[jade peak]

ok

[royal current]

agreed, although despite how minor felix felicis is i still hate that it's locked behind a preorder exclusive on two consoles

[plucky patio]

Same but it happens

[umbral shore]

I preordered the deluxe edition mainly for early access

[outer furnace]

i hate that

[royal current]

i ordered it for the:

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/954116399339540511/1060290737876500621/giphy.gif

[simple nymph]

Same 😂

[royal current]

...

flop

[outer furnace]

its not really fair on anyone

[plucky patio]

Same and for the arena and the thestral

[vivid monolith]

Yeah, at least we get onyx and if you get Felix wa inch of other cool stuff.

And house robes if you connect your accounts.

[outer furnace]

i don't mind preorder exclusive items

[royal current]

the quest comes in a year so i'm not that sad tbh, but FELIX...

[plucky patio]

Yes the hogsmeade shop quest

[vivid monolith]

FELIX

[royal current]

me neither, but locking those preorder exclusives behind one platform is so 💩

[umbral shore]

Anyone know about how wands will work? Will we get different ones or will there be customization?

[simple nymph]

Could have been worse, the game could have been fully playstation exclusive

[dreamy pendant]

Thats the playstation way

Hence y ps sucks

[plucky patio]

Thank god it isn’t but that still wouldn’t have been fair

[royal current]

lowkey i would've bought a playstation just for this game, i was actually planning on doing that, i even went as far as buying the same on sony too in addition to pc, but i couldn't find a ps5 anywhere

[vivid monolith]

Oh no… 🤮

[dreamy pendant]

Better specs on xbox

[plucky patio]

Much better

[simple nymph]

For me PlayStation has exclusive games (Horizon, The Last of Us, Final Fantasy and a couple other titles) that I am interested in and made me get the system, so the small bonuses are nice but I do think it is very unfair for people missing out on a potion and having to wait a full year to do a questline..

[plucky patio]

A year will go by quick I got over the exclusive stuff

It’s how the game industry works

[bitter igloo]

i mean i don't care for the potion, people will be taking screenshots of the map when having used the potion so others can see the stuff

[dreamy pendant]

Plus the quick resume such a good feature

[plucky patio]

Same I love my series s forza horizon 5 looks beautiful and ac odessey

[vivid monolith]

The only acs I bothered to play was black flag and unity.

[bitter igloo]

black flag was sooo amazing

[vivid monolith]

Ong

[bitter igloo]

had the best time of my life playing that game

[dreamy pendant]

Black flag was amazing

[vivid monolith]

I forgot it was a assassin’s game,

[royal current]

yeah it's just the fomo

[vivid monolith]

felt more like a awesome pirate game.

[dreamy pendant]

I bought a guide to 100% it i loved it so much

[bitter igloo]

hmm only fomo i get is cause of the quest tbh

[royal current]

idm the quest since we get it in a year anyway

but without the potion the game feels incomplete

it's felix felicis

even tho its function is actually terrible in the game

It's still the super iconic felix felicis

[bitter igloo]

but i mean all it does is give you one days worth to see chest's on the map that are hidden

[dreamy pendant]

Id laugh if the just got recipe right off rip and its found in game hidden

[royal current]

exactly, that's what i mean by saying its function is terrible, but it's the fact that it's such an iconic potion that's being locked that's making me be likeeee

[royal current]

that's what is probably going to happen lmao

[bitter igloo]

question is imagine if we can still make it, but we can't just get the recipe, cause all that ps is getting is the recipe for the potion

like what would happen if we tried to make the potion without a recipe, if thats even possible

[dreamy pendant]

Exactly what if they get recipe but impossible to find items to make lol

That or cant make it til late game

[glass path]

They already announced that you only PS can craft it

Not just the recipe, but the entire potion

[bitter igloo]

well that's kinda sad i guess

[silent snow]

And i think it takes a long time to brew, its a very difficult potion

[dreamy pendant]

Source plz

[dreamy pendant]

Cant be harder then animagus tho

[bitter igloo]

it is only the potion recipe

[blazing dock]

Pc players won’t get the felix potion in the start right ?

[plucky patio]

At all

[blazing dock]

Demnnn

[plucky patio]

The hogsmeade shop quest is the only thing other consoles will get after a year

[bitter igloo]

so yea ps only gets the recipe

[royal current]

😭 😭 😭

[lapis flicker]

Dint they say that after a year even Xbox and pc players will be getting this

[plucky patio]

No

[royal current]

they said that about the quest

[lapis flicker]

It’s only exclusive release for ps people rn?

[royal current]

not the potion

[plucky patio]

Only the hogsmeade shop quest 🤦‍♀️

[bitter igloo]

idk, i do know tho that they have said that about the quest

[lapis flicker]

Ohhh my bad then

[bitter igloo]

honestly kinda dumb that they had the chance to do that and actually did it

[fossil ridge]

For being really a little bit clear about bonus from the pre order, just look on the screenshot 👀

[bitter igloo]

i would have really liked the kelpierobes from the collectors edition but that's pretty much all that i think is cool from that edition

[tawdry sigil]

Opened instagram and why is everyone hating on that cat petting graphics

[tidal storm]

i have the standard

[trail copper]

so did spoilers become the new general chat? xD

[bitter igloo]

i get it, it looks like it isn't even in the game with those graphics

[oak gyro]

yes it has

[trail copper]

lmao ofc

[fossil ridge]

If you want the dark arts pack later, its possible to buy it after the lunch in the menu of the game 👀

[tidal storm]

Yes I saw

[tawdry sigil]

Yeah but honestly when i see it i just thought it sas a patronous or however its spelled

[tidal storm]

Look at the color of the hair

[trail copper]

ooh that's a pretty teal!

[fossil ridge]

Oooh i love the Green hair 👀💖

[tawdry sigil]

I thought it was seaweed color not teal o-o

[oak gyro]

That's actually a good color lmao

[tidal storm]

It’s fantastic

Lol

[feral locust]

ooo I love it

[trail copper]

i like the shading too! it's darker at the top and lighter at the bottom.

[pearl copper]

how did they do the demo

do they just kick u out after 2 hours?

[bitter igloo]

i think he was asking where the guy got the info from that says they also get the potion itself, and not just recipe

[tawdry sigil]

For the people who haven't actually seen the series in ages what is the felix potion?

[tidal storm]

yea

[sour tundra]

Chandler also says the potion is PS exclusive. https://twitter.com/finchstrife/status/1562872577126572032

[trail copper]

@tawdry sigil luck potion, i think.

[tawdry sigil]

Who needs luck when you have a minigun

[warped hare]

oh we only get the recipe the support was weird with there wording

[trail copper]

i mean true lol

[upbeat plank]

Tbh I feel like the haunted shop should've been a PC exclusive instead of PS5 getting all the goods

[cursive comet]

remember is a the -recipe- for the luck potion

[pearl copper]

I'm surprised at how the game didn't get leaked with that demo

[cursive comet]

u still need to craft it

[royal current]

he also confirms the potion itself is exclusive

[tawdry sigil]

Just a potion that gives us a perma plus 1 stat

[royal current]

oh nvm, that wasn't what u wanted to say, sorry

[fossil ridge]

And in game, it helps you to find chests in maps, for few minutes .. if you didn't know it 👀

[royal current]

yeah pretty much one in game day

[warped hare]

1 whole in game day yeaah

[plucky patio]

Just for a year Xbox and pc will get it later

[dreamy pendant]

This

[tawdry sigil]

I'm 100% gonna end up not using it saying i'll have a time for it later

[trail copper]

so can non-PS users still technically get the felix potion?

