Im thinking the same. If its good it may be worth it for $20. I mean I played a whole lot of Blitz Ball in FFX back in the day.

given this avalanches track record, what gives you confidence this will be anything but a 70 game?

I wouldn’t be worried about that, has there been a single AAA game that’s released in the last year that didn’t need a few months of patching to be what we all expected? I’d enjoy octopath, then in 3 months check to see the stability of Hogwarts.

Yeah I'm sure it'll improve down the line with patches. Will put in 2 weeks now, and then come back to it after Octopath. This way I'll get to experience it with everyone.

For a forum that stands against fascism. That seems a bit, hmm, what's the word.....fascist.
Fascism : a way of organizing a society in which a government ruled by a dictator controls the lives of the people and in which people are not allowed to disagree with the government.
Sound like anything you know?

ryan's 'thoughts on the matter' include dismissing rowling an 'anti-trans mouthpiece'. other than demonstrating ryan's vapidity, what, exactly, does resorting to juvenile name-calling accomplish?...

"Huge".. the lengthy folks are going over to stan for this game is breathtaking.

To be honest, I don't really care about reviews and 7/10 is a good score for me.
I just don't think the other Avalanche is such a talented studio that they would be a better fit for this game.

I'm still not sure about the combat system from what I've seen, but at least I know that you can Crucio any motherfucker you want without any apparent consequences. Just had to go back to the 1800's for people to not be pussies about the Unforgivable Curses.

The girlfriend & I just did a whole marathon of the movies she had never seen them before which blew my mind. Just seeing the world and the potential it'll be fun to play regardless of the drama behind one persons name. I'm not going to watch these reviewers because 90% of the are annoying.

I just pre-ordered the PS5 deluxe edition. I read and enjoyed the books. I watched the movies (they play them nearly every weekend on cable) and enjoyed those, even if I'm to the point of being sick of them. And I don't give a fiddly frigging crap about what J.K. Rowling thinks about anything outside of the books she wrote.
I most likely will not play every side-quest or scenario, and I'm certain I won't get the plat for the game (don't care about plats), but since watching the various previews, I've little doubt that I will certainly enjoy my time with this game. That's why I'm buying the game, not because of any BS woke stuff being in it or not, not because it will piss anyone off at that other site or not, but because it looks like I'll enjoy playing it. That's it, that's all.
And I'll be playing it in full maximum fidelity mode at ~30fps, because framerates aren't that damn important to me, only the best "purty garfics" I can get on my peasant console matter to me. And if anyone has a problem with that, I can only say this, "The ass of a rat is not given."
Yeah, I'm a bit salty today, I had an annoying day at work, on my 6th beer, and it's over 3 hours past my bedtime, so I'm being facetious. Deal with it, or not, I don't really care. {blows a big ol' raspberry at "the entire world"}
.......venting in a humorous way can be so relieving on a bad day.......

I think he has the account ‘can you pet the dog?’, which is tagged in that post.
The fact that these people are permanently miserable and angry is balm for my soul.

TERF is just another slur added to the misogynist’s and sexist’s repertoire.

Honestly, why? She's not some extremist. Anyway, don't want to derail.
I think it looks fantastic and no matter the studio's previous titles this can still be a banger and I believe the previews show as much.

The ones where she is railing against the marginalisation of women’s opinions and issues? Or the ones where she reinforces the scientific facts about human biology?

People aren't just angry about you buying game based on "evil" writer's views, they are angry that you're sponsoring her by doing so, since she will get profits from the game's sales.
As if it mattered to literal billionaire - the game could flop and she still would continute her evil activities, like building shelters for rape victims.
IGN reviewer has a right to express his opinion, but both "the world" and "greatest story ever told" bits make it ridiculous. "The world" doesn't consist primarily of woke westerners. Majority of the world would have hard time understanding the issue at all.
And the actual story is standard to the point of banality. I am a big fan of JKR twitter writing though, she slays
My biggest worry is that the game isn't too vanilla or goody-goody two shoes. The books are, understandably so, they are for children. I'd like to be someone amoral, and I don't want primitive morality system.
Hopefully the quests are interesting and have some good writing.

I thought the book had a decent amount of fucked up villains and cruel things tbh, neville's parents were a pretty sad affair for example...People aren't just angry about you buying game based on "evil" writer's views, they are angry that you're sponsoring her by doing so, since she will get profits from the game's sales.

I would be ok with the same level of violence, torture and fucked up things in the game tbh.

The funny think is that JK has never said anything like this that trans people are evil just that there should be safe spaces and services dedicated to naturally born women yet somehow that’s a terrible thing to want or express.
It's your eyes. Go watch a video in actual 4K.
Damn nurse forgot my eyedrops again!

For me its the dark tower Saga from Stephen King.
Then again there might be something else out there thats even better but I didn't read many new books in the past 10 years.
