    The world created in this game is amazing, full with details and references of the source material. It truly feels magical just wondering around Hogwarts and its grounds. It is definitely a great game to play specially if you are a Harry Potter fan. The only issue I have experienced is with its performance, something a suppose will be fixed with future updates.

    An honest review coming up. I went into this game neutral in terms of the controversy surrounding JK Rowling, as an a gamer more than a Harry Potter fan - I don't 'dislike' HP, I'm just not particularly a fan. I'm also in my late 30's and have played games since joystick days.

    Initially, the world is fantastic. It's a great rendition of Hogwarts and walking around the castle is    An honest review coming up. I went into this game neutral in terms of the controversy surrounding JK Rowling, as an a gamer more than a Harry Potter fan - I don't 'dislike' HP, I'm just not particularly a fan. I'm also in my late 30's and have played games since joystick days.

    Initially, the world is fantastic. It's a great rendition of Hogwarts and walking around the castle is everything you'd expect, done well. However, most of the main missions are outside the castle or in special 'dungeons.' I would have liked the castle being the setting for more main missions.

    The graphics are great, the control is decent, a variety of spells are at your disposal. you can fly... so why is the game so BORING? Two reasons: Firstly, the story is boring and the main missions lack and real punch. Most are glorified fetch questions with a little bit of exploring. It gets boring pressing 'Revelio' (think hitman vision) every few seconds and just walking towards the icons. Secondly, all of the story is told in this weird 'face to face' narrative way, rather than any actual cutscenes, except on around 2 occasions. The game misleadingly starts with fireworks which you think sets the pace... but the action is subsequently fairly slow and mundane. This game is clearly made for casuals from a difficulty standpoint. The game has lots of different parts which sound great on paper but they don't quite gel together. Having to fast-travel between Hogsmead to buy stuff and your special hub room where you can upgrade outfits felt tedious. And why couldn't I upgrade spells? Or play Quidditch? Or fly in certain areas?

    The side missions are boring and most are collectible quests. There are so many of these everywhere. I finished the main story in about 22 hours and felt no motivation to do anything more. I don't care about the people or the stupid flying books.

    This game has everything it needs on paper, but it just lacks that special something. The spells aren't really used to their full potential, and neither is the castle. The game is decent, young players and casuals alike will love it, as will HP fans. But coming in purely as a gamer, I was left disappointed by the combat and the story. Great from a technical standpoint, but lacks any real excitement.    … Expand

    Vorab: ein Review sollte inhaltlich unvoreingenommen und ungeachtet möglicher kontroversen Diskussionen sein. Daher wird in meinem Review auch inhaltlich ausschließlich Bezug zum Spiel genommen, eigens dafür konstruierte gute oder schlechte Reviews finde ich persönlich unmöglich.

    Was sage ich nach 48 Spielstunden zu Hogwarts Legacy auf der Playstation 5?

    Hervorzuheben ist die Grafik in Kombination mit der musikalischen Untermalung, welche eine stimmungsvolle Atmosphäre in der open-world Spielwelt bieten. Während des Spielens traten einige wenige Grafikfehler (fehlerhafte Beleuchtung, fehlerhafte Darstellung von NPCs) auf, welche den Spielfluss aber nicht erheblich gestört haben. An manchen Stellen waren NPCs durch die Umgebung gefangen und hingen fest, sowie auch der eigene Charakter, jedoch setzte das Spiel oft selbstständig diese Charaktere dann nach kurzer Zeit zurück. Einige Missionsteile machten einen ungetesteten und somit fehlerhaften Eindruck an manchen Stellen, was ich jedoch aufgrund der Komplexität der open-world verkraftbar finde.

    Das Tutorial wirkte etwas aufgezwungen, jedoch wurde man nach einigen wenigen Missionen dann in die open-world entlassen und konnte die Missionen selbstständig anwählen und nach Belieben (innerhalb der Rahmenhandlung) verfolgen, was einen guten Spielspaß bietet. Stellenweise wirkt die Umgebung etwas leer, da wenig NPCs gemessen an der Größe der Karte und des Schlosses vorhanden sind (evtl. technische Limitierung?), kürzere Ladezeiten mit Blackscreens zwischen dem Porten innerhalb der Karte und Cutscenes (auf der PS5 in der Regel zwischen drei und fünf Sekunden) nerven, sind gemessen an Ladezeiten der PS4 vergleichbarer anderer Titel jedoch in Ordnung. Die Übergänge einzelner Bereiche im Schloss hingegen kommen ohne solche Ladezeiten aus, lediglich das Öffnen der Türen dauert dann eine bis zwei Sekunden, was jedoch eine sehr gute Lösung ist und das Spielerlebnis nicht weiter beeinträchtigt.

