I was just reading about 10 pages back and someone was saying the goblins in this game are anti semetic. Genuine question are all goblins anti semetic, or just the Harry Potter ones? Or is it that they have money? Most goblins resemble these goblins, ears, nose, etc. The goblins in Wow are obsessed with money Just wanna edit and say I'm not playing devils advocate or defending this game. Just a thought that occurred to me re goblins.

Thanks for the answers everyone. Controlling the banks is an important distinction I didn't consider

koolkal posted:Also worth pointing out that most goblins tend to be the more cartoony greenskinned big floppy ear kind. Like most of the pictures posted across different games in the last several posts. Great point. Do the books describe them like this? Or was this for the movie and if the latter did jk bowling influence it or did they just happen to find character designers or whoever comes up with that poo poo that think just like her?

I wonder what the sales numbers will end up being. You got like a billion potterheads who don't live online and don't know about Rowling You got people who don't care about kipling You got people who care but secretly buy it anyway And you probably got people buying it with no intention of playing it to own the libs And probably some other category I forgot

Epic High Five posted:Aside from the setting and the whole announcing to the world how much it would take for you to shuck loose the aesthetics of allyship and how much people can expect you to whine about it next time it happens, how is this game even different from, say, Immortals: Fenix Rising or however it's spelled? I've watching a fair chunk of both and it just seems like a reskin of a game I can get for $20 with an actually okay Switch port that's out right now. The setting is its main draw. Making a 'good' game (not shovel ware) set in the 8th biggest media franchise of all time that also hasn't had a serious video game in modern times was a license to print money. It probably would have printed money even if it was an unplayable shallow mess. If the setting doesn't appeal to you then it's just another open world game with a sub par story.

bengraven posted:What’s funny is that I was curious how no one reports these (they have a loving trilogy bundle) so I clicked on the report button and there’s legit nothing about it that’s breaking Steam’s rules. Like you can hang out with and gently caress Hitler and Gabe’s is like “that’ll be $30” (or whatever it costs). It's funny that valve a company interested in making money doesn't ban things that aren't illegal but simply amoral?

HopperUK posted:I don't like this thing where people compare the folk angry about the Hogwarts game to gamergate. I don't like it one bit. This is dumb, like doing that I mean. Also dumb, calling everyone playing the dumb game a nazi or a fascist or a racist. 98% of the people playing it don't know anything more than "I liked Harry Potter once and I still do". And for the 1% who are aware of all the poo poo then their biggest crime is... I dunno having no empathy and. The final 1% are transphobes. Also I made up those numbers. I can't tell if it's tongue in cheek here and it doesn't matter I guess. But it's evident in other parts of the internet and as everyone knows the best way to get people to see things from your point of view is to call them nazis!

Can I ask Harry Potter questions here that I've wondered for years but not enough to actually Google? Why do wizards not use phones or email or something. Why do they subjugate owls to a life of flying around carrying their poo poo all day Why don't they use normal pens? What's up with the quills and ink Just kidding I know the answer is cause the author is a hack

Lady Radia posted:you’re allowed to play the game if you also send me $60 so don’t worry about it and do that That's OK I don't want to play it. I legitimately just think it's dumb to accuse the billion people playing it of all being racist nazis

HopperUK posted:JKR has stated outright she gets comfort from the popularity of her work, and takes engagement with her work as endorsement. To her, it doesn't matter if you're an 'ally' who just wants to enjoy a videogame without thinking about politics, or a disgusting 'gender critical' transphobe like this stinking island is infested with. So why the gently caress should it matter to anyone else. Yea but my point is that jkr and her hate aren't known by the majority of the people playing this game. There are definitely those who know and play anyway, especially anyone here. But there are many many more who aren't 'online' and aren't trans and have no idea. Calling then nazis is stupid and dumb

Feels Villeneuve posted:Metroid prime remastered is $40. You have made a fool of yourself and should retreat from this thread before you disgrace yourself further. Excuse me, I was referring to hogwartsmy original post should not be misconstrued to mean pirate Metroid Prime. It should be construed to mean buy it, but then play it on pc so it's even more badass Thank you

It actually would be really awesome if something happened and Rowling ended up as broken as Elon. I guess she's already there, they both love right wing racists and transphobes and everyone knows they're both dumb but they still have their sycophants. I guess what we need is for someone to make Rowling buy Twitter from Elon

You should use Twitter actually, to help overload it and bring it down to its final death because everyone who could fix it was fired for not sucking off Elon
