    Gefühlt kommt alle 2m ein Merlinrätsel oder sonst was..
    Die Story ist naja aber für mich ist ein spassiges Gameplay am wichtigsten.

    Fazit: Geiles und spassiges Spiel dass aber auf der Basis von altbekannten open world Mechaniken aufgebaut ist und keine wirkliche Revolution in der Gamegeschichte darstellt. 8/10    … Expand

    It's the best game from Harry Potter's world. Graphics is really good, maybe not the best like Horizon but still pretty.

We have all iconic vehicles like a few broomstick, testrals, hippogryphs and one new. Exploring is really interesting, because we have a lot, but not too much entertainment on the map like puzzles, side quests, nice landscapes, interesting words of mouths and challenges. Hogwarts Legacy offer us all things from movies, from lessons to Chamber of Wish (sims legacy). I really enjoy decorate my own place in Hogward. The main plot is creative, maybe not so dark and adult, but remember HP universe is family friendly. Gameplay is much better than I think before bought the game. We have almost 25 spells and combos are really fun. Additional points for role playing possibility, but I won't spoil the game.… Expand

    Two words : Mixed feelings. Hogwarts Legacy shines the brightest when you explore the corridors of Hogwarts, the streets of hogmeads or the sinister paths of the forbbiden forest. If the game took place in these only three locations, with the marvelous soundtrack and the fantastic lore this universe have to offer, the game would've been a masterpiece and a serious goty contender.

    Sadly, the game is plagued with an unnessesary/empty open world, an uninteresting story/protagonist with a frankly weird pacing, more than I could count visual/game breaking bugs and glitches. (One had me reload a prior save file because a dungeon would not load properly). Another thing that really annoyed the heck out of me were the same 5-6 lines that were repeated over and over and over again all game long. (You'll get what I'm saying right away if you play the game). Still a great game. If you like Harry Potter/Fantastic beasts, it's an absolute must.

The classes are very not captivating and too easy. Finally, the game seem to be obsessed with diversity and inclusion thus resulting in very boring and stereotypical characters like Natsai Onai.… Expand

    I’ve been playing video games since the early 80s and it’s rare that a game impresses me this much right off the bat. HL has done that and more: top-notch story, next-gen graphics, pro dialogue, music worthy of a John Williams nod, great controls, leveling up, gameplay options,… the game is basically perfect. I highly recommended if you’re into adventure of the wizard of kind!

    Absolutely stunning world with an amazing story, although some of the companion questlines don't feel as well fleshed out as others. Combat is fun but controls somewhat clunky. The content outside of the main story was not very entertaining. The gap between beating the final boss and finishing the main quest line was so tiring I almost put the game down before finishing it.

    I thought Hogwarts Legacy was really good. I felt immersed in the world, something you don't get from the movies. Towards the end I got bored though, because of the the repetitive gameplay. The story could of been better but the visuals were top notch. I found myself stopping to admire the world around me, it was absolute eye candy.

    A game with fun combat and great art direction and attention to detail (especially within Hogwarts), held back by a generic open world and a bland story. It may be a must-play for Harry Potter fans, but just don't go in expecting too much.

Pace is almost laid back at times, which was nice when I didn't want tons of combat. There is quite a bit of fighting at times and it was often enjoyably intense. Character moments were passable, although I doubt the story will dazzle too many people. The magic system is the best part (and is definitely better than how you start with the basic attack) and the world looks beautiful and is generally interesting to explore. However, years of open world games have drained me, and I enjoyed this game by only playing the main and select side quests (I don't do the 'points of interest' anymore- I have other things in life that need some of my time) On that note, the PS exclusive side quest was surprisingly extensive. Loot is too bountiful, and the system to upgrade was not for me so I used the same kit for the entire 2nd half of the game. Overall, it's a very well-made game that gets a bit samey if you try everything on the map, but I never felt like I was being smothered in the same amount of open world bloat like many recent games have dumped on me. When it was all over, I actually wish there was more to the school experience at Hogwarts in terms of things to do, but I get that the game felt the need to expand beyond that location to stay fresh.… Expand

    The graphics look amazing and the combat is quite fun, therefore I would recommend this game to Harry Potter fans, this is what you've been dreaming of.

    This game is far from perfect however. While the combat is fun, there is a lot of spells that have the exact same function which feels cluttered and using a lot of different spells fast feels quite awkard. While they're fun, you're able to stun any enemy indefinitely. This means that the only way the game introduces difficulty is by making you fight a lot of enemies at the same time. To add to that, there is very few enemies types in this game, making every fight repetitive, including the "boss" fights against strong enemies. Going into hard mode doesn't really fix this, because that just makes the gank fights impossible to play.

