On that note, I feel like a lot of people saying "This game looks bad anyway!" are undermining the boycott because if the game looks bad, of course nobody's going to buy it. And it would then fail because of the devs, and not because of Rowling. I get that they're probably trying to convince people "You don't really need this!" but I feel like people are going to judge that for themselves rather than listening to a stranger's opinion on the internet. The message should be "Don't buy this game, because it enables Rowling's transphobia against us."

this annoys me with boycotts, yep. Sometimes the thing is good, and then you're letting the bad guys reframe the debate to something they can win. Even if the thing is actually bad, it's still just a distraction from your moral cause.
