Digital
Wordsmithing was formed in an effort to curb the typos, mistaken
slang, and grammatical errors in today's videogames. Even the most
experienced companies can overlook something as simple as comma
placement, making that multimillion dollar title seem a little less
refined. Those wanting to crack the English-speaking North American
market are already in for a daunting task, but those who are looking
to make a name for themselves with their latest adventure or strategy
game can feel a little more relaxed knowing that their title will
be given the care it deserves to be presented in the way it should
be.
From console
to PC, no company is safe from the random slip-up in their game
or confusion in their manuals. Whether it is a text-heavy role-playing
game or a real-time strategy title with numerous unit explanations,
we have all experienced confusion or annoyance at one time another,
and our goal is to eliminate them in our client's titles.
By using an
"expanding" employment format that involves hiring editors
and artists when needed, Digital Wordsmithing is able to pass
the savings in overhead to our clients. This style is used in
tandem with our focus on editing. While recognizing the abilities
of our clients' employees, Digital Wordsmithing is able to provide
a polished product at a fraction of the cost. Our clients provide
a rough translation of the text and we provide what is needed
for their work to be as natural to an English-speaking audience
as though it were created natively in that language. Clients also
have control over how much will be changed, and they can use their
employees to implement the changes. By not acting in a programming
or translation role, Digital Wordsmithing is able to charge far
less than localization studios. Clients combine their talents
with ours in order to bring English-speaking territories the title
the way it's meant to be seen.
With years
in the industry, our editors know how to approach products in
order to make them desirable to different segments of the market.
Regardless of the genre your product falls into, Digital Wordsmithing
can give your work the attention it deserves.
