Hello everyone

[finite lion]

Hello

[autumn nexus]

does anyone know how much Hogwarts legacy will cost?

[alpine edge]

$70 on next gen consoles, 60 on things like ps4 and Xbox. Probably…

[silk tapir]

i miss the days of 49.99$ release day prices

[spark mica]

thanks to inflation, the money we spend now on games is less than what we used to spend when $49,99 prices were the norm

[silk tapir]

interesting

[spark mica]

explain

[silver scarab]

It's supply and demand, more supply (of money in general) makes it lose its worth. A 1/100 trading card is worth more than a 50/100 one, for example

[finite lion]

Ok

[humble sequoia]

Bonsoir everybody!

[neat wave]

Does anyone here have ps5 and could answer couple of questions?

[lunar warren]

I can't wait for the game, that's all i want to say 🙂

[spark mica]

@alpine edge ?

[storm swan]

Algún español?

[silk tapir]

[spiral mica]

Goodnight 😁

[magic remnant]

I wish they had more of regulus black and The black family as a whole

[humble sequoia]

I'm so confused

[vale dove]

what

[humble sequoia]

When was the pokemon theme song in Harry potter

I'm generally confused I fell asleep on a discord call watching the first movie and woke up to the pokemon theme song

When did that come to Harry Potter?

[vale dove]

is it?

[humble sequoia]

Or was my friends messing with me I'm so confused

[late edge]

[humble sequoia]

I woke up to that I'm so confused

[solid crown]

i was wondering if i could just skip the first two books and then proceed to the third part? i have watched the movies and i heard that the first two books are identical to the movies, wasn't it? and i got serious boredom as i read the first part because i can barely understand what hagrid is saying.

plus like i already know what's gonna happen under that house hagrids knocked on

[stuck pumice]

Hermione turns into a furry in the first book 👍

[still crystal]

I would suggest reading them because they are really good and there are some parts that aren’t in the movie but you don’t need to read them

[solid crown]

the first 2 parts, right?

[late edge]

If you're bored of the first part maybe skip reading the books all together lmao

[humble sequoia]

hype or something 🎉

[twin halo]

Facts

[normal stone]

Maybe... something? 😛

[vale dove]

what is the something

[normal stone]

I dunno.

[marble star]

I wrote for or

[twin halo]

My bed is in a car tonight

[normal stone]

S'it comfy?

[twin halo]

Nope

I'm too tall for this

[normal stone]

I feel that.

[humble sequoia]

is the game not coming out anymore?

[twin halo]

It's proper desperate

[normal stone]

It still is but only for Holiday 2022, which is likely this November – December.

[vale dove]

[spark mica]

the preliminary ESRB rating is 16, not confirmed yet. the USK rating is about 2x more unknown than that

[autumn nexus]

ok thx

[humble sequoia]

[humble sequoia]

I just got an email saying i have an invite to buy a ps5

I signed up for it but i cant afford to buy a ps5 rn 😢

[finite lion]

Oh

[humble sequoia]

[finite lion]

It's sad that you have mail and you can't afford it

[humble sequoia]

Ah ok

Nooo 😥

Cheers y'all

[bold fern]

Hello everyone

Just a short question, did someone know when WE can order for computer ? :(

[restive marsh]

We don't really know much about preorders or release dates. We know the game will drop most likely in Nov/Dec, but there is wiggle room. After we get a confirmed date, then I suppose we'll be able to preorder. We're all just kinda sat here waiting for HL and trying not to think about how much we want this game.

[bold fern]

Yup, but Yesterday they are spking about preorders for Switch / PS4 / ps5 / Xbox one ans series but not for computer 😢

[restive marsh]

Hmm. It might be so they can get more game providers to distribute, since we know about getting it on Steam and Epic, but I'm not sure how many others will sell it. I'm sure we'll find out in due time, we just gotta suffer and wait

[bold fern]

It will not be on Steam or Epic for sure.
It'll be on the Warner Platforms for sure

[dire osprey]

I saw on twitter HL details on Steam are being updated

[bold fern]

Nonl way t_t

[dire osprey]

Does that mean anything

I saw a tweet saying transcription stages. Adding languages stage mean it's being finalized. Not sure if a credible source

[restive marsh]

Could you please show us the tweet, so we can case it ourselves? I just want to read it through too

