Art vs artist doesn't apply when the artist is making bank off their art.
A better example would be something like Notch and Minecraft. Notch made Minecraft, Notch sucks, but he sold it and makes no money off it anymore so who cares if he's the worst. JKR is a different story, and every new Harry Potter thing supports JKR.
That's weird, as the developer stated they had no plans for post-release content & were only focused on the sequel, which has since been officially greenlit.
One of the main storyline NPCs is a well thought out and respected trans individual. Jk rowling specifically tried to tank sales of the game, there are two ways licensing can be done, a one-time upfront fee, or residuals. Her behavior suggests it was the former, though no one has specified that I know of.
Either way, us buying and playing the game is against J.K. Rowlings wishes, good enough for me. And I really enjoyed the game. It was well made if a bit generic, similar to the more recent Avowed, I enjoyed that too. Well-made, fun game, but a bit generic in some aspects.
I also played both in VR once VR mods were available. Hogwarts legacy is great in VR(specifically with Luke Ross's mod, if you haven't tried it recently it has made some significant strides in the past few months) Avowed in VR takes alot of hardware to run well(UEVR mod), my hardware was just below that line. Still worth it for me, but not as great of an experience.
