WHY?! WHY ARE THEY BEING SO STUPID WITH HOGWARTS?!

They built this whole world into the game and did NOTHING with it! It’s empty! Hogwarts the settings is perfect! The castle was fun to walk around in, to explore! I 100%'d the game because I loved exploring in it! Then they did nothing else to the game. I don’t even remember what the antagonist’s name was!

The game oversold all expectations! People just loved shelling out money for it! Then WB just dropped it.

I see things bitching every day about how their game studios don’t make enough money and then they shit the bed here by just letting that game sit here!

If they’re actually worried about money why are they not cranking out DLC every 4-6 months?! People would buy it! The world they built is begging to have more stories told, and people are holding out their wallets asking for more content for it - and they cancel it?!? They can’t bitch and moan that games don’t make money and then they just flip the off switch on their freaking money printer.

Thanks. That was cathartic.

Why’d you give money to a terf?
Ever looked at an advert? Bought a computer? Eaten food produced by a multinational chain like Nestlé? Almost every action you take will involve generating money for an absolute shit. It’s fine (even encouraged) to let people who might not know that Rowing is a horrible bigot, but don’t have a go at someone for enjoying a fucking video game.
nah, they asked a question. it’s a loaded question for sure, but they asked a simple question. stop enabling.

stop enabling

What does this even mean?

stop enabling terfs. stop enabling punching down. stop enabling fascism. stop enabling ignorance.
I’ve seen plenty of “punching down” towards people who buy a game simply to enjoy it. It’s kind of happening in this thread.

ah yes, Gamers the MOST oppressed class of people.

bad faith argument that any sane person would be embarrassed to have uttered.

The problem arises when you believe I’m trying to make some sort of argument. I am not.

I was nicely trying to point out your hypocrisy. But since that didn’t work, let me spell it out for you:

Stop being a dick.

rights are being degraded for trans and women and fucking immigrants all around you but THEY CAME FOR THE GAMERS so you just HAD to speak up.

if you actively choose to enable intolerant actions, you no longer deserve to be tolerated by civil society. there is no paradox here.

civil society isn’t protected by people like you, which is what you clearly fancy yourself doing right now.

civil society is protected from people like you.