    Also the characters are completely empty and uninteresting. There's 1 interesting sidequest line that has an open ending and besides that I could not care at all about any other quests or characters. Also there's a lot of little missions in the castle. A lot! And by a lot I mean like 4, but they're all recycled 100 times like it's AC.

    Not just the sidequests, but also the main quest is completely uninteresting with uninteresting antagonists.

    I don't get why this still happens? CDPR showed the world how to make fun sidquests and Rockstar and Naughty Dog showed the world how to make fun characters. How can a game with this much development time have such uninteresting, boring quests and characters. This stuff could fly in Ubisoft games around the 2010's but it's been a while since then.

    TL;DR It's fun to explore the world and mess around if you love Harry Potter, if you don't this is just another generic RPG with trailing missions, okay combat and a super uninteresting plot. Real shame.    … Expand

However despite these things it does good it does have some flaws that I don't see many people talking about. I am a big Harry Potter fan but despite that I wanna be unbiased with the game and critiques on it. The open world is very boring after the initial "Honeymoon" phase. It is essentially a low grade ubisoft open world that consist of "caves/dungeons" that result in walking maybe thirty yards just to find a chest of an item that is under your level and maybe the occasional basic enemy. The merlin trials are pretty skippable once you upgrade your gear slots about two times. As you can just easily go to the vendor and sell all non essential items. The enemy camps have no interesting reason to try to explore as it's just lackluster loot after you fight about fifteen or so enemies. The exploration in the castle isn't even that fun once you realize that 99% of the stuff is just collectible pages and more disappointing loot. It really does take the fun out of it as there is so much more potential to be had. There are the occasional good side quest but I would say the best side quests in this game are equal to the worse side quests of a game like what the Wither 3 has to offer. I did find the dark arts quest pretty cool and just really wish there was more stuff of that level more abundantly in the game. The broom flight is really cool and so are the mounts. Although, the broom upgrades feel like there is no difference at all which is a bummer. The Room of requirement and taming the beast were also pleasantly fun and cool to delve into. However I just don't find the positives of the game to bring it past a mediocre game. Overall it is mediocre but lack of interesting sidequest, boring open world with copy paste activities, basic story, mediocre voice acting, and only a few characters that are actually likeable make it hard to really give it a higher score sadly. I would give it a 6.5 out of ten if we could do decimals in the rating. Not bad but certainly not a 9 out of 10 or even an 8.… Expand

Que ce soit les clins d'oeil aux livres et long-metrages, vous vous plonger au coeur d'une expérience voire une situation d'un élève ou d'une élève à Poudlar. Le titre ne résume pas simplement qu'à l'école de Poudlar. La Map reprend le rythme de l'ensemble de la Saga Harry Potter pour offrir une immersion la plus possible. Les graphiques sont appliquées, réussis et les personnages sont incroyablement bien réaliste. L'interface demande une certaine étude en elle-même. Propre à elle, les possibilités de personnalisé les sorts, potions et équipement sont équilibré mais nécessite une certaine adaptation.

    Beaucoup de facultés propre à la sorcellerie se découvre au file de l'expérience.

    Le travail en générale est d'une réussite légendaire. Les symboles, les décors vous propose introspection et un travail en soi en quête du language perdu.

    L'ambiance au cours de l'expérience est saisissante et sera rendre le titre à la hauteur des attentes.

    Ce titre ne vous laissera pas indifférent, que ce soit néophyte des Oeuvres cinématographique et ouvrages ou érudit de la thématique.

    Cet expérience video-ludique vous plongera dans l'utopie ultime de Poudlar et des environs.

    Game Of The Year 2023? C'est un peu la suite à expérimenté après avoir vécu Elden Ring. Vous serez par contre inévitablement un sorcier pour certains ou un mage pour d'autres. Par contre pour un GOTY, il faudra faire preuve de surprises aux joueurs par l'ajout de plusieurs autres possibilités. Quoi qu'il en soit ce titre sera certainement nommé. Bonne expérience à vous.

The combat mechanics were surprisingly enjoyable, proving that fighting with a wand can be incredibly entertaining. It exceeded my expectations!

    As someone who's always been into the Harry Potter universe and who longed for new games regarding this, I was still surprised at how well it came out.

    Hogwarts Legacy is definitely the most immersive HP experience that you can get today, I have finished the game at around 50 hours but there were still things to do around the map if I desired. PROS: - Immersive well established    As someone who's always been into the Harry Potter universe and who longed for new games regarding this, I was still surprised at how well it came out.

