    The intro is a bit long. The castle is where its at. The unforgivable curses are where its at. Story is tolerable. The beasty stuff is where its at. Collectibles outside of the castle and hogsmeade are very repetitive. The flying is probly the best part of the game. I wish there was more options for the character creator, more like the elden ring one. And more options for the bloody voice.The intro is a bit long. The castle is where its at.

    I can sense from people's reactions and various reviews that I am quite alone with the perception of Hogwarts Legacy: Yes, it's a nice visual game, combat system works, etc.

    However, it is so lonely to run around Hogwarts and you dont really get the atmosphere of it being a School of magic. The few students who are around Hogwarts does not sense your presence, when passing by them. They don't stand and talk together even though they are standing in groups. It's feels like laziness on the developers part. It is a so-called open world game. But your entire progression is tied to the main story. You can't really go exploring nor interact with your college mates. That brings me to the next point: It feels completely irrelevant which college you choose. I chose Slytherin but was shown around by a Weasley. I was expecting to have someone from my own dorm to be my friend/guide to lead me through the castle. But all interactiones are kindly embraced. You're a formal boy - I'd like to think you could choose whether you wanted to be good or evil:

    Your actions or lack thereof have no influence on the story. It's such an empty feeling. This makes the game too scripted. For example, when you enter a professor's office you can burn that person’s books without reactions unless you do what instructed to- again the game's characters do not sense your presence because it is SO scripted. Various professors and students you have to interact with are also just waiting for you. They are never doing anything that makes the experience believable. Yes, I'm perhaps too used to this from playing GTA and Red Dead Redemption. Im just saying that if Rockstar could implement all these things so long ago for older consoles - then the developers here should also have been able to implement just a few of these details in a so-called open world game. Well, I'm disappointed to be running around Hogwarts alone.    … Expand

    Enjoyable but flawed. This game fell short of being something incredible. I will start by saying that I am not a huge fan of the Harry Potter books nor movies, I never truly understood the obsession with it I also couldn't care less about the JK Rowling controversy surrounding the entire universe. So this is a completely unbiased opinion on the game.

    If you are a big fan of all things    Enjoyable but flawed. This game fell short of being something incredible. I will start by saying that I am not a huge fan of the Harry Potter books nor movies, I never truly understood the obsession with it I also couldn't care less about the JK Rowling controversy surrounding the entire universe. So this is a completely unbiased opinion on the game.

    If you are a big fan of all things Harry Potter then I guarantee you will be fully immersed in the universe for countless days before seeing sunlight again. The dialog is detailed and you will see some names/places that you recognise paying homage to the story's. However I think there is far too much pointless dialog/cutscenes meaning when something interesting is actually going to happen I've already skipped it because there isn't enough hours in the day to decipher what is actually worth watching.

    The game has a seemingly diverse group of enemies to begin with however after playing the game for any length of time you'll realise that they all feel similar when fighting against them making for less engaging gameplay once you know the typical behaviours of each enemy.

    Combat is enjoyable you have a large arsenal of spells which you can use to defeat your foes in a variety of manners. There is great depth in that there are different defensive strategies that enemies use meaning you may have to use spells or tactics that you otherwise wouldn't have bringing more diversity to the combat. There are two ways to avoid incoming attacks parry & dodge which in my opinion are far too easy to use when an attack is coming in there is a glow above your characters head either gold/red depending on if you can parry the attack. By giving away which defence you must use along with the huge amount of time given to perform these defensive manoeuvres they have made it very easy to abuse this system making the combat incredibly easy no matter which difficulty setting you are playing on.

    The HUD is cluttered and causes a lack in immersion luckily there are settings in the menu to hide some of the less necessary features.

    In conclusion is this not an exciting action packed game where you will be challenged in combat but it is a immersive experience taking you to Harry Potter world like you've never seen it before.    … Expand

First of all, I will say combat is incredible. For the most part it’s pretty easy, but what it lacks in difficulty it makes up for in making you feel badass. The way your character spins and twirls as they fire off a variety of spells feels as though you’re pulling off some incredible feats, especially when you get into the flow in a larger scale fight. Changing between and comboing different spells and spell sets that you build up over the course of the game feels cool too. Nothing like lifting someone up with leviosa, and pounding them back down with descendo, or hitting a goblin with its own axe after an expelliarmus.

