The crew at Push-To-Talk interview Jeremy Blaustein, the translator of the original Metal Gear Solid for Playstation. Blaustein talks about the difficulties of being a translator, his work on several Konami titles, and his interactions with the Kojima team.
Special thanks to the PTT podcast crew and Jeremy Blaustein.
@MatticusFinch1820 Kojima trashed him, so expect it.

MGS2's story is total TRAAASH. Agree 100% with Jeremy lol

Haha, fuck MGS2. Jeremy may be bitter about not getting to work on the subsequent games, but as far as I'm concerned, his name is attached to Kojima's very best ones. That being Snatcher and MGS1. How much of those variables have to do with Blaustein's translation and Kojima himself, I'll never know. But I don't think any translator could've saved MGS2. I guarantee he would have been a great service to MGS3, though.

MGS 2 is definetly the weakest entry and my least favorite but this guy sounds awfully bitter towards Kojima, even though he makes some good points..
