Apocalypse basically gave up and said because he was discouraged by people here on NG.com. I don't see where that was though, the thread he posted about translation was met with a positive response.
Shit man.
I can't talk on behalf of Cory but I let him down by disappearing.
What happened was: he had split the work in 3 and we were to all translate our parts and merge. As you may know the translation process wasn't straight forward; there was a lot of rules to respect. We had to make sure the dialogue stayed in the restricted speech bubbles. It was a slow process.
I got busy with life and kept pushing the project to another day till it turned into a few weeks. Then I felt bad for not having contacted dude or doing any work so I thought I'd get some work done and come back with something, but I didn't. So a few months had passed and I felt so embarrassed that I just ghosted the forum altogether.
But this shit has been bothering me ever since. I've tried reaching out to Apocalypse over the years, but he wouldn't reply and to be honest I don't blame him.
So that's why I came back here, I want to make shit right. When I first came back a few days ago I PM'd him but he never replied so I also tried reaching out to him through his email and on his blog.
There was a lot of special symbols we needed to enter for punctuation and spaces so I am not even sure if the work I done before was viable or not. My intention was to get my part done but I NEED TO ASSURE that it fits into the rules he set.
I've tried reaching out to Cory as well, but haven't herd from bro in a few years as well.
I've reached out to Durandarte as well hoping we can help each other out.
Let's get this ball rolling.
