Disclaimer
This project is not intended to discredit the official English localization or argue against localization itself. It’s simply a passion project, allowing me to play the game with the original Japanese audio while ensuring the English subtitles align with it—without sacrificing natural English phrasing.
Additionally, this mod only focuses on dialogue. UI elements such as item descriptions, button names, and quest objectives remain unchanged.
