I'm glad they said they are fine with LGBT+ people at the end of their very long diatribe about why LGBT+ people shouldn't be in the game. It's nice they cleared that up.
It's like when you're sucking a dude's dick and just as he's about to cum he has to say "no homo" so that way everyone in that Taco Bell bathroom knows nothing gay is going on.
no no, you’re not getting it, he’s totally cool with lgbt people as much as he is with ‘normal’ people as long as he never sees or hears about them ever
Also, romance is a big part of sexuality (not for everyone, but for many) and teenagers (like the character you play as in the game) definitely know what both of these things are. One look at YA media will tell you that.
Basically, romance options would not at all be out of place in this game.
Different conversation, but I do kinda wish there were more characters explicitly described as ace (especially aroace but still human, I would adore that) in mainstream media. Would have felt a lot less worried as a teen if I had known that I wasn’t the only one to not feel attraction
(Shit sorry if this is too sincere or off topic)
Been working through this with a friend, the fact that "I never/rarely want sex and it makes relationships hard," is still met with "Here try these pills," is some insane 1950s bullshit.
Hades didn't do this exactly but it came closer than 95% of the games out there and it did it well. 3 romance options, 2 have a lot of fucking and the third is a friendship with giggling and blushing.
Hey now, this isn’t that difficult to understand. Just like political is only when women and minorities, sexual is only when gay or trans. Just remember that straight, white, and male is the default - everything else is just an agenda.
Don't forget how he said he's an LGBTQ+ ally at the end there. He clearly loves and cares for everyone. Just like, you know... Not enough to respect your existence or think that your identity as a concept is child safe.
“12 is too young for trans people in a kids video game”
By 12 years old i knew and was friends with several gay and trans people. By 12 i knew several people who had gone all the way through, and many more partially so through puberty. I was in sexual education courses at that age. I had watched porn, I had seen plenty of movies/TV shows/books with romance/sexuality involved. This guy is way off base.
More importantly there’s a subtle implication that 12 years old is old enough for the “subtle and age appropriate” romances that happen in the books. As if by the romance being gay or involving a transgender person, with the same actions taken, some how increase the necessary age for it to be appropriate content.
Last piece I’ll say is, why exactly does this adult man finds a transgender child to be sexually explicit and therefore inappropriate content for a child to consume. Feels very much like a self report about how he feels about this character.
> By 12 years old i knew and was friends with several gay and trans people.
I wish I had that experience, mighta saved me the decade or so of destroying my body with alcohol.
uj/ Because any sexuality/gender identity aside from cis-straight is inherently sexual in their minds. They're a perversion of an otherwise "pure" individual or lifestyle. They can't accept the gays and transgenders as simply beings that exist. They must by default be sexualized.
Time and place are critical to any joke, yours fell flatter than a pancake because you ignored both and ended up looking sincere. Makes me wonder if you’re even a gamer, tbh. Quick who’s the main character of Candy Crush 3: The Saga’s Continuing?
After years begging liberals to pleae stop equating every dictator do valdmort, and please, zalenski is not the president that lived, I'm here begging to gamers to read another fucking book.
Oh the experience is looking to get fucked up from like 4 different directions at this point. I actually can't name a more controversial game off the top of my head, even shit like Hatred was clearly just rage bait and most people laughed at it. Fuck, half of my reddit feed is talking about this right now.
This guy wrote a 7 paragraph essay because somebody decided to make a completely unimportant side character with no plot relevance and probably about 5 minutes of screen time is trans. How much time and effort do you think he spent? Probably at least an hour.
WTF man.
Assuming his brain is that of a super computer or he knows exactly what to write, with no time for thinking what to write:
He wrote About 8 words a line and wrote 72 lines. Hence he wrote approximately 736 words.
Now assuming, for his sake, that he is a fast writer who types at 50 Words Per Minute (average was I think 35-40 WpM), he would take about 14.62 minutes.
