>Human trafficking is... le goodWhat a bizarre message for a videogame.
>>3685762But she didn't traffic them. Those girls were born in Japan and grew up in Japan. They don't even speak Korean
>>3685766The Yakuza series portrays prostitution (and organized crime and homelessness) in a romantic manner but the reality is that many if not most prostitutes in are drug-addicted illegal immigrants who are kept in line by violent pimps.
>>3685766You're wrong.
>>3685782It literally said they were second or third generation immigrant.
>>3685814Sexually exploiting undocumented workers is still an example of human trafficking.
>>3685762>>3685778Jap writers aren't people you want to look to for teachings on Morality
if the government is corrupt then citizenship doesn't mean anything. It's like youtubers who decide that some of their viewers are a community while others are not.
>>3685762I'm pretty sure what she's saying is, "At least I can keep them out of a worse situation, unlike a lot of brothels out there".>>3685778>but the reality is that many if not most prostitutes in are drug-addicted illegal immigrants who are kept in line by violent pimps.That tends to only be the case in third-world countries and places where prostitution is illegal and thus the prostitute has no labor laws protecting them.
>>3685848>That tends to only be the case in third-world countries and places where prostitution is illegal and thus the prostitute has no labor laws protecting them.How can an illegal immigrant be protected by labor laws?
>>3685850There's actually several laws that protect workers regardless of their legal status. It's not like the system doesn't know those people are working there, crackdowns usually only happen for publicity's sake because the reality is the government doesn't want to damage their own economy in that way.
>>3685852Think practically though. If you are an illegal immigrant whose movements are controlled and you don't even speak the local language how likely are you to go to the police?
>>3685821i don't think you should be looking for morality lessons from anyone writing for video games or movies or genre fiction
>>3685861>Take the treasure?>Times are tough
>>3685782a second generation illegal alien is an illegal alien
>>3685778Most normal people don't end up as prostitutes- usually life took a wrong turn somewhere.
"Illegal immigrants are good as long as they bring the food and sex workers" is a universal sentiment among liberals, yes.
>>3685881If the government is corrupt, their legal definitions aren't anything to go by
>>3685762We need more hello saar helping managers hands oke ya
>>3685919What anon said is actually the norm in the world.
>>3685919Fuck off. The vast majority of countries do not have birthright citizenship, nor should they. It is a horrible policy that devalues citizenship wholesale.
>>3686428Valuing citizenship is pretty retarded. Withholding, as corrupt governments do, doesn't make it special to the one's that have it. They'll see what it's worth and move to other countries to acquire dual citizenship. Why would they do that unless their government doesn't function? If their laws offer punishment rather than protect, you're not a citizen; you're cattle.
>>3686428To be fair your US citizenship doesn't give you any benefits.In Europooristan everyone gets healthcare, social security and a house.
>>3685778>>3685762>>3685816if you were concerned about the wellbeing of undocumented workers then you would support making them citizens.
>>3686516>Be responsible by making other people responsible. That's called passing the buck
>>3685762fuck off Elon.
>>3685762It should be noted that what she's doing is not the norm, she's trying to keep a roof over the head of girls who have nowhere else to go? Is she a saint? Fuck no, they're still having sex for money, but that's why it's called a gray zone.>>3685778The vast VAST majority of prostitutes in Japan are Japanese girls. I've partaken enough to know that.>>3685881Where do they go? There's no country to send them back to, they have no citizenship. They're stateless.
>>3686516That would just encourage more human trafficking. Look at the US, it's a whole industry now because they encourage it.
>>3687149They wouldn't be trafficked if those barriers that made it an option to traffic didn't exist in the first place.
>>3687189Are you advocating for open borders?
>>3687149>Yakuza>Human Trafficking Ring (lit: Slave-Trade Club)Maybe stay on topic.
>>3687223What are you saying? Human trafficking is a major theme in LAD.
>>3687207Everyone deserves the equal opportunity to murder children. They shouldn't be forced to live out their lives in this evil fascist world.
>>3687189laughed the fat controller, you are wrong.jpg.
>>3686592>Where do they go? There's no country to send them back to, they have no citizenship. They're stateless.not our problem. we are also a captured people, we have no interest in obeying pyramid schemes that only benefit the rich while impoverishing us. there needs to be an end to the rewarding of the trafficked human to citizenship pipeline.
>>3685762>Human traffickingI thought they were Koreans?
Yakuza writing is trash in general. Y7 and 8 are basically just reskinned Trails games in terms of writing.
>>3688440You're right, Trails is weirdly pro-crime too. In Daybreak Calvard is basically controlled by a triad and it's portrayed as a good thing.
>>3688440Y6 is already anything, but a yakuza game.3 can't compete with 1 and 2, but was comfy at heart.
>>3685762The combat in YLAD is probably the worst turn-based combat i have ever experienced.
>>3688553You haven't played many jrpgs I see.
Even though the plot of 4 was batshit, irritating and convoluted, I was willing to look past it. Then I got to Mirror Face in 7 and realised this series is really fucking badly written sometimes. Fucking mirror face, man. I have no idea why people don't shit on that, it's like a meme sidestory thing shoved into a massively important moment in the finale.
>>3688785I play Yakuza for the goofy humor and fun gameplay. I couldn't care less about te story since 3.
>>3686508>Valuing citizenship is pretty retardedYou need to get your throat cut.
>>3689102he's probably from one of those countries where that's statisticall likely to happen if you go out after sunset all alone
>>3689102Are you indian? I have noticed indians tend to post this type of violent post for some reason. No humour/lols, just pure vitriolic anger.
>>3685762Yeah the messaging of so much of this game is laughable. Also how are the mini games of infinite wealth? This one has pretty much the worst mini games of any game ive ever played and was hoping the next one is better.
Have you considered that perhaps 50 year old game devs that get jerked off by enslaved Chinese prostitutes are... le good???
>>3685861>genre fiction >not a good place to seek morality I hate to be the one to break this to you, but that’s how 99.9% of people are morally inspired.
>>3689574I was thinking the same thing. The writers are probably trying to justify their own fondness for prostitutes by insisting it isn't immoral.
>>3690047Don't forget the kimchi and peking duck.
>>3685762The Wackyban games are so fucking bad. Awful stories, shit gameplay, shit characters and probably the worst MC ever.
>>3685762The entire game series is all about organized crime. This is like if you were surprised there was murder in a game called Gang Violence Simulator 2024.
>>3690575The Yakuza games never defended murder or theft the way they defend prostitution in 7. The closest comparison might be the heroic corrupt cop in 4.
>>3689067>I play Yakuza for the goofy humor and fun gameplay. I couldn't care less about te story since 3.You're the faggot the Ichicuck games are made for and why we have them.
>>3685778>Yakuza is so cool>meanwhile, irlItalian-American wasn't as bad, and never was glamourized as much in the American media.
>>3691039>never was glamourized as much in the American mediaThis was the Jewish mafia deflecting attention from their crimes and projecting it into others
>>3690589Prostitution has always been treated lightly in the series.
>>3691522This isn't just prostitution, this is explicitly sex trafficking. And it's not just the prostitutes who are treated sympathetically, the pimp is treated sympathetically too.
>>3690605Cry more
>>3685778That's just not true, prostitutes are the samurai of today and organized crime are ninjas.
