Alright, so watching the first minute of this. the guy (who claims to live in a country called Ukraine) says that anyone who is going to buy "Hogwarts: Legacy" should turn it off. Because apparently, prostituting your state to the West wasn't enough, you have to prostitute your culture as well.
I haven't bought a game in years, but I'll make sure to buy this one. Just to piss off this loser.
Remember to wait a week before buying, just because if there's HUGE issues with the game thanks to streamers and social media, you'll hear about it within 48 hours to a week of release
That is a problem, unless you own the store, western middle men always get a cut.
More just something I learnt from experience and back in the 'good times' as a gamer when I could go to TB for a review, still got his 'we don't preorder' posters around.

Yes, I meant 'freezing' the funds because Russian Dev Bad or something.

Oh hell yeah, I know not to preorder. The devs may buckle before the mob tomorrow, and then I'm screwed.
Well, the Stalker shovelware license belongs to MS, what's the chance that Ukrainian trash who pushed war propaganda at a MS event and forced Playground Games to cut their showing short to accommodate it will drop the tools if MS gives the "evil Russians" the money. Fuck the Stalker people, seriously - I think it's their fault that PG left Microsoft. The disrespect was unbelievable.
How can they buckle? They are Russian. They can't become non-Russian.
Yep. And it's the lame whinging propaganda that makes it the second reason I'd want to play the game, simply to spite this freak. The first reason being those robot girls.
Which I'm slightly joking about that modern women are so bad, men would rather have faceless robots that embody the image of femininity than actual women.
I REALLY don't give a shit about if the developers are Russian or haven't said anything about the war, I just don't want this game to be another Cyberpunk 2077 or something similar where it wasn't ready for release or they over promised and didn't deliver.
Opens up with a preface which insults viewers who are going to buy Hogwarts assuming they all know of its "infamy" when realistically thats just REEEing about the TERF that owns it.
I can't believe one of his points is about how the developers won't comment on politics or religion- Then goes on a rant about how the game is about Soviet Russia and communism...
By this dudes logic no game developer is allowed to ever have pro-country views, RIP Fallout..
He also rants about people pre-ordering a game which didn't have a release date... So that also screws over Star Citizen fans
I endured 10 minutes of this absolute idiot spouting bullshit reasons in order for people not to buy it, any of these reasons can be applied to a multitude of other games.
tldw/r; A Ukrainian scrapes the barrel for anything that might be deemed as negative for this game because it portrays Russia in a positive light and the founders and a bunch of devs are also Russian. (Basically Russia bad, don't buy this)
On the side note, the footage he actually had in this clip made the game look really cool. I hadn't heard about this so now i'm actually going to look into it. Thanks to this retards failed propaganda I might actually buy a new game this decade.
According to your logic, J.K. Rowling is feminism, and by extension, so is Hogwarts: Legacy. This guy is against Hogwarts: Legacy. By extension, he is the good guy, and he is condemning this Russian game.
Video maker made comments approval-only. I left one, it's still unpublished.
I mentioned how "ties to a sanctioned Russian bank" would cover literally everyone in Russia or had a business interest there at any point because the ECB filed sanctions against every "Structurally Important Financial Institution", including UniCredit's Russian branch, which has literally no ties to the Russian government. UniCredit is Italian, and is considered structurally important in Italy as well.
I also made one talking about how Zelensky is drafting people who aren't old enough to play this game. That's not approved either.

I'm not even sure I want to play it. I just want to support the developers and piss off this prostituted loser.
My only worry is that Western thieves will steal the money of the devs.

How can they buckle? They are Russian. They can't become non-Russian.
I'll be honest, that's the only reason I listened for over a minute. I thought maybe they found feminist ties in the developers or something.
Oh, you sweet summer child.
Yep. And it's the lame whinging propaganda that makes it the second reason I'd want to play the game, simply to spite this freak. The first reason being those robot girls.
Which I'm slightly joking about that modern women are so bad, men would rather have faceless robots that embody the image of femininity than actual women.
So that's why we can have sex robots....

He shits on gamers multiple times throughout, and then locks comments due to "bots" too. This dude is one of the biggest faggots imaginable.
I'm not going to spite-buy a game, he he kindly reminded me to spite-wishlist it, which I did.
Yeah, that showed up in my rec list as well. Ignored it, like 90% of fhe rest of the trash that they put in my "recommended" list.
I've never heard of Atomic Heart and I'm not going to trust a random YT "recommended" video about it even if I had.
Hmm, I wonder if Wojicki is artificially boosting it.
Personally?
Wouldn't be the first time. I remember on March 8th they pushed some year+ old video hypothesizing how a world without men would be.
That was her personal intervention?
Well, I know of at least 5 other people who got the same recommendation that day who have no subscriptions in common with me.
Seems like it was an order from above.
Don't buy it because it includes Denuvo.
Glorious console master race has never heard of Denuvo.
Denuvo Anti-Cheat (not Anti-Tamper) is available for current-gen consoles, and an Anti-Emulator protection for the Switch is also available.
"Don't buy the game because the developers haven't condemned Russia"
I don't care. You can suck off Zelenskyyyyyyyy in your own time. Have they supported feminism? That's a more important issue.
According to your logic, J.K. Rowling is feminism, and by extension, so is Hogwarts: Legacy. This guy is against Hogwarts: Legacy. By extension, he is the good guy, and he is condemning this Russian game.
Chain logic only works for negative outcomes, not positive.
It makes good things bad, not bad things good.
I'll give you an example.
I previously liked (insert Internet personality here)
But they support Hogwarts Legacy,
Hogwarts Legacy is JK Rowling.
JK Rowling is a radfem.
Therefore (insert Internet personality here) is not to be trusted.
So I am not to be trusted?
Do you really want me to answer that?
Yes.
I trust you to be honest, but I don't trust you to admit that you're wrong, especially on issues where you've been consistently wrong.
That's better than I expected...
fuck off and surrender already
Well, good news, it’s free on Gamepass so I don’t have to buy it! I’ll probably get it later on steam if it’s good.
Geez, Gamepass keeps getting more and more tempting.
Saw it on my feed, and I've been really curious about the game, so I gave it a shot.
Got to the point about whining about Hogwarts Legacy and mumbling about 'muh ukraine' and 'muh russia', downvoted and went on my way.
Still tempted to by it, but if I do, I'll be waiting a couple of weeks after it's release to see if it's actually all that it looks to be or no.
I did last night actually. Game looks cool and if it fucking works as advertised I'll get it. That is my only stipulation.
The comment section is even weirder to read. 99% seem to be eating it up. Almost too much. Like... sock puppet levels of agreement. It's strange.

Yeah, got it too. Definitely artificially pushed. With all the retarded "arguments" you would expect.
From the same people who bitch because apparently Gazprom invested in it - YOU PLAYED MW2 DURING IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN, STFU.
That being said, I'm most likely going to play it. I liked Prey 2017 and bioshock a lot, so this looks like right up my alley.