[dire osprey]

https://twitter.com/HogwartLegacyBR/status/1550120914418733060?t=Xbhwktvu8o0HPv8HaVbaxw&s=19

[spark mica]

Could be that the PC is only getting a digital release... hopefully not but yeah

[restive marsh]

It wouldn't surprise me, since a non-digital copies for a PC kinda decreased in popularity with the release of more modern tech. I don't think my PC can run a game without it being a digital copy. Mildly annoying, but whatever

[mossy inlet]

You can already wishlist it on steam, it is coming on both too

[humble sequoia]

1:08pm, brazil

[humble sequoia]

not for computer ????

are you kidding me?

[potent heart]

[reef gazelle]

[vivid forum]

They are posting a lot these days. I keep on getting tons of emails saying Hogwarts Legacy posted something. But they rarely post anything new. You just gotta watch out. But to answer your question idk.

[finite lion]

Wish you all best

[humble sequoia]

[reef gazelle]

Thanks, me too you

[finite lion]

What do you want to talk about

Hi Newt

[limpid jetty]

Lovely to meet y’all

Hi Harry

[humble sequoia]

Same

😁

[reef gazelle]

what is Heya?

[limpid jetty]

Okay one question, what are your most fav Harry Potter characters?

[limpid jetty]

It’s hi in a happy way

A really happy way

[reef gazelle]

Ahhh

[limpid jetty]

Yes

[finite lion]

Moody Snape Sirius

[humble sequoia]

You, Malfoy
Snape ,Cedric

[reef gazelle]

Hermione Bella and Dobby

[limpid jetty]

My favourites are: Fred and George, Newt and Sirius

[limpid jetty]

Bellatrix?

[finite lion]

I like Jacob

[reef gazelle]

Yes

[humble sequoia]

2

[finite lion]

And Jacob

[limpid jetty]

3

[finite lion]

Oh three

Then

Jacob Snape Sirius

[spark mica]

I like Hermione and Luna hihi haha

[limpid jetty]

I like Hermione

[reef gazelle]

Is so funny speak english, because in my school I have only red notes in that matter

[limpid jetty]

Definitely in top 10 I say

[limpid jetty]

Uhh what?

[spark mica]

Molly is amazing too, she allegedy cooks 'excellently'

[reef gazelle]

I'm from chilean

Sudamérica

[humble sequoia]

well i hate everything about Beasts movies and it's characters but ok in harry potter my fav characters are: Cedric, Snape, Lupin, Sirius

[limpid jetty]

I know where that is, but I do not understand the red notes

[finite lion]

Well hp isn't FB so I can't say Jacob
Snape,Moody,Sirius

[limpid jetty]

Have you watched the latest one?

[reef gazelle]

Oh, it is how a bad note

[limpid jetty]

Okay

[vivid forum]

The first movie was good, the second was ok, and the last one was subpar

[reef gazelle]

I agree with you

[normal stone]

I partially AGREE. Yes to the first movie but the third was better than the second.

[limpid jetty]

I loved the first and third

[humble sequoia]

no i just watched the first 2 and they just didn't give me anything that harry potter gave me. I was very excited before watching the first one but very disappointed afterwards

[normal stone]

I didn't love the third, though, despite my SteelBook copy.

If people ask me, the first deserved sequels it never got. 😛

[vivid forum]

I thought third was cool but the story was kinda bad

[normal stone]

Yeah, but I think it was less of a mess than the second.

[limpid jetty]

Should I buy the special edition Harry Potter 25th anniversary

[vivid forum]

I can see that

[limpid jetty]

Or should I get the harry potter and the hbp

[normal stone]

I just hate how there are more two Rotten movies in the franchise.

[humble sequoia]

i got the 1st 4 harry potter movies on videocassette

[reef gazelle]

Where i choose mi house?

[humble sequoia]

and later movies on dvd

[spark mica]

#🏰choose-your-house i think

Not entirely sure though, the name is sort of vague

[humble sequoia]

but sadly movies can be watched online for free nowadays 🙂

[vivid forum]

It had potential but sadly it was ruined

[normal stone]

Same but only for the first two.

