lets just create an alternate wizarding universe.
i mean, she stole the idea from someone else anyways.
this could just be a "cruel reflection" minus the TERF nonsense, and wizards shitting on the floor.

MODERATORS
Warner bros has no idea how to media anymore. They forgot about looney tunes characters. They cancel their movies after shooting before release. They do t make dlc for games that sold like hotcakes. All they did was patent the nemesis system. what the fuck are they doing?
Nobody knows but it really gets the people going
It's disappointing that even here on the fediverse people are cheering for the franchise of someone who's sole motivation these days seems to be hating trans people.
I think it’s really interesting that the christians used to have a huge hate boner for Harry Potter when I was growing up but now it’s shifted to the left sphere. They all kinda flip flopped
Extremists on both ends demand purity of thought
There's about a thousand and one other people involved with the franchise after 8 movies, 3 spinoff movies, a play and a dozen or so videogames.
Rowling is pretty much irrelevant to the fandom and people aren't into the HP stuff because of her.
She is directly benefitting from the sales and people buying Harry Potter stuff know that.
Yeah so are about a thousand other people who worked on the franchise/product in question and may be very positive influences on the world.
Trying to deny a literal billionaire money is symbolic at best.
Do you feel the same about boycotting Tesla?
Tesla has a ceo that is arguably evil, his companies flaunt labour laws and he is actively trying to make the world a worse place through multiple means.
The HP writer makes mean tweets and complains women use her bathroom.
Both are bad people, but not even remotely at the same level.
you are wrong . She is not just making mean tweets, she is doing very real damage to queer people and women irl.
JK Rowling is a transphobe, a bigot, and a fascist.
It's actually so refreshing seeing upvoted comments here with the correct take, whereas the chuds would be all over this on the other site
Fuck JKR and everything she stands for
and yet, there's plenty of dogshit apologists in this thread arguing to "just let people play games" because they have zero self control. this place is literally no different than the other.
Yeah true. It's generally better from what I've seen but nazi chuds really are everywhere.
they came for the GAMERS so they just HAD to speak up.
So is a massive chunk of murica
Disappointing for sure. Great game and has the potential for some great expansions.
Maybe Hogwarts 2…
No, the game sucks
WHY?! WHY ARE THEY BEING SO STUPID WITH HOGWARTS?!
They built this whole world into the game and did NOTHING with it! It's empty! Hogwarts the settings is perfect! The castle was fun to walk around in, to explore! I 100%'d the game because I loved exploring in it! Then they did nothing else to the game. I don't even remember what the antagonist's name was!
The game oversold all expectations! People just loved shelling out money for it! Then WB just dropped it.
I see things bitching every day about how their game studios don't make enough money and then they shit the bed here by just letting that game sit here!
If they're actually worried about money why are they not cranking out DLC every 4-6 months?! People would buy it! The world they built is begging to have more stories told, and people are holding out their wallets asking for more content for it - and they cancel it?!? They can't bitch and moan that games don't make money and then they just flip the off switch on their freaking money printer.
Thanks. That was cathartic.
Why'd you give money to a terf?
Not OP but I bought it for my sister who is notoriously impossible to buy birthday presents for because she explicitly requested something for once, then I played it through Steam family sharing to deny at least one sale of the game.
I'm suprised and a lil' confused why you would share this story in response. Respectfully, it feels like you're shifting blame. Like, okay, sure, It's your sister's birthdays fault you gave money to a terf.
I mean, you do you but if the trans persecution isn't a deal breaker when it comes to something so basic as media choices. Then, whatever. Own it.
(please do not support TERF content, pirate it if you really want to nostalgia bait yourself)
because dlc is not something you just "do". it's something of a scale and complexity that needs to be planned out from the go. If the dev team is allowed to cook you might get an Assassin's creed 2 situation. but this company will almost certainly not allow that to happen.

Is someone upset they can't fork over more money to the rabidly transphobic piece of shit and the media conglomerate megacorp?
Right message. Wrong tone. Assuming you want people to fork less money to the transphobic piece of shit.
You do want that, right?
coddling the oblivious to enable the bigots has not been a winning strategy on any front if you simply look around.
