Agreed. I'm fine with hearing news about how WB handles this but there should be no discourse around the game itself.

Yeah but at this point they have to know people will eventually find this stuff and it will blow up on them eventually, therefore they could just either ask for it to be nuked or get someone else, then they don't have to deal with losing a key figure 1 year away from release.they do not actually care unless threatened with financial harm
For the people in this thread who are seem to be amazed that he has a job... Like... Do you think that the 70something millions Americans that voted for Trump are somehow not actually working anywhere?
These peoples are everywhere (and not just in the gaming industry).

I think Nepenthe discussed it in the community thread and that mods have been talking about how to handle it.
Yup, as i posted on the last pageHasn't WB always done and hired questionable shit/people in the past?
The same WB that continues to work with Rowling, the same WB that fired Depp but didnt fire his ex Amber Heard, the same WB that had ronda rousey in MK11.... SURE JAN
There's a distinct difference between Disney and WB. At least one gives a shit about their appearance.
People, even those with views absolutely abhorrent to myself and yourself, still have friends, bonds and all that shit. They're not actively walking around the world just being horrible and hating things. They aren't the villains of their stories. Like, I'm sure if we met the cunt we'd figure our pretty soon that he's a dickhead and wouldn't want to be mates with him but that doesn't mean everyone would think that. IPs like Harry Potter work because they're relatively bland in terms of messaging, it's not like it ever pushed any boundaries in acceptance, IPs like this resonate with all sorts of dickheads as well as the well-meaning.It's so ungodly frustrating to me. To a degree unfathomable.
Like, please - correct me if I'm wrong - but the IP is about making friends and the power of love for the most part. The bonds you make with others, despite their origins and background. Like... insert white guy blinking gif. I don't get it
Oh yes, they definitely have.Hasn't WB always done and hired questionable shit/people in the past?
☝☝☝It's also amusing how most of the people crowing about how we need threads filled with praise for an IP in order to educate people are seldom the ones expected to do that education.
When I say amusing, I mean endlessly frustrating. Being blunt: if you're not the one having to post against a torrent of adoration for an IP that is directly tied to demonstrable harm to trans lives around you and your own life; shut up and sit down.
The bolded part is what amazes me most. Like damn I get wanting to play it safe and dropping Depp, but it's not playing it safe if you don't also drop the person we know for a fact was abusive in that relationship.the same WB that fired Depp but didnt fire his ex Amber Heard, the same WB that had ronda rousey in MK11
This. I like this.
Someone like that should never be in such a high position in any company. It really shows a amazing lack of due diligence on WB and Avalanche.
While true.I feel like if JK's comments didn't dissuade people from picking up the game before, this situation won't do much to sway them either.

While true.
This shows how it's not just Trans Women, but all women can be tossed under the bus. Plus it shoots the Dev rhetoric with an Avada Kedavra.
So maybe people will be more honest at least?

Do JK Rowling's transphobic statements impact your interest on WB's upcoming Harry Potter game?
So, as you may have heard - Harry Potter author JK Rowling has been under fire recently for making an openly anti-transgender joke on Twitter, following a long history of similarly bigoted opinions against trans folk. Her position has been well known for years at this point, but the recent...www.resetera.com
I want to laugh.I want a big title under the usernames of people who defend this game saying "I hate women and trans people"
same thing with ac valhalla and miles morales after all the shit we learnt from ubi and imsomniac, people complain when the news happen but then buy the games regardless.That thread was a trainwreck from what I remember.
While this forum likes to think of itself as woke, it's extremely consumer-driven. The thread for this games next trailer will almost certainly be larger than this one.
A virtual scarlet letter....not a bad idea, not that anyone that would take it would care regardless.I want a big title under the usernames of people who defend this game saying "I hate women and trans people"