[limpid jetty]

I got streaming services

[vivid forum]

I just watch my Harry Potter movies on HBO

[limpid jetty]

Me too

[vivid forum]

But I do have a CD for 4th, which I watch on my PS

[limpid jetty]

I got none

No cds, no blurays

[normal stone]

Indeed. The only way the fourth and fifth should happen is if J. K. Rowling handles the story but NOT the screenplay.

[vivid forum]

I actually watched the third Beast movie on HBO

[humble sequoia]

i remember the day i realised i can watch everything online for free i just watch all the movies i ever wanted but then after 1 year or so there were no good movies to watch anymore, same for series

[vivid forum]

No way they are going to involve JK, no one is going to watch the movie cause uk

[limpid jetty]

I pay for streaming services because the creators need to have some money too

[spark mica]

The imbalance in content production and content consumption times

[limpid jetty]

Have any of you guys watched return to hogwarts

[humble sequoia]

last great thing i watched was squid game

[vivid forum]

Yeah tbh movies are kinda lackin nowadays.

[normal stone]

I mean, I'd expect they would still involve her, even that means, as Billy Talent goes, 'walking on pins and needles'.

[limpid jetty]

What about Minions rise of gru😅

[humble sequoia]

wtf just happened

[normal stone]

LOVED IT.

[limpid jetty]

Oooh mee tooo

[vivid forum]

I haven't watched it but my friends didn't like it so idk

[humble sequoia]

guess comments get deleted if they include certain words

[rose eagle]

Yee was a good watch :3

[limpid jetty]

Jup

[vivid forum]

Oh shoot I haven't the reunion thing

Should I watch it?

[limpid jetty]

Go watch it

[rose eagle]

Yes xD

[limpid jetty]

Noooow

Why haven’t you

[normal stone]

Actually, the worst Harry Potter I've ever seen is the Tournament of Houses. The game show was fine, albeit mostly basic, but sooo cringe.

[vivid forum]

Alr alr I'll watch it while having lunch. Cya guys

[humble sequoia]

yeah it's like in that south park episode where stanley thinks everything is bad. They go to the movies and he makes comments how bad everything is xD

[sonic grove]

my fav movie has to be ootp

[limpid jetty]

I like that one

[rose eagle]

Bye Batman!

[sonic grove]

i love the death eater flight from it, i saw it in the hl trailer

[limpid jetty]

Bye

[normal stone]

U2! Back to work for me too!

[humble sequoia]

you mean out of the harry potter movies or total?

[sonic grove]

hp movies

[limpid jetty]

I like the battle with dumbledore vs voldemort

Really intriguing

[sonic grove]

i love the battle where the order arrives to save the day

i love the flight they used, i hope it's included in hl

[humble sequoia]

i think it was decent yeah. But i remember 2,3 and 4 those movies gave me a different feeling back then

[sonic grove]

4 was so awful

[rose eagle]

I liked Goblet of Fire the most tbh, fun Yule Ball ✨

[sonic grove]

but the yule ball was awesome i agree

[limpid jetty]

2 was my favourite for a long time

[humble sequoia]

also i swear the love subplots made them act very weird in the later movies so i prefer the earlier movies

[sonic grove]

oml i hate ginny in the movies

[humble sequoia]

i always hated the 6th one. The only good think was the last 30 minutes

[sonic grove]

shoelace

[rose eagle]

Teenager hormones be like that 💀

[humble sequoia]

edgy one liners xd

[sonic grove]

i swear i want to die everytime i think/hear/see that line

[humble sequoia]

but ron in the movies is also unbearable sometimes

why couldn't they keep book ron

[limpid jetty]

I love Ron

[sonic grove]

they made ron too much of a moron in the movies

[humble sequoia]

yeah

[sonic grove]

every good thing about him was squeezed by hermione

she even stole one of his lines in the 3rd movie

[limpid jetty]

Ron should be the know it all of the trio, not hermiine

Hermione

[sonic grove]

ok u can stop right there lol, ron is street smart, but hermione is smart smart

[spark mica]

He was at times super one dimensional. How on earth did movie-Hermione like movie-Ron

[limpid jetty]

That’s what I meant

[humble sequoia]

book smart

[sonic grove]

oh i see soz

[sonic grove]

yeah why didn't the word come up in my head haha sorry

[humble sequoia]

i mean hermione mistook a cats hair for a persons hair

[spark mica]

Yeaaaa but come on she was a genius too 🤣

[limpid jetty]

