Just pirate. Do not inflate Epic Games' numbers. All corporations are evil, but I think we can all agree that Tim Sweeney is leagues above Gabe Newell in terms of being an utter piece of shit.

Want to support the developers? Guess what. They already got the money from Epic, so whether or not you claim the game doesn't make a difference. And even if it did, none of that would go towards the actual devs.

    JK Rowling has openly said that she also sees piracy as an endorsement of her fascist views. She looks at the download numbers and thinks to herself "trans women have finally lost"

    The point is not to buy it because Rowling is a piece of shit. A penny in her pocket is too much.

    Unfortunately we've already lost. Even if she had no investments and had to live off her current billions she'd still be able to inject £100,000 of caviar and racehorse semen (oh sorry, printer ink is actually more valuable) into her veins every night and still be good for the next 30+ years. In one sense, whether she makes money off you or not changes nothing because she'll still be able to fund all the anti trans shit she wants with her current empire.

    Billionaires are a mistake of society and she's a garbage person but whether one person or 500,000 people buy Hogwarts is quite literally meaningless to her wealth because she already won capitalism.

    so one of the gals at lesbian board game night really enjoys the potterverse. there was no way she wasn't playing HogLeg. our group's solution was to buy one copy of the game but share it, and let our extended friends groups know so we could share the one copy between like 50 people.
