    The game was one of the best selling of the year. There are people who will mindlessly buy into anything because it’s Harry Potter the same way there are people who will mindlessly buy into anything because it’s Star Wars or Marvel.

    I really want to believe it will be a flop, but while it definitely won’t do as well as the movies, I’m not putting too much stock into consoomers having a backbone.

      Yeah I don’t think it’ll flop unless it’s genuinely bad. Maybe ina few seasons it’ll lose viewership if it’s mid but otherwise it’s probably guaranteed a win for HBO.

      Really wish that money was spent adapting other fantasy fiction though

        I can’t even bring myself to pirate it tbh. I used to like Harry Potter, but it’s been completely contaminated by Rowling’s bigotry (and realising just how problematic the books are)

        Mechanically it looks OK but deeply confused

        Like it was a soulslike for people who suck at actual souls games but with ubisoft open world shit and it was marketed as if it was an MMO despite being single player only

        Really don’t see much appeal