Hehehe

Everyone can make a mistake

[sonic grove]

how much are y'all willing to pay max for hl when it releases

[spark mica]

Depends on what deluxe editions there are. If there's a version with an artbook that's €100 i'll buy standard

[rose eagle]

Depends how much game there is tbh

[sonic grove]

same

[limpid jetty]

100 euros

Maximum

[spark mica]

The standard game should cost €60 on Switch, PS4, Xone, PC and 70 on XSeries and PS5, as is standard

[limpid jetty]

And I’m getting it digitally

[sonic grove]

someone told me of preorder bonuses such as exclusive items and 72 hour early access

[humble sequoia]

i am just really worried that it might not be for PC

[limpid jetty]

?

[humble sequoia]

i don't want to get a console for a game

[sonic grove]

it is for pc dw, it's even already on steam

[spark mica]

It was announced for PC, so it will release on PC.

[rose eagle]

Noooo no exclusives 😭

[limpid jetty]

Yeah

[sonic grove]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/990080/Hogwarts_Legacy/

[limpid jetty]

Exclusives are dumb

[spark mica]

One thing that sucks is it might come with Denuvo but yeah

That's understandable if so

[humble sequoia]

ah ok cuz i saw someone claim something else, but guess they were just trolling

[limpid jetty]

And

[rose eagle]

Hate Denuvo, it's the reason the new sonic game, which is just 2D pixel platformer, is sluggish on a modern laptop - _-

Like bruh

[spark mica]

What Shye says. Denuvo has a major performance impact on PC games. Steam Games that run at 44 fps suddenly run at 70 when pirates take it out

[humble sequoia]

Hi again
What I missed?

[spark mica]

Me

[limpid jetty]

It’s that bad

[spark mica]

And i am sick

[spark mica]

Yeah man it's awful, but... it does keep games from getting pirated on day one. So..

It's a necessary evil. And a modern approach is to keep Denuvo throughout the initial sales period and then take it out after a month or two. Exactly for performance reasons.

[limpid jetty]

Steamworks is better

[humble sequoia]

Yeah maybe UR right!

[spark mica]

Steamwork games get cracked on release man

Sometimes before

[rose eagle]

Hope they do this then 😭

[spark mica]

A fun fact is that Denuvo costs €100.000 to implement on a AAA release, with lower prices for lesser known studios or IPs

[rose eagle]

Much monies 💀

[wild niche]

[humble sequoia]

Hey @wild niche

[wild niche]

Hållo

[humble sequoia]

How was your day?

[wild niche]

Fine

[humble sequoia]

Good
Always A!

[wild niche]

Yeah

[spark mica]

i feel like i am dying

somebody give attention

[humble sequoia]

Hei

baaaaaa

[spark mica]

Thank you, you guys are true friends

[vale dove]

Hello

[humble sequoia]

[uncut tangle]

Hi all. Any rumors out there on system requirements for PC?

[vale dove]

not yet, but it will be coming out on last gen consoles so it might not be that demanding

[spark mica]

it's a modern title for PC that seems very very focused on getting good visuals, so if you have to ask, maybe you're in trouble

what PC do you have

[river siren]

Sus

[twin halo]

We all having a good evening?

[craggy patio]

Morning* and only just woke up so yes?

[vagrant kernel]

who thinks that Dumbledore will be in legacy since the game takes place in 1890

[craggy patio]

only if we make it to yr 7

since he will be a first yr at that stage

[vagrant kernel]

yea i know so do u think he will be in it

[craggy patio]

maybe not base game but dlc? good chance

[vagrant kernel]

im thinking he will be in the base game

[craggy patio]

i suppose its a question of how long the base game is. since we are starting in yr 5.

