Could anyone give me a one-sentence summary on the difference between emulators and translation layers?

Looks great, insta-wishlisted! Just waiting for the next Steam sale (or for quarantine to drive me crazy, whatever happens first).

Does this mean the game will be ported to Linux or it could Stadia just be planning on running it under Wine?

Ooo, I'd love to have one to play with my family. Unfortunately the English edition is a no-go for most of them. :(
