[deep crane]

I can't justify the price with that book and wand. Would love that steelbook but it really isnt worth that price

[neat belfry]

I would like to preorder two copies of the game, one for pc and one for the Nintendo switch but idk if I should get them both digital, physical or mix and match 🤔🤔

[deep crane]

Im getting it mix match. I want a physical copy but the digital has more freebies.

[humble sequoia]

Man, why don't you guys just realize that the most important here isn't the extra stuff you get for preorders or other stuff and not see that the most important thing here is well, just getting the game!

[ocean lava]

hey guys 🙂 is there a game ?

not sure if there is one

[normal stone]

I'm figuring I may even do like I may do with God of War Ragnarök. Buy Collector's and Launch Editions, sell the game code or trade it in, and just keep the disc from LE with the rest of my CE.

[normal stone]

To be fair, the extra shtuff only matters if you're buying more than just Standard Edition.

[humble sequoia]

I'm likely just getting the standard edition.

[normal stone]

Ah, nice.

[deep crane]

Freebies tho

[humble sequoia]

I will preorder it, but I'll have to do it digitally.

[rugged niche]

Will wait a little for more information. Animations looked janky as hell. But will likely buy the Digital Deluxe one, because headstart.

[humble sequoia]

Honestly graphics are one of the things I care about the least when it comes to new games. Most of my favourite games are from past consoles and game gens.

[winged venture]

Hello fellas

[humble sequoia]

Evening, Gamingo!

[winged venture]

An Evenly Morning, Topaz!

[humble sequoia]

Just trying to get my XSS working again.

[winged venture]

XSS - Xmas Simulation System?

[humble sequoia]

Xbox Series S

[winged venture]

Undoubtedly yes

[humble sequoia]

I still think Microsoft could have used plenty of better names for these new consoles. Sure, I find the names XSX and XSS as better than Xbox One, but still.

[elfin rampart]

I mean it’s still an Xbox

[humble sequoia]

Yeah and? What exactly is that supposed to mean?

Honestly I'm just waiting to Preorder HL.

[snow cosmos]

Xbox series x gang

[humble sequoia]

Does the Series S also count? Cause the Series X was too expensive for me and also sold out everywhere.

[snow cosmos]

I mean my cousin has the series s and honesty they're the same thing...

[humble sequoia]

In that case...

[snow cosmos]

Only difference is the storage and 4k resolution

They delayed the game huh 😒

[humble sequoia]

My TVs can't handle 4K already. So yeah.

I'd rather them spend more time on the game to make sure it's good than something bad happen.

[snow cosmos]

@humble sequoia I'm on 4k 60 fps and I love it honesty I don't notice much differnece tho

Yeah true I can't wait tho

[humble sequoia]

I have Pokemon Sc/Vi to play while I wait for HL.

[snow cosmos]

Love that 1 too

[humble sequoia]

I even have people I'm gonna co-op with. :3

[snow cosmos]

Hopefully the collectors edition is under $250

Or even $200

Doubt it tho

[humble sequoia]

I don't need more than just the game itself, so I only am just gonna preorder the digital port.

[snow cosmos]

You're getting the deluxe version?

I think it's worth it fir the $90

Or $80 I think they said

[humble sequoia]

Wait
Brandon, are you also a Canadian?

[amber nova]

Ngl poutine be fye af

[humble sequoia]

I like me some good Poutine myself sometimes as well. :3

[snow cosmos]

No

[humble sequoia]

Cause games on their own cost like, $80 CAD. Each.

[amber nova]

+tax

[humble sequoia]

Indeed.

[amber nova]

Which pack are y’all getting ?

[humble sequoia]

Just the game on it's own. But I am preordering the digital version.

[amber nova]

Yeah am getting the digital version

[snow cosmos]

I really wanna get the collectors but I feel like imms regret it ad its not that much lol

It doesn't compare with far cry 6s collectors edition

[normal stone]

Welp, I shall be off! Nighty Pottaheads! 😉

[humble sequoia]

Night JBJ!

[normal stone]

U2!