    However the open world, especially outside of the admittedly clearly lovingly crafted Hogwarts, and possibly Hogsmead (although nowhere near the level of hogwarts) is miserable. Empty spare a few distant villages and the occasional enemy encounter. The sidequests and challenges dotted throughout the highlands usually offer little more than repetitive tasks with lacklustre rewards. Bar a select few side missions, usually the ones given by more story centric characters, any side quests given usually amount to a fetch quest, with at best a cosmetic reward, if not just a new prop for the relatively pointless room of requirement.

    The motivation to do these menial side missions is even lower due to the interchangeably awful voice acting and writing. It feels like if it’s not the writing that’s off, it’s the acting and vice versa. I would say the acting isn’t as bad as it could’ve been, but the writing reaches lower echelon Bethesda more often than not.

    I’ve got around 25-30 hours in at the time of writing, and while I may put in a few more, to conclude storylines with a couple of the more likeable side characters, I cannot see myself returning. For all the perks of the combat, there are issues with the empty open world, occasionally frustrating controls (one mount you gain access to is a right pain to make land) and, unmentioned so far, a very bizarre lack of ambiance? Hogwarts feels less like a bustling school, and more like I’m stood 50 yards outside one. The hallways are filled with distant chatter, and the occasional Skyrim esc comment, ‘I sure hate Herbology, it’s so boring’ and the like, but it feels flat, empty, to me at least. As previously stated, exploration is often unrewarding, offering a swathe of chests to open with little reward, or perhaps a vaguely interesting location, but more often than not I felt no motivation to explore after the first couple of hours. Once you’ve seen 30 doors end in a very similar corridor or classroom, you’ve seen them all. And hogwarts remains the best area in the game for exploration, probably solely because it’s hogwarts, everyone at some point has thought it’d be kind of cool to run around the castle. Outside, there’s a surprisingly large map, (that the game has no problem making you trek across for certain missions) filled with little more than the occasional bandit camp or spider nest, or a hamlet, with a sidequest and a few meaningless chests dotted about. Loot is it’s own can of worms, being a game made post 2015 it’s got that loot system that every publisher seems to think is mandatory now. Luckily, for once, this game has come with a decent transmog system built in. The biggest issue here though is eventually you reach appoint where you’re sufficiently happy with how your character looks, and new gear becomes relatively meaningless, past being a bigger number. Except for another issue I had towards the end of the story. At some point (probably around level 30ish?) I stopped getting gear that was stronger than what I already had. It would be a higher level, but the stats were almost always a few lower than the gear I already had. This obviously lead to me very rapidly getting bored of the loot system, which as already stated, is the games primary reward system.

    The game for me ranges anywhere between a 5 and a 7, maybe an 8 at times (the combat clicked really well for whatever reason). Obviously enjoy what you enjoy, I’m probably not as into Harry Potter as I could be, but the honeymoon phase didn’t last long with this game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Overall Hogwarts Legacy could have been worse. It has a good foundation, good graphic and stable fps, BUT a lot of stuff is just missing. There is no Companion System like they said. You can't take NPC's with you on Adventure. You can't interact with NPC's when you meet them in Hogwarts. You can't go drink a Butterbeer, play Wizards Chess or Gobstone. You only interact with the NPC's when they have a Quest for you. All the fun stuff Hogwarts has like Halloween, Yule Ball or Christmas and even Quiddich is not in the game. There are only 4 main Enemies: Humans, Spiders, Goblins or Trolls. Sometimes you see some Wolfes or the Swamp Creatures but they are only in the Open World and never in Quests. A big mistake are the unforgivable curses! The first you get in a mission and it has a reason you learn it but the others are just like: hey I can learn it to you. You can cast them infront of your Professors without a reaction and the whole game is build about saving Ann what you could at the end if you are evil but well you can't because the game ends before and the quest is suddenly over. Anne is gone! The lessions are cutscenes and you are more outside of hogwarts than really in school. No consequences about that either. There is also no NG+ or anything that would male the game worthy of a second playtrough. It is just said!… Expand

    It's practically a semi-replica of Zelda:Breath of the Wild with a harry potter theme and a main hero that can talk. It will probably impress you for the first few hours of gameplay; the artwork is impeccable inside Hogwarts (10/10 to mappers for that); the 'grinding' of the game is more or less addictive while the combat is pretty good as well as part of the story.

