Why are you people trying to discourage TC from learning a language? It doesn't matter what his motivation is. Learning Japanese is a valuable skill that can have many different applications beyond his initial goal of playing untranslated games.
Learning Japanese is really, really hard. The investment needed to play untranslated games is going to be thousands of hours delving into a language that likely bears little resemblance to TC's native tongue. This isn't like being an English speaker and trying to learn Spanish or German. Everyone just wants to spare TC the frustration of "wasting" his time in the unlikely pursuit of becoming essentially fluent.
Just stick to fan translations and games where reading isn't super important. One of my friends always imports music games (like Hatsune Miku and the Persona dancing games) because the meat of those is in the gameplay and not the text.
lmao gtfo here german language is harder than japanese one