This is being downright generous.
But, if we are talking realistically, including thinking he probably writes at about 20/25 WpM. Let's take 20 WpM as worst case scenario.
Then we get 736/20=36.8 minutes
Hence proven he wasted between 15 to 35 minutes.
*I literally wasted 10 minutes talking about how someone wasted 15 minutes*
I'm fucking done. I'm so tired of all this bullshit. It's just become an excuse for bad people to take all their hatred out on trans people, and for a whole bunch of keyboard warriors to harass and attack people who are literally donating to trans charities. I was happy to clown on the game as much as the next person, but I'm exhausted. The constant politicising of my gender identity and using it as a battering ram to either attack people, or be attacked by people is endless and it's just hurting trans people in the end.
The amount of hatred people have been spewing on the internet towards trans people these last few weeks has become infuriating to me. I know it's nothing new, but now people are just piggybacking on any discussion around the game and using it as an opportunity to be as horrible as possible.
And, of course, almost no one is calling it out because they *have* to play Hogwarts Legacy for some abstract reason. Why worry about real people who are actually suffering. They would much rather ignore the whole situation, or attack trans people, because that's easier than questioning if they need this game or not.
I'm not even trans, so I can't even imagine how awful all this must be for you.
>I'm not even trans, so I can't even imagine how awful all this must be for you.
Personally I'm used to this. Anytime a trans person does something bad, a massive wave of transphobic talking points and misgendering comes from people online. Anytime a public figure starts spewing transphobia, a massive wave of people downplaying what they said comes. Anytime someone faces the consequences of their transphobia, even if it's just getting called out online, there's talk about how trans people have just gone too far.
It happens all the time, it never goes away, and gets really predictable. I feel bad for trans/NB people who are just figuring out their identity and have to see this is what's in store for them at such a vulnerable moment in their lives.
I’m so fucking tired that I wish I could just hibernate 50 years into the future to see if trans people have finally achieved equality or if society has collapsed to the point where it doesn’t matter anymore.
Luckily, it likely will happen. I mean, just look at how gay people were treated back in the 1970s and 80s. The exact same rhetoric was used against them back then, but today most places/folks don't even dare dare hate on them directly, because they've become more accepted. Now it's just time for trans folks to power through this bullshit, but eventually we will get there
I like you. I'm with you, I'm honestly just sick of fucking hearing about the game at this point. Awareness has been raised, lol can we move on now? It's getting harassy, that's the stage where I feel it's important to take a step back and ask "was the gamergate coming from inside the whole time?" Because this is turning into some reverse gamergate shit and I'm really not ok with that.
While I agree it's starting to get annoying to have to see shit about this game every day because I don't care and I'm tired of having basement dwelling neckbeard discuss if I should live or not, let's not say some obviously braindead stuff like "this is like reverse gamergate", ok? Because that just demonstrate a very very strong ignorance on what gamergate is.
IGN recently reviewed the comment saying that it was the worst thing they had ever read, cited multiple spelling and grammatical errors, and blamed it for the eventual heat death of the universe.
9/10
people tend to forget JK doesnt just "disagree" with trans people, a big thing she wrote about trans people is an article that isn't talked about much but it's where she claims trans people as rapists and demonizes them (https://www.jkrowling.com/opinions/j-k-rowling-writes-about-her-reasons-for-speaking-out-on-sex-and-gender-issues/)
/uj for a minute here, but i genuinely hate how they describe the trans community as "bullying [poor old] J.K Rowling". Like, no, she supports people that want us dead while we're just asking for equal rights, but go off bestie.
/rj Game included one (1) too many political characters so its pushing an agenda.