    Hogwarts Legacy is definitely the most immersive HP experience that you can get today, I have finished the game at around 50 hours but there were still things to do around the map if I desired.

    PROS:

    - Immersive well established universe

    - A lot of attention to details, Hogwarts feels alive and it's a pleasure to walk through the halls and take it all in

    - You get to have the student experience, attend classes, go to Hogsmeade, all the things you've always wanted to do in this universe

    - The game is set 100 years before the HP events ( meaning that you won't get to see any HP characters but you do find some ancestors around the castle), however it manages to quickly gain your attention and make you forget about the initial HP story that you perhaps expect

    - Combat is better than I anticipated, making combos out of spells is really fun - A lot of extra activities, side quests, puzzles, you even get your own designable space with multiple outdoor places for the beasts you collect

    - Flying on a broom or mount feels satisfying - You can customize your look to your preference no matter what you have equiped

    CONS:

    - Side characters feel kinda weak, the professors are definitely the most interesting ones and it's a shame they aren't involved into the story/quests more often

    - Story is okay but won't blow you away, the main villains aren't as iconic as Voldemort but they get the job done

    - Main character and the fast travel lady sometimes repeat the same things way too often when entering certain places

    - Personally I would've enjoyed more action/content inside Hogwarts and in the Forbidden forest as those are the most mesmerizing attractions -Quidditch would've been nice but I can understand why implementing all the systems for that could be quite consuming, hopefully in a DLC or future game

Also I like that it isn't a 60 hour bloat fest to complete the main story, solid 20-30 to beat the main story while experiencing alot of what the game has to offer, but it also offers content to play and get in plenty of playtime if you want.
    Its downsides for me are the story in terms of the layers and RPG aspects, it really lacks in those areas, its held up by strong characters and a very captivating world but a really barebones story.

Graphics are pretty good running on a 3080TI, don't play RT but everything else is on ULTRA. The game has the same looks from the movies.

    Very minor nitpicks:
    - switching between all the maps is slow. The interface could have been sped up a bit. Me and my partner did have a few bugs in the quests but luckily the game saved our progress and restarting the game fixed the bug..

I don't care what the people who believe JK Rowling is a bad person say about this game, because she's already a zillionaire and so it makes no difference, and all of those people are just ridiculous enough to believe cancel culture and not actually do any research for themselves. I honestly think that the little visual glitches and stuff at launch are fine due to the fact that this, yet again, is Avalanche, so it's going to have some issues, and since there is a site dedicated to report bugs on the first page of the game's website, they should absolutely have all the bugs fixed within the first month with ease. I think that if the game gets a nice dlc to build playerbase, then it can keep that already massive playerbase for even longer than any other open world games. For a massive fan of the franchise (the books in particular) it is a dream come true and I recommend it to anyone who is, or ever has been a fan of the books/movies (but mainly the books since that's what they based the castle design off of).

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let's start with the good things:
    Hogwarts Castle and Hogsmeade - beautiful, very fun to explore. Incredibly detailed, I am talking jaw dropping detailed. Vivarium is awesome. Obviously vast majority of the effort went into these two places.Combat - combat is great, cool animations, spell synergies. Really felt wizard-y. Some puzzles are fun.
    Unfortunately that's about the only good parts of the game. The rest is subpar at best.
    Gear system - what the frell? I can't recall a single RPG with such lackluster gear system. Transmog system could also be done to slots and not the item itself.
    Missing key features - sell all button, mark to sell with sell marked buttons. No morality system!! You can cast all the Unforgivable Curses all day long and nothing happens. Quidditch... but then again with the atrocious broom controls I probably wouldn't wanna play quidditch. No respec option. An option to skip intro level after the first playthrough would be nice. Getting platinum is boring without it. Whose idea it was anyway to include a find the chamber as member of each other houses trophy?
    Story is incredibly generic. Even some sidequests are more exciting. Dialogue choices don't matter at all.
    The world - oh my, the world... There's quite plenty of side activities you can do but they get real old real fast. Merlin trials are fun the first one or two of each type you do then they become Merlin's Chores. Treasure Vaults are a complete waste of resources and time. Enemy camps pose no danger and you can just sneak to the chest.
    Picklock minigame - worst and most senseless of any games with this type of picklocking. What's the point of a spell that unlocks a lock if you need to manually picklock it anway in the most boring and least difficult way possible.
    Collectibles could also be done better - there's way too many field guide pages and running around the castle casting revelio every 10 steps is fun for only so far.
    Then there is plethora of politically related issues on which, sadly, I can't get into details but let's just say that the developers were very, very awake when they were making this game.
    This game gets carried by it's franchise. Nothing more. It sold so well only because of all the free advertising and spite purchases not because it's a great game. Is it the best wizarding world game? Undoubtedly, but only because the bar was set really low.    … Expand

    A game that every nerd that likes the HP franchise, and probably people that don`t, expected. Amazing game with good stories. The animals, the mechanics, the quest, the fidelity with the lore, the fighting... If you thought that battling with a wand would be something boring... well, it isn`t. AWESOME game!