[amber nova]

Yeah am trying to get ma ps5 before game comes out so getting collectors wouldn’t be a smart move for me

[humble sequoia]

Well where I am, it's TECHNICALLY August 25th. So yeah...

[amber nova]

Same

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well where I am it's only 20 minutes into the 25th. So I ain't getting that preorder quite yet.

So, while we're in General, if I make a reference to something how many of you will get the reference?

[true stirrup]

8am Pacific standard time

[thick gazelle]

I am and getting the digital deluxe edition

[true stirrup]

I'm getting the deluxe too ♡

I think the collectors edition is a bit stiff for what it's got?

[humble sequoia]

not yet. i want to know PC requirements first before i buy. since my pc is specced with a GTX970M so quite old
if my pc cant handle it i will buy it for switch

[true stirrup]

I was considering pc.... but I enjoy playing on my switch so I think I'll get it for that ♡

[humble sequoia]

yeah switch is really nice.

but i still love pc a bit more but if it cant handle it. Why not use my switch again.

just hope there wont be a massive graphical downgrade but i doubt that there wont

I'm gonna go get some sleep now. Night ya'll.

good night!

[thick gazelle]

Have a good night

[true stirrup]

Yeah.. I wish they'd show an image from ingame on switch vs ps5 or something

[humble sequoia]

yeah same

[true stirrup]

Maybe that's something @timid rivet @faint belfry or @brisk rapids could help us with?

[thick gazelle]

Agreed

[violet fractal]

Someone knows if there will be a specific place where you can pre-order or you just have to refresh https://www.hogwartslegacy.com until something appears 🙂🤨

????

[swift spoke]

Amazon, bestbuy, walmart, your local game shelf store

[violet fractal]

Ok thx

[humble sequoia]

[bold oyster]

hi everyone, have they released the system requirements for the game yet? 🙂

[thick gazelle]

Lol me

[swift spoke]

I woke up at 6am for this special day

It’s now 8:13am

[violet fractal]

So if I want it on PC, I should be in Epic Game pressing F5, right? 🤨👀

[true stirrup]

No, not that I know of anyway. I haven't seen any specifics yet

[swift spoke]

Idk what you mean by F5, but yh, steam also

[true stirrup]

It doesn't release until 8am PT

[acoustic crater]

i am watching gameplay reveal for the 10000 time

[pale tiger]

The deluxe pre-order, does that mean you can't get any mounts other than a broom? Or you just can't get a Thestral + Griffen Mount later in game?

Please @ me

[elfin rampart]

I hope you can use locomotor mortis

[acoustic crater]

if you have deluxe you get threstal and griffen i dont know when

[pale tiger]

Yeah I'm just wondering if it's possible to get a Thestral Mount a another way

[acoustic crater]

no they say not only if you have deluxe

[lunar warren]

Sorry for my question, but is it possible to pre order Hogwarts Legacy on steam today?

[swift spoke]

Yes

[swift spoke]

In 7 hours exact

@swift spoke thank you!! Appreciate it 😁

[halcyon marsh]

Yeaa like I am

[swift spoke]

👍

[swift spoke]

Why you on discord ?

[halcyon marsh]

I was going to but then I had a question that wasn't exactly answered and I'm looking through the different tabs before I do lol

[north crater]

The point is after the disappointment collectors edition is that we cannot upgrade through physical deluxe edition to the Ps5 edition

[short haven]

I'm just hoping that the Collectors Edition is a joke and the real one will be nicer. I was shocked as I saw the unboxing and everything is just in that cheap plastic-mold. 😢

[true jasper]

hi

[gentle oriole]

Here in germany, you can preorder at amazon NOW by a mistake?! All CEs are gone...and the first is at ebay for 666€ 🤪

[gentle oriole]

It's a very very expensive joke!

[short haven]

I can only find Xbox Series X and PS5, I guess they just published the pages but there is no stock available yet

[gentle oriole]

I preordered the Deluxe Edition for PS5. So it works 👍

at play3.de is a Link and an anouncement for the preorder.

