I support @NikatinePrime boycotting the game, as well as encouraging others (who have the financial means) to join in her boycott.
I believe in the power of art, which means believing in its power to influence discourse. Also, you can’t separate art from those who profit off it. https://t.co/y8O8lWkQBz

Facts have proved that in the face of previous criticism, “Hogwarts Inheritance” is still a dream come true in the minds of many “Harry Potter” fans around the world, because you can really experience becoming a wizard and walking in the game. At Hogwarts College.
“If you buy Hogwarts Legacy or like Harry Potter you’re automatically a transphobe.”
That’s like saying if you’ve ever played a Blizzard game, you’re automatically a fan of sexual harassment.
