Rowling didn’t create the game, dude. She just gets a cut of the money. You think everyone in the dev team feels that way? Are we just supposed to not get a game set in a beloved universe because the person who owns the IP is a piece of shit?
At this stage it might even be too crazy to say that she’s so rich that the money she’s getting from this game is a drop in the bucket and has no practical negative impact on society. She will have the same influence with or without it, so might as well buy the game.
It’s kinda hard to separate the art from the artist when the art is actually full of racist and classiest themes, and the artist in question is actively being a huge bigot at every given opportunity.

My point was related to people that like the art, since there’s much less incentive to buy the game if you don’t like the world it’s build from.
