For my latest newsletter, I wrote a thing about JK Rowling and "separating the art from the artist." I have thoughts!

J.K. Rowling and "Separating the Art from the Artist"

In case you've been living under some kind of magical rock, there's a new Harry Potter tie-in video game out now, called Hogwarts Legacy. I honestly wasn't...

@charliejane Sorry that I have to critize a tiny part of your article:

That review from Wired that you linked to, it didnt give any rundown at all of how the game actually is. It barely touches the game, with only a few subjective statements like "a tangible absence" and "without any attention to making it actually worth playing".

Other than that, your article has given me food for thought. Thanks.
