One of the things I love about my job is learning new things every day. Today I’m researching gender-free language for a game I’m localising where one of the characters is non-binary #gameloc #l10n

Second videogame I’m localising in the space of a month where one of the characters is non-binary. This title is really cool as well but as always my lips are sealed 🤫😉 #thingsarechanging #gameloc

It’s the 19th May and I have received my first translation about Christmas gifts this year. Is this a record?

Seen this shared this week, and it couldn’t ring any truer now, as I embark on a big project that nobody will ever know I localised (thanks NDA). It’s usually agencies though, when I work directly with developers they credit me, and sometimes I even get a free copy of the game

Is it even Friday if every email doesn’t contain the word “urgent”?
