All the outcry against it has inspired me to do the horrible, unthinkable act of keeping an eye on it and maybe picking it up down the line when it comes cheap & if it looks fun enough.

I think it's impossible to avoid contributing to companies that contribute to fundamental inequalities in society.

Enjoy what you like. Boycott what you like. Don't shame others for either, though. Because it's an impossible fucking game.

I seriously hope some of you who plan to buy it actually like it. Owning the libs is such a great scam to get people to buy things because apparently that's all something needs to do to get you guys to all rave over it.

I couldnt care less about Harry Potter but many people in the LGBT+ community willingly eat CFA despite their negative press for whatever thats worth.

I'd like an answer to the "will there be sexy goblins" question
Dude, Harry Potter doesn't even have sexy witches. The students are all underage, McGonagall is a hag, Umbridge is a fat hag, Lestrange is a Hex Maniac minus the slightest bit of charm they have, Tonks looks like a man, Molly's a hag, lol Petunia, the headmistress of Beauxbatons is an uggo. Oh, speaking of Beauxbatons, I guess they were pretty hot. Fleur was. Adult Fleur, I mean.

The actor playing her was pretty hot... but yeah the character herself isn't so flattering in the book.

And yeah there aren't any 'hot' goblins. Just goblins with big noses. Who are greedy. And own banks. But totally not a racist stereotype for anything.

not for all of em
i dated this hippie goth chick when i got out of college and she drug me to a lot of essential oil, crystals, and general metaphysical shops

lotta whackos in that community act like they just stepped off the set of charmed or the fuckin craft or somethin. no its not wands and fireballs like harry potter, its hexes and curses and rituals and seances. tarot cards and horoscopes. its "i gotta burn some sage in my apartment to ward off evil spirits", and burning personal shit like photos and hair ritualistically to put a curse on that bitch debra. lots of candles. lots of bonfires. lotta fire. just no fireballs

tho i did have one of em tell me about how she reflected a fireball when a psychic vampire came to her booth at the flea market and started trying to invade her mind. fortunately she was able to reflect that fireball right back at him, unfortunately this battle took place exclusively in the spirit realm so there werent any witnesses

Yes, I dated a witch girl who believed in shapeshifting and summoning fireballs but it was high level magic so not many people could do it. She also told me that I had an affinity for the mystic arts as well. In a previous life, I was a force to be reckoned with.

I wish I was making this shit up

It is somewhat different in Rowling's case given she is using her wealth and influence to strip the rights from minorities

Lol. She's no even anti-trans. People blew up and twisted her words to make them something they weren't.

Also, it's ignorant to believe that buying a game means you agree with her.

She's pretty anti-trans, but you're absolutely right about people being able to separate the art from the artist. Harry Potter is bigger than JK Rowling will ever be. In fact, many of JK Rowling's books either don't sell very well or get badly reviewed, she's a one-hit wonder with the Harry Potter books.
