Poor Logan. He just wanted to play a game in peace, now he's gonna have trannies calling for him to be ousted from ReeeeEra.
Drupal developer? Oh man, he's almost certainly involved in the bizarro war in that dev community between psycho woke trannies and anti-SJW bondage sci-fi roleplaying fetishists. Definitely worth some further research into archives, I'd do it myself if I had the time right now...
 
I really hope this debacle over a fucking video game really starts to wake people up to how unhinged troons can get. Like this is some of the freakiest backlash to a piece of fictional media I've ever personally seen. I won't be to optimistic though, as troons have done worse things that people tend to ignore or forgive...
Remember when it was right wingers who didn't like Harry Potter?
 
The guy didn't play Forspoken long enough to get past the woke ghetto black shit at the beginning of the game, very awkward.

I don't think ResetEra is angry at Rowling because of what she said, I think they are angry at her for saying something that has now made enjoying Harry Potter a behind closed doors activity for them.
 
Are Steam profiles public by default? I assume they are - at least to friends. It’s not something anyone thinks about, and unless you’re embarrassed about your friends seeing your 1000 hours played in a hentai dating sim there isn’t really much reason for a normal person to care enough to turn it off.
He clearly took a lot of pride in showcasing his steam profile, to the point where he had an entire bio written of his past janitorial positions and gaming "accomplishments".

Going private must definitely sting and I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up setting it to public once all the dust settles.
 
There are some games on there where to get 100% you have to seriously do some insanely autistic things for endless amounts of time. Just for example on Batman: Arkham City you have to play the challenge mode pretty perfectly for many hours with every character and Torchlight you have to play on the hardest difficulty collecting gobs of shit, less than 1% of players get just one of these achievements the number who gets all of them must be lower than the troon percentage of the population (until ColdSun gets done with them by playing more Hogwart's Legacy):

Fun fact if dev hasn't locked their achievements server side, you can unlock shit with Steam achievement manager. THQ (Company of Heroes 2 and Dawn of War 3) has multi-player only achievements on limited time events.
I haven't checked yet if Hogwarts Legacy applies, since it has account tie in and all with DLC store. I have my doubts.
Since most single player developers know that they're going to make sequels, old ones are promptly abandoned and many are outright broken and impossible to get due to YanDev tier coding.

So far use of Steam game manager and unlocking achievements isn't against terms of service since its not ruining experience for anyone. So if dev has the achievement in grey you're golden if a achievement is golden well you're stuck. Even more so when you're playing a dead game.

Yep, that was when JKR was talking about helping refugees and lefties were using the most boring milquetoast HP memes.

Probably has a lot to do with the age of these goons. Most of them during that time were young and very left leaning, whereas a lot are probably moderate or even conservative as they grew up. It's all about confirmation bias, one can easily twist this franchise to suit rightoid memes.

I forgot about that but I meant like, late 90's to early 2000's. It was the death rattle of the religious right as a significant cultural influence in the US IMO. I remember occasionally hearing about a Harry Potter book burning sponsored by weird evangelicals growing up or like there would be one kid in class who wasn't allowed to read them and I always loved the books as a kid so I noticed.

Ark Survival Evolved had a mod on the steam marketplace that would permanently unlock every achievement, idk if it's still there/supported but I used to see it on servers all the time so you didn't even have to seek it out, just join a server and the mod autodownloaded.
I don’t even like Harry Potter that much but I’m considering buying the game just to show gaming companies that bowing to the whole woke mob has no influence on sales and that there’s such a small minority on them on Twitter it’s better to ignore them and let them screech in their bubble.
I've said this before but if you must buy it as a means of voting with your wallet, consider buying it as a gift. Maybe you have a niece or nephew, or a friend with a birthday coming up. Hell, go on /v/ and give it away to some poor NEET with nothing going for him. I also wonder if there's some charity like St. Jude's or Shriner's hospitals that takes donations in the form of video games for sick kids because I've seen a lot of people not just here post about buying it to essentially send a message.
 
Are you kdiding? He continues to go on about his liberal talking points. He hasn't actually learned a damn thing other than "it sucks when this is used against me. We should stop that.".
This is his entire life; teaching the same shit he was taught to a new generation of activists. He can't back down no, he's too invested in it.
 
