You can't hold the ocean with a broom, so PC Gamer did the honest thing. It was a no-brainer that if this game was going to be moderately good the Potter fandom would make it a success.
I purposely look for faults in this game but so far it has been incredibly immersive and a wonderful translation of the source material into an interactive world. I bought this game for my wife, and I was naturally critical going into it because I've become wary of games released at launch. I know I'm not alone in that I will never look at Wired, Kotaku, Gamespot, and other game publication outlets the same way because they couldn't get past their view on the Rowling and tried to sour the reception of this game because of it. I say this because today Kotaku and Gamespot released their reviews that scored the game as a mediocre title. Well, before this thread gets locked I just want to give recognition to PC Gamer for giving a truly honest review while also expressing their support for the Trans community. And you can't just shut every single concern down as being anti-trans. But the only reason I point out the YMCA thing is that there are discussions that need to be had, with all respect. I know the stats show that trans people usually show no threats like that. In simplicity, there shouldn't be anything wrong with that. The reason this applies is because, from my understanding, JKR was originally just showing support for the safety of biological women.
What's the answer for situations like this? The only reason I'm pointing this out is because this isn't a discussion where only one side is legit, no questions asked. They basically told her in an indirect way that her concerns don't matter as much as trans rights. In a YMCA in Ohio, a mother had a pretty heated discussion at the front desk because she was in the locker room with her young daughter, and a trans woman was in there with her full "package" hanging there for everyone to see. For instance, take this situation that happened recently. But surely you guys can see this is a sensitive topic on a lot of different levels, not just one level. I'm all for trans people being treated with respect and having their rights honored. This discussion is still going strong, so I'm just going to throw this out there to see what your opinions are.