[short haven]

you're right, Basic+Deluxe Editions are already preorderable at Amazon in 🇩🇪 👍
Only PC is missing

[hearty cedar]

But in Amazon Germany it shows the release date beginning of March

[gentle oriole]

Not the first time, Amazon Germany works "professional" like today 😞

[faint frost]

today is the pre-order on steam ?

[swift spoke]

Yes

[coarse raven]

Can someone @ me? Where will I be able to purchase the Physical Collectors Edition, I'm a PC player

[swift spoke]

Your local stores website like walmart, Best Buy, amazon

[faint frost]

when ?

[swift spoke]

6 hours time from now

[coarse raven]

I have an alarm 15 behind hand lol

Like I did for the 2 announcements yesterday

[little musk]

Do we know yet what the heck the dark arts battle arena is?? I can't find an answer anywhere.
Is this gonna be like a combat game mode that's only available with the more expensive editions?
Do we get a normal battle arena in base game and the dark arts version is just like a "skin"??

[swift spoke]

We don’t know as of yet

[gentle oriole]

If i remember right its like a PVP Area?!

[little musk]

It's a bit annoying to me because they're banking on people paying more without telling us exactly what we're getting

And the battle arena seems to be the most interesting thing out of the benefits of the more expensive versions

[little musk]

Was this announced anywhere? Or just speculation?

[gentle oriole]

I remember, i read it on a gaming website. I search the link again. But with no multiplayer, you battle NPC Player i think.

[vernal crest]

So, macOS Version, when? @timid rivet

[swift spoke]

Don’t ping Finch/chandler y’all

[vernal crest]

Sorry 🙈😝

[swift spoke]

It’s in the rules i think

[vale palm]

Guten Tag ✌️

[gentle oriole]

On gematsu.com : Access to the Dark Arts Battle Arena, where players can test their mastery of the Dark Arts against waves of challenging enemies.

[grand ruin]

How do people feel about the collectors edition, for me a little overpriced for what you are getting?

[acoustic ether]

normal

ce not worth the money

[short haven]

it could've been so much better. I don't even like how everything is wrapped. It looks so cheap

[twin halo]

I'm indifferent I was never buying it anyway

[north crater]

A disappointment to be honest! They could do so much with the Collectors edition for example
Personalized Hogwarts Letter, A Map of the game or Hogwarts, a banner with the crest of Hogwarts, the artbook and the soundtrack and the new Houses crests if you wanted to create your own robe!

[humble sequoia]

Really disappointing. That book must of cost a fair amount to produce (nothing compared to the price) but compared to what they could have done. They could of done some coins, letters, an art book, downloadable soundtrack and maybe a standard new collectors wand like you can get for the Harry Potter ones. Would of cost them less to produce and been far better. Weird direction they have done in.

Hogwarts Legacy Delux Collecetors Edition revealed, check out the video from Avalanche Games.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlPKejj-oEw&t=185s

[slow creek]

Hiii. Two questions.

1. Does anybody know how much is it going to cost the digital edition of the game?? Like rn in the pre-sale

2. The digital edition is for those of us whose console only supports games that are downloaded from the store directly, right?

[sacred owl]

ps4 and xbox one it is about £55 and on ps5 and xbox series x it will be about £60

not sure if you have different currency but you can convert it :)

and pc im guessing £50

[indigo brook]

hi, does anyone know if people from spain will be able to pre-save at 6am PT at hogwartslegacy.com? If I visit the web page from my spanish IP theres nothing announcing the pre-save...

[bold quest]

@indigo brook what do you mean by pre save

[tawdry anchor]

How late will pre orders be open

[bold quest]

Pre orders open 8 am pt

[indigo brook]

pre order

[tawdry anchor]

Allr ty

[frozen nova]

How much would it cost on Norwegian Crowns?