[spark mica]

Yes, other than the fact that i am at Death's door

bloody pile of bones is not answering again though

[craggy patio]

its certainly within the realm of possibility that we do meet him

[finite schooner]

i think the game will only cover year 5

[twin halo]

What's wrong with you mate

[finite schooner]

gives them room for sequels and dlc

[spark mica]

general flu-y-ness

[jagged olive]

I don't think he will be in the base game, from what i got from the trailers, the games main focus being that you create your own story at hogwarts without worrying to much about it staying within cannon

[craggy patio]

ya, hence my thinking that it will prob be DLC

[twin halo]

Ahh awful stuff

[craggy patio]

got a bug going though the family atm so i feel ya there Zot

[vagrant kernel]

yea but he could be a npc that u can be friend and have him go on missions in ur 7th year

[jagged olive]

I could see that, but I think that if he does come into the game it will either be a small cameo or in a dlc

[craggy patio]

DLC seems most likely to me

[jagged olive]

Same

[craggy patio]

hell, maybe even a sequel xD

[jagged olive]

True

[vagrant kernel]

yea dlc or s sequel is all possible so what do yall think how choosing our wands will be like

[jagged olive]

I'm kind of hoping you can choose but it might just be a quiz

[craggy patio]

will probably that we get to "build" our wand and the store will "just so happen" to have one like that but only after being given one and something funny happening

[vagrant kernel]

yea i am hoping that we can build it also if u can can you guess what i would try to make my wand out of

[craggy patio]

a choice to do either would be nice but unlikely in my eyes

[jagged olive]

Or you might have a cut scene of going through wands and then it just lets you choose one

i kind of like the idea of wand being random or from some kind of quiz but i also want that freedom to choose a wand that would fit me, especially if it would affect how you play. like if certain wands do spells better then others

[craggy patio]

its my preference that we get the freedom to choice

because the pottermoor quiz exists to substitute

[jagged olive]

True

[vagrant kernel]

i would try to make a elder wand cause from the movies one of the last people to get it before it was stolen it was at the wand shop

[jagged olive]

ooohh

i wonder if you would be able to unlock the elder wand in the game

[craggy patio]

i hope not

let the deathly hallows remain in the books and movies. but thats just me

[vagrant kernel]

there could be a good mechanic that would go with it as in if u have the elder wand more dark wizards could come and try to fight u

[jagged olive]

or as a end game or late game unlock

but i agree with it not being an unlock or just purely being a custom skin for a wand

[craggy patio]

though i suppose its a good question, the Elder Wand IS around and Dumbledore doesnt have it yet so where is it?

[vagrant kernel]

before dumbledore got it someone stole it from the wand shop

[jagged olive]

especially with how the game seems to center around you figuring out older magic

[spark mica]

Grindlewald, isn't it?

Didn't Dumbledore win in from him in their duel?

[jagged olive]

grindlewald stole the wand from Mykew

[craggy patio]

personally, maybe a mention of it or an encounter with its wielder but i do not think we should have it (outside of maybe cosmetic stuff?)

[jagged olive]

i agree

i would like some kind of nod to the deathly hallows but i don't want them to be a usable item

i have a feeling they might be a usable item but im hoping not

[craggy patio]

ya, there all a little balance breaking imo

[spark mica]

Balance? The game is 1 protagonist vs an army of magical enemies, in single plauer game design you have to sacrifice 'balance' to make a fun game

[humble sequoia]

Will this game have roleplay features?

or is gonna be action adventure with customisation only?

[craggy patio]

even single player games need balance to ensure its challenging and fun for the players

[humble sequoia]

like is it gonna be a Witcher 3 style or a Cyberpunk 2077 style?

[spark mica]

Yes, you'll be able to make various choices for yourself and level up attributes

[humble sequoia]

when will it be released?

[jagged olive]

making a game too broken takes the fun out of it because there is no challenge, but it's also fun to have some broken items when they have some draw back to them

[spark mica]

Nov-dec

[craggy patio]

no date yet but have heard ppl talking dec 6th

[humble sequoia]

how likely is the game to be cancelled?

:/

[craggy patio]

unlikely

[vale dove]

the game will not be cancelled

[spark mica]

I see your point, but even the Elder Wand can be balanced to make the game enjoyable still. Of course it should feel more powerful than a normal wand but that doesn't mean the devs need to make the player God

[vale dove]

they are already mostly done with it

[humble sequoia]

then why is the media team so quiet?

[craggy patio]

cause we closing in on the final stretch for the game. devs always get quiet around that time

[vale dove]

Im guessing they don't want to reveal a lot of information to keep it a surprise

[spark mica]

This reminds me what the black suit did in spider-man web of shadows. The player ws a bit stronger, yes, but the real difference between it and the red suit were the abilities you used in combat

So maybe they could make the elder wand just give you an exclusive spell or w/e

[humble sequoia]

what I am worried is that due to the lack of talk or promotion... the game might be lackluster

like it might not have many features

[jagged olive]

no im fully with you, that's why i feel like it should be a end game or late game item because of how powerful it's said to be. we should build up to that point to use it. but i also feel like story wise it wouldn't fit and it shouldn't be shoved into the story just to be cool. so i hope they either don't have it or they make a story to were it would fit.