    Ich hätte mir gewünscht, dass die Dialoge auf Englisch umzustellen wären, da die deutsche Vertonung zwar gut ist, die Handlung jedoch stellenweise doch sehr gescripted wirkt und im Englischen so erträglicher gewesen wäre. An die Handlung der Bücher kommt die Story an keiner Stelle heran, das muss klar gesagt werden. Glücklicherweise lassen sich nahezu alle Teile der Dialoge auf Wunsch überspringen. Insgesamt ist die Handlung jedoch unterhaltsam, spannend und abwechslungsreich. Zum Einstieg hätte ich mir persönlich einen Start in bzw. auf direktem Wege ins Schloss gewünscht, ohne die Handlung an dieser Stelle spoilern zu wollen, ist dies nicht der Fall.

    Die Steuerung ist in Summe gut gelungen, man ist selbst verantwortlich dafür, sich die Flüche/Sprüche sinnvoll auf Tasten zu legen (jederzeit änderbar). Auch das Level & Punktesystem ist gut umgesetzt und motiviert zum Leveln, Forschen und Erkunden der Spielwelt. Verpasste Chancen sind hingegen der fehlende Multiplayermodus, es wäre so viel attraktiver die Welt gemeinsam mit anderen zu erkunden und die Missionen zu bestreiten (stellenweise übernehmen das NPCs) und natürlich: Quidditch fehlt. In der Handlung selbst wird auch Bezug auf die ausbleibende Quidditch Saison genommen, da kommt man sich etwas veralbert vor. Ganz offensichtlich hat die Verschiebung des Releases auf dieses Jahr dem Spiel insgesamt aber sehr gut getan. Schön wäre ein DLC mit einer Erweiterung der Handlung und der Map, welche an sich aber schon sehr sehr groß ist.

    In Summe hat das Spiel meine Erwartungen übertroffen und ich habe die Vorbestellung nicht bereut. Ich vergebe daher 8 von 10 möglichen Punkten    … Expand

    The combat is great, died couple of times as the game is on hard, but it feels earned if you manage to get a win.

    Hogwarts is huge and you can find some attractions in every corner.
    The lack of Photography mode and quidditch is also kind of upsetting.

    Any complaint I may have is far overshadowed by the amount of things love about it, Hogwarts is by far the best starting area of an open world game I have ever come across, the fact there is a vast open world outside of it feels like a bonus more than anything.

This is the ultimate piece of Harry Potter fanservice, it genuinely feels like it was built from the ground up by genuine fans of the source material.

    There are some elements that could definitely use some tweaking, I'd have liked a more classic approach to side quests with more focus on writing and unique objectives. I also feel like "companions" should have been more involved, with more in depth dialogue and relationship building as well as a tag along for less lonely open world exploration (there also should have been more than just the three). I'd have liked more variety in the dialogue options. There are some gameplay elements and limitations that definitely could have been handled better as well but I feel like it's hard to complain when this is the first in what I hope is many more games in a series by a team that has never quite handled a game of this caliber before.

    I do hope this team continues thriving and chooses to continue this series in some kind a way, they deserve to be able to prove themselves in the realm of taking feedback into account and improving upon what they did here. I really do think a sequel has the potential to be even better. Hopefully we get a lot more from these guys before things inevitably change at the studio and drain all the passion from it as we've seen so many times before.

    It's not a perfect game, but if you are one who's imagination has ever been captured by the world of Harry Potter I doubt you'll really care about it's shortcomings all that much. It lives in the perfect middle of being a vast improvement on any of the existing Harry Potter games and being a surprisingly solid entry in the world of AAA RPGs, and I sincerely hope there's a follow up that not only blows this one out of the water but solidifies the series' place among some classic open world RPGs, I will be very sad if I live in the timeline where this doesn't open the path for something like that.    … Expand

    De très loin le meilleur jeu Harry Potter ayant existé.
    Ravira les fans.
    Un peu brouillon quand vous sortez de God of War, mais GOW est parfait, HL est incroyable mais pas parfait.
    j'enlève 2 points pour:

    - mauvaise optimisation (sur PS5 en mode performance c'est OK)
    - pas de combat à l'épée
    - les dialogues manque de naturel par moment
    - pas de Karma (comme dans Fable)