[ionic vapor]

Making it an exclusive is so stupid considering how hard it is to get the PS5 and then the PS4 release date got pushed back

[sour tundra]

According to Chandler, no (I posted this above, too): https://twitter.com/finchstrife/status/1562872577126572032

[bitter igloo]

i dont think so

[fossil ridge]

Lucky me, i bought deluxe for my ps4, even if i have the deluxe for my xbox series x too 😅🫣

[trail copper]

ah, that's a pain.

[versed sparrow]

Hello. I think this question is extremely important - is it possible to complete ALL side quests after the story? Or will there be sides that can be skipped? Maybe someone know this?

[plucky patio]

That hasn’t been said

[warped hare]

this is what support said https://twitter.com/WBGamesSupport/status/1615114603083481088?s=20&t=2f9kJf2IqIPHjrmtR9GFig

[plucky patio]

Or implied

[sour tundra]

Yeah, I'm hoping maybe he's mistaken.

[trail copper]

thank you.

[trail copper]

i mean. i figured if it's just a recipe, that means that it's in the code, right?

[plucky patio]

I’ll get deluxe for ps4 closer to April but I got deluxe for my series s

[sour tundra]

I would think so.

[fossil ridge]

Ooh twin buddy 😅

[cursive comet]

Soon™️

[trail copper]

so they could easily give it to non-PS users.

[dreamy pendant]

They better has a xbox conterpart for potion like maybe a niffler can do the same with a cool down lol

[versed sparrow]

Hello. I think this question is extremely important - is it possible to complete ALL side quests after the story? Or will there be sides that can be skipped? Maybe someone know this?

[upbeat plank]

I'm getting the deluxe for PS5 on the 3rd.
Torn between physical or digital copy though.
On one hand digital be easier to download, but on the other hand more psychical copies are always nice

[trail copper]

Sony once again stealing the spotlight with dumb exclusives. =w=

[plucky patio]

They haven’t said it so doubt it

[dreamy pendant]

Digital it pre loads

[plucky patio]

Not really could be harder

[royal current]

get digital, it preloads and u get an extra hat that the cd deluxe version doesn't have

[trail copper]

true :/

[dreamy pendant]

I know but one can hope

[royal current]

and u wouldn't lose ur game since it's digital

[upbeat plank]

Just because they haven't said anything doesn't mean it's not possible to be there though

[plucky patio]

Hoping is a long shot

[lost nacelle]

There’s a Karen hairstyle

So you can be a Karen

[upbeat plank]

👌

[dreamy pendant]

And if u get cd u have to wait for day one patch

[plucky patio]

But not giving other consoles a answer about its very doubtful

[dreamy pendant]

Eh yes but always good to have hope

[plucky patio]

Like at least with the hogsmeade shop quest there was an answer

[lost nacelle]

The character character creator looks very immersive

[plucky patio]

I love it

[lost nacelle]

Yeah. I can make it look exactly like me

[upbeat plank]

I kinda wished it was a normal shop instead of haunted
Or we had a choice in if we wanted a haunted one or not ngl

[silk sparrow]

If im a boy, but i identify as a witch can go in girls bathroom i got business in there?

[lost nacelle]

Try it

[dreamy pendant]

To an extent

[lost nacelle]

Who else is going to fly to the limits

[plucky patio]

Same can’t wait

[lost nacelle]

Of eternity

[upbeat plank]

I think I'll use the other mount first.
At least in terms of exploration

[dreamy pendant]

Yes i wanna see how they handle map borders odd i know

[lost nacelle]

Yeah. takes hours

[dreamy pendant]

I wont mind one bit

[lost nacelle]

Yep

[tawdry sigil]

So do you think that the area from the gameplay snip with the dragons fighting was the poacher lair or something

[upbeat plank]

I'm confused bc a YouTuber said that the game isn't really open world with the quests despite the fact that you can p much go everywhere and the quests are easily avoidable irrc.
Apart from certain areas but I still feel like it's still open world and not semi open world like PLA

[cursive comet]

lore wise the stairs were enchanted that should a boy try to enter the girls bathroom, the stairs to it would turn into a slide

[tawdry sigil]

Just ignore the youtubers with their false words and tricks and wait to play

[royal current]

lol really?

what if girls entered a boys dorm

[cursive comet]

im guessing same thing

[royal current]

it better be 👀

[cursive comet]

equality ✊ 😔

[royal current]

i didn't know that tho

that's hilarious

what if the boy still persevered and managed to get up there anyway

is there an other obstacle

[cursive comet]

"'I wonder if Hermione's seen this yet?' Harry said, looking around at the door to the girls' dormitories. 'Let's go and tell her, said Ron. He bounded forward, pulled open the door, and set off up the spiral staircase. He was on the sixth stair when it happened. There was a loud, wailing, klaxonlike sound and the steps melted together to make a long, smooth stone slide. There was a brief moment when Ron tried to keep running, arms working madly like windmills, then he toppled over backward and shot down the newly created slide, coming to rest on his back at Harry's feet. 'Er — I don’t think we're allowed in the girls' dormitories,' said Harry [...]"
— Harry and Ron attempting to ascend the staircase to the girls' dorms in Gryffindor house

[royal current]

use a broom

problem solved

[dreamy pendant]

He meant while on a companion quest u couldnt leave companion and wonder off

[upbeat plank]

OH

[cursive comet]

thats a leak

[oak ridge]

Oh sorry

[bright bison]

not reading that but motherf- please

[cursive comet]

please do not post anything from the artbook here

[oak ridge]

Ok ✅

[dreamy pendant]

Which in any open world game doing a quest means u follow the quest line am i right

[cursive comet]

to answer ur question there is 3 fleshed out companions, poppy, natty and sebby

[bright bison]

Anyway people who categorizes the game as bad or "mid" when the game isn't even out:

[cursive comet]

the rest are just classmates

jesus christ 🤣

[royal current]

💀

[cursive comet]

i actually feel stupider for watching that

[royal current]

i lost braincells

[bright bison]

so far the rest are just classmates

[upbeat plank]

The lock picking mechanic looks 20x more annoying than skyrims oml

[royal current]

alohomora is supposed to be an insta unlock

we're using spells, not lock picks

[trail copper]

it definitely does lol

[royal current]

i still don't understand it

[trail copper]

even more annoying than Warframe's.

Warframe's hacking system.

[royal current]

We're so close guys

I've been scribbling in my books for a while how many days are left when i'm bored in class

[outer furnace]

i am dumber now

[royal current]

and today i found a note of me writing: '84 days' left

[outer furnace]

i regret everything

[royal current]

now that 72 days have passed it feels so good to be this close

[trail copper]

oh god. i'd hate for it to be 86 days still.

[royal current]

rip playstation 4

68 days for them

[trail copper]

double rip switch.

[royal current]

lol switch graphics be like:

https://tenor.com/view/harry-potter-ps1hagrid-gif-15144177

..

[trail copper]

LOL

[dreamy pendant]

Its gonna launch load and crash instantly

[trail copper]

that's probably because they don't want people throwing up leaks in spoiler chat

so no images here i guess

[royal current]

yes

[trail copper]

huh, idk then

[royal current]

stupid ai switched eye colors..

i wanted hazel eyes for my character and blue eyes for the snake

but i guess my character is a proto voldemort

since the ai interpreted him as the snake

💀

[shut trellis]

I’m gonna pretend the reason I can’t play quidditch is I got a serious injury and I’m recovering so i only do broom flight

[dreamy pendant]

I see no snake just dragon wanna be thing

[twilit hull]

That's a dragon snake

[royal current]

this is gonna be my ravenclaw playthrough

[trail copper]

ugh ai art

[royal current]

what's wrong with ai art

[trail copper]

it steals artists work

[royal current]

oh here we go again

[twilit hull]

Royalty huh

[trail copper]

and combines it with other artists work

[royal current]

rowena literally wears a diadem

so yeah i'd assume ravenclaw is royalty

[plucky patio]

Even mid journey?

