It’s like the ending of Silicon Valley. Maybe they’re trying to shit their pants so badly that nobody will ever try to make another device like this.

Death of the Author doesn’t really work when the author is still alive, profiting off the work, and gets to decide which new projects get an official stamp of approval. Plus, she’s absolutely delusional enough to believe that her continued royalties off the franchise justify her views and that people must secretly agree with her.
There’s enough other great works out there to put your time and effort into building an expanded world around, if that’s your thing, written by authors who are far kinder and more talented than Rowling. Might I suggest Ursula LeGuin or Terry Pratchett for some light and enjoyable fantasy?
My recommendation for that is to get American Truck Simulator and the Oregon and Washington packs. It does a great job of capturing most of the scenery of the area in a scale you can easily consume, without stressful or tedious gameplay (unless you find driving in games tedious). If you’d prefer to drive a regular car instead of a truck, there are plenty of cars available in the Steam workshop.
