No my dude. No reasonable person is saying that anyone playing this game is as bad as Hitler. What I’m saying is that if you choose to buy and play the game, you care more about playing the game than you do about JK’s bigotry. And that’s fine if that’s the decision you want to make, but own it.

Naw man, not playing a video game is literally the least someone can do. 

JK is answering the question no one asked, “what if someone was worse than post-1990 George Lucas at making up names?” 

Even, apparently, the ones who never cared about the franchise before Rowling did her best to blow up her legacy.

This is all colossal shit show, but the fact that there’s even a significant number of voices standing up against JK’s transphobia is heartening in a way. It reminds me very much of the anti-gay movements in the late 90's and early 00's - hopefully a sign that yet another form of bigotry is dying. 

Oh, and unless the end of the game is “the literally enslaved house elves rise up and kill all the wizards and we start an alternate timeline where harry potter was never born,” I’m not interested in hearing how it ends. 

I think it’s in the 1800's or some shit. I don’t know the answer to the rest of your questions, but I hope it’s a “yes” to every one. 

Since most reviews of this game seem to be “the story is kind of bland, enemy variety is limited, combat is ok, it’s a big buggy, but they did a really good job making an explorable Hogwarts so 9/10" I highly doubt having the story spoiled is gonna be a deal breaker.

Wow I have been playing BOTW on switch off and on for a couple months and completely forgot all my amiibo would give me stuff.

I dunno. A $70 Xbox game is gonna be $40 or less in a year, and less used. A $70 nintendo game is gonna be $70 in a year and $60 used. Seems like a pretty big difference. 

Imagine being so scared, or such an asshole, that you think you need a gun with you at all times, even on vacation.

I had completely forgotten this game existed lol. 

It’s a sliver of good news that, on balance, we seem to have rejected the “friend zone” as being a thing. A decade ago you’d see tons of posts agreeing with the guy being “friend zoned” and insulting the woman. Now, on most mainstream sites, people just laugh at the guy. 

That prefab house factory level still sticks in my mind as such a great, original level idea

This is just all so fucking exhausting. 

including one laxative drink that it claimed could help you lose 90 pounds in two weeks”

(Everything except 1 and 2 was bad. That’s the joke). 

Yeah this is gonna be the first full price game I’ve bought since Elden Ring. I LOVE Dead Space and think 1 is a stronger game than 2 anyway. It’s just too bad they only made 2 games. 

Or just, don’t do that. I’m a dude and I don’t wand a stranger petting me regardless of their gender. 

Frankly, I don’t care if someone wants to be reckless and maybe kill their pet. It’s sad, but I got more important things to worry about. But it is absolutely distracting and dangerous to people outside the car. It’s the same reason we ban drunk driving and texting while driving - I don’t care if you kill yourself,
