>tfw getting stoned and playing Yakuza
Dame da ne

I hate druggies too, but this seems a bit extreme. Is it really worth shutting down all the work the programmers and other actors did because of one guy's retardation? Let's not even get into the fact that this game will probably get delayed in the west now. Sega should have just cut all ties to him, and refused to ever work with him again. I mean he might end up going to prison anyway, so it's not like he won't face any sort of punishment.

Japan is insanely strict when it comes to drug crime enforcement.

>insanely
Fucker deserves capital punishment.

I smoked weed for the western launch of Yakuza 5, Kiwami, Kiwami 2 and 0

It's legacy laws from when the Brits drowned China in opium. Japan is super strict about drugs largely because of the Opium wars.

Yakuza are too hororabru to do drugs, that shit's for the triad chinks and gooks.

Name a country that has been negatively effected by legalizing drugs.

literally all of them

>make a game trying to sanitize the image of drug dealers and murderers

Japan is retarded enough, they don't need drugs.

USA, they still haven't recovered from the twenty-first ammendment.

I don't see Portugal descending into chaos, nor The Netherlands.

>willing to throw away millions on millions of dollars because an actor did a thing actors do
Its almost commendable how steadfast they hold to their principles. No one in the west would throw away money over muh morals muh honor.

drugs are chaos of the mind

Meaningless platitude.

So if I became prime minister of Japan and I snorted some coke would they have to shut down the country and ban exports?

BRB guys, gonna put some shoe polish into my hair and learn enough Japanese to say JAPAN NUMBER ONE BEST ELDERS, and also buy some coke.

You're right, Japan is just fine sticking the used panties over their heads while they hang themselves in a forest.

i like that this story makes druggie losers seethe to no end

>live in Cucknada
>druggies insist that they are harmless and lolifags hurt children
>drug wars literally got children shot and killed here

You know what's silly? When we were doing drugs we were also far more Christian, far more conservative, and far more moral. It's almost like drugs won't destroy society, it's almost like drugs have nothing to do with societal values and principals.

I just wish we could return to a more middle age way of doing things, where people could snort or smoke what they wanted and thieves lost their fucking hands.

But anime taught me that the Yakuza is more like your neighbourhood watch than a crime syndicate.

Why are you aurprised that Sega is being retarded?They nearly went bankrupt due to their own incompetence, bowed out of the console race entirely and continuously let Western developers walk all over them (Gearbox, Bioware) and flat out steal from them.
The retardation is in their veins at this point.

>excessive drinking can kill you but it is okay in moderation
>excessive tobacco can kill you and while not recommended due to lasting effects you are able to smoke multiple times and be generally fine
>marijuana has no known lasting effects aside from possible small effects on your brain that haven’t been fully studied

>cocaine in any amount can kill you at any time and the first hit will almost definitely cause addiction as it immediately stops your brain from producing its own dopamine
>crack cocaine is worse because it can destroy your organs

Cocaine addicts fuck off of this board and either seek help or just kill yourself to save time before it kills you.

Calls attention more attention to the case thereby causing more damage to the brand and negatively impacts sales. More than likely an recommendation from the government, as well.

>am i good boy? please give me good boy points!

study that goes for marijuana is straight up propaganda
its more addictive and literally ruins the brain
alcohol isnt good and should be banned
smoking isnt good and should be banned

more children were killed/affected with drug wars and related crimes than kids molested by otakus

If you ban drugs nobody will do them.

nah you just gonna delete people that do

pathetic

>wow sega shouldnt be allowed to take action against some druggie that they hired
>wow you dont like drugs fuck you government fag no freedom

Drug cartels only exist as a direct result of prohibition. None of this violence happened before the war on drugs started.

yeah and murderers only exist because we label them like that and dont like them doing it
we need to stop all crime by not caring lol you probably wont get killed anyways haha

>>marijuana has no known lasting effects aside from possible small effects on your brain that haven’t been fully studied
Except for potentially causing irreperable psychosis and schizophrenia with no way of knowing that you're susceptible until it's too late.

As an american, that sounds silly as fuck.

But whatever, I doubt it'll affect it's western release much.

They also kicked that one actor off yakuza 4's rerelease because he was accused of using drugs, even though he was found innocent.

Fucking dumb. But that's there entertainment industry I guess.

>They also kicked that one actor off yakuza 4's rerelease because he was accused of using drugs, even though he was found innocent.
Did they rerecord his lines as well? Fuck me no wonder he left the industry, what a fucking crock.

Violent cartels can form because drugs are illegal so acquiring and marketing them is a precarious endeavor. Without prohibition cartels have no reason to exist, just as they didn't before the drug war started. But it's okay because we need to protect society from itself by implementing restrictions on personal freedom that do the exact opposite.

.

Will developers ever abandon face/body scanning and motion capture?

yakuza do meth all the time dude

>Adults shouldn't be allowed to imbibe into their bodies what they want to! It's WRONG! REEEEEEEE!
Lawdy lawdy, ya'll be so right. Need to get us another prohibition going here.