[trail copper]

also people have used ai work for contests and won.

[royal current]

tbh ai art for me has been a blessing, i could never dream of making these stuff for myself

[twilit hull]

Alright that I can agree is not ok

[royal current]

same

[surreal ruin]

No love in Hogwarts

[royal current]

XII DIO RELICTO PRO HOGWARTS LEGACY

[twilit hull]

They did the caps 👀

[trail copper]

imagine. your hardwork is blended into an artpiece and then someone uses it to get paid.

[twilit hull]

When you add payment to it, it's different

[trail copper]

the thing about ai generation is that they pull from all over the internet and just take w/e they want. so, basically. as long as you put your art online it can be stolen.

they're doing this with fanfiction too.

[twilit hull]

I've seen people doing stuff like NFTs and that

[trail copper]

it's just too wild west atm. i feel it would be fine with some regulation.

maybe only take from a pool of art that artist willingly give up.

or even pay to have in it.

[twilit hull]

Well I didn't even know it stole from other artists if it does

[trail copper]

most people don't realize it. but there's nothing anyone can do so shrugs

[shut trellis]

I’m basing my character off of me😎

[bright bison]

Anything new for today?

[shut trellis]

Nope don’t think we’ll get anything til release day now or a couple days before

[trail copper]

i figured we'd get something next week. like the launch trailer.

[trail holly]

You’re a chad Gryffindor?

[trail copper]

but like late next week.

[bright bison]

umm not sure... i think they always show something today and tomorrow, maybe later... its kinda early

maybe like a new professor or anything

[twilit hull]

We JUST have an insane drop yesterday XD

[haughty ibex]

They usually have a small 1PM EST tweet

[bright bison]

facts but they still show something lmao I am not really asking as i want to but they usually post after 1pm

on wednesdays they post earlier

[trail copper]

i'm good til release ngl

[haughty ibex]

It’s not big posts

[neat remnant]

I dont see this on steam...

[haughty ibex]

Just descriptions

[dreamy pendant]

Probably wensday considering they are wizarding wensdays til launch

[twilit hull]

I'm good till release too. I'm not really getting my hype up for small posts

[trail copper]

possibly

[bitter igloo]

no cause it's PS exclusive

[dreamy pendant]

Bet ur sick of saying that

[neat remnant]

The only preorder bonus I see is the dark hippogriff, which tbh isnt enough incentive to me

since its basically a color swap for a mount we get otherwise

[bitter igloo]

im just suprised of how little people in general know about what they have bought, and or are getting

[neat remnant]

how would I know whats offered on console?

[twilit hull]

Someone's about to complain yea?

Also the potion doesn't do anything of note

[dreamy pendant]

Deluxe get 3 day early access

[bitter igloo]

self educating

[trail copper]

i don't care for the potion simply because someone will eventually make an interactive online map. like how botw got.

[earnest forge]

whats google for then lol

[twilit hull]

Then don't pre order?

[neat remnant]

to be honest, the bonuses of this game are particularly weird. I remember a youtuber saying they spent a solid hour figuring those out

[bitter igloo]

that way you would also know of the other things they haven't directly said but is shown from other sites, such as the amazon purchase exclusive

[bitter igloo]

exactly or people will just take a screenshot and upload it to the internet for others to see

[twilit hull]

Odd, it took me like 5 mins. It's on their website under said ore pre ordering

[trail copper]

exactly!

[bitter igloo]

im only a little sad about the timed exclusive quest

[haughty ibex]

The only things that interest me from collectors edition is the kelpie robe and steal case

[hollow yew]

how do you buy the collectors edititon?

[haughty ibex]

I’m just gonna buy those separately tho

[bitter igloo]

totaly same, only just the kelpierobes tho

[haughty ibex]

Because the kelpie robe is a code so you can buy it and put it in ur self

So imma do that

Off eBay

[twilit hull]

From scalpers, sold out

[hollow yew]

oh damn

i bought the deluxe on steam

is there other platforms to preorder or mainly steam

[feral locust]

What about 3 day access and access to a Thestral?

[twilit hull]

That's for deluxe, they are talking about pre ordering standard?

[bitter igloo]

i mean theres also Epic games but i don't really know their policy, which is why ive gone with steam

[royal current]

the thestral isn't a preorder bonus

[neat remnant]

This isnt what my steam page is showing me

[feral locust]

Deluxe version lol

Oh

I understand

[royal current]

yeah that's what i'm saying

[feral locust]

Hmmm

[hollow yew]

i see

[feral locust]

When do you plan on getting it?

[royal current]

I pre-ordered the PC Digital Deluxe version the moment pre-orders opened

[twilit hull]

Anyway, the potion really isn't worth anything if you can use a revealing spell off cooldown

[royal current]

i also preordered the digital deluxe ps5 version a few weeks ago

[neat remnant]

you can see the words "playstation exclusive" in there

[feral locust]

Oh lol I thought you were the other guy

[twilit hull]

That's them being transparent and clear?

What's the problem

[oak ridge]

Will we be able to ride unicorns in Hogwarts legacy?

[bitter igloo]

haven't been said

[misty rivet]

Just saw one hour of gameplay and I’m gonna cry, it’s just so beautiful

[spring summit]

It’s p good

[proven fox]

any idea why the streamers who got invited to playtest the game are still put under heavy NDA?

[bitter igloo]

so they don't say stuff they aren't allowed to

[proven fox]

and pls dont say "spoil the magic"

[proven fox]

yea but like whats the financial reason behind it xD

[bitter igloo]

wdym financial reason...?

[proven fox]

like if the game was bad for example

hiding the fact that its nad

bad

to not press sale numbers down

just some example, not saying it is

[silent snow]

Maybe to keep people curious and play it for there self

[zinc marsh]

i think theyve been pretty open with the game's flaws, like all the previews have talked about some issues but they're not enough to spoil the experience itself

[proven fox]

well anyone who doesnt want to get spoiled doesnt need to watch, or am i wrong?

[bitter igloo]

yes you are kinda wrong

[twilit hull]

Spoil the magic

[silent snow]

Its not about the spoiling

Its always a marketing thing 😉

[proven fox]

thats what i believe

[twilit hull]

It is

[silent snow]

Every game does that

[feral locust]

BRO

WTF

[proven fox]

imo its okay to withhold infos, but as soon as u ask for money everything should be transparent

[feral locust]

i got it at 20

[twilit hull]

Financial as in "the game is 2 weeks out and they want to generate so much hype that people buy in" at the last second

[twilit hull]

It happened with most of the games now. Review copies are sent

[bitter igloo]

no, that would in no sense or form make any sense for the people selling the product

[spring summit]

Uhhhh no?