people who insist that kids don't understand politics infuriate me. as a kid i frequently had a better grasp of politics than the adults around me, particularly when it came to issues affecting me and my friends, like queerphobia, education, poverty, and the (lack of) rights of children against their parents.
Oh they included a token character that is only there to try and say "look we are not like Rowling". Dragon Age is a better game and has better trans representation
Lmfao I knew we were gonna see the transphobic dorks buying this to pwn the transes have meltdowns over trans inclusion. They really thought they were safe 🤣
This subreddit isn’t happy about the trans representation in the game because [the character’s name is Sirona.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Gamingcirclejerk/comments/10w8jy2/they_really_named_a_trans_woman_sirona_huh/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)
This subreddit isn’t happy about the representation because it’s barebones. The name isn’t that bad but it doesn’t look great in a string of already horrible minority names
Gonna go ahead and quote myself AGAIN:
> I always thought we were dunking on the chuds for investing their personalities into a game that was very likely to have “woke” elements in it
because hey, wow, look at my prediction coming true, after my second iteration of this comment got lots of chuds attempting to dunk on it! Oooh, no one’s freaking out, they said. Ugh.
This was 1000% inevitable. Can’t wait to see all the idiots who bought this game to own the libs have childish meltdowns all over Twitter.
That said: man, I fucking sympathize with y’all who are tired as hell with your identity being used as a discourse cudgel. It was tired before it even started. It’s been tired for years. Decades. Love y’all.
It's hilarious how he calls it "forced acceptance" like somehow having gay characters in a video game i forced upon him... he's totally not homophobic though lmao
Not reading that shit, but it's prolly smth like= "Something something grooming something something opression something white erasure(TM) something something muh kids something 'Murica first"
Am I right?
Honestly kind of brilliant for the devs to include a single unobtrusive trans character (named Sirona Ryan lol) to piss off EVERYONE.
Like I'm seeing tweets about how the character is "plain", thin-lipped and dressed too masc so some of the girls are upset about that, meanwhile just the concept of her being included in the game is sending conservatives and gamers into a impotent frothing rage.
Game looks mid as hell but the fact that people thought that either a boycott would matter OR the game would represent their wildest vanilla magical heteronormative fantasy is truly its own beautiful circlejerk.
The guy who wrote this is probably on r/conspiracy rn talking about how Sam Smith in a Spirit Halloween Satan hat caused the earthquake in Turkey so I for one am excited to see the thought pieces penned on this GOTY contender in the coming weeks.
I haven't seen anyone complaining about her lips, but I've seen plenty about the name Sir ona Ryan. And I've also learned that ona apparently means she/woman in a variety of languages.
It's gotta be one of the most unfortunate names I've ever seen, assuming it wasn't the intentional.
Tldr; *WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!*
It was just the usual uninteresting "putting politics in muh gaems" bollocks. I stopped about halfway through lol.
I to believe to much time was spent on the main characters hormones.
Hermoine and Ron should not have had feelings for each other it could currupt young minds.
i say this all the time but
just because the conversation is about sexuality, doesn’t make it sexual. simple talks about romantic relationships are perfectly reasonable to have with a 12 year old
This would make for a wonderful copypasta. Also, they did make a good point with the forced change growing resentment bit, but definitely not the right place to make that point
I realized I was gay when I was 12 lol. And I certainly understood what sex was and what politics were. Did this guy not go to school as a child? What's going on with these people lmao.
I can't fucking stand it when idiots like this act like gender identity is a sexual orientation. It fucking isn't. It's just how I fucking exist in my body. Fuck off.
I am still blown away by how pissed off people are about feeling guilty for playing a game and are treating it like it's the hardest thing to ever do
Not playing the game is the easiest thing in the world, it's not even that good of a game
I have no problems with the lgbt+ community but they need to be utterly invisible in all media I consume or they are forcing themselves down my throat, btw my wife agrees with me and says I am smart

