Joke is, I might actually grab it for free. So long as Rowling isn’t profiting from it, I don’t actively hate HP (despite its bad worldbuilding and unsubtle racism 😬). Especially that iirc there were a few small things in the game kinda flipping off Rowling, so the devs working on it probably didn’t like her either.
I’m trans, and HP was a big part of my childhood, then Rowling got brain-mould and somewhat ruined it retroactively (tbh even before her current TERF saga she kept tweeting bollocks, like that whole “wizards used to shit in the corner and magic it away” thing 🤢)
When a game is “free” the publisher isn’t just donating it for funzies. Either Epic pays them (Epic is spending money to get people to its platform) or the publisher is using the game to advertise other games, which has value to them.
Its an okay game, its built in the same skin as dragon age inquisition. The story is okay, it feels dated though. I liked exploring and collecting stuff but they make you wait until half way through the story to be able to open certain doors, so you have to go back later.
I never finished it, it felt very repetitive after a short while. The combat is super boring.

Epic pays the publisher a flat fee for permission to distribute the game for free for the week.
Your individual download doesn’t give Rowling any less or more, but shows support for her IP, and tells epic they made a good decision to support her.
I’ve heard great things about the game, but for me the download does support Rowling, so it’s a hard pass.

if you’re gonna play it, just remember that your teacher dies at the end and can’t be saved, and that rockwood is the one that cursed anne

Hogwarts legacy isn’t based on the books plot?
Am I missing the joke?

With knowing nothing about the game’s plot, why do I need to remember these things?