[ionic panther]

Yeah and I feel like they also werent giving us false hope or expections

[zinc marsh]

This, they've been super transparent about features that won't be in the game, such as patronus

for example contrast it to cyberpunk's marketing, where allthough i love the game, the devs were super scummy in trying to hide all the game's flaws in the lead up to release

[spring summit]

They’ve been super open about stuff tbh

[twilit hull]

It wouldn't make sence for sales to deny something so popular if they have included it, sadly we all know this deep down

[proven fox]

cyberpunk really shocked me because CDPR was holding unconditional trust from its community due to delivering in every witcher game

im glad i didnt buy it

[twilit hull]

I'm glad I bought, it was fun when I played it months out not day one and waited for a ps5

But in levels of witcher quality, I'll agree

[proven fox]

yea the problem is

with witcher they made such a great game in any aspect

and then they broke it

i mean with cyber

[plucky patio]

That isn’t from steam it’s from hogwarts and it’s been shared in the channel

[proven fox]

its a promo flyer🤣

[plucky patio]

It is but steam wouldn’t show that stuff unless you get deluxe but the stuff you do get doesn’t need to be installed

[proven fox]

ya just like the steam page doesnt show the 3 days EA

[plucky patio]

He said his steam wasn’t showing him that stuff and it wouldn’t

But you will still get it

[proven fox]

but i got my receipt in pdf form which is legally binding so ill just relax

[plucky patio]

Yea it’s not a problem

[royal current]

what???

excuse me

[dreamy pendant]

Yep already in games code pretty much just unlocked via deluxe edition

[mint rapids]

I did also. Not right away but I did.

[royal current]

stop posting leaks

[proven fox]

even if u dont get it, its not WBs problem, its steams problem first and foremost unless WB is intentionally not giving out the content which i dont believe

[oak ridge]

Is leaks different from spoilers?

[plucky patio]

Yea it’s on the platform it releases on now

[dreamy pendant]

Yes

[plucky patio]

Yes

[oak ridge]

K

[plucky patio]

Leaks are stuff that aren’t officially released by the company/game

[ionic panther]

Leaks violate nda's and can get you sued

[oak ridge]

Oh ok

[plucky patio]

That too

Spoilers are some people may have seen but others haven’t

That’s why there’s a spoiler channel

[proven fox]

only if u signed an NDA

🤔

[bright bison]

MC inspired AI! I hope my MC can look somehow like this!

[ionic panther]

Yea but WB games also tends to completely remove leaks and remove channels on platforms that post leaks

[proven fox]

if its their plattform or they get the plattform rights holder to delete it its well within their boundaries yes

[dreamy pendant]

Yes or if found to be in possession of leaked information which was not suppose to be released pretty much stolen data

[proven fox]

on the other hand i dont see no reason to provoke a big corp on purpose

[ionic panther]

And posting leaks can be a huge copyright violation aswell

[dreamy pendant]

This

[twilit hull]

the embargo dropped yesterday. They were playing probably days ago

And they were under guildlines

[plucky patio]

They were playing days ago when they had the event at universal Hollywood

[proven fox]

i mean its just less than 2 weeks from now anyways

[brazen path]

what about the actual game review any date on that?

[proven fox]

hm?

[plucky patio]

Nope none

Not yet

Previews were just released yesterday

[brazen path]

The game will release in like 12 days if reviewers did not got the game yet, I'm not so sure if they can catch the embargo since the game is long

[twilit hull]

Do we know that lol it's not like it's impossibly long

Probably could beat it in a few hours

[dreamy pendant]

Will be if u 100% it

[proven fox]

didnt ppl rather worry that the games story is too short?

or dull

than too long

[twilit hull]

We all know reviewers don't really do that lol

And 100% requires a lot of those page collecting so

[dreamy pendant]

Nope but we will lol

[brazen path]

not true, in recent interview with the game director he says with the 100% completion in his las run (with all of his knowledge) he takes 80+ hours

[twilit hull]

I could take a month to 100% something.

Doesn't mean it takes a month normally

[dreamy pendant]

Longer for me im always busy

[twilit hull]

Gameplay will vary

[brazen path]

Giving the last leaks about 35h main story long, and 70h with sides, I would say at least you need 10 days

[twilit hull]

Times will vary

Ok, if its actually the Witcher 3. Then ok you got me lol

[brazen path]

dude the game has 100+ side quests, soo...

[dreamy pendant]

Loved how the new gen was able to carry over

[ionic panther]

I'm waiting until WB to actually confirm game time, Leaks dont have to be accurate

[brazen path]

Leaks has proven that are true in most of them

[twilit hull]

Are they counting each page collecting activity as one side quest or as a whole?

If the first, I don't see as impressive

[simple nymph]

💯 This was also confirmed in an interview they did with the developers

[bitter igloo]

well.. depends on who we're talking about

[twilit hull]

I'll love to eat my words but I'm skeptical

[ionic panther]

Screenrant says 80 hours to 100%

[twilit hull]

I say 300 hours to 100% :p

[brazen path]

TW3 with all of its DLCs don't take that long :_:

[twilit hull]

Speed runners can claim 5 hours :v

[ionic panther]

Nah they will find a way to beat it in an hour and still refund the game on steam

[simple nymph]

"So we are finding it is hard to put a number on, just based on playstyles. But for a first-time playthrough, if you just go through the mainline, you are looking at a 40 hour plus experience. If you decide that you want to do everything you are at over 100 hours, 120 hours probably." thus Lead Designer Kelly Murphy

From the interview. Obviously will vary if you get distracted easily. 👍

[ionic panther]

Yeah story times for open-world games are never accurate, It took me almost 200 hours to finish red dead redemption 2

[twilit hull]

Depends, those 100+ hours are fetch quests like finding pages or gobstones?

[solid sky]

and then on release they reveal a mod facility and content creator api and we all LOSE OUR MINDS! YAAAAAY

[simple nymph]

I was too busy finding the right colour of horse most the time lmao

[coarse moat]

https://youtu.be/0fgT7Lt0HnY?t=293

[ionic panther]

same lol

[coarse moat]

quidditch confirmed as dlc or next game

[coarse moat]

dialogue

[low gull]

🤣

[plucky patio]

Nope

[coarse moat]

😐

[solid sky]

VR mode for potions class

[twilit hull]

I'm still skeptical but I'll gladly take an L if I'm wrong

[coarse moat]

but the npc says 'we are bound to have quidditch next year'

[plucky patio]

Npc not us

[coarse moat]

bruh

[plucky patio]

This game happens within a year

[coarse moat]

why would you put such a dialogue then

[bitter igloo]

that's just speculations not at all confirmed

[plucky patio]

To mess with us

[simple nymph]

Could be a fun reference but just speculating

[wise yoke]

That's why I tend to calculate from 'How long to beat". They give different times depending on play style. Like "Base story, Base + Side Quests, or Completionist"

[swift flicker]

well you could also be not as much free time and like me take many many months to complete 🙂

[coarse moat]

i think this hints that if they do make the next game with the same storyline it will have it.

[plucky patio]

Maybe

[simple nymph]

I would prefer expandable DLC over a brand new game

[coarse moat]

bro im just gonna be standing there listening to every single dialogue

[bitter igloo]

gonna be a lot of filler lmao

[twilit hull]

You'd prefer not to pay another $60 :v

[coarse moat]

the green house/herbology area is dope

last time i saw this much attention to background music was Detroit become human

[royal current]

11 days, 4 hours and 44 minutes left

[plucky patio]

I loved that game

[simple nymph]

No I just think the game could be expanded on by introducing (paid) DLC Money is unrelated here

[twilit hull]

Yea

[coarse moat]

lets just say the unbreakable objects just have a "protective" spell casted by black

i wonder if you can break the glass windows

https://youtu.be/0fgT7Lt0HnY?t=483

[simple nymph]

From what I have seen of the preview materials you cannot go on a destructive rampage

[coarse moat]

like you can see through slightly

maybe you can

[noble kindle]

Need a modder to allow beards and can we get a pet snake?

[slim badge]

duration of the game who knows?

