the reddit subreddt of r/gamingcirclejerk is hilarious for this as they are banning anyone who mentions Hogwarts Legacy in anything but a disparaging light. Even asking when it's coming out or why they are against it is an instant ban.
That's the one. As usual, he'll only talk about it when everybody already knows about it and doesn't care about it anymore.
That is the funniest part about it all really, the troons are going ballistic over something Rowling has had no involvement in directly, beyond being the author of the universe it's set it. The devs/WB have said quite frequently that she's not involved, presumably because they all think she's troon Hitler or whatever, but not evil enough to make money off of her work.
He'll do something when the game is actually out and the rage will be hilarious.
I'm expecting him to come out and begrudgingly like the game, but score it low and hate on it publicly because it supports a person he doesn't like, and just tells everyone they should pirate it, as many times as they possibly can, because fuck the industry.
That would require actually playing the game. Jim is probably ecstatic that JKR is a terf so he has an excuse to rate it a 0/10 without having to waste precious amhole time.
That subreddit is so fucking bad. Around 5-6 years ago it had some funny content making fun of the r/gaming subreddit but it got completely overrun by troons. Most of the content is just sucking troon dick and not even close to funny anymore.
They’re doubling down on their nfts. He might mention it in the video, but what would make an actually interesting video is how squeenix treated their non Japanese devs like complete shit. Setting unrealistic sales goals, and forcing stupid microtransactions into games where it didn’t fit. Now that a lot of those companies have been sold off or left I’m sure he could find a developer or two to interview. But you know, effort
If you want one piece of evidence that Japanese developers should not listen to western critics and journos, the video thumbnail does the job.
Because when the trannies complained she didn't walk it back and apologize.
Honestly, I hope more fucked reviewers do that, it'll definitely help. Can you imagine calling yourself a professional games critic and not criticizing games? Like a carpenter that doesn't assemble wood.
To be fair, I don't think I've seen many new games that don't have that tag. The first one I noticed was back in 2016 when Ikea VR Experience got the tag. People love to add it to the most innocent sounding games.
They're seething so hard because they know JK Rowling is going to earn millions in royaties from this game and there's absolutely nothing they can do about it.
I'm starting to really miss the episodes where he would screech about fascism, "the right" and transphobia, like yeah it's shitty that a bunch of games with microtransactions from the same publisher were canned so soon and they start the year talking about NFTs, but we knew that. It's like there's two kinds of episodes, take Bobby Kotick video and replace name and autistic REEing. The latter being a joy to watch and we're long overdue for some I think.
Credit to Jim at the very least anyone retarded or deviant enough to actively search for these tags on Twitch would feel right at home with his streams.I just saw Sterling recommended to me on Twitch today:
It's so nice that the platform about streaming video games has these very relevant tags on them, so helpful.
