calling this a 'Japanese Approach' has some weird racial undertones that aren't really alleviated by doubling down

also pretending that Japanese media doesn't also have its fair share of edginess for its own sake is wild

I wanna take everyone on this site with good faith, and im gonna take Ulysses' advice and ask cos i might be misreading entirely and it's irresponsible of me to be making assumptions so I'm really sorry about that, but are you not saying that Japan was able to make 'GTA but Good' because they're Japanese (i.e. not steeped in western culture like the GTA team)? sorry if I misunderstood the 'Japanese Approach' comment

I didn't even mean to say Yakuza was "GTA but good" just that it has a completely different set of priorities and emphasises different things
