There was a Harry Potter game?

YEAH THERE WAS AND THE PLOT IS THAT YOU PUT DOWN A GOBLIN LIBERATION MOVEMENT. also the goblins are jewish stand ins. also there a good goblin who says that no matter how much discrimination there is you cant use violence to defend yourself. also the goblins are evil because their culture has a different understanding of labor and capitalism. also blood libel. qnd happy elf slaves that love being slaves and HERES THE KICKER the lead producer for most of the game was a far right chud who made gamergate videos year before getting hired. he was fired after he said something racist I think. i think about this game often while ripping my hair out.

In Baldur's Gate 3 you can prevent a tiefling from doing a revenge killing on a goblin or even lead a goblin raid on a druid grove to show those stupid tree-huggers what for
- a much better game.edit to clarify i did not play the terf game i hate watched a bunch of videos about it because i was shocked by the antisemitism.
In addition to all that stuff, the story was just straight up yawn-worthy boring
- yes it was sooooo basic, it definitely seems like a story for little kids (makes sense), but what little kids is buying a 60$ game? who is this for?

Huh. I always thought Yahtzee was at the very least chud-adjecent just based on vibes but he makes a pretty strong rejection of Rowling and TERFs in general in this. Cool to see.

- tbf his old stuff was full of various slurs
  he doesn't do that any more though
- Apparently the former owner or manager or something of the escapist was a big gamergate guy, but now he doesn't work there and the current staff disavow him pretty frequently. Yahtzee seems pretty on board with trans rights and stuff but clearly doesn't want to talk about. Whenever he brings up politics in his reviews though it's always shitting on right wingers

peppino-angry They're forgetting the best game of the year smh

Yes, Armored Core 6
- mamma mia i'm a lobotimite

ive been a harry potter hater since i was in first grade and my friends were trying to hype me up for the first movie. i was vindicated years later when jk rowling ended up being a terrible person

if there is one harry potter hater on earth, that is me if there are no harry potter haters on earth then i am dead
i wish i could say the same
And on the other end of the spectrum there's me, still not emotionally detached from the parts that meant a lot to young draggo :(
They're pretty good until Goblet of Fire. Then it gets a little too edgy too quick. Good childrens books though. A lot of kids learn English here from them.

You're telling me now for the first time.

bluejean baby.. Hogwarts lady

idk I played some starfield and I watched my gf play the harry potter game and it doesn't seem much better

baldurs gate 3 tho seems pretty great, but I don't like that the plot is all about illithids (boring)

Just install a mod to replace all mind flayers with mine flails
- This really has no right being this funny
I don't like that the plot is all about illithids (boring)

Mind Flayers are the hook, but its a full on brawl between supernatural factions by the end. You get a healthy number of gods, devils, and undead monsters all piling in.

- i think "psionics" in a magic fantasy setting doesn't fit
Anti-calamari discrimination
Yeah mind flayers suck, and it sucks that anything involving the underdark has to so heavily involve them. Give me more svirfnebli if we must go to the fucking underdark

(I've never played Baldur's Gate 3 so I have no idea whether we get svirfneblin action but I have read R.A. Salvatore's books and this reminded me to rant about it)
- My character's guardian is a svirfneblin! She has both of her hands, though, so no bivrip action.

It is extremely good. Unfortunately I was almost to act 3 when starfield pulled me in for the foreseeable future

Nobody cares about my bad wizard game ooooooooooooooh

Idk, man. Sounds like a skills issue to me.

What a crossover between Armored Core 6 and the TERF wizard game would look like:

"How... How can you smile like that? Murderer!!!"

Does the HP game actually do anything... interesting? I saw footage of it and the whole time they were just inside the school or in some backwoods. I would like to terrorize people in the city with my magic spells, create money from thin air, and get sponsored by the shadow government

Permanently Deleted
Thoughts on a game (that wasn't TERF shit) where you still put down a slave rebellion, but they full on lean into being a neoliberal ghoul? You can get sponsored by the shadow government for unlimited currency, you can instigate wars off of false pretenses, you can empower landlords for rep with your shadow faction, you have missions to extract slaves and resources from other countries, etc. Would you play it?
- Yes. That’s called Paradox Interactive grand strategy games. Specifically, Victoria 3
They made a pretty good waifu but in the end people weren't loyal

not that i'm aware of. good thing too, those goblins sure scream blood libel, it would be crazy to have them in a game at all in 2023

I forgot about it the second Tears of the Kingdom came out... Aka the true best game of the year

Yeah. Gamingcirlcjerk obsessed over it for months beyond its initial hype. It was another cash grab attaching a popular IP with a mediocre product to create buzz. The Mario Movie and One Piece Live Action also fall into this category.

Basically it coasted on advertising. People thought it's the next big thing because they saw it everywhere, not realising that thats because more money went into advertising than paying the devs to make a good game.
I never watched the anime or read the manga so please take this with a grain of salt but my family and I have enjoyed the first few episodes of live action One Piece. Its nothing phenomenal but its cute and fun
- Found it a pretty decent adaptation. The actors seemed like they were having fun with the roles too

It looks like a generic game tbh, I'd almost mistake it for Ubisoft slop

it's what happens when you get when you'll released in the same year with a bunch of heavy hitters

stfu-terf sucks to suck

Go fash lose cash.

Yes there was, I made a video about it https://www.tiktok.com/@serlava_gaming/video/7197480935066045739

I haven't played any of those (I don't have a current gen console), I am still more interested in trying out the HP game before the others though.

- Is it that bad?
Buying the game is contributing towards transphobia.
- ooh mamma mia, those are some spicy comments in there
  
  a lot of scratched libs for sure
- Oh yeah, I remember this ad campaign, this whole "backlash" was what made the game sell well lol.
  
  If I could pirate it I would go that route though.
Harry Potter and the Protocols of the Elder Goblins is the one of the three you are interested in, huh
You're getting backlash because the game is pretty controversial, but I get it if you're interested. The concept of Hogwarts Legacy is appealing to long-time fans of the series. I personally never played it because I'm too busy going through Fire Emblem rom hacks
- the game is pretty controversial
  
  sus way to describe the blood libel game in the IP created by the racist terf
- You're getting backlash
  
  Am I? 🤣
  
  I like HP games, they were truly magic (pun intended) for me as a child, especially the HP games for PSX (yeah I love ugly Hagrid LMAO) and the HP 2 game for the Game Boy Color, I still need to play the first one though.
  
  I have played some others, but these are marked in my brain, and yeah, having a current game of this premise is a good incentive to at least give it a try.
  
  Fire Emblem is another franchise I need to check out BTW!