[coarse moat]

break the glass windows and destroy the ecosystem lol

[simple nymph]

A guy tried setting bushes on fire and hitting windows and it didn't do anything

[pallid flicker]

I'm just gonna Repairo everything

[coarse moat]

kinda makes sense tho greenhouses are supposed to be isolated

[pallid flicker]

Anti-fire spells everywhere

[coarse moat]

so you would put the 'protective' spell on windows/walls and obvious plants would be protected

[pallid flicker]

Ha

[simple nymph]

Protective spells against the pyromaniacs hahah

[pallid flicker]

Give me back my brain cell Killswitch

[jaunty latch]

me if so

[coarse moat]

https://youtu.be/F3L02Ke9h3E?t=32

oops burned it

[coarse moat]

What if your old magic burst does this and that is what they are talking about here https://youtu.be/NthGfn_ddRQ?t=28

someone hack into steam server and change the launch date

[finite orchid]

so...can we swim underwater or not?

[jaunty latch]

no 😦

[coarse moat]

i dont think so

[feral locust]

no diving - for now

[coarse moat]

it would have been fun fighting sirens lol

[finite orchid]

are you 100% sure?

[coarse moat]

maybe dlc

[feral locust]

not 100%, no

[finite orchid]

gathering herbs

[coarse moat]

yes

[finite orchid]

waving to slytherins

[coarse moat]

[simple nymph]

Getting eaten by the squid 😮

[finite orchid]

that too

[feral locust]

reviewer said he tried and wasnt working
theoretically they might have had it just disabled
but almost certain

[coarse moat]

riding a dragon

[twilit hull]

I'll be very surprised

[bitter igloo]

dragons might be too big for us to ride

[pallid flicker]

You can swim, but not dive sadly. At least that's what it seems

[coarse moat]

comeon

im fat enough

[noble kindle]

Leviosa a dragon ?

[bitter igloo]

kinda hope they've made diving a thing in the final build

[finite orchid]

it's surprising that they made a game this huge ..to explore everything around you but not develop underwater world as well

[coarse moat]

they can withstand killing spells

sooo

idk if Leviosa would do anything

[noble kindle]

I will try, I may fail but I’m willing

[ivory verge]

[coarse moat]

might get cooked in the process but science needs you to be daring

[twilit hull]

Yes but would we get AVed by others?

[coarse moat]

i dont think other students would

[plucky patio]

When was this?

[blissful sinew]

Evil Ravenclaw student? 👀

[coarse moat]

unless there is a descendent of Salazar somewhere among us

[shut trellis]

Bit like rdr2?

[coarse moat]

more like witcher 3

[bitter igloo]

no

[ivory verge]

was looking up the source of the gametime quote posted a bit ago and saw this https://apptrigger.com/2023/01/26/hogwarts-legacys-morality-system/

[shut trellis]

Wait nvm

[ivory verge]

there's also bits of it on Gamerant

[shut trellis]

I read it wrong

[plucky patio]

Thank you ☺️💙

[shut trellis]

Thought it said it would have a mortality system

[coarse moat]

dialogue choices change the story

[noble kindle]

Yea let me just skin this badger in front of a Hufflepuff

[ivory verge]

woah

[coarse moat]

[noble kindle]

Red dead 2 no?

[plucky patio]

🥲

[twilit hull]

More like poachers

[blissful sinew]

👀

[coarse moat]

yes

i expect high level enemies to do it

[twilit hull]

I'd hope

[coarse moat]

which is why we have red indicator

[twilit hull]

Because it's clear they can use them

[coarse moat]

you must dodge, cannot block

[bright bison]

cool

[coarse moat]

https://youtu.be/0fgT7Lt0HnY?t=645

[fresh gust]

I wish in the gameplay videos they would visit the house dormitories

[coarse moat]

maybe next wednesday

[twilit hull]

Probably against the guildlines that were set

[simple nymph]

I do not think they will try to fully kill you based on Poppy's dialogue from the previews that were released; its within the first minute of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyo4rY0ya-U

[plucky patio]

Maybe maybe not

[fresh gust]

Next Wednesday it's basically here

[fresh gust]

True true ://

Steam in Austria

[coral stirrup]

its been the top for like 2 months

[coarse moat]

breaks rdr2 record

[jaunty latch]

bruh thats crazy that what we've seen so far is only the tip of the ice burg

[fresh gust]

Gunna be the best game of 2023, it's got potential to be the best game for the next 5 years too

[twilit hull]

Yea but if we are using AV on them, I would assume they'd drop any morals and drop kick us lol

[bright bison]

dope https://youtu.be/Uh64tbEyQF4

[coarse moat]

can you make your character fat?

[twilit hull]

I don't think so?

[plucky patio]

It does

[coarse moat]

https://tenor.com/view/petunia-evans-dursley-floating-harry-potter-gif-13909009

[twilit hull]

Key word "potential"

[ivory verge]

The sliders that they showed in the preview gameplay didn't have any body type sliders

[fresh gust]

They shall fulfil that potential I reckon, due to how big the universe of Harry Potter is. There's a lot of room for Quidditch... Diagon Alley etc...

[bright bison]

omg I think i found the face i want for my MC!!! maybe a little lighter skin but perfect

[twilit hull]

I highly doubt Quidditch the way we want lol it'll be Quidditch on rails or npcs playing Quidditch

[ivory verge]

from the character creation:

Body Preset
Facewear: Face Shape, Skin Colour, Glasses
Hairstyles: Hair Colour, Hairstyle
Complexion: Freckles and Moles, Complexion, Scars and Markings
Eyebrows: Eye Colour, Eyebrow Colour, Eyebrow Shape
Finalise:
Voice (Tone, Pitch)
Difficulty: Story, Easy, Normal, Hard
Name Your Character: First Name, Last Name
Dormitory: Witch, Wizard

[coarse moat]

My after 1 week of playing:

Diary entry 200:
Its been 1 year, I have been lost trying to find the class room. There seems to be no way out and peeves keeps talking about toilets.

[jaunty latch]

Depulso is in game

that's pretty rad

[fresh gust]

I was shocked with how much liveliness is in the game

[twilit hull]

Some of the gameplay looked quite and empty.

It's not all lively

[coarse moat]

depends of situation, time and location

you wont find alot of ppl during night time

[twilit hull]

Not all daytime locations are lively

[tough pollen]

true

but seems realistic

[coarse moat]

well if its a walkway it makes sense to not have many ppl

[twilit hull]

For a school ... it's... lively enough

[coarse moat]

can you post a link

[fresh gust]

I mean specifically inside the school

[twilit hull]

I did too

[fresh gust]

There are plenty of students + NPC conversations and interactions

[coarse moat]

My prof of dark arts after i accidently kill a student

[twilit hull]

Plenty yes, not in all parts

Which is realistic, I'll give you that

[coarse moat]

oops wrong button

[fresh gust]

It's not realistic have it in every section of the building where it is more quiet then other areas

[twilit hull]

Mhmm

[zinc kindle]

What will be the level cap in-game?

[twilit hull]

.

[coarse moat]

40 i think

not sure

[twilit hull]

I heard 40

[zinc kindle]

40?

[twilit hull]

40

[zinc kindle]

Damn that's low 😅

[jaunty latch]

this is truly going to be the game of all time

[outer bolt]

lvl 40 with 50 talent points only able to fill 40 of them i think

[fresh gust]

Might be hard to level up tho so...