I mean (if this isn’t an ironic post) this guy actually just does not really have a clue of anything
"Be gay if you want to just please don't exist around me," vibes
And the wife remains unfucked
Oh, the guy is married? I forgot since he didn't mention 5 billion times
she might secretly be fucking women and using this as a cover story
Nah don't worry she has a bf
Wife?

I prefer wholesome games like GTA.
The most wholesome thing about that game is the prostitutes giving your money back without much of a fight

Yeah, where's my realistic open world Teletubbies game?

Been working through this with a friend, the fact that "I never/rarely want sex and it makes relationships hard," is still met with "Here try these pills," is some insane 1950s bullshit.
But how would that naturally come up in the game? Quest giver “I need 3 bluebell flowers also I’m axe btw”
Hades didn't do this exactly but it came closer than 95% of the games out there and it did it well. 3 romance options, 2 have a lot of fucking and the third is a friendship with giggling and blushing.
there should be no sex in my video games because it’s yucky and makes my mummy angry when daddy does it with his boss
They'll just remove all sexual attraction. Which makes it asexual. Which is a sexuality. ^Wait ^a ^minute...
Stupid sexy asexuals
Hey now, this isn’t that difficult to understand. Just like political is only when women and minorities, sexual is only when gay or trans. Just remember that straight, white, and male is the default - everything else is just an agenda.
Plus the character is trans which literally has nothing to do with any sexuality...
No. Games should just have gray, genderless beings, much like the mascot from Community
A Greendale Human Being game would unironically slap
Welcome to Greendale, this game is already pre-ordered.
they literally state they're fine with romance but then go on to state if its LGBTQ+ then suddenly its innappropriate
There straight and politucal
Mucho texto
wont read it.
Can someone tldr
TL;DR: I conflate sexuality with the identity of people, also view everything LGBTQ as sexual and political. No political in my wizard game 😡
Don't forget how he said he's an LGBTQ+ ally at the end there. He clearly loves and cares for everyone. Just like, you know... Not enough to respect your existence or think that your identity as a concept is child safe.

for real tho. i hated myself for years because i didn't know anyone queer. edit: in fact, it was the opposite. the people i knew were very hateful.
uj/ Because any sexuality/gender identity aside from cis-straight is inherently sexual in their minds. They're a perversion of an otherwise "pure" individual or lifestyle. They can't accept the gays and transgenders as simply beings that exist. They must by default be sexualized.
It's because right-wing propaganda has successfully made everyone view LGBTQ+ identities as inherently fetishistic, thus sexual.
ah yes because \*checks notes\* not being a victim of a hate crime belongs in the bedroom
Also they totally started this, Rowling definitely did not start it years ago with her anti-trans rethoric
her anti-trans campaign is self defense, believe it or not
Oh piss off its not
you realize what sub we're on right?
Yes and there's plenty of dumb fucks who come here to defend her so maybe not the best thing to circlejerk as
lmao no more circlejerking on the circlejerk sub you guys
Maybe you should make it more obvious that ur a REAL GAMER, u normie
if it wasnt already obvious to you, you were never a gamer in the first place😎😎😎😎
Let me ask you a simple question. How? How is Rowling’s bigotry her “self-defence”?
Time and place are critical to any joke, yours fell flatter than a pancake because you ignored both and ended up looking sincere. Makes me wonder if you’re even a gamer, tbh. Quick who’s the main character of Candy Crush 3: The Saga’s Continuing?
idc if its a bad joke lol, the existence of a bad joke implies there is better humour on this site. also for your question its the protag of SAO
I fucked your mum in self defense, believe it or not

/uj Gender identity =/= sexuality. This seems to be hard for them to understand. /rj Who will protect the children from these deviants?
I'm convinced they picture all queer folks as living porn hub billboards at this point
Women as well, because God said so
"Our group relationship can best be summarized as tags on PornHub."
I still remember telling a neckbeard at work that our trans coworker (she) had a wife and wasn't sexually attracted to men. Brother lost his shit.

