An Unbiased Review of Hogwarts Legacy

This game is awesome, and so is JK Rowling. Fk your feelings

i finessed this game nd jm glad i didn’t pay for it cause its lame af😂 i played 3 hrs nd it felt like i was doing hw nd im too old to play boring shit that waste my time

I really like it. People can say what they want. But I love it.

I was looking for an Rpg, those are the game that I play aaaand I was a bit disappointed.
It looks amazing … But that's it for me.
It was a tease.

Much agreed with this. It was a joke that AngryJoe gave it a 10. Not even close

so im a massive harry potter guy, i really like the series, i think its well written and as a result a game where i can go through hogwarts and surrounding areas is AUTOMATICALLY in my top 10, however i do not think that on a purely objective level the game is anywhere near that good, i simply like that it allows me some perspective on what ive read and gives me more perspective for future reading, im also more naturally immursed in the game and am probably willing to overlook more than i should, so im biased, objectively id say the game is a 7 or 8 out of 10, the combos are cool, graphics are excellent, but not perfect

"Unbiased". Duude. Everyone trying to not offend anyone these days. This is average game with poor RPG mechanics, literally several types of enemies. Your choices does not matter at all — linear plot. The main plot is boring. Sebastian story is only somehow interesting and Poppy's. Everybody crying in the end about mr. Fig, when in fact he didn't participate much, players do not get attached and don't give a fuck. They didn't even reveal who the main protagonist and what's hist story.
However, the world (the castle and some surroundings) itself are very precise. I truly liked it, there is a great job was done by mapping and designing depts.

In the end I didn't felt anything. After ending a great game it leaves you in some kind of sadness that it ended. Like, I do not know, RDR2 for example or Mass Effect (1-3). This just gave nothing. I'm HP big fan (books/movies) also a gamer. Invested 58h.

It’s good but it could be a lot better. In a lot of ways it feels like a BOTW ripoff.

Here's my unbiased review…. It's a f'n banger!! All games have flaws but to say this is anything less than great or at least good is crazy imo.

You beat it in 20 hours? What?

All they had to do was make it co-op it didn't even have to be a mmo tired of paying full price for a game that ima complete and never play again

This is very off-topic, but I like your speaking accent. It's very clean and pleasant. This is coming from someone who has studied languages (focusing on English and other germanic languages), spelling and accents for a little over 5 years.

Thank you.

Pros: Gorgeous graphics.

I enjoyed the combat dynamics.

I liked the customization for the main character.

In general, I really liked the main story quest. And the companion quests with Sebastian, Natty, and Poppy. Wish there was a second male npc here. Maybe one that was the opposite of Sebastian.

I feel like they left it open to have multiple sequels. I’m really eager to learn more about the story and to close off some loose ends. My imagination on the story has been set a light and that hasn’t happened since I read the original HP books. So great job on that part.

I loved the flying but do have some gripes on the controls.

Some of the NPCs were really good (Fig, Sebastian, Natty, Poppy, Prof Weasley, headmaster black) but most were flat, obnoxious, or uninteresting.

Definitely wish that there was a more dynamic system where our decisions had a greater affect on how the story played out. They really oversimplified that system in an effort to make players feel free to use the unforgivable curses. A lot of what I’ve seen, even among people who are enjoying using curses in combat are feeling the lack a satisfaction in going dark because of the lack of consequences. I really do hope they’ll find a way to fix that in any sequels.

Cons:
I really hate the inventory system and having to do merlin trials to up that.

The room of requirement is kinda cool, but is also a giant time suck to customize. Though I imagine some people enjoy that sort of thing.

Really do wish our decisions could have greater influence on the way the story plays out. That might have helped avoid the quests from feeling so shallow.

Wish there was some kind of school house point system. There could have used some of the mini side-quests to influence that.

Some of the game play gets a tad repetitive, like alohamora mini game.

Overall, I absolutely adore this game. Not being a big gamer or RPG player, I found it super easy to get sucked into. I truly feel there is so much potential here for sone really great stuff. I only fear they won’t be able to deliver what we want in a reasonable timeline.