I know the game it out for pre order right now

[craggy patio]

only time will tell. so little patience is required (painful as it is >.< ) am sure we will get more info soon

[humble sequoia]

I just hope it's actually good as the first promotional material...

I think they are biting themselves by calling it a role-playing experience

Why do you think that?@NotEncrypted#2832

[spark mica]

He's not in the server anymore, strange

[warm sorrel]

Yhea,i noticed after i posted

People tend to assume role play is just one special kind of game

I consider red dead 2 an rpg

[spark mica]

I think most games fit the name 'role playing game'

You're always playong some 'role' so idk the term is vague

But some commonly accepted RPG criteria:

• level up system
• choices in game
• repetitious battles or gameplay
• freedom to explore

And HL does fit these quite well

[vale dove]

well and you are also literally playing as a wizard

id consider that a role playing game

[craggy patio]

is there a "role" with in the world that the character you play as inhabits? can you be immersed in it? if yes to both then its a RPG lol. atleast in my humble opinion

[spark mica]

But that again is a bit too broad, do you not play a 'role' in call of duty? In that game you play the role of a soldier killing various people

[craggy patio]

hence the condition of immersion

[spark mica]

In pac-man you play the 'role' of a yellow pizza thinf eating small circles

Well you cam get immersed in call of duty more than pac-man 🤣

[craggy patio]

and RDR games more then CoD 😄

[spark mica]

Yeah

[craggy patio]

i do think there is a level of immersion that needs to be met but that varies from person to person

[vale dove]

RDR is the peak of immersion in games

I hope HL can achieve the level of detail and realism rdr has

[craggy patio]

a minimalist UI/HUD will help with that

part of what makes the RDR games more immersive then say, Fallout games

the latter having health bars and such

[spark mica]

Dead Space had a great system for that, the HUD was integrated into the protagonist's suit

[warm sorrel]

Yhea

[craggy patio]

if the gameplay trailer is anything to go by, hud will be limited in scope which is amazing

[warm sorrel]

Dont forget that for trailers they take out the Hud

But i can see it being minimalistic

And nowdays most games offer the options to turn stuff off

[craggy patio]

but it does show that when we take dmg there is a red blurring on the edge of the screen for dmg

[warm sorrel]

A visual indicator

[maiden pagoda]

The very old 2018 leak has much more hud than the real trailers, you can see things like an objective overlay

[warm sorrel]

Hooo,forgot about that

[maiden pagoda]

That being said the real trailers do have some visual elements, there's a white triangle that pops up frequently that seems to denote interactability

[craggy patio]

was also some people that were able to pull out a bit of the hud from a few frames by messing with colour sclaes

but that was most likely a place holder that wasnt meant to be shown

[maiden pagoda]

Yeah that didn't look very fleshed out

[vale dove]

definitely a WIP

[craggy patio]

on the note of gameplay videos....... robe physics

look amazing!

[spark mica]

I wish Harry rubbed it in Voldemort's fave that he was a half blood at least once

[humble sequoia]

voldemort knew anywa

i don't think voldemort sees halfbloods any different since he is one himself

[spark mica]

Didn't he absolutely loathe his father for being a muggle?

[humble sequoia]

yeah he still can't change the fact that he is a half blood himself

snape is as well

[spark mica]

Could still be tormented with it tho

[humble sequoia]

and voldemort respected snape

[spark mica]

It's like calling an ugly person ugly. The ugly person knows, but still stings

[lilac lily]

Ive been trying to sleep for over an hour

Laying in my bed in the dark

But it didn’t work so I’m on my phone again

[humble sequoia]

let me find a sleeping spell for you

[still crystal]

Sleep is for the weak

[humble sequoia]

close your eyes and think you are walking threw hogwarts and everything around you is calm.

