This isn't Mario, which has almost no text, or Kirby that only has text in a few places that many don't read. Starfy has a good amount of text and even some menu-ing.

In general, people praise DeepL for having more natural-sounding translations and doing better with local idioms and slang. That is, DeepL is a little better at translating the actual meaning and tone of content, rather than just word-for-word translations that might technically be correct, but still sound a bit awkward or lack context.

      @@gelgel4823 I mean yeah, DeepL is definitely better than Google Translate, but even then it's not ideal for actual localization use. The process of a proper localization requires the experience of a person who is familiar with both cultures (not just both languages) and knows how to get a similar feeling in the localization that the original intended. A lot of planning to make sure key phrases are consistent and that unique wordplay can be interpretted if possible. You need to be an entire person to properly localize, not just a program that associates things with eachother. Especially if you're trying to keep the charm of character writing instead of just flattening it out into how most people would say a line.
