Current Events > Twitch streamer calls for boycott of streaming because of Hogwarts Legacy ads

(+) Yeah! (+)

Go back and spam more boogie topics

I heard some of the devs that made the game are trans. So people want to boycott something made by trans people....

Spam?

You've made like 75% of all boogie topics. Are you really not aware?

i am so very tired

Is one or two topics a week spam??

Over the course of several years yes?

Thats like saying making a topic a week is spamming

Idk why youre all bent out of shape over gamefaqs topics

If a cop on a dying video game message biard made weird obsessive topics about me 1-2 times a week, I'd be pretty sketched out.

I feel like there's far too much buy in from society for Twitch to not run ads for the game.

This is the workplace equivalent of "I have black friends".

Like regardless of your thoughts on whether the game should be boycotted, etc. etc. etc. "someone didn't quit their job at a studio over a large game that hypothetically is a good resume item because of who created the IP" isn't that big of a counter argument as you're acting like it is.

There are plenty of minorities who work on things that aren't necessarily "friendly" to minorities because it's a job and it's not necessarily fair to ask them to shoulder the brunt of "striking".

idk man

idk man. Would you stay at a job to get something good on your resume if you believed those who told you that the project was literally helping kill a minority? I wouldn't. I've left a job for less. Clearly no one at Avalanche believes what some people are saying.

This isnt the good point youre trying to make, mod on gamefaqs lmao. We can make topics on whatever we choose on. Profession doesnt matter

and note. You guys are the one bringing it up in an unrelated topic. What does that say about you

Not everyone has the privilege of being able to just go unemployed.

This is getting so annoying that I am starting to want to buy the game and I had 0 interest in it in the first place...

One of the wonderful things about our society is we can both buy or not buy or support or not support something for whatever reason we choose. You like to pretend to be magic more than you want to support trans people, I get it. But you can't stop people who are concerned about trans rights and the normalization of terf ideology from being concerned about it with memes.

all these people telling us what video games we are allowed and not allowed to play will just push more people to buy it

You clearly don't care about trans people or anyone in the LGBTQ community since you're worrying about boycotting JK Rowling one video game royalty check at a time when we are less than two years away from a regional trans genocide potentially blowing up into a nationwide LGBTQ one. We're going to win or lose against the Rowling-types very soon. Slow activism is not going to succeed in time.

But at least you're telling literal LGBTQ people that they lose their ally cards if they even consider a video game!

This is honestly one of the dumbest things I've ever seen someone say on this website.

Nothing he said is wrong.

I wish people cared this much about real problems

Yeah like how JK Rowling and other worthless bigots are doing actual harm right now that doesn't hinge on Hogwarts Legacy royalties.

I don't have a problem giving money to the rich because we aren't going to stop them with boycotts or solid arguments. They need to have everything taken from them.
