Warner Bros. Cancels Planned ‘Hogwarts Legacy’ Game Expansion
-
Which is fine, but I have no idea why they're just throwing everything they have in the trash. They built the whole world and just sat on it. Expansions could make them so much money to fund the next game in the short term
Yeah, I was surprised given the success that they didn't even spit out something to keep people engaged with the game. Seemed like even a small content update or doc would have pulled people in.
Hopefully it just means the follow-up will be even better.

WHY?! WHY ARE THEY BEING SO STUPID WITH HOGWARTS?!
They built this whole world into the game and did NOTHING with it! It's empty! Hogwarts the settings is perfect! The castle was fun to walk around in, to explore! I 100%'d the game because I loved exploring in it! Then they did nothing else to the game.
The game oversold all expectations! People just loved shelling out money for it! Then WB just dropped it.
I see things bitching every day about how their game studios don't make enough movie and then they shit the bed here by just letting that game sit here!
If they're actually worried about money why are they not cranking out DLC every 4-6 months?! People would buy it! They can't bitch and moan that games don't make money and then they just flip the off switch on their freaking money printer.
Thanks. That was cathartic.
Is someone upset they can't fork over more money to the transphobic piece of shit and the media conglomerate megacorp?

Mk sucks now, soulless
I’d rather buy a soulless game than one that is putting money into the pockets of a known transphobe who spends her free time trying to persecute people with her Twitter account.

We know. She sucks.

Right message. Wrong tone. Assuming you want people to fork less money to the transphobic piece of shit.
You do want that, right?

Oh shit, the tone police are here. I'm not under the impression the person I'm responding to is going to change their behavior after this has already been widely talked about to death for years, and so I really don't care what tone I use. This person is helping make the lives of real, actual, perfectly innocent trans people (and especially the lives of trans women) hell because they a) don't care about those people or somehow more pathetically b) do care but can't restrain themselves from buying a children's toy to that end.

Well you see the reason for this is simply that WB is stupid.

Disappointing for sure. Great game and has the potential for some great expansions.
Maybe Hogwarts 2…

It's genuinely baffling watching WB just make like, every wrong decision. Their business is losing money and every time a project that receives praise or interest is announced/released that is nearly guaranteed to make them lots of money.They just don't go through with it. Or they do some work on it then can it.
It's like, even out of touch executives at other large companies have enough feelers to find out generally what people are enjoying. Then with all their money they throw something in that general direction and something eventually sticks.
With WB though it's like, nothing is working. The things that do stick don't make as much as they thought. And the things that they don't think will make money do make money, often more than they thought... And then they just always find a way to either piss off everyone, sour and sabotage the future projects, or just don't do anything with it.
It's just so fucking weird. Like I don't even enjoy or partake in most of the stuff WB puts out. But sitting on the sidelines and just watching it all unfold makes me question what drugs the leaders at the company are on...

JK Rowlling is a transphobe, a bigot, and a fascist.
So is a massive chunk of murica

I'm glad I'm not the only one genuinely confused by this. Are they shorting their own company? What is going on?
I mean, a Gollum game?

Seriously they could have done sims level DLC and people could have just kept buying. New mounts, small new areas, bits of story here and there, a new class

They also closed Monolith, a great studio behind e.g. FEAR amd Shadow of Mordor games. They are making all the wrong decisions, and then will wonder why they have lost to competitors.

So she's not even been original?

Seeing how the game prominently features trans characters and that Rowling wasn't involved in making it, it probably doesn't bother many people.

Probably more expensive than they realize and too much work