[bold quest]

@indigo brook you can pre order at the store of your platform
Playstation,xbox,steam

[indigo brook]

but what about deluxe edition

physical one

[bold quest]

Check your retail stores

[karmic heath]

Hey what do you think of the collectors edition

[frozen nova]

Dont care about it

[indigo brook]

i mean, if you check this it says you could preorder at the official web site

https://twitter.com/HogwartsLegacy/status/1562485084737138690

[karmic heath]

The floating wand looks@cool

But the price is madd

[indigo brook]

rubbish

[frozen nova]

Exactly why I won't buy it

[karmic heath]

I wonder how they done it

[fleet tree]

When we can reserve the game?

[tawdry anchor]

Magnets

[indigo brook]

i wish i knew

[karmic heath]

The best one to get is probably the deluxe one right

[bold quest]

My elder wand is better

Sucks i cant post a pic on this channel smh

[vernal sluice]

Would it be smart to pre-order Hogwarts Legacy? (Like is it cheaper, or do you get free items if you pre-ordered?)

[indigo brook]

yeah an hyppogriff mount with preorder

but only with deluxe edition

[vernal sluice]

that sounds expensive 🤣

[indigo brook]

its only 10 bucks more

or twenty more if you pick digital one

[karmic heath]

I cant find the the deluxe edition

Do you get anything more with the digital copy

[vernal sluice]

I'm on PC so I have no other choice, but I'll see what I'll do

[indigo brook]

yeh a hat hahah

[karmic heath]

Yikes

[indigo brook]

but i dont care i like pshysical games

[karmic heath]

How comes

I got the disc ps5 but i dont own disc games

[indigo brook]

so maybe its better for you to get digital edition

its more expensive but it includes one more extra

[karmic heath]

Yeah i agree

[indigo brook]

anyway the extras are so dumb for the prices

[karmic heath]

With collectors do you get any in game stuff

[weary pagoda]

2h 48m!

[indigo brook]

too much dissapointed with those conditions but...

[karmic heath]

Isnt it just that little kelp robe 🤣🤣

[weary pagoda]

Yep

[indigo brook]

8 am pt right?

[weary pagoda]

Yep

[karmic heath]

Until we can pre order?

[weary pagoda]

3pm GMT for me

[indigo brook]

no i think that is for the collectors edition hahaha

[weary pagoda]

Yeah Pres

[karmic heath]

I might just get the deluxe edition in January

[karmic heath]

Yeah that sucks

[indigo brook]

cant be, its GMT+1 for me and it will be at 5pm here

[weary pagoda]

I’m only going to preorder today because it makes it feel closer

[karmic heath]

The graphics arnt looking too clean either

[karmic heath]

Fair enough aha

Hopefully in jan if i buy the deluxe its still selling etc

[weary pagoda]

Trust me holmes, it’s 3pm GMT (8am Pacific)

[indigo brook]

the prob is that im not sure if there is a limit to buy the deluxe edition. Collectors edition has limit units so

[karmic heath]

Ahhh if i buy deluxe digitally tho surely there shouldnt be a limit

Might not take no chances

[indigo brook]

yeh no prob with digital ones

[weary pagoda]

There is no limit to deluxe, just a time limit on the preorder phase, which you don’t want to miss because it gives you the onyx hippo skin

[indigo brook]

oh right

[karmic heath]

Ahh yeah thats what i was thinking

[indigo brook]

i dont care that much

[spark lichen]

How long do preorders usually last?

[karmic heath]

But surely the deluxe must come with that tho

[indigo brook]

anyways id like to get it

anyways all these extras could be added as dlc´s in future. Micropays bros hahaha

[karmic heath]

I doubt it they said this is the only way to get them

[umbral fox]

You can receive the Dark Arts Pack by pre-ordering the Deluxe, Digital Deluxe, or Collector's Edition of Hogwarts Legacy.
I see, I see

[indigo brook]

yeah until fans make pressure

[umbral fox]

How much is the Digital Deluxe?

[karmic heath]

Gutted you cant play online though

[warm sorrel]

they also said no dlc´s

[karmic heath]

Ah i hoped they would keep adding things to the game

How long do you think it will take to complete

[warm sorrel]

but here we are

[indigo brook]

they said if the game success it could became a franchise

[umbral fox]

Please, no.

