Trans Character in Hogwarts Legacy (Sirona Ryan)

[@Dreaming05Man]

Honestly, I am more shocked that both voices do not even sound as if they are coming from the in-game models. Like, the mouths are moving by themselves and the voices are just... there, coming from somewhere.

[@timidhobgoblin207]

I know exactly what you mean. The audio mixing is off and the lip syncing and movements are quite strange so it literally sounds like someone's dubbed a voice over the top of gameplay footage as opposed to it actually sounding like it's coming organically from the characters.

[@epultric5007]

Like having a deep voiced trans woman would be valid rep but the voice for this character feels so disjointed I honestly wouldn’t be surprised this character was voiced by a regular guy

She did not go disguised in any and if she were capable of simply making herself look like Harry, she would have been one of the ones pretending to be him as it would be easier and less risky as she could hold the disguise longer than polyjuice potion lasts if needed. While the fandom wiki takes the opinion she could change her gender, neither Pottermore, nor a single book from Rowling say this. In fact, all we are told In Order of the Phoenix, is that she can change her appearance at will, not her shape. And in this sense, changing her sex would be more significant than a mere appearance - but a change in her entire anatomical structure. ‘I’m a Metamorphmagus,’ she said, looking back at her reflection and turning her head so that she could see her hair from all directions. ‘It means I can change my appearance at will,’ she added, spotting Harry’s puzzled expression in the mirror behind her. Order of the Phoenix - pages 51-52 - Bloomsbury - chapter 3, The Advance Guard "Do the one that looks like a pig's snout!" Hermione said 'looks like' implying that the nose looks as close to a pig's snout as is possible for a human. I can further argue this with Harry thinking she looks like a female Dudley. We know Dudley cannot look non-human so we must assume it looks close to a pig's snout. Since we already have Animagi, we know Metamorphmagi cannot change into animals. The same logic also follows, she can make herself "look" like something, but she isn't that thing.

If you buy it and you Avada Cadavra her and put it on KZbin you're not supporting trans people. That said, nothing wrong with supporting trans people, just don't worship them. But they definitely have a right to live their lives.

[@rosalina2938]

@@NaliTikva I don't think anyone believes they don't have a right to exist. The problem today is just how obnoxious they are, telling us how bad we are, think they know everything better.

Pandering [GONE WRONG] [TRANSSEXUAL]

[@lifodd666]

The devs are not nearly this based. They searched for an actual "her" to do the voice acting of this character because that's how these leftist devs think. And no one dared to say "no" in that whole process. So this is the hilarious result.

[@timothytim1053]

Just imagine all the dickborns playing. Thinking "my God, this doesn't pass at all....." before coming to some conclusions. Lmaoooooo

[@DrSomers]

Its pandering 100%, apparently some insiders who worked on the game leaked that the studio did this as a last minute addition as an attempt to quell the boycott. I wouldn't be surprised though if it was something Warner Brothers made them do "hey add a trans character to the game to make it seem like we're allies" or some shit.

[@OffendEveryoneImmediately]

Allowing non-consumers to pressurize your design choices is the most brain dead mistake one could make. These insane idiots are not only still offended by this inclusion, (whatever you want to call this creature), and now normal people like me are retracted from buying this game as well because we don't like woke crap in our games.