[twilit hull]

Were you expecting 120 XD

[jaunty latch]

just grind that dark arts arena

[zinc kindle]

100 tbh

[coarse moat]

depending on how much xp it takes to level up

[fresh gust]

True

[coarse moat]

some games dont have a constant bar for each level

[twilit hull]

Probably no xp in the arena

[coarse moat]

the amount needed increases by levels

[jaunty latch]

Avada Kedavra could not be more badass in this game tbh

[outer bolt]

could be an xp grind from 30-40

[twilit hull]

Sounds fun 🤔

[coarse moat]

and maybe difficulty levels affect how much xp you get

[zinc kindle]

I mean it doesn't rlly matter how much it takes to lvl up but I just want to max out all the talent points yk

[outer bolt]

I hope mobs scale with your lvl for increased playthough respawns

[twilit hull]

There's not a lot of talent points as I am aware

[feral mortar]

I wonder if they gonna add the diving option

[bright bison]

Not sure which face I will start between those two for my MC

[outer bolt]

i counted 50 talent point slots in the point spender so u might not be able to do that at a lvl cap of 40

[coral stirrup]

what if to unlock it, its the same as unlocking crucio. gotta cast it on sebastion

[jaunty latch]

from the playthroughs of the dark arts arena it seems that you gain xp towards something as each round progresses

[zinc kindle]

That's a pitty cause you can do a lot with them

[zinc kindle]

Would you be able to achieve 2 complete talents with that amount?

[outer bolt]

yeh the talent trees only go up to 10/15 ish slots

[coral stirrup]

Level 40 might jsut be the achievment Gate, not the maxlevel

we won't know until the 7th tho

[zinc kindle]

There are 4 talents, isn't it?

[outer bolt]

| | in this picture it says the lvl is 12 but theres 15 points spent so maybe we start with a few to get us started alrdy unlocked at 0 or we could gain 2 - 3 extra talent points per 10 lvls etc

[zinc kindle]

5

damn

LMFAO

[sharp dune]

I thought that read something else

[vivid marten]

lmao, that's awesome

[gentle geode]

have they sayed anything about adding quidditch as dlc?

[vivid marten]

i don't think so, no

[gentle geode]

cuz they made the arena

[sharp dune]

No, but given that there’s soo much there. The more fans ask, they may listen

[royal current]

isn't that a leak

[ivory verge]

Please don't post leaks here

[feral locust]

its not

its on epic

[ivory verge]

And yes it is a leak because Epic released it early and then hid it again because they weren't supposed to go out

[feral locust]

oh...

[zinc kindle]

They didn't hide it

it's still there

[outer bolt]

and all epic got was a slap on the wrist shame

[ivory verge]

There's ways to find it but they hid it from its initial public spot within the same day it went out

[royal current]

it is there

[feral locust]

i mean its quite litterly on the launcher

[royal current]

it's no longer a leak

[ivory verge]

ok then something changed today and I wasn't aware, my apologies

[feral locust]

also they have secret achievements

[zinc kindle]

Lmfao what did you want them to receive as punishment?

[ivory verge]

I'm gonna ask about it though

[coarse moat]

can i get an override to play early?

[sharp dune]

Looks like a epic still has it public

[bright bison]

It's me or face features kinda change when you change skin color?

[feral locust]

so the big things are hidden anyway

[royal current]

go ahead, if it's still not okay feel free to delete my screenshot <3

[outer bolt]

banned from being a vendor as Steam is the only true online vendor to do things correctly and professionally

[feral locust]

this

[ivory verge]

my apologies guys

[mint rapids]

I agree

[feral locust]

we good to talk about it?

[zinc kindle]

I bought it on epic....

[ivory verge]

I haven't asked yet haha doing so right now

[feral locust]

kk

take your time

[ivory verge]

just apologizing because I didn't realize the page changed today

[royal current]

it's fine

[feral locust]

its okay 😄 ya theres hidden achievements to so i think its final at this point but double check

[simple nymph]

EpicGames renaming to EpicLeaks

[zinc kindle]

Am I the only one who's gonna avada kedavra every enemy's? 😁

[zinc kindle]

Let's mail them for some more leaks lmfao

[outer bolt]

am i the only one seeing like 8 - 12% of players alrdy unlocked these achievemnts O.o

[ivory verge]

Yeah before every single one was visible, with there being hidden ones this seems intentional but I'm getting a definitive yes or no on it now

[coarse moat]

mail them to leak the game itself so we can play earlier

[simple nymph]

Reviewers possibly? 😮

[feral locust]

kk take your time 😄

[royal current]

switch the epic with wiki

[zinc kindle]

Some youtubers where able to play a demo

[royal current]

[ivory verge]

Epic display bug maybe?

[ivory verge]

That was on PS5 I heard, and at WB HQ

[outer bolt]

ya but the demo was only 2 hours long and on preset toons with spells alrdy unlocked

[bright bison]

Same model face and shape with different skin tones... it's me or they look kinda different beyond the skin color, like facial feature changed a bit? If yes, then thats a really good detail wow

[zinc kindle]

Feel free to invite me at WB HQ 😁

[outer bolt]

most likely a bug then

[mental flax]

Looks the exact same to me, the skin tone is just affecting how deep the shading contrasts

[mint rapids]

It’s epic. Of course it’s a bug

[lean oar]

They cannot be serious about this Hufflepuff voice actor and his lines

[sharp dune]

Do you guys thing Hagrit’s hut will be in the game?

[simple nymph]

Looks the same to me

[bitter igloo]

looks exactly the same except for skin color

[simple nymph]

Ooo not again 😦

[keen bough]

They probably made it so high pitched so it’s more comical.

[coarse moat]

its quite old so idk

[royal current]

11 days, 4 hours and 2 minutes left

[ivory verge]

okay so for now it's fine to talk about the achievements, just be respectful and don't bring it outside this channel and if it's any of the hidden achievements you might spoiler tag it since they're relatively major spoilers

[bright bison]

oh i thought they looked kinda different

[zinc kindle]

Prob not because hagrit wasn't born yet

[ivory verge]

I'm just a volunteer mod, I don't even get to go to HQ

[lean oar]

Comical? It sounds stupid lmao

[feral locust]

smh what are they paying you for then /j

[robust fjord]

New achievements 👀

[keen bough]

Cuz it is stupid - peeves is mean and annoying and stopping a kid from class

[sharp dune]

Yeah. Figured. Was not sure if there is a grounds keeper before Hagrid

[royal current]

all the work without the perks 😭

[coarse moat]

🤓 'Not again!!!'

[simple nymph]

Time to riot for a raise

[lean oar]

That makes no sense

[zinc kindle]

You should get invited, you are amazing ❤️

[noble kindle]

Work smarter not harder

[wispy sun]

Peak capitalism 🤣

[keen bough]

How? In the books, peeves caused trouble 24/7

[lean oar]

Not that. I’m not talking about Peeves. I’m talking about the student

[ivory verge]

🥺 thank you!! that's very sweet

[keen bough]

We appreciate you @ivory verge ❤️

[ivory verge]

spoiler alert you guys are fantastic

[jaunty latch]

low budget voice actors be like

[feral locust]

noooo the whole game is spoiled now /j

[keen bough]

Ah, well. You’ll probably only see that student once - out of sight, out of mind 🤷🏾‍♀️

[simple nymph]

[lean oar]

Lmao

[coarse moat]

You killed moaning myrtle didnt you

[ivory verge]

NO

[coarse moat]

Riddle said you did

[feral locust]

you killed my pet mooncalf didnt u

[coarse moat]

so you did

[ivory verge]

[ivory verge]

omg I could never, animals are too precious

[lean oar]

I don’t care about seeing them, but hearing them, that’s another story. The voice acting for it sounds stupid af lol

It sounds like satire where someone clipped the video and put their own voice lines over it

[coarse moat]

[keen bough]

You can play on mute lol. There are subtitles

[lean oar]

That’s the dumbest thing I’ve heard today, man lol

[jaunty latch]

confirmed: dark arts arena helps you level up

[keen bough]

I don’t know what to tell you. If the voice acting bothers you THAT much, you don’t have to get the game.

[formal viper]

Clearly you don't work in I.T.

[fossil patio]

grinding time

[rose ether]

But isn't this spoiler general?

