    Everything a potter fan could have asked for. Wonderful open world filled with the magical elements we hoped/loved, it's a teal pleasure to walk in the rooms and corridors of Hogwarts and watch all the details programmers have put in. GOTY !

    Absolutely incredible the amount off detail in this game is beyond my imagination. Superb effort by the Devs on this game and all the writers and mission designers. each night after work when I go on it blows me away with the content it keeps giving me! One of the best games ever made hands down!

    About the game though. A beautiful game to experience. It's clear a lot of time went into designing Hogwarts and the area surrounding it. The amount of detail in the game and the graphics are just phenomenal! On top of that the atmosphere with ambience and music is on point. Gameplay wise the game is very good as well. There is a heavy focus on exploration which just feels well done and rewarding with a good mix of puzzles. The combat is very good as well. The beginning obviously is quite basic since you only have a few spells but the further you get in the game with more spells unlocked and with more talents available, the combat just feels very smooth and satisfying. Difficulty is just right for me on normal, at times a bit challenging and at times not so much. The customization of your character is also pretty extensive with a good amount of options to choose from in the beginning and quite a big wardrobe of cosmetics to collect throughout the game. Quests are varied enough for me, they don't feel repetitive and I enjoy doing all the little side things the game has to offer. About the story I can't say much because I'm not super far into it but so far it's fine although nothing groundbreaking here.

    Overall a very enjoyable Adventure/RPG game to play, especially if you love the Harry Potter universe!

    Love the game been waiting for years for a game from the harry potter world, a must-play for any Harry Potter fan.
    The only downside for me was how few companions you can interact with and how limited it was, I would have loved it more if it had more school experiences and classes.

    Stealth player review. Played on Series S.

    Stealth is not only an option, it is an incredibly fun way to play. Early in the game you will learn an invisibility spell and how to magically subdue opponents. Anyone that has played Assassin’s Creed will feel right at home. In some cases you can clear an entire camp by just knocking everyone out. In other cases you can pick off the stragglers before launching into open attack.

    Another stealth tactic I use is to cast a spell while invisible that pulls a target to me, hit them with two fire spells and finish them off with a wand if need be. Even if this alerts other enemies (often it doesn’t), by the time they have began to respond you have finished combat and dropped back into stealth. When they come looking for you simply maneuver to flank them and stun as many as you can.

    In open combat it is easy to take on up to three enemies. Four on up becomes an issue as spell cooldowns limits damage output. You can have up to 16 spells equipped, broken in to 4 groups of 4 bound to the D pad. If you are dexterous (I am not) you can switch between groups on the fly making it so that you never have to wait for a cooldown. If you do not like to swap spells during combat then I got you covered… potions and helpful flora.

    Potions once upgraded do things like making you invulnerable for a short time, or make an electrical storm stun, and I believe it damages enemies too. Or you can from stealth toss out some vicious carnivores cabbages that will cause mayhem that never gets old to watch. Toss a plant that acts as a stationary magic firing ally. The various potions and flora at your disposal can make an otherwise tough fight a lot less tough.

    There are many things you can do without breaking stealth including casting some spells, tossing out flora friends and I think you can drink potions too. As for the gameplay and story… it is amazing! Been a while since I have seen such a polished game upon release. The flow of the game is amazing as everything seems connected. For example I thought the base building and animal husbandry would be boring filler. Instead items received by caring for the animals was used to make upgrades to my armor. Another example are some side tasks that do things like expand your inventory for doing so.

    Minor gripes.

    Seen many beds, but never seen anyone sleeping in them. Perhaps they turn themselves invisible then levitate above their beds wrapped in a cloak of invisibility?! A save bug caused me to lose an hour and a half of gameplay. When doing a manual save it should take three seconds or so. If it takes a lot longer then probably best to exit the game and reload the last save.

    All in all one of the best games I have ever played. An exceptional level of detail and polish make this game perhaps one of the greats.

A surprising game and one I had not expected to play. But it is good, and is really good fun.

    muito bom, caprichado em detalhes, o jogo que todo fã do universo HP gostaria e o melhor colocando um personagem novo você sem ser baseado na historia que todos ja sabem

    Je n'attendais pas grand chose du jeu, eh bien c'est une agréable surprise. On sent que les développeurs derrière le projet sont de vrais passionnés de l'univers de JK Rowling et il y a une véritable volonté de délivrer un jeu de qualité, on n'est plus habitué à ça avec cette industrie...
    Poudlard est superbement reconstitué, le gameplay est réussi et dynamique (c'était pas gagné

    Poudlard est superbement reconstitué, le gameplay est réussi et dynamique (c'était pas gagné d'avance), les graphismes sont très beaux et on prend plaisir à explorer le chateau et l'extérieur.

