Hogwarts Legacy - Harry Potter open world action RPG prequel set in the late 1800s

Right... much better to have paedophilic sex with them and really set them up for life??

My grandma got married at 15. She's done pretty well for herself. And it's not "paedophilic sex", as already said last page.

In the UK if a man has sex with a 15 year old girl he's going away for paedophilia. There's no argument here.

If you are the result clearly she should have waited.

Over here the age of consent is 15, and 15 year olds can fuck whoever they want. I think they can only marry once they turn 18 though.

In celebration of empress, here is a link of all banned mods that remove the troon shit from hogwarts & other games. It also has the other body and cloth mods that were nuked by the nexus :

Good stuff. My woman wants to buy this game for me as a Valentine's day gift, so I can own this game without paying for it myself. I want to convince her that the nude mods are part of the base game.

their thread of Dunkey video is locked, bans distributed
theit tip toeing around the topic to avoid ban is amusing, reminds me old shit times under soviet garbage regime where people did simial crap

Funniest part is he spent more time playing Hogwarts Legacy, the game he's not supposed to like, than Forspoken, an SJW-approved game that oozes with cringe.

He just a business man making advertisement money from his forum of freaks, unstable and easy to manipulate folks .There was a niche for totalitarian woke forums he took it and is exploiting it.

well one picture can sum it all, thats what i seen when looking at resetera today, i swear i have not photoshopped anything :

On the Codex you are called a cuck if you don't think a 15-year-old girl with a man in his 40s is totally cool.

You are. She's not your daughter, why give a fuck about what goes inside her?

I should think that as a homosexual you'd be more sympathetic to kids getting groomed by old men.

 

[Harthwain]

Yes, it's compensation, that's the point.

Then you're making a completely different point, again, because I don't think there is any compensation. I see a discovery more than anything else. Harry Potter has pretty much the same point of view as the readers, which are supposedly the children, considering the book is directed at them. But the way it works, and how almost every character suddenly becomes a guide to the wizarding world, is very natural way of introducing pretty much everyone into this world, aside from the target audience.

What do you mean? Just be the right shade of brown or pray towards Mecca enough times a day and you get away with it 9/10 times in the UK.

Nano, you need to take a break from this thread. Just give it a rest for a day. You're starting to slip into dementia.

Dementors are among the foulest creatures that walk this earth. They infest the darkest, filthiest places, they glory in decay and despair, they drain peace, hope, and happiness out of the air around them... Get too near a Dementor and every good feeling, every happy memory will be sucked out of you. If it can, the Dementor will feed on you long enough to reduce you to something like itself... soulless and evil. You will be left with nothing but the worst experiences of your life, and you will just be an empty shell that lost its soul.

 

[Semiurge]

Also, being sexually attracted to children is literally what pedophilia is. Thanks for proving my point for me, I guess?

15 year olds aren't children. You can't tell me you don't remember being a horny 15 year old boy.

Oh yes they are, mentally. That's what counts, not whether they can reproduce.

It's compensation when adults feel cozy with it, and the popularity-with-adults phenomenon is the thing we're interested in, no? It's no great shakes if some kid's book becomes popular with kids, it happens from time to time. But it's something of note when a kid's book becomes wildly popular with adults, that's much rarer.

The answer I'm giving is the correct one: for large numbers of middle-class English (and more broadly White) people, it was a retreat to a cozy power fantasy as compensation for alienation in a world in which the English (and more generally White people) were losing power as a nation/as nations, becoming demographically marginalized, personally powerless, hated by their governments, and irrelevant - it happened at a cusp moment, as one thing (English/UK/US, etc., power, traditions and sense of destiny) was finally fading out, and another (increasing neoliberalism/globalism, with the wearisome "anomalies" it brings) was on the rise.

Another way of putting it might be that it represented a cheerier sort of ersatz "home" (a place where they were special and belonged) as a psychologically satisficing substitute for the real home they were losing.

I think the simpler answer is that a lot of modern adults are stunted mental children due to an overly coddled upbringing.

People in Western countries have had overly coddled upbringings since the period of prosperity after the post-War recovery. I think this was something that happened at a particular time for more specific reasons.

A retreat to a cozy fantasy - I could buy that. But a retreat to a cozy POWER fantasy? I am not seeing it. To me it calls for Occam's razor.

In the first book Lee Jordan was black (or at least I assumed so, because he had dreads, which is typical hairstyle for black people). Angelina Johnson had hairstyle that looked like "worms coming out of her head" (meaning dreads, again). Cho Chang is an asian name, but she appears in the third book. So even then and there you had some (implied) racial diversity, even if not very obvious. I think your impression of "white power" comes mostly from the fact that some a lot of characters weren't really described in depth (or the other way around - were pretty much obvious and encouraged to think that other characters are also white, because otherwise they would've been described as different more clearly), but this should suffice to prove that Hogwarts wasn't really mono-ethnic school.

You also keep implying that the political correctness weighted heavily on the mind of the people back then (before year 2000), but to me it sounds more like an anachronistic superimposing the lens of the Current Year on the past works of Rowling, when they weren't at all political (or at least not as political as they became later on). Then again, I am not British so me seeing a school for wizard dominated by white people was pretty much normal sight and not a reason to get "Ah, home, sweet home...!" feeling. So you can see why I am doubtful about this being the reason for the books' popularity (including worldwide).

I would argue it's been going since the 1950s.

The Cold War, as in the existential possibility of annihilation that was the Cold War, did a real number on society's long term thinking. Virtually no nation on earth ever attempted to conceive the world past 2000. That just didn't happen. The world was *going* to end. Might as well drive up costs in everything and make the last generation of modern people's lives as cushy as possible.

When the Cold War ended in 1991 there was such an economic boom the world powers figured the costs would sort themselves out.

It didn't, but multiple generations of post-Cold-War kids were raised to live like the world was ending.

Also, holy shit this thread. So now we're at the pedophilia phase?

You keep throwing out what look like irrelevant straw-things questioning points I haven't made, and I'm baffled as to why, but perhaps it's my fault for not making my point clearer. I've tried

Yes, but then again, so are most women never mind their age. If we as a species would expect otherwise we would have faced extinction already eons ago.

Really? I questioned the "power fantasy" angle, shortening it to just fantasy. There is no reason for looking for a deeper meaning when a simple one would suffice.

You're also talking about Harry Potter being a retreat for "White people", so I pointed out that Rowling from the very beginning had people of color in the books. Back when there were no social media and even the Google Search (the book released in 1997), so nobody was going to burn Rowling - a debuting author at the time - for not being politically correct (by not writing about them at all).

Hogwart's Legacy, by comparison, is Harry Potter amped up to eleven, because of the social media and the political correctness getting stronger by aforementioned social media amplifying the voices of the few and "video game journalism" feeding off of the "controversies" (so the waves are even larger). I agree it's stupidly ahistorical and unrealistic, given the timeline, even for the setting, but it is still in line with Rowling's Harry Potter not being an exclusive school for "White people". And as such I can't agree with this being the reason for the books popularity.

Hopefully that explains why I made the points that I made when responding to you.