[zinc kindle]

Gonna grind the arena

[rose ether]

What counts and doesn't count as leak?

[lean oar]

Oh my god

[lean oar]

What does that have to do with anything at all?

[mint rapids]

Things not confirmed are leaks

[keen bough]

Very cool

[simple nymph]

If its not been released by the official source itll be a leak

[formal viper]

If you worked in I.T., You'd have heard far dumber things today.

[rose ether]

Oh okey

[sharp dune]

If it was not part of the early access vids posted yesterday, it’s leak.

[zinc kindle]

Guess I am a leak 🫣

[lean oar]

Ah, well that I can understand lol

[rose ether]

Pretty sure you were released at one point

[keen bough]

On your first playthrough, will you go down a “good” or “dark” path? Or somewhere in between?

[bright bison]

who is even gonna use that hairstyle? It looks like a granny hairstyle

[zinc kindle]

Yea but not by an official source 😂

[lean oar]

Nothing specific, I will just make the choices and do the things that I deem right

[keen bough]

Professor McGonagall 2.0

[keen bough]

Nice

[sharp dune]

Good path for Griffindor. Bad for Slytgerin. Good for hufflepuff and bad for RavenClaw

[lean oar]

And some of those could be dark, and some could be good

[keen bough]

Yeah, I’m just gonna make choices that feel like me.

[bright bison]

why that student talks like Mickey Mouse

[keen bough]

Cuz he’s Mickey Mouse re incarnated as a wizard

[lean oar]

I don't know man lmao, it sounds so stupid

[bright bison]

"oh not aaaaagain"

[keen bough]

Bro has been traumatized too many times 💀

[clear sphinx]

Is that clip real? Does it actually sound like that?

[keen bough]

Yeah. Poor dude took in too much helium that morning

[lean oar]

''Aauh 😱 Oh not again! 😰 ''

[bright bison]

kinda break the immersion tbh 7/10 now... lets see if keeps removing points

[lean oar]

Yes, it's very much real

[upbeat plank]

I think the one thing tempting me from the collectors edition rn is the wand.
I don't have a wand and I think it'd be really cool merch.
Then again, I might be going to universal in April but I can only imagine how overpriced they'll be there, plus with the other HP stuff on top of that

[coral stirrup]

guys are forgetting that student is probably 11 years old. lul

[keen bough]

He’s the only student I’ve seen with such a high voice. The other students are ok

[bright bison]

i was trying to act like those kids from reddit and youtube lol

[keen bough]

“The kid’s voice is too high. 7/10.” - IGN

[clear sphinx]

It's that it sounds bad. Age isn't relevant. 'This character is 11 therefore the terrible voicing is okay'

[coral stirrup]

IGN: i sneezed on my computer and it broke, H ogwarts legacy 1/10

[upbeat plank]

Have you never heard what an 11 year old sounds like???

[keen bough]

NAURR 😂

[coral stirrup]

I sounded like that as a kid lul, >:I

how dare

[bright bison]

literally

[keen bough]

Someone in the great hall must have put helium in bro’s pumpkin juice that morning

[bright bison]

he look like he is 15

[coral stirrup]

Remember the "its just a game" guy... he sounds like that at 33

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzpndHtdl9A

[clear sphinx]

😬

[keen bough]

LOLL

[bright bison]

I actually love that the game take risks like this lmao

[upbeat plank]

Also may I remind people that some guys just are unfortunate enough to have high pitched voices

[bright bison]

its like trolling

[keen bough]

We’re bullying a bunch of pixels over his voice - how sad 😭💀

[rose ether]

IGN actually gave it a very good review.

[old bobcat]

Which is surprising to me honestly

[keen bough]

Not really. It said a million pros about the game, but then said it’s skeptical…without mentioning any cons. Only mentioned the JKR controversy

[bright bison]

but we cant forget JK Rowling who made transphobic comments blah blah blah

[rose ether]

And also, IGN has been given fairly good reviews to games lately, for good I meant fair and objective, the internet just loves to collectively hate something

[zinc kindle]

It's okay alex, we accept you like you are ❤️

[rose ether]

They're right though. And they just commented on the issue

[bright bison]

they shouldnt mention that tbh, you gave a good review? great but that ending...

[bright bison]

unnecessary tbh

[keen bough]

Yes, the JKR controversy has nothing to do with how good or bad the game itself is. That’s what the review should be about

[rose ether]

Why not? That you guys are afraid of talking about it doesn't makes it any less real

[bright bison]

I dont see how is relevant to a review of a video game

We dont care about that woman

[plucky patio]

Not afraid of it but it’s been years

Get over it

[rose ether]

They just commented on the issue, they didn't valued the game better or worse for it

[keen bough]

They can talk about it, but it shouldn’t change the way you rate a game or make you skeptical about how good a game is.

[plucky patio]

She didn’t make the game leave the devs alone

[rose ether]

Nope, it's still on going

[upbeat plank]

Notice how I said some guys and not me

[keen bough]

He did. He said he is skeptical about the game, yet he didn’t mention any cons. Just the controversy

[rose ether]

Literally they NEVER judged the game for it man

[plucky patio]

Her comments was before the game was announced

Yes they have

[bright bison]

to me was kinda unprofessional and very sensationalist

[upbeat plank]

Tell that to the crowd who's gonna review bomb the game on steam bc of it

[plucky patio]

People were upset cause there weren’t any trans devs

And people were acting the devs

[rose ether]

Well I guess you read one line and decided to make your opinion on it

[zinc kindle]

Some people like to talk in third person about themselves 🙂

[keen bough]

I know - people will let the JKR controversy affect how they rate the game, which is unfortunate. But I guess that’s what happens.

[plucky patio]

It’s getting frustrating

[clear sphinx]

They're not going to make up 5% of the total reviews.

[plucky patio]

Separate the art from the artist and leave it at that

[rose ether]

10 dudes that think they're better in Twitter for defending Trans people that didn't asked for it are not EVERYONE, definitely not a real issue

[keen bough]

Anyway, what mount are you hyped for?
Graphorn 💛
Hippogriff 💚
Broom ❤️
Thestral 💙
Walking 💀

[rose ether]

And also that's a big strawman

[upbeat plank]

All of the above

[coral stirrup]

Wheres the thestral you goon?

[keen bough]

Forgot lol I’ll add

[plucky patio]

It is a real issue if it’s still being brought after she said it

[coral stirrup]

XD

[keen bough]

I fixed it

[simple nymph]

doesnt that mean they purchased the game?

[clear sphinx]

I personally have no issue with people not doing that. Choosing not to participate is fine by me, but telling others that they're supposed to is extremely annoying and will just have the opposite effect.

[bright bison]

aw that kinda sucks for the devs... idk im sure if a talented trans person was to get a job there, they would hire them, the seem very nice people and open minded

[royal current]

Thestrals and Onyx Hippogriff

[coral stirrup]

\you can refund right after though

[plucky patio]

Exactly

[coral stirrup]

but it risks getting your account Blocked from socials on steam

[simple nymph]

oh I did not know about that

[plucky patio]

They brought on the people they thought would make a good game

[keen bough]

Yes, It’s ok to be offended by JKR, and not play the game. You shouldn’t call people monsters for wanting to play the game tho. And you shouldn’t get the game because you want to upset trans people. Simple.

[royal current]

can we please not talk about this drama in here

[plucky patio]

Thank you

[coral stirrup]

but it will also be review bombed by the other side too.

so it might just end up even

[royal current]

i'm so fed up by the pandering of twitter SJWs while they type on phones made in sweatshops

let's close the topic please

[plucky patio]

And don’t tell people to not to buy the game

[keen bough]

Cool pfp

[royal current]

thanks love

[clear sphinx]

There are works where I can't separate the art from the artist, so I just avoid it. I don't tell people what to do or think about it.

