When this gets undenuvo'd I am so there as Joshua Potter, final boss of transphobes and inventor of the troon detection spell "Expecto Awoman".

Troy Leavitt, the lead designer that got canceled, is going really hard on promoting the game.

His response to the Rowling stuff in his response video is also probably the closest we're going to get to an official response beyond "she's not directly involved."
As I think many of you know, I am a strong trans-rights supporter. I am hoping to build bridges of understanding between the different communities, but what about what J.K Rowling has to say? Well my thought is, first, you should read her statement very carefully; I would advise that you don't let others do your thinking for you.

Now when I read it, I see that there are points where I disagree and points where I can see her reasoning. So when I read J.K Rowling's position, I see that she's expressing herself in a calm and reasonable manner, and she even provides explanations for why she thinks the way that she does. She's worthy of conversation, not cancelation. I see a potential bridge there and I also see, because she took the time to write this, where I would initiate that conversation. So I appreciate what she's done there as well.

I'm fairly certain most tech people have a similar story. I know when I was first getting started I was amazingly talented at making things far worse before they got better.

Also, a power button literally being the only fault is rare, and particularly difficult to test. So, I can see why you were lead down such a path in search of an answer.
 
The best thing about all this 'controversy' is that the game is almost certainly going to end up being a forgettable, completely inoffensive, mid tier Ubisoft style open world game.

Great marketing for the developer, honestly. The outrage has somehow managed to convince terminally online conservative culture warriors that playing and defending a Harry Potter game - a brand inextricably tied with feminists and out of touch libs, created by a woman obsessed with virtue signaling - is based and redpilled.
 
A guy who made a gimmick Twitter account has a mental breakdown over the game using their line to promote the game.

Person made a Twitter called “Can You Pet The Dog?” that literally doesn’t nothing other than tell you if you can pet an animal in a game.

Also he defended Blizzard back when all the shit about the company was coming out.

'put so much time into...'

Nigger, shut the fuck up. You play a game, and put in a yes/no. You're not exactly breaking your back out here.

It's not even as advanced as DoestheDogDie.com.
 
If Harry Potter can outlast a bunch of Christian extremists claiming the books made you serve Satan, it can easily survive a bunch of terminally online idiots taking a video game too seriously.

What the fuck is he whining about?

An official Harry Potter twitter said you can pet a cat in the game, and apparently the dude thinks he invented the statement and can’t stand that mean ol’ bigot J.K. Rowling used his catchphrase to promote the game.

*soy face points at a harry potter game*
"Wooooah we can own the libs by buying this game inspired by a book written by a libtard woman that wants men castrated"
"This blatant cognitive dissonance is ok because me no like tranny and enemy of my enemy retardation"

You're so mad people want to piss off libtards for ruining gaming lol
 
Spite buying is retarded no matter the target, don't waste the money of a full-priced game on a product that's already going to sell enough to piss people off just on brand-recognition alone. I'm buying it because using accio to throw random shit at people looks hilarious and I have the burning urge to play the world's most vindictive Hufflepuff.
 
It sounds pretty interesting, but I'll probably wait for Josh to stream it before deciding if I'll buy it or not.

For sure, but you also shouldn't discount the amount of people in their mid-to-late 20's who want to play it cause they grew up on Harry Potter and the game is perfectly positioned nostalgia bait. I ain't ashamed of that, I don't mind submitting myself to astroturfed brainworm pop-culture. It's fun, and easy. Being able to justify all that with your favourite Twitter hashtags makes it even better I'm sure.

Yeah, that's my take on what it'll end up as. People seem to think this is going to be some year-by-year wizard simulator where you go to class even though making a gameplay loop out of that isn't possible. Instead, it'll just be the same cookie cutter open-world recipe everything else is these days. God of War, Witcher 3 without the writing, all the Assassin's Creed garbo, etc.

Modeling an enormous intricate castle would cost an insane amount of money, so it'll quickly spill out into a bunch of bland ass open-world forest/dungeon/mountain levels outsourcing studios can churn out.
