Dude, there's a thousand manga and anime that are far worse released every day, and they all get translated for American sales.. The Gal Gun type games as well. There's nothing in the story that makes it hard to release here, and would be very easy to change the age she went to the brothel if it did matter that much. 

 

Like a Dragon is litlerally about a guy who grew up in a brothel. 

 

As long as they aren't showing actual child pornography, it's a nothing burger. 

Oh shit, like seriously? Wow you have open my eyes to what goes down in japan.... :pikachu:

 

It does not matter what you think is acceptable, It's what sega is willing to risk and the story of the game is one sega does not want to localize. I've actually played the game (still own it) and can see why it's not going to happen (i'm a long time fan of the series since ps2).

Oh they are 100% fine with the totally obscure, never heard of before Japanese celebs. But these NA e-celebs? Game's runt.

Even further if you cut out any of the hostess they will burn your house down (but lets ignore that they're based on real people/celebs in japan and the company runs auditions to be selected). :whistlin:

He drove his fishing boat there so he knows all the underground deets

 On that subject (and onto a tangent), Tokyo Lens/norm has some pretty cool videos of taking a boat around the waters going though tokyo that you don't get to see often. It's really great to watch.

I want to channel my inner villain.

Yakuza series’ protagonists are not your stereotypical thug-life gangsters. While they’re still willing to settle an issue with their fists (or even a well-placed trash can smackdown), you’ll quickly learn they have strong moral compasses and go out of their way to ‘do the right thing’ in both the main story and endless substories, but Like a Dragon: Ishin has me yearning for something a little less righteous.

 

The series’ protagonists are so goody-two-shoes that they’ve never canonically killed anyone - all of those clearly lethal Heat Moves and rapid-fire pistol shots don’t clearly count. At the end of grueling boss battles, and despite chasing antagonists down with the intention of killing them, you’ll find that fate has some way of keeping the fatal blow out of your hands.

Damn I'm gonna buy this fucking game at launch and not play it for a year, aren't I?

 

Naw kid. You buy it today because it includes like 3 days early access as a preorder bonus. It's how I'm playing right now. Not sure if it's PC only but I imagine it applies to digital console editions.
