Yeah. I own lots of films by Roman Polanski. I think he should have served time in prison for rape rather than absconding to Europe. But he also has made some outstanding films. So my compromise was buying them all second hand from eBay years after release so he doesn't receive a dime from me.

With this game, I bought it new to support the studio producing a good product with lots of care and attention. But if a new series of Wizarding books came out by Rowling, I'd likely skip them entirely. If I did buy them it would be the same way as Polanski, years later and second hand.