[storm slate]

what on earth is going on here

[rose ether]

Look I don't care about the Twitter crowd, nor should the devs. IGN said that it could hamper the view on the game which it happened and nothing else

[plucky patio]

The only reason it’ll be review bombed is because jkr and because of her views

[rose ether]

And you're a mod here? Lmao

[keen bough]

JK Rowling Vs Twitter stuff

[coral stirrup]

the team sidestepped the IGN idiocy like pros

[plucky patio]

They shouldn’t have mentioned it

[bright bison]

My friend from when i first came to America is a transgender and she is 16 and support the game, she is actually very exited because i got her into. She knows all the controversy but she also loves Harry Potter even more than me.

[rose ether]

Who's review bombing it?

[royal current]

the sales beg to differ lmao, it's been a best seller for weeks and is not going down

[storm slate]

The Battle of the Offensive

[royal current]

i also have a trans friend who has the deluxe edition preordered

[plucky patio]

He’s a ghost not a mod

[rose ether]

You guys are attacking a big strawman

[bright bison]

great!!!

[keen bough]

Yes, those people are a loud minority. No matter how much they boycott, it’s hard to take down the huge Harry Potter fandom lol

[coral stirrup]

Listen, Ign could'nt game their way out of Mario World 1-1

we should'nt trust anything they say

[plucky patio]

I said the reason why it would be

Reviews haven’t come out yet

[keen bough]

Lol they always give 7/10 to incredible games. I usually don’t trust them

[royal current]

remember when they messed with the steam tags?

[rose ether]

...

[outer furnace]

idiocy

[royal current]

lmao

[coral stirrup]

yeah that was funny, made the game sound way better than it is xD

[royal current]

yeah

[plucky patio]

They could have the preview without mentioning her it isn’t that hard

[bright bison]

I dont trust IGN, its very rare that they are unbiased lmao

[outer furnace]

have people got nothing better to do

[keen bough]

“Hogwarts Legacy will make you feel the exaggerated swagger of a magical teen.” - IGN 💯

[coral stirrup]

the "boycotters" arn't even gamers, they never were. they don't affect sales they just throw dumb tantrums

[bright bison]

But they were kinda right with Forespoken being trash (sorry dont attack me t.t)

[lean oar]

Imagine a world where we play the games we enjoy because we enjoy them, and not because of what people have said and haven't said

[outer furnace]

feels true

[plucky patio]

I don’t care if people agree with her or don’t a great game was made based on her books that she did that birthed a whole community

[royal current]

also, i feel like the twitter crowd makes stuff up at this point, i've seen accusations of 'blood libel' being in the game, those people are sheep, they don't even know what they are talking about

[rose ether]

Let's leave it at: Twitter opinion don't matter and it won't hurt the game in anyway, everyone that wants to play it will do, and it's fairly inclusive. You guys give Twitter mobs too much attention

[coral stirrup]

Like, I dislike JK A LOT, but like... she has 2 BILLION dollars. so who cares?

[plucky patio]

It’s not just on twitter though

[keen bough]

I don’t blame you. The main character is black, yet she is portrayed in a stereotypical way. Just cuz the combat is flashy doesn’t mean it’s good. And some of the dialogue is occasionally cringe. The parkour seems fun tho 👍🏾

[storm slate]

Everyone entitled to their own opinion about if you should play it or not which I respect personally I purchase the books since they are all made just by Rowling but movies and games are a lot different since I believe the actors, directors and developers did more for it then Rowling but what ever your opinion is I respect it.

[zinc kindle]

I-

[upbeat plank]

You'd think Twitter ppl would realize that after HL became #1 on steam but nope

[rose ether]

And you guys didn't paid attention to IGN review at all, you got 5riggered at the mention of rowling

[outer furnace]

women is fine

however pandering to the woke people isnt

[bright bison]

Aw sadly it's a reality, was very awful. She was afraid to go to jail and didnt want to be in trouble or something like that, I stopped watching yikes

[keen bough]

Huh?

[plucky patio]

But it isn’t just on Twitter I’ve seen it on Insta too

[outer furnace]

look at lara croft

[coral stirrup]

use a different term, "Woke" doesn't even mean anything anymore

[clear sphinx]

Can we go back to saying SJW? It's more accurate.

[coral stirrup]

like what even is "Woke"

[keen bough]

Lol yeah, black main character? Yay!
Getting arrested, on trial, and called derogatory names in the first 30 minutes? Booo! 💀😭

[coral stirrup]

such a dumb term

[royal current]

guys can y'all please stop talking about it

[rose ether]

They better pander to what? White dudes?

[bright bison]

And I saw a lot of gameplays of her being angry at literally everything and cursing all the time, i dont see that as a good representation because i know black people are way more than that, especially for a mainstream platform like that game, its kinda sad tbh as an outsider, i dont like it

[outer furnace]

pretty sad state of the games industry

[clear sphinx]

I don't know. She was as unlikable as I'd expect a New Yorker to be.

[sharp dune]

For hogsmeed, you guys thing we’ll be able to sit and have a butter beer?

[keen bough]

Almost the whole team is white, I believe. For a game with a black lead, you need more black representation in the staff

[royal current]

lol i saw one ginger guy on twitter who looks like he's never left daddy's basement for a shower

[keen bough]

Probably! There is the three broomsticks

[coral stirrup]

thankfully this game takes place in Scotland 1800's, meaning you're fine because black history is actually just american history

[sharp dune]

Let’s goo.

[plucky patio]

Not pandering to the people who don’t believe in lgbqt+ either they are part of the problem too

[sharp dune]

I hope we’re able to make friends in the game and hang out with them

[clear sphinx]

Huh, okay?

[bright bison]

THIS!!! Especially if you are trying to create a black character, kinda off

[keen bough]

I’m happy Natsai exists in HL - she’s representing us Africans in a school of British snobs 😂

[plucky patio]

It’s a mess honestly

[zinc kindle]

Who's gonna use the "unforgivable" curses?

[bright bison]

I love Natsai

[royal current]

he was ranting about how buying hogwarts legacy means you're an evil person and stuff

[bright bison]

She fights for justice

[royal current]

was super obnoxious

[plucky patio]

I will against the poachers

[keen bough]

“Ah, so you are the new student.”❤️😂

[outer furnace]

buying games is for fun

[coral stirrup]

I am :>, but i also want to know the lore reason why we arn't being traced & immune to askaban

[plucky patio]

I despise people who say that

[twilit hull]

It's content that has no morality to it, yes I am

[royal current]

yeah, my friend is trans and he doesn't care, he literally has the deluxe edition on preorder

[plucky patio]

Like it’s just a game you won’t die if someone buys it

[coral stirrup]

Im trans, and same

[keen bough]

It’s funny because the Ancient Magic attacks are more brutal than the unforgivable curses lol 💀😂

[dreamy pendant]

How u go frome woke ppl to white male racist much

[zinc kindle]

So true lmao

[keen bough]

Hope you enjoy hogwarts legacy! ❤️

[bright bison]

aw

[coral stirrup]

its been my WeT dream since i was young. ain't no SJW nonsense going to stop me from playing anygame

[keen bough]

Our MC literally broke a goblin into a million pieces 😭💀

[royal current]

wet 💀
yeah it's been my dream for ages

[sharp dune]

Can it be Feb 7th. I have soo many more questions I am to curious if they exist. Lol

[coral stirrup]

Expesh since all of the SJW's Play overwatch and WoW mostly, so their also just hypocrits

[outer furnace]

is it me or some games are terrible

[twilit hull]

Is killing out right more evil then torture :👀
