yeah, at this point the woke trans mob is out and explaining in detail why its bad, but nah im gonna go to the most rabid zionists that wanna kill a fuckton of people and see what their opinions are
sometimes things are bad and are bad at their core (both because they financially support someone who is doing so much to make the world more transphobic than it already is and also all the antisemitism, racism, classism, misogyny, transphobia, and just plain old bad writing decisions at the core of the story) and we just need to let go and stop participating in the fandom because it inevitably leads to people saying shit like "oh i can just buy this harry potter game even though i know jkr sucks and this gives money to her that she will use to fund bigotry, it belongs to the the fans now!" when it doesn't, as long as jkr is alive it's her space and spending time in it will eventually lead to money making its way over to her!!!
and the game itself is bad because it's about the goblins, who have long been noted to be fairly antisemitic caricatures in harry potter, being swarthy hooked nosed creatures who run the banks, have a long history of pogroms being run on them, have different moral values around ownership (very similar to accusations of judeo bolshevism) and have a literal star of david as their symbol in the films. and in this game they kidnap children for ritual purposes which is just straight up blood libel
if you still aren't sure what's antisemitic here and you somehow aren't a bad faith poster, look up judeo bolshevism, look up blood libel, look up images of antisemitic caricatures and compare them to descriptions of goblins in harry potter. there are so many antisemitic tropes in there it's impossible to imagine no one was aware
don't "they" me, my pronouns are right in my name. using gender neutral pronouns for people who have non-neutral pronouns prominently displayed is soft transphobia
i could give you a critical reading of a plot synopsis, but i think that wouldnt do much good here, cromalin's summary is correct. and for the record you have just talked with 3 trans people that agree that its a problem. in fact i havent met a single trans person (i know many hundreds of trans people) that thought it wasnt a problem.
By existing it helps her transphobia. I don't care if it was a game purely about how awesome trans people are, it would still turn funds toward that fucking bitch
but its not, and the games a shitty ubisoft open world only made to seem good through a bunch of losers Stockholm syndrome with a stupid children's series they can't fucking LET GO OF
It’s literally the opposite of transphobic. It’s like they tried as hard as they could to negate everything bad JKR has ever said…
sadly it still shovels money into her pockets and is about the cabal of hooked nose bankers stealing children to perform rituals

noticing you're neglecting to defend the blood libel plotline or the fact that it's another bland, dogshit open world game
but also if i wanted a cissie's opinions on trans issues i'd surely have asked instead of telling

You're a transphobic clown that cares more about your Harry Potter treats than trans people. Stop pretending otherwise.
