Olá, pessoal.

Preciso de ajuda para uma tradução adequada ao termo acima, no seguinte contexto:

It’s an amusing gimmick to add to a new genre, but it does little to change the way players interact with one another—when all the other Auto Chess-inspired games are already last-player-standing affairs, bolting the word ‘royale’ to the end of your title isn’t exactly revolutionary, especially when there isn’t a battle bus or blue circle in sight.

Obrigada,

Christina.

Explanation:
"—when all the other Auto Chess-inspired games are already last-player-standing affairs,"

a) quando [todo e qualquer jogo inspirado/todos os outros jogos inspirados] em xadrez automático já [premeia/premeiam], à partida, o último jogador em campo/de pé [/sobrevivente], [...]

b) quando o propósito de todo e qualquer jogo inspirado em xadrez automático já consiste em encontrar o último jogador em campo/de pé [ou /sobrevivente] [...]

c) quando o desfecho/resultado de todo e qualquer jogo inspirado em xadrez automático já é determinado consoante o último jogador em campo.

For context:
1 - "quando o título de vencedor de todo e qualquer jogo inspirado em xadrez automático já é, à partida, atribuído ao último jogador em campo/de pé, [...]
2 - "considerando que o título de vencedor de qualquer jogo inspirado em xadrez automático é, à partida, atribuído ao último jogador em campo / de pé, [...]


Dear Christina, in a way, the author notes that since the result/winner of an auto-chess inspired game is -- by default -- settled by whoever lasts (or survives) the longest (thus "last-man-standing"), adding the word "Royale" -- which pertains to a Genre defined by all-out survival battles between players -- is somewhat nonsensical. This notion is further bolstered if you consider that some of the that genre's staples (in this case, a bus/vehicle/care package from where you can take supplies from, or an ever-collapsing circle that restricts the area of play) are absent from this title's [Might & Magic: Chess Royale] overall "gameplay experience".

(is further bolstered if you consider that some that genre's*)

Small correction -- in the original text, said Battle Bus pertains to the vehicle that transports all players during the beginning of any said match in Fortnite, and not any and all care-package-like instances, such as the one I had in mind (Supply Ship from Apex Legends).

do gênero “último sobrevivente”


Explanation:
Oi, Christina! O termo se refere ao gênero ou estilo de jogo em que muitos jogadores iniciam a partida, ganhando o último jogador que restar. Vejo também o termo “battle royale” sendo usado para explicar esse tipo de jogo, mesmo em textos em português (jogos do estilo “battle royale”). No entanto, como o trecho faz referência justamente à palavra “royale”, sugeri outra tradução. Deixo também um link com explicação do gênero e exemplos de jogos. Espero que ajude, abs!
