I have to say, you're one of the most appreciative creators I've ever had the pleasure of translating a game for. You seemed genuinely excited when I offered to translate For Amerta into French, and the art you drew for me was perfect. So please don't feel bad and don't be so harsh on yourself. I can tell that you truly care about both translations and translators. You always took the time to answer my questions and did your best to help whenever I needed it. I can only speak for myself, since I don't know how the other translators feel, but simply accepting my translation meant a lot to me. I often  get no reply from developers, so your enthusiasm and support really made me happy.  As for the compensation, I never expected anything. I know that most creators on itch make their games as passion projects. That's the case for me as well, translating free visual novels is something I do because I genuinely enjoy it. I only translate games that I truly love, and being able to let French-speaking players play some of my favorite indie games is already more than enough for me.

So thank you for being such a great person and good luck for your personal life!

Hello Hugo! Your words truly made my day, thank you so much and I’m really so happy to hear that you enjoyed working with For Amerta and with me! I’m extremely thankful for your insight as well, as it makes me able to understand your perspective better. I guess both creators and translators are all alike in which they just want to do something they love…

But to flip the script, thank you so much for all you’ve done, not just for my game but also with others! Translations are, in the end of the day, the reason we can reach more people in the world. Thank you for pouring your love into the games you translate and please know that I’ve always appreciated your work for For Amerta!

Good luck with your endeavors and I wish you nothing but the best!!!