[lilac lily]

I literally just tried that

[vale dove]

thats not going to help

[humble sequoia]

there is no danger just you and hogwarts

[lilac lily]

Yes but I can’t concentrate

It just disappears

It’s annoying

[still crystal]

Read a book

[lilac lily]

Don’t have any with me

I’m not at home

[craggy patio]

Ware your self out with excersice. Push ups etc

[lilac lily]

I’m sharing this room

[humble sequoia]

imagine a kind hufflepuff girl is with you and she is stroking your hair

[lilac lily]

If I go out of bed everyone wakes up

[humble sequoia]

yeah you need to get comfortable and just close your eyes and imagine stuff

[lilac lily]

That’s what I’ve been trying tho 😭

If anything the imagining is what’s keeping me awake

[craggy patio]

..... so in games one cant sleep when enemies are nearby.....

[humble sequoia]

exercise before sleeping is a no go

it should be done like 4 hours minimum before sleeping

[craggy patio]

the more you know

[lilac lily]

I need to kill them 🔪 😈

[craggy patio]

"Avarda Kedavra" is reliable at times like this

[pale salmon]

A nice, clean problem solver

[lilac lily]

I made a variant of sectum sempera with visible knives

[craggy patio]

oh! fancy

[lilac lily]

I know

They’re pink with red hearts

[craggy patio]

murder with flair

[lilac lily]

Voldaddy would be proud

[craggy patio]

unlikely. he was boring with his murder

[lilac lily]

That’s only the times that Harry was there. He didn’t think he deserved the show

[craggy patio]

the one person in the world prophesied to best him?

[lilac lily]

Yes

Cant let him win and enjoy it too now can you?

[craggy patio]

tsk, such high standards

[lilac lily]

Just like how earth vader fought everyone with one hand to show off except the ones he knew could beat him

[long wraith]

Ayo we got anything on this?

[lilac lily]

He was a misunderstood artist!

[craggy patio]

what ever else, just give me that lightning bolt from the trailer as well! wanna zap ppl to dust!

[lilac lily]

I’m not even a Tom stan idk why I’m defending him

[craggy patio]

nothing says "I'm having it my way" like a lightning strike to the cranium

[lilac lily]

Except killing Fred and George’s uncle with their own nephew’s fireworks

[craggy patio]

scuse me well i go rewatch the battle of hogwarts rq

[lilac lily]

?

What’s rq

[craggy patio]

real quick

[lilac lily]

Ohh

[lilac lily]

U know this isn’t real right

[craggy patio]

oh i know

[lilac lily]

It’s a ✨ headcanon ✨

[craggy patio]

just have a craving for viewing death and destruction

[lilac lily]

He did it because Fred and George threw snowballs at him

[craggy patio]

in the HP universe

[lilac lily]

That part is canon

[ruby folio]

I am at Universal Studios Hollywood and I’m thinking about the upcoming game!! 😍

[craggy patio]

oh! enjoy your time there!

[pale salmon]

Ooh nice.

[still crystal]

Lucky

[terse sandal]

So I've had this question for a long time and can't really find a definitive answer: Why do Death Eaters apparate differently than normal witches/wizards?

[craggy patio]

think that was just a visual difference for the movies

to help distinguish which side an aparating person is on

[humble sequoia]

I want more Harry Potter stuff
I need more Harry Potter
I want TV Shows, movies, Books, EVERYTHING

Just like Star Wars

[terse sandal]

There's gonna be another Fantastic Beasts, but probably without Ezra Miller

[humble sequoia]

Yeah but when first HP TV Show ?

[terse sandal]

Idk, I'd like to see something Ilvermorny based

[pale salmon]

I think the reverse flash was trying to do good…🤣

[reef gazelle]

hellooo

Were i download the Game? 🤔

[terse sandal]

Origin

or the Warner Brothers launcher

[reef gazelle]

anddd, is free? is in pc?

[terse sandal]

on pc yes

[raven ferry]

If your talking about this game it's not out yet but we assume it will be around the holidays November -December. Price is probably standard $60+ depending the editions of the game

[reef gazelle]

Oh, thanks

[raven ferry]

Np

#👉faq everything we know is in here

[reef gazelle]

Howarts Legacy have a demo downloadable??

On pc

[raven ferry]

No it doesn't. most single player games don't have demos

Or at least these days

[vale dove]

Hello

[pale salmon]

Hi

[silver scarab]

Hello!