Fake news, chankoro

>It's almost like drugs won't destroy society
Rampant drug use fucking kills the productivity of a society with extremely few exceptions.
And yeah that's not even restricted to common or hard drugs. Rampant alcoholism has similar effects.
But the whole idea of "drugs don't harm society!" is just ridiculous. In the past drugs have been strategically used to rise above neighbouring societies or even civilizations. It works because drugs actually do harm society.

What's worse is that other people are being punished for a personal decision, however poor, that effected one person.

You know in Japan they can just kick a drug user out of the emergency department, they don't treat them for anything

Unlike shit hole America where we are obligated to take care of these assholes

>Drug cartels only exist as a direct result of prohibition.
No. Drug cartels exist because there is market. Even if there was an official market for legal drugs you'd still have drug cartels because there would even in such a scenario, be money to be made.

>They also kicked that one actor off yakuza 4's rerelease because he was accused of using drugs, even though he was found innocent.
They got rid of Tanimura's original appearance because he quit the acting business and they wouldn't be able to get his likeness again so they went for the simpler option of simply recasting him instead of tracking the guy down and hoping he lets them use his likeness again. It's not because of the scandal.

Would they exist on this scale or be nearly as dangerous? Not likely.

>As an american, that sounds silly as fuck.
As an european it sounds silly as fuck to be shot in a mass shooting, yet here we are.

They would exist the same way yokels that sell moonshine to teens exist.

In the United States they kick you out if you can't pay $2000 to have a bandaid applied.

Happens all the time in Japan. Doesn't make sense. It's like prosecuting a murderer's entire family, his coworkers, the grocery clerk he talked to last week because of what he did.

Hey I'm playing Yakuza 2 right now, when can I start playing mahjong?

If Japan legalized drugs the insane work culture would drive literally all men and most women into addictions and the country would fall apart.

lol, China deserves it though.

Why is that shota in the toilet with a loli?

dame yo

as a human you should encourage your fellow citizen to stay away from bad lifestyles like alcohol and drugs

Isn't Yakuza entirely about worshiping criminals?

no
its dramatizing them

>wow sega shouldnt be allowed to take action against some druggie that they hired

They aren't taking any action against the druggie. They are taking action against game fans. The guy already got his paycheck, whatever the game ships or not means nothing to him.

Nope. The Tojo Clan extorts people, occasionally kills (Though prefers not to because of the hassle), and has fingers in the police and government pies, but it doesn't do drug dealing or human trafficking outside of random guys who end up doing it on the side who either get reprimanded or Kiryu beats the hell out of them. Even then it constantly brings up how murder is an awful thing, every time the yakuza are involved in something it shows they're assholes who extort people and ruin lives, human trafficking is constantly shown in an awful light and everyone involved in it is usually homeless or part of the dregs of society being abused by either the yakuza, triads, or mafia, the underlings are always shown to be power-hungry assholes, and in general it constantly makes it out to be an awful life as shown in Majima, Saejima, Kiryu, and Akiyama's lives. The former three are nearly killed every time, Kiryu is constantly pulled back in even after he's gotten out with people constantly trying to kill him or his loved ones, people are always betraying or trying to kill each other over a position, and in Akiyama's situation his life gets ruined constantly by people inside the yakuza or people who hate Sky Finance in general.

It glorifies certain people like Daigo (Who runs the Tojo Clan) and Majima (Who owns Kamuro Hills), but overall the message is "This is an awful life, these are awful people, and you don't want to get involved in this business or your life may be ruined".

Drugs aren't legal in Portugal.
People who use drugs simply cannot be prosecuted because they are considered to be addicts and have mental illnesses.
They are treated as sick people who need help.
The people who can and will be prosecuted are the dealers/producers/importers of the drugs. Those are punished to the highest extent of the law.

Why do media companies prevent sales of their products because of a controversy involving one of their actors/etc? Is it because the person involved would make royalty money or..? The product is done, it's already been shipped some, what does stopping it do? Genuinely curious.

penis inspection day.

Depends on how the crime is viewed by people and its impact on PR. Let's say Nathan Drake's voice actor was literally caught raping babies and burning puppies. That would probably put Sony in a bad light if they just sold the games as usual.

I do, but not so often

im surprised you survived

These virtue signaling knee-jerk reactions from companies dont impress me at all.
In the end they only ruin the work of rest of tens or hundreds of people who worked on the game.

Nobody thinks drinking alone in your room is a normal thing. Nobody thinks drinking specifically to kill yourself is normal. The only push I got was knowing that I did not want to feel the way I felt and alcohol was the only drug I could feasibly acquire. If I wasn't so riddled with anxiety I would've just bought heroin and made my suicide fast instead of my current one of alcohol withdrawal induced seizures. I'm at the point I just tell the paramedics "give me the form saying I'm ignoring your medical advice and I'll be on my way".