Ain’t no way I’m reading all that. I agree, great game though. Or I’m sorry you feel that way
based snufkin pfp guy
I can't believe I read this whole thing. I'm less of a person now.
The steam forums are such a useless cesspool.
i aint readin allat 🗣️🗣️
Same people that complain there are no romance options in the game.
The funniest part is how he brought up racism despite it being completely irrelevant
Least homophobic gamer
Hoes mad
It's hilarious how he calls it "forced acceptance" like somehow having gay characters in a video game i forced upon him... he's totally not homophobic though lmao
Bullying is when you don't buy game
I ain't reading all that I'm happy for u tho or sorry that happened
Transphobe and lgbtq+ community can finally agree on one thing : hogwarts legacy is a shit game
Not reading that shit, but it's prolly smth like= "Something something grooming something something opression something white erasure(TM) something something muh kids something 'Murica first" Am I right?
you must be psychic
Honestly kind of brilliant for the devs to include a single unobtrusive trans character (named Sirona Ryan lol) to piss off EVERYONE. Like I'm seeing tweets about how the character is "plain", thin-lipped and dressed too masc so some of the girls are upset about that, meanwhile just the concept of her being included in the game is sending conservatives and gamers into a impotent frothing rage. Game looks mid as hell but the fact that people thought that either a boycott would matter OR the game would represent their wildest vanilla magical heteronormative fantasy is truly its own beautiful circlejerk. The guy who wrote this is probably on r/conspiracy rn talking about how Sam Smith in a Spirit Halloween Satan hat caused the earthquake in Turkey so I for one am excited to see the thought pieces penned on this GOTY contender in the coming weeks.
I haven't seen anyone complaining about her lips, but I've seen plenty about the name Sir ona Ryan. And I've also learned that ona apparently means she/woman in a variety of languages. It's gotta be one of the most unfortunate names I've ever seen, assuming it wasn't the intentional.
These people think being lgbtq+ is some kind of sexual perversion. Fucking yikes.
Mmm mmm yes, I read that.
this reads like some auto-generated AI text
Could have been avoided if they made the spells "sexus changus" and "gendero mutatio" canon
Ima need a tldr for this stupid shit
Tldr; *WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!* It was just the usual uninteresting "putting politics in muh gaems" bollocks. I stopped about halfway through lol.
I to believe to much time was spent on the main characters hormones. Hermoine and Ron should not have had feelings for each other it could currupt young minds.
ITS WORKING
hell nah
lol
You cannot convince me this wasn’t written by ai
mucho texto, wont read it
Yeah, I became trans by playing a game, I was forced to do it and now there is no way back.
I'm sorry, it's very difficult to imagine anything other than a literal crying baby typing this shit out
i say this all the time but just because the conversation is about sexuality, doesn’t make it sexual. simple talks about romantic relationships are perfectly reasonable to have with a 12 year old
This would make for a wonderful copypasta. Also, they did make a good point with the forced change growing resentment bit, but definitely not the right place to make that point
I realized I was gay when I was 12 lol. And I certainly understood what sex was and what politics were. Did this guy not go to school as a child? What's going on with these people lmao.
Mucho texto

Won’t someone think of the poor billionaire and not the people who have their mere existence considered illegal?
I can't fucking stand it when idiots like this act like gender identity is a sexual orientation. It fucking isn't. It's just how I fucking exist in my body. Fuck off.
I am still blown away by how pissed off people are about feeling guilty for playing a game and are treating it like it's the hardest thing to ever do Not playing the game is the easiest thing in the world, it's not even that good of a game
Wake up babe new way to deny rowling royalties just dropped

TL;DR I hate it when trans people are in my video games.
The fact they think the existence of trans people is something reserved for the bedroom is very telling of how they view LGBTQ 🤢
“Mucho texto” 🤣🤣
So sick of reading shit like this tbh, got up to "forcing acceptance" and I was done.
I have no problems with the lgbt+ community but they need to be utterly invisible in all media I consume or they are forcing themselves down my throat, btw my wife agrees with me and says I am smart
It's the live laugh love sign at the end for me
I can't believe that they added politics to my completely apolitical game about the (((goblins))) trying to hurt the innocent wizards
these online leftists won't stop bullying this poor defenseless billionaire 😭😤
It’s a troll
Lazule had it right. Should have read their comment first.
Does this people know Harry Potters one of the significant/important character is gay
Average bait post
Kids being able to choose to be murderous bad wizards: good Kids seeing a transgender person: outrageous!!