[reef gazelle]

Hi

[lilac lily]

I fell asleep

But I’m waking up after every sleep cycle

And I don’t feel tired at all because I just sat in a car yesterday all day

[reef gazelle]

What our is in England or United States??

[lilac lily]

?

[reef gazelle]

What time is it there in the United States or England?

[craggy patio]

UK 5 hours ahead of the US

[lilac lily]

I’m not in the United States but it’s 23:19 or smth in the USA rn

[craggy patio]

i should specify that UK is 5 hours a head of Washington D.C.

cause US has like..... 5 time zones xD

[reef gazelle]

Ohh, in Chilean it's 23:25

[lilac lily]

Rlly?

Then I think I’m wrong about the time in the USA

[reef gazelle]

Yeah

[lilac lily]

Oh it’s 22:27 there in Kansas

[still crystal]

22:28 where I am

[lilac lily]

Oh nvm I’m stupid chile is south of the USA it makes sense that it’s the same time

[reef gazelle]

I think there is a state in the USA in which the Chilean time is connected

[lilac lily]

Yeah anywhere in west USA

[still crystal]

I think Colorado is the same

[reef gazelle]

this is the good thing about being on servers that are not from your country, I always learn something about the UK or USA

I think my dad said (when I was like 7 years old) that it was in Los Angeles

[lilac lily]

Its 20:34 in Los Angeles rn

[craggy patio]

i mean.... im about as far from the UK as you get

other side of the Planet far

New Zealand, GMT +12

[cedar rampart]

Does anyone know if there’s a beta

[craggy patio]

or +13 depending on DLS

[craggy patio]

unlikely to ever be a Beta. since thats mostly a Multiplayer game thing for stress testing servers

[lilac lily]

I know that there isn’t one right now

[craggy patio]

more likely to get a Demo but even those have gone out of style in the last few yrs

[late hollow]

whens release

im bored I need a new good game

and how do I get early access or tester

[normal stone]

Early Access has not been announced for Hogwarts Legacy. Sorry.

[lilac lily]

It has tho

There was a leak that someone found in the website source code

[craggy patio]

thats a leak

not an announcement

so until such time as an official announcement, take with a grain of salt

[lilac lily]

Yeah but it was literally found in the source code of the official website

That’s a pretty big deal

[craggy patio]

so was DLC stuff if memory serves

[lilac lily]

Yes it was

[craggy patio]

but plans change so dont count on it holding true

[lilac lily]

that was last week or smth

[craggy patio]

hence the need for an official announcement

[lilac lily]

They’re not changing that 6 months before realease

I doubt it at least

[craggy patio]

i do wonder if the Early Access isnt a Pre-Order bouns or something like that

like 3 days head start etc

[lilac lily]

Yeah that’s my guess too

[finite schooner]

if i get early access im definitely preordering

[humble sequoia]

[normal stone]

Unless it's officially announced by WB, then those leaks we do not comment on nor can confirm.

[lilac lily]

Is it against server rules for me to say it?

I can delete it if u want

[craggy patio]

Dont think so

just that mods and up wont speak on it

which is no surprise. its a common practice

[delicate scaffold]

is there really nothing new coming from WB for months?

i thought this DC is to advertise their product or something in a more modern way🤣

[frail fractal]

xd

cant say

[humble sequoia]

bruh

i fell asleep 5 minutes after our conversation

[dreamy ingot]

WB is just slower than us it seems lol. We find our own news

But this is an official server so there’s like strict rules about that stuff — completely understandable ofc

[lilac lily]

Nice

[rigid sage]

Please announce date soon. Cant wait any longer

[craggy patio]

i only remmebered this game was in the making a few days ago, cant imagine what its been like for the rest of you

[dreamy ingot]

cough

[marble star]

Helloooooo

[sonic grove]

same

[humble sequoia]

[humble sequoia]

Fr

I need the pre order available so I dont spend my money on other stuff cause im stupid sometimes

[sonic grove]

I’m so excited

[carmine inlet]

Is the pre order available ? I don't have any information so I apologize if this was already been said

[red moat]

Pre-orders are not officially available just yet, some retailers have put out 'pre-orders' on their own stores though

[spark mica]

What was the story behind the House Ghosts role again? I can't find it in the rules or daq

Maybe i'm just dull

[red moat]

It's for people who boost the server

[spark mica]

Oooooo

Interesting
