The guy who wrote the game and served as lead designer for most of its production is named Troy Leavitt. He is a known neo-nazi youtuber. Big surprise that he wrote a story where Jewish analogue characters are the bad guys and need to be put in their place.

LOL. The reviews on this mess have become one of the biggest jokes on the internet.

“Snape kills Dumbledore” has the same sort of ring to it, really. The difference was that people actually knew who Snape and Dumbledore were.

This appears to be one of those YMMV situations as the game overall has been getting pretty good reviews.

A fun exercise is to ask them to name a specific quote

Here’s an author that wrote a great, strong gay character

Actual game developers have already weighed in on this

Wow, is JK that desperate for money these days? 

getting violent because that would end badly, so what did you mean? Fired from my job? Social ostracization? Reeducation?

I don’t care how you feel

I don’t give a shit about trans people because I don’t give a shit about people period.

All this talk and it still just boils down to the oldest excuse in the book: “Maybe if this minority group had shut up and never stood up for themselves, people wouldn’t hate them.” Victim blaming is so damn lazy. Do better.

Come on, Disney making a sequel to a movie about a bunch of superheroes? When has that ever happened?

Bob Iger, Suddenly Standing Behind You: Blood? Stone? BLOODSTONE! The popular* Marvel hero! Give her a cameo in Thor 5 and then her own trilogy of films where she teams up with six different Hawkeyes!

Breaking news: Andy has died in a nursing home at the age of 102 after aging in real time since the start of the series.

The Death Note is real, but every time you use it, they make a Toy Story sequel.

Zootopia 2 could work if they ditch the cop angle and put Judy and Nick in new careers for whatever reason. But actually, does the sequel need to be about Judy and Nick at all? Disney Plus had a great Zootopia miniseries recently and Nick and Judy weren’t even in it. It just focused on a bunch of supporting…

The disclaimer makes it worse, actually. So you’re fully aware that Rowling is complicit in an extremist hate campaign against one of society’s most vulnerable groups of people, but then you go on to say that this bothers you less than people telling you not to buy a crappy video game.

If the game is successful and remains popular for a long time, that keeps the HP relevant and in the public consciousness, (one could argue that this is the entire reason the game exists, as WB considers it an important brand but also one that is losing popularity as a film series. Thus the pivot to another medium)…
