information from scrolls in the BBEG's self-destruct enchanted study.

What a nigger your group is.

I'm stealing that idea.

/v/ you didn't give a fuck about that eight months ago

You know what they say. Black people are the only ones who get shit done.

You shoot the interpreter, who shoots the BBEG.

But censorship!

Yes they did. They've been bitching about it at least as far back as Bravely Default

I'm pretty sure people complaining about shitty dubs and translations since ever.

Is this a reference I'm missing?

apparently the lastes fire emblem got a weird censorship/shitty as hell localization

dunno much but i can tell you that the idiots that translated the thing are alergic to tittie jokes or references

Just the general shitshow that has been localization in the past few years, particularly on Nintendo of America's front

Bad localization has been a problem as long as games have been imported from other countries. It's just a lot easier to spot it nowadays due to the internet.

>particularly on Nintendo of America's front
>past few years

Shit nigger. They've always been pussies.

>weird censorship in imported games

Offer her double his rate to spill all the BBEG's secrets.

as much i liked the lastes advance wars game translation the suckers on the translator jumped on the memes are hip and cool train to hard

also they afraid of titty jokes or references, damnit

I'd report you. You're the one who brought the nazi business up. Normal people just don't talk about it.

And recently thrive done more than just cover up pantyshots and are actually stripping out game features and content. It's been getting even worse

Paladin falls for using smite on a lawful neutral entity
Roll new character

Nintendo actually fired the lady in charge of that crap who was happy that she could censor it.

Glad she's gone.

I bet the dude working in the cafeteria didnt go to jail for war crimes.

But I want a redemption arc!

She was a CM. ie Fucking no-one.

>This girls boobies are small, and she's jealous of the girl with the big boobies XD XD XD

God forbid we have less of that played out shit.

Using this, thanks.

>the BBEG is a lich and the interpreter is his phylactery

>This girls boobies are small, and she's jealous of the girl with the big boobies XD XD XD
Been in the middle of that in real life, it was kind of painful and kind of hilarious.
"But you told me before we're about the same size, can't you tell the difference, idiot?!"

Yeah, because UR MUH PICKLE PAL and dogespeak are so much better

No you haven't.
