Hogwarts Legacy! What were your thoughts

[tickle_prince]

Evening all,

So currently I am still playing this on Steam, when I first got it, I didn’t know what to expect, I seen the films and now I am reading the books. But I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with just how much i have enjoyed this game.

Don’t get me wrong, I am not new to rp games, I live them and have played many of them, and even thou the game has a few bugs, I just wanted too see what other members thought about it! Let me know!

Also let me know, what house were you? I am house Slytherin myself! ^^

Ah a fellow Slytherin. Excellent. Lol

I really liked the game. I feel like it went well out of its way to immerse the player. Plus combat is really fun, spells in games like Skyrim should feel like this.

Always a pleasure to chat to a fellow Slytherin! ^^

I totally agree with you there, even heard from a work colleague of mine who is also playing it, there is talk of an update so it includes a crime system! That would be so cool if they do something like that!

I totally agree, don’t get me wrong I do love Skyrim, and I know you can get mods that make spell wielding in Skyrim look better, but it would be so cool if they did a system like this with the way spells are casted in combat and the different wand/staff animations. It would encourage me to try to make more mage builds, rather than sticking to the normal battle mage stereotypes

Loved it! Spent a lot of time completing damn near all the side quests and collecting as many unique pieces of clothing, wands, items, etc. as possible. The storyline was great, gameplay was fun, and it seemed very detailed and accurate in terms of powers and abilities, world building including architecture and design of familiar areas, towns, etc, and also of the magical beasts. Definitely did a service to the Harry Potter IP.

Just a shame that the game had to be dragged through the mud due to the drama. The Harry Potter and Wizarding world IP (intellectual property) 100% needs to be explored more.

Sounds like a popular game. The Switch version looks awful though.

Honestly not tried it on my Switch, I don’t think I can go thru it all again, took me ages my first play thru on my laptop lol

I loved this game and will probably play it again at some point down the road. Fun and challenging campaign. Especially the final battle with the goblin. Stock up on your potions!

Not a bad game at all. However, for someone who've worked with games and knows the industry very well – I kinda couldn't get past the fact that it's just another open world action adventure with few (and not very well made) RPG elements.

It's appearant that the focus went into quantity rather than quality in some aspects. Even though the world itself is huge, it feels quite empty. Especially if you spent some time following the NPCs who are there just to "be there" and create an illusion of life.

I was also hoping for a more sandbox-like experience. Sadly, the gameplay didn't offer much of it. Yes, you can explore and do a lots of stuff after you progress a bit further through the storyline, but if you look under the hood, the game is more linear in ways it presents iself and its somewhat cliche story than it probably should be.

But in terms of visuals and overall graphic presentation - it just looks damn impressive. Just wandering around the castle is a treat for the eye.
