What’s the difference between the “Hollow Knight” and “Silksong” versions mentioned above? Clearly the Silksong Chinese text is longer. Also the retranslated English text is missing the core points from the original English text.
the so called "artistic choice" by the translators clearly diverges from the original writer's artistic choices in a way that audiences perceive it as negative
It's great to hear from a trusted authority that the translation is perfect. I'm sure the Chinese will be happy to hear that their concerns are baseless
