Assuming they start the process shortly after release, It really shouldn't take like 10-11 plus months or something to translate this game. That's way too long for an RPG and TLS doesn't really seem super hugely gigantic for it to take that long really (average localization process for an RPG is like 6 months?). They could definitely get it out this year if they don't wait forever to start localizing it.

Didn't they give some large number for the lines of dialogue contained in the game? I think you're underestimating the effort that would be required.
|
It was 12,000 lines...but I read on GAF that isn't actually as big as it sounds. Games like Mass Effect and the next Deus Ex have way more (Deus Ex has like 200k lines lol).

Actually, it's 18,000. 200k is about the number of words.
200k lines would be approximately 250 hours of spoken dialogue.

So crunching the numbers, 18k comes out to roughly 22.5 hours, correct? That's still pretty hefty!