It's hard to not play such a massive game with some much at your fingertips and have no option to see or enjoy others scenery, personally other than an amazing visually appealing game that's the best aspect of the game. The story feels like it needed work, and personally feel that the game was slightly false advertised with stating you get to make the future or control the path of your wizard. But then remove the consequence factor from the game completely, you cannot truly be a dark wizard in the game. You can do dark wizard things but, killings or using unforgivable curses is not unforgivable. The story is ultimately set for you to be the hero regardless of the path you take, there are also to me. Key missing Harry Potter elements, with hufflepuff you can visit the prison of Azkaban, but otherwise you will never see Azkaban. Despite using unforgiving curses yourself, you also do not actually get to interact with the demintor encounter or use a patronis charm, quiddictch is canceled, all year. The basilisk is only really mentioned. These are key parts of the Harry Potter world in my opinion. Decorating the room of requirements is nice. But being able to use the chairs and table for more than just looking would have been nice. The final boss fight personally was a HUGE disappointment, and the Evil wizard ending even more disappointing than the fight itself. The game has its pros, but it is far from without its cons as well. Of course to each their own, I personally wanted more from the create your own wizard, make your own path that was advertised. Not being able to act as Tom riddle and be a violent murderous wizard while still attending classes or even recruiting other students into Faction that later would become my dark wizard organization. The store they give you to sell items was very underwhelming. I'm sure there will be updates. But having finished the game already it's more of a one and done game atleast for the time being, I do not feel any need to rush through every house story, as they all still follow an exact script.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pros:

    - The combat is fine. While it's nothing amazing, it's also not bad.

    - The world is decent. While I've never been a fan of gothic / older British buildings, it still captures the theme that is Harry Potter.

    - The story is decent enough, while it's the typical good guy beats bad guy formulae, there's still enough mystery and intriguing characters (namely Sebastian) in there to spice it up.

    Cons:

    - The gearing in this game doesn't feel good. Receiving an epic or legendary piece of gear that is oftentimes worse than a rare piece of gear and quickly out levelling it is not good design as it takes away player power. The quest rewards also for the most part feel unsatisfying.

    - Despite being able to increase your inventory capacity through Merlin Trials, it is tedious to have to constantly juggle the low amount of space you start with.    … Expand

Characters that don't stand out enough, a predictable and uninteresting main quest... You can see straight away that Avalanche software isn't used to making games on a grand scale. The game does have its qualities, however: the soundtrack, for example, is discreet but quite captivating... the art direction is well worked out, even if the technical side is not up to scratch. The game's main positive point is its UNIVERSE. The "Harry Potter" universe is ultra-well represented, and Hogwarts makes you want to explore it like pre-lard, bravo to Avalanche Software for their love of this license.

    To conclude: Hogwarts Legacy isn't a bad game by any means... but it is rather generic, a little too similar to Ubisoft's opens World... Too big, too much to do for not much... If the game wasn't in the Harry Potter universe, the criticism from gamers and the press wouldn't be the same...    … Expand

    Hogwarts Legacy is littered with small niggles which, when stacked together, make the game feel like it was released over a decade ago. While the castle is a large enough area to explore, the monotony of repeating quests and tasks makes the game feel last-generation and boring over time. Hogwarts Legacy could already use some DLC's in order to expand the size of the world, add more complex spells, and introduce a wider array of enemies. If you are a power-nerd looking for a new and complete RPG, you will have to wait for Star Wars: Jedi Survivor, coming in April 2023. While most critics agree that Hogwarts Legacy is near perfect, due to the incomplete feeling of the game and lack of a solid story arc, it feels more Muggle than magic.

    Hogwarts Legacy is an extremely fun adventure, despite having some graphic and narrative difficulties. In the vast open world, which makes it possible to explore popular locations and live like a typical Hogwarts student, you will face interesting challenges in the path of unraveling the main mystery of the game. Even though it's an exciting adventure, even a muggle like me manages, at a certain point, to miss a greater magic to deliver everything that the fans expected.
