This gets fuzzy but, by some estimates, Harry Potter on its own is bigger than the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe. Harry Potter is one of its crown jewels, a series that has made more money than the likes of Batman. is meanwhile between a rock and a hard place. Even were this inaccurate, it is fair to say that she's not short of an ivory backscratcher or two. Rowling's net worth but the most oft-cited is around the $1 billion mark. For context, there are various estimates of J.K. But it seems unlikely that the blacklisting of Hogwarts Legacy will impact the author in any meaningful way. Rowling does of course continue to make money from the Harry Potter and Wizarding World franchises, which is where the arguments for banning or shunning associated products ends up. Rowling is a prominent and vocal critic of the bill. The controversy around Rowling's views seems unlikely to abate, particularly as they so intersect with ongoing cultural battles: The biggest story in British politics at the moment is the UK government blocking the Scottish Parliament's Gender Recognition Bill. At the time of writing, the top stickied thread on the gaming discussion section is a Hogwarts Legacy meme competition, while the top user thread is about the game's pre-loads going live. ResetEra itself is a forum set up as a breakaway from NeoGAF, which is still around but has arguably been relegated in the pecking order, and so perhaps unsurprisingly NeoGAF is going all-in on Hogwarts Legacy. 2021's ban on promotion was prompted by ResetEra members discovering that a producer on Hogwarts Legacy had a history of making anti-social justice videos. ResetEra's stance has been deeply sceptical about the game since day one, and the forum's general atmosphere can be fairly described as left-leaning. This may be unprecedented, but it's not wholly unexpected.
As is standard for posts of this type in RestEra, the thread does not allow replies. The statement ends with a warning to the community about either commenting on content ban decisions by the mod team or advocating for their overturn.
