the ultimate conclusion to the argument on whether it's acceptable to pirate hogwarts legacy is the person who everyone was sorta relying on to crack it posting a transphobia- and homophobia-laden screed against a well-known repacker. in terms of neatly tying up whether there were any methods of getting this game that wouldn't support someone shitty, that sure did tie it up!! /neg

#If you want to know i can't stop you but. i cant tell you enough NOT to go looking cause its soo unnecessarily bad jesus christ #the long story short is that a specific person has a vendetta against denuvo-protected games which HL is #and she posted this wild speech about how she'd crack it in 10 days. failed. cracked in 2 weeks.#and DURING THAT PERIOD. absolutely lost her shit on reddit and got banned everywhere for calling fitg*rl like. every slur in the books #i am of the opinion that tying how well a game does to how bigoted people are with an IP as massive as HP was. maybe a bad move #vs just telling your friends and irls it's a shit game with shit ideas and shit creators and they shouldn't buy it (true)#BUT. like holy fucking shit did i not really expect things to go that far south #ive only been tangentially paying attention because i was not planning on downloading it so probably more has happened #anyways just pirate magician's quest mysterious times its easy and free and you can have pink hair
