Italian community of Eternal I need your help
Ragazzi ho bisogno di voi e della vostra conoscenza. Per curiosità stavo guardando la traduzione in Italiano delle carte, ed alcune di esse non hanno senso oppure possono essere perfezionate. Per adesso ho compilato una lista delle carte (Mono Fuoco,Tempo,Giustizia e Neutrali) che secondo me potrebbero essere rinominate. All'interno del documento ci sono i nomi usati adesso, i nomi da me suggeriti ed un mio parere sul perchè debba cambiare. Se vi sembra una buona idea continuerò fino alla fine e magari,dopo aver completato tutto, potrei inviare la lista a Scarlatch o a chi per lui. Vi prego di darmi il vostro parere e di consigliarmi alcune modifiche se vi vengono in mente
Guys I need your help and your knowledge. Out of curiosity I was watching the Italian translation of the cards, and some of them either don't make sense or can be refined. I have made a list of the cards (Mono Fire,Time,Justice and Neutral) that in my opinion could be renamed. Inside the doc are the current names, the names I suggest, and why I think they should be changed. If that seems a good idea to you I will continue till the end and maybe, after everything is completed, I can send the list to Scarlatch or to someone else for him. Please give me your opinion and advise me some changes if you have some.

P.S. English People, Cabal here is used as the name of the gang or just to indicate that they are part of a gang?

u/scarlatch-dwd would be interested in the list. Contact him or maybe he'll respond and say he's printed off the list.
Thank you, definitely going to do it when it is finished
It might be kind of tough ... but I would write your reasons for the changes in English, as well ... so that Scarlatch understands them, and so that the the translators understand. I'm not sure if their translators are native English speakers who know Italian, or native Italian speakers who know English. At least in English, Scarlatch can make a determination if your reasoning is sound.
I Google translated some of your reasons, and Google translates them remarkably well ... but Scarlatch might not have the time to Google Translate them all.
Yeah, I thought that too
As someone who works in games localisation, if the translation was done professionally (i.e. commissioned by DWD) the translators are most likely to be native speakers of their respective languages.
That doesn't mean that they get all references or contexts, nor even that they actually (have time to) look at the game, and that's usually where localisation QA comes in (which is what I do). But sometimes smaller companies don't have budget for that...
Could possibly check the credits if they did actually have loc QA.
On a semi related note, my company provides reasonable rates for localisation QA for all major languages (also: translation). :P
