The Villainess’ Guide Chapter 37

New Chapter!

It has become increasingly clear these days so I’ll just come out and say it;

Yes, I do use ChatGPT to assist with my translation. I have been using ChatGPT to help me with my work for a while now, not just translating, but in proofreading as well. It is a pretty handy tool but it does have its own quirks and weird habits. Not that human is any different in that regards anyway. I have been working with several translators and I noticed everyone has their own unique habits in writing.

But I digress, back to the topic at hand, I’ve been letting slip many obvious signs such as the gender pronouns, the names, and heck, I even included the prompt in the last chapter. What this tells me is that maybe doing 5 chapters per day is too much as my attention span wanes and allows more error to slip through. I’ll try to keep adjusting though and try to find the right balance between quality and quantity.

The Villainess’ Guide Chapter 34

New Chapter!

I’ve actually already translated up to Chapter 40, but I’m trying to test scheduling only 2 chapters per day. Should I have published everything as soon as I finish translating the chapter? Or should I only stick to 2 chapters/day? It’s not like it makes much difference anyway, since I don’t have an editor to help me proofread the chapters.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 1046 Part 1

New Chapter!
So OffKai dropped Nijisanji.
Laughing so hard at the replies to the tweet, Nijisanji is famous for taking eons to respond to things, and the fans are angry that the convention took a while to respond to things.

Yeah the decision was made two weeks ago and only announced today. But you know what.
The decision to do something and getting all the paperwork done are totally different, they would have had contracts and things in place with Niji that would need to be closed, and any compensation or other details would have needed confirming.
Just because I decided to buy insurance today doesn’t mean it would be done tomorrow!

Anyway, Nijisanji reputation is truly down the drain now, it’s effecting their talents ability to operate.

Demon Sword Maiden Chapter 1045

New Chapter!
I can’t believe that a couple of people in a discord server try to lecture me on running Dungeons and Dragons because I said that you couldn’t have a Warforged in the context of Faerun. Which is Forgotten Realms. The one Baldurs Gate is set in.

That’s… an experience.
Also one of them had the weirdest take on it all.

Who needs class identity apparently? A cleric doesn’t need a god, warlocks don’t need patrons, sorcerers can get powers from whatever they want!
Are you even playing those classes if you strip the class identity? What benefit do you get stripping a class down to its numerical functions?

Some of the stuff they brought up was fine, like firearms fitting into the setting. Yeah that’s not strictly by the book but it makes sense in the setting.
But I just cannot understand their logic with the rest, it’s like they have a total disconnect between the function of the mechanical rules and the flavour of lore. Instead of seeing how they’re meant to feed into each other.

I’m all for customising your setting, but it seems weird to take something so integral to the history of the Realms and chop it out, when it would be easier to adapt one of the many other settings, or just homebrew their own.
