Rowling usually maintains pretty tight control over her work, though. In fact, this quote is part of the article, from that same guy:
I think this means that their ability to subvert is limited. They’ll be stuck with doing stuff Rowling agrees to, which I would expect means we might see a “more diverse” main trio—she’s signed off on a black Hermiome before—and we might see the insertion of extra gay stuff for Dumbledore, or maybe some Jewish students, or anything that plays into her habit of grafting in extra brownie points things that didn’t really exist in the original versions. What we probably won’t see is wholesale departure from or subversion of major plot points and character traits. We won’t get “actually, James Potter was kind of a douche,” we won’t get trannies, etc.
They put a Tranny in the Hogwarts Legacy game and she didn't stop them.
Wasn't that more a hinted at tranny than and out and out necromorph type? Like I swear hey just gave a stocker woman a male voice actor than make the character look like they're on 15 different drugs to live.
No there's a line of dialogue where it says its goblin friend was the only one who understood "when I realized I was a witch instead of a wizard." It's fully explicit.
That's ham-handed even for them.
Ah ok, never played the game, only saw clips because of the drama for streamers because of it so remembered there was something but couldn't remember how in your face it was.