    El mejor juego de Harry Potter hasta la fecha y no sólo eso si no que es un gran RPG con una calidad y mimo en representar el mundo de la magia que es enfermizo ,después de jugar dije me imagino un juego de el señor de los anillos de esta calidad y se me caería la baba ,así seáis fan o no tenéis que jugarlo ,si sois fans claramente lo vais a gozar más

    This is the game I wanted all the time since my childhood. A game where I can discover Hogwarts and the world around it on my own. That is what Hogwarts Legacy does quite well. The story is okay so far, 15h into it, it had some interesting storylines and it creates some truely magical moments, especially right at the beginning. But overall the story seems to be nothing too special.

The story is okay so far, 15h into it, it had some interesting storylines and it creates some truely magical moments, especially right at the beginning. But overall the story seems to be nothing too special.
    There are some things I wish the game would have handeled on another way. The atmosphere is sometimes off. In the nights noone is in the corridors, which makes sense, everyone should sleep, but when you go to your house room noone is in the beds, where are all the students? Sometimes there are house elves working and vanishing, when they see you, which just shows how much effort they put into details, but then, things that should have been discovered as obvious flaws still exists. I wish most of them would sleep, some reading or anything, but at least existing in the nights. It would have been also a nice feature if the Professors or the landlord would watch for students in the corridors at night and give them a penalty or something to make the player more likely to sleep or wait as well. But you can't sleep eather. Non hittable NPCs are not reacting at all if you shoot spells at them, at least one phrase like "What are you doing?" would have been great to stay in the illusion of beeing a real Hogwarts student. Some are some small flaws that destroys the atmosphere a bit.

    The combat system is just great, first I was sceptical about shooting spells around me. I thought it looked lame and not hard enough in the trailers. But it actually makes a lot of fun. It isn't really hard but not too easy, but I think the difficulty is just great balanced. Overall there are some flaws and also the game has some critical performance issues at the moment, but it still is a great game for all Harry Potter fans and a quite good open-worls roleplay game.

    I hope they will add Quittich DLC in the future or even maks a sequel game which allows the developers to learn from their mistakes and make a game even better. Not a must-play title, but still quite a solid experience. Especially recommended for all Harry Potter Fans, but also non Fans could enjoy the experience.    … Expand

It's the love letter to fans of the franchise and a world that's a joy to explore. Do much more than that, however, and you're in for a repetitive and bland slog through identical dungeons and fetch quests. Clever puzzles do go a way to breaking that up and satisfying combat benefits from a varied but tame collection of spells, but with bugs and glitches preventing some areas of progress, Hogwarts Legacy brought the timeless atmosphere of the Wizarding World to life at the expense of its own identity.

    A love letter to Harry Potter fans. The game is rich with details and winks to the movies and books; a very enjoyable experience to just wander the Hogwarts castle or the little hamlets across the map. That being said, there are "flavor chatter" that is heavily repeated all the time, and can be annoying.The game could be a little more polished, and has several bugs to be fixed.

    E aí, meus bruxos e bruxas favoritos! Já ouviram falar do novo jogo Hogwarts Legacy? Pois bem, eu, que só vi os filmes de Harry Potter, mas não sou fã, confesso que fiquei empolgado com esse lançamento!

Pois bem, eu, que só vi os filmes de Harry Potter, mas não sou fã, confesso que fiquei empolgado com esse lançamento!

    O jogo se passa no universo de Harry Potter, onde o jogador é um
    estudante da escola de magia e bruxaria mais famosa do mundo. A primeira coisa
    que me chamou a atenção foi a possibilidade de criar o próprio personagem e
    escolher a casa em que ele vai estudar. Eu fiquei dividido entre a Grifinória e
    a Sonserina, mas acabei escolhendo Sonserina, afinal, queria saber mais sobre o
    "lado negro".

    A partir daí, o jogo começa a desenrolar com uma história
    própria, mas que se encaixa perfeitamente no universo criado por J.K. Rowling.
    O gráfico é incrível e a imersão é total. Você se sente realmente em Hogwarts,
    com direito a passeios pelo castelo, aulas de poções e duelos com outros
    alunos.

