Playtime: 70 Hours
"Hogwarts Legacy" is a game for fans of the Wizarding World. The game really captures the feeling that the movies gave me back then, what Hogwarts and the world around the castle feels like. This feeling makes up for the formulaic structure of the open world and the quests and is definitely the game's greatest strength in my opinion. The characters are certainly memorable, but the story is not. In fact, I found it extremely boring and predictable. However, similar to Skyrim, the side stories are convincing.
I was very skeptical about the gameplay, especially the combat system, before playing the game, but I think the combat and flying on the broom is actually very successful. However, "Hogwarts Legacy" is technically not as clean as it should be. Unfortunately, I often had frame drops, reloading textures, clipping errors and graphical misrepresentations. This never ruined the game, but it was annoying.
Nevertheless, the adventure, in which I was often able to make important decisions, entertained me well and I am glad to have finally experienced Hogwarts for myself.
