Gee, what could a game in a series created by a terf have to do with terfs? Scientists will ponder this for years. I mean, it’s not like J.K. Rowling owns the I.P. and makes millions of dollars per year from things like this, right?
Edit: TL;DR
Rowling consistently makes passive income on all Harry Potter products. Multiple sources have cited that Rowling earns anywhere between $50 million to a $100 million each year from royalties. Forbes estimated she earned $95 million in 2017 alone.
A lot of people. Artists, programmers, voice actors, designers etc. So what if some fraction goes to a bigot? I’m not allowing her to live rent-free in my head and control my purchases like you are.
don’t waste your time with these weirdos. they throw around labels of transphobia for daring to disagree with anyone that doesn’t share their narrow, obsessive world views.
What a long-winded way of telling me you want to support transphobia.
The people you just named, ya know, other than your favorite bigot, you know how they tend to get paid? Paychecks. One and done. Generally, they don’t get royalties. They might get paid for future projects from that cash, assuming the publisher brings them back or owns them, but as far as straight cashflow goes, that money is going to two places: executives and rights owners.
Well, someone said terfs had nothing to do with Harry Potter, I said the IP is owned by a terf who makes millions from it, and you said “Yawn,” so… Yeah, pretty much.

Here’s a video about the Harry Potter IP. Like who owns the rights to the games, books, plays, and so on.
Looks like WB haves the right to the games. So they get most of the money from the games. Rowling owns the rights to the books and plays.
So, you’re just going to ignore the hundreds of game makers who worked on the game and don’t share her views?
Where does the money flow, bud? One way or another, you’re supporting her and her transphobic views

My replies aren’t for the troll’s benefit, but to give context to undecided lurkers.
If the lurkers don’t agree with you, does that make them trolls too?
Being a lurker and being a troll are mutually exclusive. When you start being a troll, you are no longer a lurker.

i bet she owns some stock in a corporation you shopped at this week better watch out transphobe
Yawn
Just admit you’re transphobic, it’s a lot easier.
I’m transphobic because I don’t partake in perpetual mob outrage?
You’re borderline if you’re happy to sit around and pretend (and publicly claim to others) it has nothing at all to do with Harry Potter as a series.
Did I do that?

Delusional.
The energy you’re giving off.
