Zone of Games forum - a living center for the community of game translators in Russian

Here, on the zoneofgames forum. ru, as if a real cauldron of enthusiasm, technology and love for games had come to life. Not just a site, but an entire micro-municipality, where each participant is a separate brain working for a common cause: to make game worlds accessible to those who speak Russian. Yes, of course, there are other platforms, but this forum is special. He doesn't try to be everything to everyone. No, he wants to be exactly the place where you can find not just a cracker, but the history of its creation, discussions, disputes over sound quality, experiences when working on files.

People don’t gather here for clicks or advertising. They are here because they want to. Because they see more in the localization process than just replacing text. This is art, this is work, this is almost a spiritual practice. Even the name Zone of Games is already a hint that there are not just games here, but a space where new experiences of perceiving digital worlds are born. It all starts with one question: What if we did it our way?

The community is divided into teams, each with its own personality, its own philosophy. There are studios that operate officially - for example, Eloquence Studio, Designer Teamor REDteam. Their sections look like headquarters - with messages, release dates of new projects, links to progress. And there are those who operate from underground, so to speak, without cracks in the mask. For example, emTolma4 Team T4Tem, which became famous for its Telltale Games translations. Or emFailing Forwardem, which specializes in console translations. Each of them is a separate world within the common one.

What exactly happens on the forum?

Imagine a huge room where everyone talks about their project, but at the same time listens to others. Here you can find a discussion of opening game resources - yes, such things also exist. Not just hacked the game, but a deep analysis of the file structure, searching for keys, checking bits. It's almost engineering. And right next to it there are disputes over how best to convey the humor of the hero from Metal Gear Solid Delta. Or why the word apocalypse should be replaced not with apocalypse, but with something more natural for the Russian ear.

There are even broadcasts! Yes, yes, not only texts. Events that take place in real time: film screenings, news premieres, debuts of new versions. For example, [a film show] on Knowledge Day with the film Faculty - and this is not an advertisement, but a live event in the life of the community. People gather, read posts, write comments, sometimes they just sit and remain silent because they understand each other without words.

• Here they work on the localization of games like Psychonauts 2, Like a Dragon Kiwami, Wolfenstein: The Old Blood
• Particular attention is paid to the quality of voice acting - after all, the translation is not only text, but also voices
• A lot of attention is paid to classic adventure games through the Prometheus Project
• There is a section for discussing localizations, where you can find everything - from old versions to current ones patches

Who is behind all this?

It’s hard to say. There are no obvious leaders or companies. Only people. Those who write posts, those who check, those who raise funds - like, for example, Cool-Games, which raised money for the voice acting of Metal Gear Solid Delta. This is not a corporation. This is movement. Or better said, an ecosystem where each element is needed by another.

I wonder how many such forums still exist? Well, maybe a few. But this one is alive. He's breathing. You can read a post made an hour ago and immediately understand that the process is underway. That this is not an archive, but a current event. Articles, news, competitions - all this is part of one big stream.

Well, if suddenly something was wrong, then it would already be ERROR. But not yet. And that means the forum continues to live. As it should. As people who love games more than money can do.