Youngsters forget that the right used to be every bit as oppressive and hysterical as the trannies are now.
You have extremist idiots on both sides of the fence. Though in retrospect I can at least understand the satanic panic and boycotting violent video games, misguided as it was.

Being exposed to all this nonsense every day is truly starting to rot my brain.

What really gets me about all this controversy is that the Harry Potter IP is very beloved among true and honest women. I'd go as far as to claim that the wizard game is one of the most female dominant popular game releases that has ever launched in terms of player demographics, maybe even an all-time number one depending on how you measure it.

Of all the people I know that have bought this game, only one is a guy, and he's not straight. The rest are all feminist women, but they represent the "unwoke" working class flavor of feminists who don't spend enough time online to even know what a TERF is, or what Joker Rowling has been up to on twitter.

Relevancy fades quick; Elon Musk's twitter account tanked 90% in terms of engagements last year, despite the twitter purchase controversy. The last Harry Potter movie dropped in 2010, so Rowling hasn't been on an average person's radar for well over a decade. The fact that her new book sold only a handful of copies showcases just how little people care about her as opposed to her fantasy world. If you mention Rowling and controversial tweets in the same sentence, most of the normies who hear you will assume that you're talking about the "dumbledore gay" thing.

The trans activists can't even begin to comprehend this, because they're almost exclusively unemployed NEET men, polar opposites of the people who are excited to play the game. They're absolutely incapable of relating to their harassment targets because they have nothing in common with them.

It's just too much, watching these grown ass men who consider themselves the highly mature arbiters of morality going around shouting SNAPE KILLS DUMBLEDORE like 4chan kids in 2007. At least the imageboard teenagers back then knew they were being silly (and didn't serve death threats/suicide baiting on the side, lmao)

Imagine being a woman who finds out about this controversy via getting spoiled/harassed by a person of gender (because you wanted to relive your teenage fantasy of receiving an invitation to hogwarts), then actually looking into Rowling's statements and seeing that she's an extremely left leaning feminist who's primary wrongthink is being afraid of trans people that harass women. Who do you think this hypothetical woman will side with at that point?

B-But I was told leftism is growing more popular with Zoomers, how could this game succeed when that's happening?!

Jokes aside, my opinion of the trans community has gotten even lower after this disgusting behaviour. Even the ones who aren't doing the harassment still seem to sorta imply they only dislike it because it makes their whole community look bad, not because it's actually just a generally evil thing to do.

I'd like to add.
Growing up during Potter mania post 9/11, Newgrounds days and others created new brand of scorned Trekkie potterheads.
Politics were different and internet was busy trolling both furries and Potter fans through orchestrated spoiler campaigns
A TTENTION SHOPPERS VOLDEMORT KILLS SNAPE.
Internet was largely anti degeneracy, weebshit, community against community.
All of which were somewhat right leaning early Newgrounds, 4chan and even Something Awful were part of trolling the new left leaning kid around the block, seen by afro wig guys in suits yelling "SNAPE KILLS DUMBLEDORE, DOBBY DIES!" after that gay shit was introduced in the books JK Rowling gave left wing opinions.
Oldfags that were around ten plus years ago grew up and newfags completely co opted both 4chan and SA with pony shit, degeneracy and cuckoldry. People didn't give a damn about Potter since despite being multi billionaire franchise wasn't bad as newcomers and old guard was gone, degeneracy was the norm, tranny bullshit was pushed everywhere including aforementioned communities.
At that point ANYTHING even slightest to right, meaning people with liberal ideas, free speech and so on who dared to criticize troons was the next Hitler.
Moderately right kids who who hated Potter, furfags and Sodomy grew up and political compasses changed as the time passed while clown world was busy changing definitions.

We grew up and world changed to boot. I bet you didn't guess this couldn't happen 20 years later. Think about that for the moment and feel how old you are.
 
I knew a girl in high school who was the biggest Harry Potter fan, the kind who reads and writes fanfiction, LARPs, goes to cons and shit, would doodle in a notebook she anxiously kept secret during class, she was an awkward pimply uggo and generally a laughing stock. After graduating she trooned out. Wonder how she's liking this great game now.
