  • Yes but flying is fast and convenient. Having a replacement for fossil fuel operated planes that provide the same functionality to consumers instead of asking them to somehow compromise is the key to success here.

    Don’t get me wrong, I love trains. I just took the train from central Germany to Glasgow this week. But it took about 14 hours, we had to change trains twice and almost missed one of the connections. Friends, on the other hand, who flew the same route arrived within ca. 3h and had basically an entire extra day here.

    That is an utterly useless kind of critique. If you don’t like ‘fantasy slop’ on its artistic merit that is a purely personal opinion that adds nothing to the justified critique of JKR.

    Don’t judge people for what they enjoy. It’s just a fact that HP was a major party of many people’s childhood and that many of us dreamed of going to Hogwarts and casting spells as kids.

    Belittling that does not strengthen your case against JKR’s anti-trans bigotry - just makes you look like a bigot and a snob yourself.






  • Even if protecting players is the intent, it usually just takes me out of the immersive RPG experience.

    I want to explore a location, fight enemies, talk to NPCs etc. - but then I pick up some loot and suddenly I’m incumbered (DnD-style games) or have to play Tetris (Diabolo, Path of Exile, Titan Quest, etc.) to fit my new loot in.

    It breaks my immersion to suddenly switch from resolving epic conflict XYZ to comparing stats between swords because I cannot carry both. It feels like a chore.
