Games

Culture wars sell games. If not for all of the noise surrounding JK Rowling, the right wing contingent of the internet probably would have passed it over as "a game for kids". If comment sections are any metric to go by, everyone that played it either thought it was completely mid or bought it to own the libs.

Oh no, but what about the boycott...

Hogwarts Legacy is a 7.5 of 10. It's a fun game. But it's not revolutionary or break new ground. I hadn't played Tears of the Kingdom.

The two things the boycott did is to make the trans community look bad and made people hate them. The final thing was to give the game free advertising.

Here's a video about the Harry Potter IP. Like who owns the rights to the games, books, plays, and so on.

EDIT

...boycott did is to make the trans community look bad and made people hate them.

I was talking about the harassment and doxing of people who played/streamed Hogwarts Legacy during the boycott.

The people who tried cancelling the game are the reason it sold so well and that is hilarious. Everyone was talking about it, any advertising is good advertising
