Considering one of the main hubs for outrage was /r/GamingCirclejerk who themselves use the defense of "lmao this list of streamers playing wizard game totally isn't an invite to harass them. This is a joke subreddit why are you taking it seriously?!".

I can hardly blame people for thinking the outrage was fake. Some of it was so over the top it was insane

That said, fuck J.K Rowling, and fuck her opinions

I bought the game only because of the obnoxious virtue signaling cunts screaming about boycott.

Ended up enjoying it tremendously and playing it way too much.

So, thanks to obnoxious virtue signaling lynch mob I guess.

There is something to be said about voting with your wallet and boycotting people who actively donate to anti-lgbt organisations.

But christ was that particular boycott super fucking obnoxious.

I thought the game was kinda mid. The first part in Hogwarts was amazing, the rest of the game turned into the standard open world grind a bit too quickly for me.

I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I can see how you did 😁