    Aliás, os duelos foram uma das partes que mais gostei. O estilo
    free-flow que vem da série Batman Arkham funciona perfeitamente aqui, e mostra o
    quanto ele pode ser divertido e funcionar para qualquer tipo de tema, os duelos
    em Hogwarts Legacy são bem divertidos e desafiadores, é preciso usar estratégia
    para vencer os adversários e é muito satisfatório quando conseguimos acertar um
    feitiço bem colocado. Elelementos de Zelda na exploração e uso da magia também funcionam perfeitamente aqui sendo usados pra resolução de puzzles e combate, assim como a construção de mundo e das quests, que tem muita semelhança com a construção de mundo em The Witcher 3, mesmo não tendo quests tão elaboradas quanto sua inspiração.

    Agora, falando sério, eu sei que muita gente está em dúvida se deve
    ou não jogar Hogwarts Legacy, devido à polêmica envolvendo a autora J.K.
    Rowling. Eu também não concordo com as opiniões dela, mas acho que cada um deve
    seguir o seu coração. Se você é fã de Harry Potter e está com vontade de jogar,
    vá em frente. Eu, que não sou fã, já estou me divertindo bastante. E se você
    decidir não jogar, também é uma escolha válida. O importante é respeitar as
    opiniões uns dos outros e lembrar que, no fim das contas, a magia de Hogwarts
    sempre vai estar presente em nossos corações.

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

While the movie licensed games certainly scratched that itch, they all ranged from ok to bad. Now with this game, I'll say that Hogwarts Legacy is a masterpiece. I'll admit that the gameplay trailer from a year ago made me a bit nervous for thinking the developers were to ambitious in showing how much they put into the game and they wouldn't be able to live up to the hype that was built up. Safe to say that they delivered on everything they promised and even more than so. This game just kept on giving and giving. A huge world the explore with a lot of tiny details everywhere, attending classes to learn new spells and meeting other students with unique stories. The overall story is really captivating and interesting and follows the themes of the books and movies with a lot of mystery and intrigue. The characters, while not the most super interesting bunch like Mass Effect, they are interesting enough for you to actually care about and want to learn more them. The attention to detail the developers put into this title is absolutely crazy; said many times to myself that they didn't have to go that far, but they did it anyway. Tiny details like a student floating in the halls while his 2 classmates in panic trying to help him down. 2 armours standing next to each other and doesn't get along and one of them beats the crap out the other. Visiting Hogsmeade and enter Zonkos or Honeydukes, these stores serve no purpose what so ever to the story or any side mission but you can visit them and interact with stuff on the inside. Walking down the halls of the school and every student talking with one another about different subjects or experiences really added a lot to make the world feel more alive. Even side characters you join up and help can appear in the halls and say something random to you. Not a single AI or NPC felt like a face put there just to populate the world, they felt like real characters. Even Peeves shows up here and there to prank students. Gameplay is immensely fun, weaponwheel usage to attach spells of your liking and all grouped as different colour for different usage. You even get to learn unforgivable curses if you so wish. Spells could also be used for puzzle solving and many puzzles left me scratching my head for how tricky it was to solve them. Customisation is crazy, so many pieces of clothing to make your character look however you want with the added option to pick a clothing item with good stats and change it's appearance to whatever you want. With no microtransactions at all! (bless you developers for not adding it) If I have to nitpick a little bit, there were very few options to customize your wand, I personally wanted one to look similar to Sirius Black's but couldn't. There's no Quidditch (though I understand why the developers didn't design a side mission type for it). There's no inventory storage wich is a bit annoying of you want to keep certain cosmetics. But none of these nitpicks took away from the overall experience I had a big smile on my face throughout my 52 hours it took for me to beat this game. I rate this game 10/10, near perfection. This is a game made by fans, for fans. If you love Harry Potter, I urge you to pick this title up, you won't regret it. I can't wait to jump back into this title to see what else I can do differently, choosing another house and going for different dialouge options just to see what else I missed. I really hope for a sequel, a trilogy even. And next, maybe ad an option to become an animagus, learn the Patronus charm to fight dementors or even visit London and Diagon Alley for some unique missions.… Expand

    It's been a decade since we've had a full Potterverse game, but the wait has been well worth it. Hogwarts Legacy gets just about everything right, with its involving storyline and myriad of main and side quests. Perhaps its finest feature though is Hogwarts itself, providing as much joy in just exploring the halls as performing set tasks. We doubt a single Harry Potter fan will be disappointed. We certainly weren't.