    Points négatifs : des soucis de performance qui, j'espère, seront réglés bientôt et une quête principale qui aurait pu être plus intéressante.
    Mais la très bonne impression d'ensemble du titre fait que je lui donne quand même 9/10

    This game is brilliant, like I'm completely immersed into Hogwarts and the magic world, the combat system is fun, the storyline is quite good, the map is astonishing, as a Harry Potter fans, I'm very impressed and satisfied.

    But here's few things I'm not okay with 1. The alohomora is bit too much, first few time is ok, but keep playing the unlock mini game afterward is a bit annoying 2.

    But here's few things I'm not okay with
    1. The alohomora is bit too much, first few time is ok, but keep playing the unlock mini game afterward is a bit annoying
    2. Some side quests are a bit repetitive and boring, I know is inevitable, but try to learn witcher 3, make the story of side quest funnier.
    3. The type of enemies and their mode of attack lack variety
    4. The interaction between us and npc are very few, like most of the I'm a lonewolf... I wish I can have some npc friends like Ron and Hermione
    5. The common room of the college, but not very interactive, also the playable part about college is not so many, usually appear in lines and 1 to 2 side quest only, it makes me feel like I'm a student of hogwarts only, belongs to which college is not matter to me.

    No wizard chess is ok to me, after all, is difficult to teach people play chess in game, and if the chess is easy, it will be a little dumb, if it's too difficult, it will painful to not good at chess player. And I'm really looking forward seeing how quidditch is presented, I think is not easy to make it good.

    Overall, avalance u did a good job, but keep going, don't mess up in upcoming dlc or sequel. I'm looking forward seeing London, Diagon Alley, the MoM and more.

    Game is great, didnt have so much fun exploring since TES IV. I can only imagine what 1-2 patches maybe an addon can add on top to a already very good playerexperience.

    Also would love to explore this world on a PS VR2 in the future !!

    We all have to put out there for this studio to know: This game is so **** good! The love and hard work that I am seeing is mindblowing! I literally lost myself exploring the castle, didn't know where I was, from where I came, but was a feeling of lost that I didn't experienced with a game for like 5 years. I just wanted to explore more and more and see all the little details.We all have to put out there for this studio to know: This game is so **** good!

    I do not usually play single player games, but so far I have had a ton of fun with this game. I do not really consider very many things outside of the game. Just from a perspective of "did I have fun playing the video game?" yes, very much so. There is a ton of content to explore, there are a ton of other great features about the game, and it's great.

    Wasn't a huge Potter fan before playing but have become one. The first 30 hours which you're spending a huge amount of time in the castle was pure magic and found it brilliant. The second half of the game out in the world was less spectacular but still good fun. A bit repetitious.

I have it installed on PC, Steam Deck and XBSX and it scales and plays great on all those platforms. The visuals are sumptuous, audio and voice acting are great, and the open world is brimming with content.

    After all the hype surrounding Elden Ring (which I never bought or played because it just didn’t appeal to me as a world and visuals looked disappointing, and the gameplay far too hardcore), finally we have a game whose hype is actually justified.

    It reminds me of the first Fable game but is more free and open, richer and more rewarding. It’s like the Fable I’ve always wanted to play. I’m not really a massive Harry Potter fan, but you don’t need to be. Just play this to appreciate the artistry of the devs and their passion for the project. Definitely game of the year so far from me.

    Life has been absolute garbage lately, so it's been nice to escape into a pretty decent game for a couple of weeks. Yes, JK Rowling is garbage,but so is the company that makes your phone using slave labor, or the multi conglomerate that makes your food using land they stole from some Latin American country in the 50s while paying their field workers 25 cents a day.

    Hogwarts Legacy is a blast to play. This is a game where I felt compelled to just do everything. It took me a long time to beat the main story since I was getting so distracted by the side missions. Playing as a wizard is so much fun. My only complaint is on the enemy variety. I felt like there were way too many spider fights but not enough fights against enemy wizards. This game is aHogwarts Legacy is a blast to play.

    Hogwarts Legacy is a great adventure, but only for those Harry Potter fans who rarely play video games.

    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.