    Game may seem shallow I have been playing Hogwarts Legacy for about 10 hours now and I am pleased to say that it's fantastic! The developers have clearly captured the unique qualities and magical atmospheres of this universe. So far the story has been entertaining and engaging although the voice acting can be a bit monotone and dull. The voice acting of the male character is decent but nothing extraordinary which makes cutscenes a little difficult to get through. The puzzles and challenges are dynamic and easily keep the player wanting to collect more. The developers have truly created a world that makes the player want to explore every nook and cranny. Around every corner the developers have hand placed the decorations and interactions making Hogwarts feel like real and magical location. You'll want to discover everything once you pick up the controller or keyboard. Speaking of the controls I am very satisfied. Combat is clean and the layout just makes sense for a controller. The combat is also engaging and the the ability to experiment with charms is quite awesome. However, to the veteran gamer the combat may get repetitive after long hours of playing. Graphically the game is beautiful and I am playing on balanced mode with an LG CX 4k at 120hzs. When I switched to Fidelity with Ray Tracing, the FPS took a dive. Moving the camera quickly left to right would cause screen tearing and lose fidelity. I found balanced mode to best suited for my play style. There are graphical glitches but they are few and far between. It so nice to see a game come out finished and not filled with bugs. I completely support companies that delay games and deliver products like this. However, I think the developer missed the opportunity to add more. I am disappointed that quidditch is not in the game and the in game story does explain why but it seems like a cover you ass kinda move. Like the developer didn't have time to code it in to the game. Also, miny games are in short supply and games like Wizards Chest would have been a great inclusion. The developer has a great opportunity to DLC the hell out of this game. An expansion pack that adds a whole season of Quidditch with a unique side story. Or a DLC of the tri-wizard tournament. That would be amazing. They have no reason to let this game die, please Avalanche Games. Give me DLC for this game. I will happily pay for it.    … Expand

Some of the animations like flying on a broom could have been made less stiff but this does not impact the overall gameplay.

    The sound effects and voice acting is incredible and immersive to the point it feels like I'm truly there in game.

    Hogwarts Castle is so well done it feels like it was pulled from my imagination.

    The Forbidden forest is so incredible and alluring that it actually provides an ominous feeling.

    The map is so ALIVE and vibrant, it's just stunning.

    (Apparently there are people saying they have had performance/FPS issues?)

    I have had no issue(s) in that capacity game play wise or other etc, it has been a smooth and fun ride.

    The Game itself truly truly felt like coming home.

    VERY VERY VERY GOOD GAME!

    Well, I'd say like 9.5/10. The main goal of the game was to create an atmosphere of magical world - and it did it brilliantly!! You can spend hours just exploring the Hogwarts itself. Combat is also good, quests are interesting. The weak points are facial animations and some technical issues, but the game is still great!

    Very fun game with what I feel are beautiful visuals. Combat is nothing groundbreaking but is still enjoyable. Character visuals are good not great. The cursor in the menus is a bit slow for me. The broom controls seem very touchy although I have not messed with the settings fully so that may be fixable. I was going to give it a bounds point as a HP fan but decided not to.

    After certain games, I decided not to set my expectation too high. Avalanche software hasn't developed any big game like this. It was natural to expect an unpolished and even a bad game. Considering all this I was quite sceptical about this game. Nevertheless Hogwarts Legacy managed to surprise me in a good manner and definitely exceeded my expectations.

It was natural to expect an unpolished and even a bad game. Considering all this I was quite sceptical about this game. Nevertheless Hogwarts Legacy managed to surprise me in a good manner and definitely exceeded my expectations.

    The most intriguing part was combat, it's really hard to come up with a combat system that suits the Wizarding World. And one can easily say that Avalanche Software nailed it. Spellcasting feels natural, but the combat itself is smooth and can be really challenging at times especially if you play at high difficulty.

    The RPG part of the game isn't the best side. The skill tree is there, but it doesn't offer you a great deal of flexibility in character development as some other RPG games do. Though it's definitely not the worst skill tree, while you can't create "builds" you can emphasize the character's skills on certain spells.

    The game looks astonishingly beautiful. Technically it's not the best graphics in the industry, but the art design is amazing. Hogwarts itself is a masterpiece of location design. It definitely manages to bring to the Wizarding World.

    While I like the most aspects of the game some can really frustrate me:
    1) Side quests aren't really that versatile, most of them are just bring that, do that. At first, these activities can be really fun but they grow repetitive rather quickly.
    2) Real-time growth of plants and brewing of potions? Really? Is this some kind of Chinese MMORPG?
    3) It can be buggy and the performance isn't flawless at all times.

    In conclusion, Hogwarts Legacy isn't a masterpiece, but it can easily bring you to your childhood and deliver the magical experience we all desire. An easy 8.5 out of 10.    … Expand
