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?
Because I'm tired of being told what to be outraged about
You're supposed to be able to figure it out yourself. People wouldn't have to tell you these things if you were smarter.
My trans friends purchased the game, too. One of them specifically because of the well-done trans character, they said "I want to support whoever wrote that character into the game"
Almost like projects with 100s of people working on them are more complicated than "one person gets a tiny share of each purchase so it's completely bad"
SIRona RYAN might sound like a transphobic name at first, but it turns out, Sirona is the name of a Celtic goddess. Who was often represented with a snake and eggs.
Not a well done character. Which isn't surprising, when the lead writer for most of the project was a member of Gamergate https://www.theverge.com/2021/3/5/22315226/hogwarts-legacy-leavitt-resigns-developer-avalanche-youtube-gamergate
