Irony posted... Sounds like you just hate charitiesNah they are corrupt in terms of their show and who gets invited. If you aren't "in" with them you don't get picked. A lot of favoritism and bullshit drama. GDQ is entirely soulless now where positivity is mandatory. Any stepping out of line, making jokes about a run even the most innocuous shit means you're catching a ban. Not to mention they keep pushing rhythm shit for their buddies when it's not a speedrun and it takes up entirely too much time. --- http://i.imgur.com/6VeX04D.jpg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9E_jJOPpSXY ...

No. Because they're not doing that. If you want to play Harry Potter games then yeah fine. But don't expect everyone else to have the same level of comfort over it.

Irony posted... Sounds like you just hate charities I would definitely argue that gdq is the one that hates charities, since their weird inner circle bullshit has shrunk their audience to the point where their ability to actually raise money has been significantly hindered. Something huge and trending like Harry Potter should be made front and center in order to draw as big of an audience as possible so they can actually, you know, raise money for those charities. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

I feel like if they allowed HL runs and donated that portion to actual LBGTQ+ organizations it would be infinitely more beneficial to fighting JKs influence/damage. instead it really sounds like people prefer to say lets just pretend like it doesnt exist which seems the opposite of helping. edit: to reiterate the decision is dumb as fuck IMO and those supporting it are the types to cut off their nose to spite their face. --- Typical gameFAQers are "Complainers that always complain about those who complain about real legitimate complaints."-Joker_X ...

Older Harry Potter games aren't relevant enough to make much of a difference and any streaming of Hogwarts Legacy is free marketing for the game. Don't think there's anything unreasonable about their decision. --- A Fallen Mascot ... Copied to Clipboard!
