    I’ll shit on JK as much as anyone, but I gotta say, I know a lot of trans people who own Hogwarts Legacy on steam… Most aren’t huge HP fans or even read the books.

          Ive played several games on Epic.

          I don’t get this attitude for single-player games. If its free… Why the heck not.

          Oh right you need people to see your game achievements on Steam?

          That’s literally it?

          Did people not get over the Achievement Hunter phase a decade ago and just start enjoying games?

        This is more of a general answer and not specifically about Hogwarts Legacy:

        I mean, if I want to play a game now I don’t wait for years for the possibility that it becomes free for a week (and the chance that I don’t miss the giveaway). And if I have a steam deck, I maybe still want to own it on steam.

          I get that.

          Personally if it’s single player and I don’t want to support the authors urgently, I can wait.

          So for HP I was happy to never buy it, then I saw Epic give it away and i thought… Oh. Well, I guess that works.
