    Muy divertido, el combate, música, el castillo y el mundo abierto, la libertad de volar en escoba o con montura, tiene cosas que tiene q arreglar pero poco a poco lo irán puliendo.

    Possible GOTY, a beautiful world, decent gameplay and combat. Enchanting characters and a captivating story. I have experienced 1 bug, not problematic or game breaking. All the people rating it 0 are being very petty, a game should be rated on its own merits, not on prejudices. One would argue the writer is prejudice? So two wrongs make a right? No!

    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.

    It is an absolute joy to play. You are rewarded for every action playing this newly imagined exploratory game by WB Avalanche. There are good and bad people in power with opinions worse than the original author of this wizard world. Why not let the original author's opinion pass also. All people deserve a chance to experience this incredible adventure.

    Absolutely enjoyed it since picking up the controller! Nice graphics, lore, and customization of characters (not bad). The fact it is open world is a plus and the combat isn't bad. Whether you a Harry Potter fan or not, this game is worth grabbing and enjoying hours upon hours of fun! You can also pick the house you want to be in- Team Slitherin!

    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

    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.    … Expand

I feel that you as a player makes a good protagonist throughout the game, you dont need the characters from the movies or the books. Im not a huge Harry Potter fan so to my knowledge the game doest follow any book but takes on its own journey and that journey is fun and intruiging. I have not finished the game but am roughly halfway and the characters are, while not perhaps top notch exciting and interesting, they are good enough for fillers and NPC's with perfectly fine dialogue, quest giving and animation. Voice acting is imo good and doesnt sound forced, fake or like someone is reading from a script. Graphics and animation is very good imo and you can clearly see all the details you ned to see. Some magic makes the screen extremely, extremely bright, something i first thought was a bug or a huge graphical error but no, it's just magic that you can get rid of. In the beginning the "fighting" is repetitive with only a few spells but it get loads better as you progress and you learn new spells and potions and using mounts. You can choose to follow the main story line, but there are quite a bunch of side quests, perhaps too many because occasionally they appear in the same area and for a while i lost track of the number of side quests i had. The mini map is quite excellent with a clear and disctint route for you to take if you are tracking a quest. The world map and hogwarts map is, for me, quite bad and not user friendly although im not sure how they could have done it otherwise. It works fine as such but it feels like a big overlay with general sections instead of a map and maybe that's the idea. The world map is better then because it's more clear where you are going. Customization is also excellent and I do believe you can look like any piece of gear that you pick up, from hats down to the regular clothes on your back. The clothes and the gear fits the universe very well imo and i cant say that im missing any kind of equipment. At ffirst i felt i didnt want to look like a 14 year old schoolboy but that dissapeared rather quickly as i progressed and found a cloak and kind of cool looking facemasks, yes... there are masks! Hogwarts is huge! And i mean huge! It's very nicely done with a very high level of detail to the area like flying books, moving paintings and talking travel points and ghosts flying around. I still havent learned it so i still have to use tracking and just follow the minimap. The game is good and alot of fund and I DO feel that if you dont at least try the game you are missing out. It's not perfect by any means but it's not at all a bad game, not at all. It's loads of fun, it's interesting, it's exciting and some quests will just pull you in and you just want more because the game sucessfully creates that kind of environment. It's not complicated, it's actually very simple and story driven, but you can do more that just follow the story and it makes you feel like you are actually a student at Hogwarts. A fitting game to the Harry Potter universe.… Expand

    As a non Harry potter fan I am pleasantly surprised by this game. I still have trouble with all the terminology but I am a fan. Looks amazing, voices are great and and honestly I couldn't care less about nontroversy surrounding this game.

    Amazing game, the attention to detail is mindblowing. Not seen a door you couldn't go through yet. Crazy after growing up with harry potter I can finally walk around the castle. GOTY easy.

    This is the game every single Harry Potter fan deserved, we can finally immerse ourselves in a game and re-live the world of magic like we have dreamed about for years.

    I also want to add that J. K. Rowling is a great person and her opinion is perfectly healthy and I totally support her.

    Beautiful, well crafted and immersive world with a ton of secrets and easter eggs for fans of Harry Potter. Very much story driven progression system.

As for RPG elements, this game isn't deep (more like Witcher, unlike Mass Effect if that makes sense). Well written dialogues and characters. I was pleasantly surprised by how diverse and interesting all the professors are to speak and interact with. My first playthrough was as a Slytherin and I loved the house companion's side story. I can't say much for the other houses as haven't tried them yet. Overall I am overly amazed with this one, as I was hesitant to purchase it early. This game is not perfect and there are things I would like to see changed or added, i.e.: more variety in enemies, more gear and clothing options, increased inventory size (I think everyone can agree on this one), more beast/creatures.… Expand

    What a great game. I've got just over 20 hours of play now and I'm nowhere near the end.

    Let's start with the story: We play a male/female character who first comes to Hogwarts in his 5th year. Here we quickly find out that we have access to "ancient magic" which lets us see things that others cannot. At the same time, an evil goblin named Ranrok is haunting the lands of Hogwarts. But I    What a great game. I've got just over 20 hours of play now and I'm nowhere near the end.

    Let's start with the story:

    We play a male/female character who first comes to Hogwarts in his 5th year. Here we quickly find out that we have access to "ancient magic" which lets us see things that others cannot. At the same time, an evil goblin named Ranrok is haunting the lands of Hogwarts. But I won't tell you more.

    Up to this point, the story is built on different strands, based on different characters. This means that only when we have made a certain progress with the main characters does the story progress.

    Now to the gameplay:

    Casting spells, flying, puzzling. And it's all damn good and coherent! Fluid combat system with many possible combinations and much more! Flying is also very fun. The puzzles are not very difficult, but can still be challenging.

    Graphics and map:

    Damn, this game looks fabulous! Beautifully animated and you can see how much love has gone into the details. The map is big, so you can be prepared for that. There is a lot to explore away from Hogwarts and Hogsmeade!

    About the soundtrack:

    Beautifully composed songs, which of course also include parts of the original Harry Potter music. A must for fans!

    Criticisms:

    1. Pre-set sentences repeat themselves very often. For example, our character says the same sentence over and over again when he enters Hogsmeade.

    2. The side missions are sometimes boring (very few). Find so and so many items. The typical open-world stuff that you can actually do without.

    But despite all that, that's not a point deduction for me. For me, it's a game that almost couldn't have been better.    … Expand

    Hogwarts Legacy is an enchanting experience that perfectly captures the magic of the Wizarding World.

    Hogwarts Legacy is a dream game for many, fortunately for everyone, the dream is real but even more fortunate for that is that the dream is sweat and lovely. It has surpassed every expectations that it has set.

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!    … 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.
