If anyone is wondering why stuff like that results in an almost insta-probe I suggest you check out the rest of the forums, SA is not Reddit thankfully and doesn't suffer bigoted hot takes well.

Yeah, I was catching up to the thread, wondering why boat got probed. Once I saw the Harry Potter screenshots I thought, ruh roh.

I don't judge people I don't actually know. And I genuinely love coming to this thread to take about this bonkers "game". But I also understand the appalling persecution(s) that trans people are facing right now.

All I'm really saying is, buy an Idris. And paint it with trans colours, to piss the 88 brigade off well and proper.

That would be the only barely acceptable reason to buy an Idris. If it could be used in the game broken mod.

Hogwarts Legacy is a good released game that millions of people are currently enjoying, where as Star Citizen is a scam.

Is that a hot take or am I just talking about video games? (And scams)

I'm so confused.

I don't know what the idiom "hot take" exactly means, but you sure are talking about video games (and scams). See this, another $50,000,000 has been added since the half billion mark:

Yes, Star Citizen is a scam.

This is a stupid derail that will go no where good.

Plenty of other places to have these conversations.

I know SC news has mirrored development (stalled) and a lot of us are only here because we've invested a decade following this poo poo show and we are cursed to see it through, but let's not let this thread eat itself alive out of boredom.

Man if CIG ever figures out how to get custom paint jobs into the game, the greatest troll in the world would just be flying around in an Idris painted in LGBTQ colors and just letting the hate boil over in the chat.

Titanic only brang Hogwarts Legacy into this discussion as a video game in reference to Star Citizen and another post then decided to bring up a political point about it - which in my mind is not needed in a dead gay comedy forum above video games but each to there own.

She replied with her honest beliefs and was then almost immediately probated and condemned. She did not bring up the politics of it but maybe poorly decided to respond to it.


I'm just saying that many people are enjoying the video games Hogwarts Legacy, which seems to be well made by a competent development studio - Avalanche, and they see nothing political in doing so.

Where as Star Citizen is a scam run by a inept sexy bear.

I don't know why any of this leads to people getting banned.... Seems way over the top to me and not helpful to any group involved.

Just my view on the matter. I hope it's ok to express it.

Someday we’ll be staring down 20 years and 1 billion plus dollars and the game will have about 10% more content than it has now. This will just never end.

Nobody got banned for bringing up Hogwards Legacy. Also like it or not but bringing up the game is almost inevitably (especially here on SA) going to invoke the controversy around JK Rowling because she is directly profiting from the game, the two are inseparable.

We don't allow bigotry here in Video Games even if the bigotry is sincerely held beliefs. If you don't like that, you can go post elsewhere on the internet. This is not up for debate.

Trans women are women. That is not a political statement. And it is not up for debate.

Yeah a prob was appropriate in this case, but I don’t really hold anything against Titanic.

I think we all should just drop it and go back to posting about a sexy bear and his decade long conning of the worst bunch of insufferable nerds in the world.

Tain was a horrible father for sure, but you can't tell me you didn't get a little emotional pang when he's on his deathbed reminiscing with Garak about the one, single day he actually played the role of father and took him riding as a child.

I would argue Tain was more a product of the system rather than an inherently bad person.

Nah he was viciously abusive and even on his deathbed he didn't call Garak his son or share his political secrets with him as Cardassian fathers are supposed to do. I'm still mad as hell about it!!
