Really better than it has any right to be from a studio that hasn't attempted anything at this scale.

Solid story (nothing too deep here), good puzzles, and surprisingly captivating gameplay for a magic-focused title. However, this game really shines in its world-design, while exploring Hogwarts it's really impressive to see how much detail, and small-mini puzzles and hidden areas are crammed into the world. Anyone who's a completionist or exploration-focused player will really enjoy what they've put together here.

Highly recommend picking this one up regardless of if you've paid attention to the Harry potter series beforehand.

Oferecer uma experiência que pode ser moldada pelo jogador é algo que Hogwarts Legacy faz muito bem. Contudo, o jogo poderia ser melhor em termos de campanha.
O mundo aberto de Hogwarts Legacy é vasto, mas carece de variedade. Da mesma forma, a história tenta ser super cinematográfica, mas não impressiona.
Estima-se que o RPG ficou em desenvolvimento por cerca de oito anos. Mesmo assim, a impressão é de que o projeto precisava de um pouco mais de tempo no forno para que ajustes fossem feitos.
Outro fator que deixa a desejar é o desempenho dos modos gráficos, que, em grande parte, fazem o jogo rodar com lentidão e saltos entre quadros. Nos testes realizados no MEU PC ( RYZEN 7 5700X + 4060TI ), o Modo Alto com DLSS se mostrou a única forma equilibrada e fluída de jogar o game.

I'm obsessed with harry potter and i could not help myself to finish this game
BORING characters and boring exploration. Only good thing is the castle.
Exploring outside does not give you any reward and literally every chest is a fucking piece of clothe that looks goofier than the previous one.
extremely childish and awkward dialogues and the main character (us) is fucking CRINGE, this game needed meaner responses.
boring side quest and i couldn't care less for any of the characters in the game
like 10 hours in or sth i can't go any longer

This game was enjoyable and nostalgic due of the Harry Potter series, but I doubt it would have been as popular without the film series' support.

Overall, unless you're a huge fan of the Wizarding Worlds, the game is very repetitive and, to be honest, quite easy. Even though you have so many spells to choose from, the fighting and action tends to be the same over and over again, the bosses are easier than some of the creatures you find around the world, and you can pretty much predict where the story is going.

The game was enjoyable, but I believe the story focuses mostly on the ancient magic aspect rather than the going to school aspect; the lessons you attend are so limited and meaningless, serving only to provide you with a spell to use. I think this was a missed opportunity.

The minigames were enjoyable but short. The flying minigame had only three levels, which was quite frustrating since I struggled to fly at first but eventually got quite good at it! Summoner's Court had a lot more levels, but it still finished quickly, sadly.

I did enjoy playing the game, and I don't want to just trash it because I see myself coming back to it in the future, and I'm still trying to platinum it, but I do believe there were parts missing in this game that would have made it the perfect game that didn't focus on the main Harry Potter story we already know! If you haven't played it yet, I highly recommend it.

All in all, just a really fun game. The combat really carries the game especially with all the repitition by the end. Chaining different spells never got old even when fighting the same enemies over and over agian. This game is very close to 10/10 but two things hold it back. The first is that the story doesn't center around hogwarts enough. Most of the game takes place in generic fields or dungeons and not in Hogwarts. They made perhaps the most spectacular structure in video game history with Hogwarts but didn't use it for gameplay other than a collectathon. The second issue is that there is no weight to player choice. The main character is too generic and doesn't ever feel like a real person. No parents, no backstory, no past life etc.

This is like a cool Disney ride through Hogwarts and it's neighborhood. You can see the sights, creatures, and references to your favorite moments from Harry Potter... and that's about it. The combat gets boring within like 3 hours, the story is honestly just an excuse for you to visit the aforementioned cool sights. The open world is RIDICULOUSLY bloated with shitty open-world collectibles. Overall it's nice enough of a time for me to recommend it, especially if you are into Harry Potter, but this game overall is really nothing special.
