Recently a developer created a simulation game to satirize the purchase of Hogwarts Legacy, with all of this happening due to the controversy surrounding the game.

While the developers have made an effort to explain the unrelated and separate Hogwarts Legacy from JK Rowling, the comments and actions of publisher Warner Bros.

Perhaps for that same reason, a developer boycotting the game created a satirical title called Hogwarts Legacy Purchase Simulator. The game is told from the perspective of a customer gamer who received a message from Warner Bros CEO David Zaslav urging gamers to buy the game to support the developers, after which a person named Ashley objected for the reason. JK Rowling directly profits from the game.
As for gameplay then gamers can buy as many copies of Hogwarts Legacy as they want, Ashley objected and another person nicknamed “Your Gamer Friend” said that they also bought it because Twitch streamer Asmongold said that this will infuriate the “snowflakes” that are trying to ruin the game. The game ends with JK Rowling claiming that the player is “defending gender rights” or criticizing the player for “silenting women” depending on how many copies of the game the player buys. For any gamer wanting to try the game, it’s a pity that it’s no longer available and the game page is also getting a 404 error, and it’s not clear if it’ll ever appear again.
Hogwarts Legacy Purchase Simulator demonstrates a clear opposition to the game as the title has several articles published while playing talking about proposed anti-transgender laws in the US and UK, with one quote JK Rowling directly publicly supports some of these measures.
At this point, even though sales of Hogwarts Legacy have dropped in its second week of sales, the game is still topping many charts, and as versions for PS4, Xbox One, and Switch have yet to be released, the game has yet to be released. will still be quite popular for a while. Temporarily not discussing who is right and who is wrong, perhaps cases like this will continue in the future and partly affect the experience of many gamers.
