    [list
    [li]New dialogue (even required if they're keeping faithful to the original, as there are a fair number of issues even in the original Japanese version that they'd need to fix)[/li]
    [li]New translations[/li]
    [/list]

    Or they could jusst take DPLB & Luksy's retranstaltion project and take that off the list that would certainly speed things up :D[/list]

    Even the Japanese dialogue would be different though. Probably not significantly so, but there were a few things they'd change to clarify, or to match engine changes (for example, tutorial stuff).

    Not to mention, some of the retranslation stuff focuses on accuracy over convention, but S-E would almost certainly try to match their established conventions instead. For example, they'd use the same spell-naming scheme they use in damn near all of their English-language releases, even though it's not as accurate a translation.

    If they used their brains, they wouldn't have kept the hogwash canon in the first place...and even Malboro has changed...  They used Morbol in XI (morbol is possibly correct, malboro is not)... it is a symptom of trying to keep all these insane inaccuracies.. you just get inconsistency.

    And certainly dialogue wise, I think our translation holds up overall.. it does use a lot of Michael Baskett's original material.  It would certainly save them time.. 'course, they won't bother.  Covarr is also correct that they would change the story.

    I await the day Genesis is shoe horned into the main story of VII original.
