Italian term

le corporazioni

Italian to English Other Games / Video Games / Gaming / Casino sci fi video game about warriors, strange creatures, magic and potions etc
Here is a quick explanation about 'le corporazioni'. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
(The Guilds??)

Le corporazioni, nel gioco, sono le scuole dove uno può effettuare la classazione. Per classazione si intende il conseguimento di una classe di specializzazione. La classazione è il momento del gioco in cui l'utente passa dalla classe viandante a quella di guerriero, mago, chierico o cacciatore. All'interno delle corporazioni ci sono i maestri che ti insegnano il modo di combattere della relativa classe.

TIA!

@Phil Yes "It says they're schools," but it calls them something else, something very medieval to add flavour and depth to the story telling in the game, so clearly you really do need another term.
Amanda Jane Lowles (asker) Jul 23, 2011:
Guilds/ clans would both fit the context better. For example, I would tend to associate the term DRAGON WARRIOR with a guild/ clan rather than a school.
philgoddard Jul 22, 2011:
It's not out of context at all - it has teachers who teach you how to fight, so it seems the obvious translation.
Amanda Jane Lowles (asker) Jul 22, 2011:
Well I can see your point but the word 'schools' would seem out of context, any other suggestions??
philgoddard Jul 22, 2011:
It says they're schools, so why not call them that? Otherwise you're introducing an extra piece of terminology for no particular reason.

guilds

Premettendo che non sono madrelingua inglese, mi sono dedicata ad una breve ricerca in rete. Come traduzione di "corporazione", ho trovato il termine "guild": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guild che in italiano corrisponde più esattamente a "corporazioni delle arti e dei mestieri", antiche associazioni per la tutela di talune attività professionali.

E' un'idea, spero ti sarà utile.

ciao!

Why gamers join clans
Joining a clan places one within a social network which provides access to resources, knowledge, and help needed to accomplish many game related goals. In addition, banding together with like-minded players seems to fulfill a human desire for social interaction. Taken together, these two factors can vastly enhance the gameplay experience of many players.

neutral James (Jim) Davis : Clans is all about extended families, which is not the case at all here.
