Been playing Hogwarts Legacy early access and it brings alot of mixed feelings for me. Both seeing flaws in the game and with the controversial side of the wizarding world, I feel absolutely guilty for enjoying it and even purchasing the game. It was a long and difficult process mentally. 

But for the game itself, it's fun, it brings the magic of the Wizarding World that so many people having been dreaming off. As a kid I always dreamed of recieving my Hogwarts acceptance letter and dreaming of being on that Qudditch field and having to run back to the castle in time for my defence against the dark arts classes, and now as a 20 year old, Hogwarts Legacy manages to at least satisfy a small part of my childhood to a certain level. 

Though I purchased the game I want to make it clear, I do not agree with J.K Rowling or any of her views. I completely support the trans community in every way possible. I completely understand how so many people feel betrayed but her and feel that the wizarding world is no longer a safe space for many people in the LGBTQ+ Community. For me personally I'm on the side of seperating the art from the artist which I know a lot of people will disagree with but personally just because Rowling first created the world, I believe that the world belongs to the fans and millions of people who brought it to life. What J.K Rowling rants about behind a keyboard on twitter shouldn't have any power on people, and destroy their love for a huge part of their childhood. 

Wait, what did J.K. Rowling say on Twitter about Trans? I don't have the Twitter platform and don't use it, but you've got me curious.

She went on a tangent about how Trans women aren't real women and that they are "men in dresses", she's been demanding that there should be women only areas excluding trans women and also retweeted and agreed with politicians who have been pushing laws that make it harder for people to tranisition, she's also basically announced that she's a terf and she's trying to push her views onto her following. 

It's been going down since about 2019 and she's only getting worse. Hense why there was a big push to boycott Legacy even though she had no involvement and (not a major story spolier but still about the game) 

Spoiler

there's a trans character in the game

but she still gets money from the game being set in the HP universe. 

Same goes with all the fantastic beast movies.

Jeez, that's harsh. I honestly thought she was more open-minded than that. I don't have any problems with Trans people, as far as I see it I think people really could be born in the wrong bodies/bodies of a gender someone naturally isn't. I've never understood why people come down so hard on Trans people. Like, just let someone do what someone feels they have to in order to feel more comfortable with themselves. Like, there was a commercial about that Jazz Trans from the "I Am Jazz" tv show that talked about death threats. To me that's just way too far, and there's no excuse for such threats in my opinion. But yeah, that's pretty surprising about J.K., I mean... damn.
