Yeah, my wife got it super cheaply on PS4 (so if JKR got anything, it would be about 2¢) and enjoyed the game a lot ... she's gender nonconforming, and played using the male-coded body model with female-coded hair which looked like pleasantly non-binary combo :-)

Yeah, my sister was pretty reluctant at first, she is ACE and wanted to support the boycott, but then when the game was basically a slap in the face to rowling, and rowling was trying to tank the game by tweeting that buying the game still supported her anyway, we took that as meaning that she actually wasn't making residuals on it or she would have just shut her mouth and raked in the money like normal.

I played the game in VR myself, but my sister played it flat screen. We both enjoyed the game. It is definitely very "videogamey" but, been playing videogames for over 30 years, so that is nothing new. The parts that were new to us were worth the parts that weren't.
