  Any review for Hogwarts Legacy that mentions J.K. Rowling or transphobia is an automatic skip for me. I want to know about the game, not what you are pretending to be offended by.

  The IGN Hogwarts Legacy review is one of the funniest pieces of games writing ever: * This game barely works * Inventory can hold four items * There are two enemies * The story and worldbuilding make no sense * An inset about how the author is a bigot * But I love Potter so 9/10

  IGN's review of Hogwarts Legacy is very weird because it reads like they wanted to give it a bad review but weren't allowed to

  Please do not buy/play/stream the harry potter game. Stand with the communities begging you to put them and their lives first. I have compiled a list of alternative magic games to play. More will be added in the future, I just ran out of spoons half way https://boycotthl.crd.co/

  Rowling's comments in the summer of 2020 rattled a number of people working on Hogwarts Legacy. Some looked for new jobs; others stayed and tried to grapple with their ethical questions. And the company responded by making one NPC transgender, according to four people familiar

  Might get the game second-hand, but have no intention of buying it new. This is a prime example of why. https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...

  jk rowling wont see your tweet about why hogwarts legacy sucks but your friend who is shamefully playing hogwarts legacy will. good. hope you see this jeremy

  Although Rowling was not involved with the creation of the game, her creative agency, The Blair Partnership, played a big role. She still owns Harry Potter and benefits financially and culturally from sales, leaving some fans facing ethical dilemmas.

  The idea that the Hogwarts Legacy boycott isn't having an impact is just a take from Mars https://twitter.com/...

  gf (masc-presenting cis woman) has been playing this week. while the avatar options are more diverse than other games, she has to wear a skirt for the entire game if she wants to have a feminine face. same as preferring ‘wizard’ over ‘witch’, now stuck in male dormitories https:/…

  buying hogwarts legacy =/ you're a transphobe but it does = you're giving money to a transphobe who is actively using said money to harm trans people if youre armed with that info, I'd hope you'd make the wiser and kinder choice and not passively support jk rowling

  There is a direct line that starts at G*m*rG*te, runs through the POC and LGBTQA+ people they chased permanently out of the industry, goes through the shift backwards in how reviews are written, and comes to this dumb IGN quote. https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...

  Hogwarts Legacy is already breaking records on Twitch and topping pre-order charts. It's going to sell gangbusters. But, thanks to Rowling's incendiary comments over the past few years, this isn't an ordinary blockbuster launch. Full story: https://www.bloomberg.com/...

  Hogwarts Legacy is one of the year's biggest video games. But for some fans and even people who made it, it's been difficult to reconcile enjoyment of the Harry Potter world with author JK Rowling's views on transgender people. New Bloomberg feature: https://www.bloomberg.com/...

  the level of infighting and hate in my feed this morning is heartbreaking. if you're boycotting hogwarts legacy, cool — boycott the game, not the players. keep the focus on our shared fight. forget her name. https://www.engadget.com/...

  “Trans people don't get to ignore the pain the franchise has become intrinsically linked to, and those who wish to care for them shouldn't get to do so, either” -@jessiegender Good on GameSpot to put this front and center *before* their review dropped https://www.gamespot.com/...
