Only the most pathetic lowlife bum would buy a $80 game they had no interest in just to fulfill their anti-woke brainwashing quota.
Have you not seen those vids of people buying and burning jerseys of athletes who kneeled during the national anthem? What's the phrase, a fool and his money are soon parted.

You ask me, that and being pleased people are upset is what's really sad. An argument can be made if boycotting this game affects trans rights or not, but trans rights are a serious issue right now and not just trivial internet whining.

There are actual laws trying to pass and being passed that would cut off medical care and literally kill people. Its a very unfriendly climate for people to be trans in; in this kind of climate, yeah they paddle as hard as they damn well can in order to not go under. It's hard for someone to go "it's fine, my life isn't actually in danger from trans rights issues". Like a black guy stuck in the deep south seeing a kkk convention, it's hard not steer clear.

tl;dr maybe buy the game if you really want, but people who are against it are thinking about real world issues so maybe don't giggle like McConnell when he thinks about people dying of covid. To avoid sounding like a sociopath.
A game affects NONE of that.

It feeds into a lot of misconceptions. It's not something that's suddenly going to turn a bunch of supporters into altrighers, but any damage to a cause that's already being battered by the media isn't going to help it. Something so under attack at all times needs as much support as it can humanly get, so every little bit of damage to its public perception is going to add up.

Not to mention you have people disqualifying other people's support for trans rights over a video game.

While people aren't suddenly going to become anti trans over this, there's certainly going to be less people inclined to want to help people being hateful towards them over something as silly as this.

Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if something like this is giving the Streisand effect for Hogwarts Legacy. I used to think this controversy was the worst thing to happen to this game, now I'm not so sure anymore.

They'll just lament that the video game community is even more transphobic than they knew.

And continue to ignore that this game has trans people on the dev staff and seems to be a big middle finger to the bigoted IP creator, which is not a new concept to media.

Why should it hurt the cause? Anyone who stops supporting somthing because a portion of their peers are goofy was never really a supporter in the first place.

This.

But also, people actually are that stupid and petty so at times you have to appeal to that lowest denominator. Not in this specific situation, but in like trying to get votes or support and stuff

Don't be surprised if some of them get fired over the game, simply due to the controversy they brought with trying to play the game. That's how businesses work.

Lmao no vtuber corp. is gonna outright fire one of their talents for streaming the game, that's downright moronic. Literally the most they would do is restrict permissions for the game and they can't stream it.

None of them are going to get fired over it. The big Vtuber corporations (Hololive and Nijisanji) have made very big statements not too long ago how they will support their talents over harassment.

And if they didn't fire Coco and Hachama over Taiwan, they won't over this.

Like, I'd rather none of them played the game, but harassment isn't going to solve anything.

Thats very based. And how it honestly should be. Ive been working in the retail / service industry since 2006 and we, as a society, need to stop pandering to the easily-offended and obnoxious.
