below the first paragraph of the article, i'm seeing a repeating video of how hugely successful hogwarts legacy has been. msn: having its cake & eating it too...

 

[LordOfChaos]

JK Rowling was loaded well before the release of this game, the way I see it, I'm not going to avoid playing something that looks awesome in a series I love just because it will make a super rich bad person a little richer

Also the line of thought gives zero consideration to the hundreds of other people who worked long hours to make this game. All of them don't think the same way, and other companies surely have people that think far far worse than her.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

At least we know what killed Bob Ross. Look at the artistry in the background landscape.

Wow seems like this bundle is really helping ensure trans game devs never get taken seriously.

Don't worry you can play it as she isn't bad.

 

[LordCBH]

Ride to Hell: Retribution has more redeeming qualities than anything in that bundle.

 

[Flutta]

Pathetic losers.

 

[ToTTenTranz]

I just skimmed through that bundle and my god those look horrible...

Whatever it is that these things were supposed to promote, it's doing the exact opposite. Unless all they were promoting was virtue signaling for people who aren't ever going to play them.

For those who gladly passed on the game, here’s some good news: a new game pack featuring 69 games by queer and trans developers, none of which directly contribute to anti-trans measures in the UK, and none of which were developed by anti-social justice YouTubers!

There it is. Kotaku persecuting the game's devs, looking through their past to do character assassination.

Fucking animals, rejoicing in the misery they create on people.

 

[Warnen]

Bad games are bad

 

[LiquidMetal14]

I donated to the NAACP instead.

 

[Sleepwalker]

Hogwarts will be vanquished by a bundle of trash. Makes sense.

 

[Sleepwalker]

Wait this is an actual game? I thought it was random memes.

 

[Eddie-Griffin]

Also on a side note, anyone else noticed how the loonies have kind of shut up since the sales and viewership figures came out?.
I'd like to think some of them have been humbled and put in their place, but i'm sure they are working on some kind of retaliation. (and this card game isnt it)

Not on Twitter and Reddit.

 

[PSYGN]

I thought they shut down MSN Games a while back.

Edit: What is reading?

You are gonna have to back that statement up, I dont see protecting womens right as bad, that used to be applauded by the left wing up until 3 years ago.

All the cringe puns, the paiinnn.

Anyway, apparently this protest has almost raised 1 million dollars as of two days ago. I wonder where the money is going.

We've entered the Twilight Zone.

 

[Kacho]

This is getting sad. Hope these people get the help they need.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

i bet none of the people involved has any shady history at all.

[kiphalfton]

LMAO at them taking advantage of their own kind. Wow just wow. But they're too stupid to see that, and think these guys actually made this to help their cause (whatever that cause may be).

 

[Comandr]

At least we know what killed Bob Ross. Look at the artistry in the background landscape.

As an lgbtqiamnopqrs person, I try to be pretty open minded. But the person speaking in this image is screaming “I need psychological help” to me. Big black witch that. Flowery dress that’s the color of the trans flag and unshaven legs with sandals. I would not hang out with this person, because regardless of self identity, this person is a fucking weirdo.

The WHO said it wasn't a mental disorder tho...

 

[peronmls]

I really don’t think I want to play it at this point.

 

[GooseMan69]

Would somebody who’s not really a Harry Potter fan enjoy Hogwarts Legacy? I kinda want to see what all the fuss is about.

 

[ComputerBlue]

I think so, it’s a great game at its core whether you like Harry Potter or not.

If you enjoy modern open world games with RPG elements you’ll have a good enough time.

I doubt all the people behind these games are actually what they say they are. Lots of for-profit bandwagon jumpers out there at the moment. Can't say I blame them either considering the lunacy on show.

Don't be distracted by the character models. Look at the hill, grass and flowers. It's like something you'd find Maddox making fun of on: http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=irule

 

[ShadowNate]

Well I bought Hogwarts Legacy so no thanks.

Sooo tempted though.

This is a fucking gem. How have I never seen this page before holy shit

(Insert Ian Malcom/Jeff Goldblum quote about could and should.)

Also, being able to wear a dress and pulling off the look are very, very different things. IMO, not many non-female people can do the latter.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Lol that site is like 20 years old, before social media or cancel culture were a thing. Good times

That’s what happens when you surround yourself with people who praise you unconditionally because of your identity.

-Kyujii from Resetera

It's epic that people can say shit like this without thinking for a second:

- does JK Rowling believing that there are biological sexual differences (an indisputable fact) cause Trans kids to kill them selves as a reasonably direct causality

- does JK Rowling "escalating" her rhetoric (???) now mean that trans people are being murdered as a result

People like this are so fucking stupid that they can't manage even the slightest bit of scrutiny. Again, it's a big ol' echo chamber that perpetuates because these people don't think about substance.

 

[Lord Panda]

But will ColdSun bother to play it?

 

[Neolombax]

Sounds like someone is trying to profit out of this silly artificial outrage. Sounds kinda shitty, does it not?

 

[j0hnnix]

 

[Kumomeme]

these people really love word 'bigotry' eh.

maybe thats their mantra before sleep everyday

 

[RafterXL]

These clowns have been trying shit since before HL released.

"Don't play that high quality fun looking game, play this junk ass vomit art game that no one would give a second look to if it weren't LBGTLMNOP+ friendly."

How about you make a good game and I'll buy it? I'm not buying 69 shovelware games with pre-schooler art because of your gender or sexual identity.

 

[TheBreezyBB]

This is like having, a remote implant surgery up your ass, everytime you sit down you wouldn't know what shit channel you gonna get!

 

[raduque]

I'm of the mind that a large portion of Indie games aren't very good in general. But 100% of the Indie games made by trans/queer "developers" are firmly in the shit tier.

 

[Surfheart]

All that the trans activism has done has been to turn ignorant people such as myself against the ideology. When I meet trans people I show them respect as human beings, I accept their life choices and I would not bully, tease or otherwise discriminate against them for who they are.

I will not accept a Government telling me the words I should use and I disagree strongly with biological men being allowed into woman's spaces or being allowed to compete in Women's sport.

These activists would call me a transphobe, all they are doing is pushing centrists like myself further to the right.

 

[Samrf89]

i'm gonna start calling them trains people, and include pictures and gifs of trains. i don't care anymore, fuck em.

 

[Woggleman]

Why is it something you need to fight back against? Just go ahead and play something else if you want.

 

[Belthazar]

I just went through the list and there's not a single game that looks remotely worthwhile... Guess they needed to sell that garbage somehow.

The article is totally misleading. Where is the factual evidence that JKR is a transphobe? Because stating a fact doesn't make you a transphobe. Clearly the media and journalists have totally lost all integrity.
Watch Hogwarts Legacy dominate the charts while this sinks.

 

[John Wick]

Of course it had to be 69 games, after all who is fucking who with what is one of the most profound questions of our time.

Imagine you interview a cis actress and nonchalantly ask her: “All our viewers are curious - do you swallow?”. It’s this level of innuendo.

What's a cis actress?

 

[Rayven_king]

So 69 weedplates or one glorious triple A tittle I wonder which one folks will choose

Apparently ~$1,000,000 worth of someone’s money went to this. Apparently some people chose unwisely.
