I've always been a Potterhead (still have the 1st edition of the 1st book - the Portuguese translated version), I've read all the books, seen all the movies, played all the PC games, and still have some collectables (I still get shirts from the franchise till today too!). When I was younger, I even memorized spells and was fascinated by the creatures and world-building the Harry Potter universe has. Whether people like J.K. Rowling or not for her political views, she is a genius and one of my favourite writers of all time! I am eternally thankful for what she created, and all the magical stories she wrote!

Since ever, I've always dreamed about a game like this - a vast open world in and outside Hogwarts, where we can create our own character and pick her/his house + fly around on a broom or a creature. Hogwarts Legacy came to make my dream - and that of many other Potterheads - come true! I have no regrets about pre-ordering the Deluxe Edition, this is such a beautiful game!

I just have a few performance issues (my current specs are RTX 3070ti + 16GB 5200MHz DDR5 RAM + Ryzen 5 7600X + SSD Sata III), but I hope either NVidia releases drivers that fix this, or Avalanche Studios patches it up. Still, this does not take out the joy I have for this game!

>>EDIT: Increased my RAM to 32GB, it runs very smooth now with everything on Ultra + Ray Tracing!

There's a lot to explore, mysteries to solve, and spells to learn! Also, it's important to note that we can pet all the cats!!!

Truly an unforgettable experience, a game of the year!
