I just read the thread more thoroughly and figured out that you're talking about Glum Buster. My bad.

Use associative arrays? text.english = { 'victory': 'VICTORY!', 'loss': 'I lost... D=' } text.japanese = { 'victory': '勝利!', 'loss': '道に迷って。。。 (ι´Д`)' }

I am doubting that this is actually useful. I feel that the wiki just needlessly replicates the topics in this subforum, except is more dated. On top of that, it is getting very few visitors. As such, I have taken the site down. Here are the files in case anyone wants them.

Moaning about the localisation not being the same as the one you fell in love with seems like typical gamer entitlement and a weird sense of ownership. Yyeess, being miffed with things you like becoming worse is definitely a sign of having a sense of ownership over them. Hey guys, let's all be completely happy about everything, because being unhappy with things means that you actually think that they're yours!

I doubt he's the friendly community-oriented type. A year ago I sent him an email politely asking for the song on the Cave Story website, to which he never replied.

I love how people are making a big deal about some changed dialogue. It's silly
It is not just about some changed dialogue. Despite the fact that they already had something perfect, they just took it and made it worse for seemingly no reason. Therefore it is not unreasonable to assume that there are more instances of the game being made worse for no reason.

Touching story, Soulliard.  Then, if you want/need extra coverage because your family has a history of cancer or what-have-you, and you can afford it, you get extra coverage from a healthcare insurance of your choice. I thought that this is how it has worked all along. The problem has been that the extra coverage in question is extra expensive, like in Soulliard's case. The regular, cheaper insurance companies refuse to cover people with expensive sicknesses, which is why their premiums are cheaper. However, the bill that passed will prevent insurance companies from dropping sick people, and this will make insurance more expensive for the average person, but more affordable for sick people. Forcing people to get insurance is a provision to have more money to spread around and therefore counteract the overall price increase. This will not be horrible for the poor, since lone people who make less than $44k or families that make less than $88k will get tax credits; the poorer the person/family, the larger the tax credit. This is how I understand it, anyway, I may be very wrong and would appreciate any corrections. If what I'm saying adds up, you are in fact asking for less socialized health care?