Just update the game

[indigo brook]

hope so

[warm sorrel]

i know,it is already a succes

[karmic heath]

Fr

Graphics can be betted though

[indigo brook]

i wont mind a second game or third, if they are complete games ofc

[warm sorrel]

me to

[karmic heath]

Graphics look like the half blood prince on ps3 💀

[umbral fox]

I do, I think it's better if they just update the game and give us additional slots (if it's story mode)

[indigo brook]

agre HAHAH

[umbral fox]

I believe most trailers are captured on PS4 footage

[karmic heath]

Hope so 🤣🤣

What i was watching was shocking

[indigo brook]

well if you mind the price ofc it will better, but im always thinking on expanding this world

[karmic heath]

No detail whatsoever

They need to add co op

[indigo brook]

ill play on ps4 👉 👈

[warm sorrel]

last one seems ps5

[umbral fox]

If the graphics are like as in the "unforgivable curses" trailer but with good fps on my pc I'm fine with it

[karmic heath]

Or have it online multiplayer u spawn in different servers etc

[umbral fox]

I hope they'll add multiplayer in future

or co-op

[karmic heath]

Fr

[warm sorrel]

and the first one ps5 also

[indigo brook]

i think multiplayer doesnt fix hp world. Like, fulling hogwarts with trolls... magic deleted

[indigo brook]

co-op yes

[warm sorrel]

a multyplayer game would be very cool

[karmic heath]

Co op yeah or server based you and your friends can start a server and go off and do your own things

[warm sorrel]

if well done

[indigo brook]

maybe it could be like assassins creed unity

[karmic heath]

Like ark

[indigo brook]

some levels could be cooperative

but i dont imagine a multiplayer mode

[karmic heath]

As long as you cant take peoples stuff i dont see how people can really troll in hogwarts

[warm sorrel]

na,i can see a game where every player is from a house

[indigo brook]

imagine a shooter but with your wands

[warm sorrel]

and they have to work together

[karmic heath]

It would be so sick if hogwarts was full of actual players instead of npcs

[warm sorrel]

they would go 7 years at hogwarts and then open another stuff after that,it could work

[hearty tangle]

Making the game multiplayer will only ruin it. You are asking for microtransactions to be in the game

Co-op is a fine compromise. But an mmo would suck

[warm sorrel]

not this one

[indigo brook]

agree

[umbral fox]

Also I hope the game won't be too complex in terms of where everything is and upgrading stuff etc. (such as destiny 2, marvel's avengers they're way too complex to upgrade stuff imo)

[karmic heath]

Nah they could only have cosmetics like fortnite

[umbral fox]

^

[warm sorrel]

well,you have some timers on stuff

[karmic heath]

No game advantage

[hearty tangle]

Warner Bros is publishing this game

[umbral fox]

It won't stop there tbh

[hearty tangle]

I guarantee you an MMO by Warner Bros will be microtransactions hell

[warm sorrel]

so true

[karmic heath]

So like pay to win stuff?

[indigo brook]

i hope it too. Im afraid it could be as assassins creed vallhalla. That kind of rpg is overwhelmed

[hearty tangle]

exactly

[umbral fox]

Warner Bros. cancelling Hogwarts Legacy for tax write-offs 💀

[warm sorrel]

look what they did to shadow of mordor

[karmic heath]

I hear that

[warm sorrel]

it was a pain sometimes

[karmic heath]

Idk i think the game should be co op maybe not multiplayer

You know like dying light staying human

[warm sorrel]

co-op would work

[karmic heath]

Idk id you guys have played that but thats got a good co op

[warm sorrel]

nowdays some games miss that

yhea it is

[umbral fox]

I agree, maybe like 4 people max

[warm sorrel]

Biomutant could benefit from that to

[hearty tangle]

This game was designed to be SINGLE player from the moment it started development in 2017. You would have to change a lot of the game designs to make it multiplayer.
Co-op would require WAY less work

[umbral fox]

that would be fun as hell ngl

[umbral fox]

They could have hidden it tbh

[karmic heath]

Yeah agreed

[warm sorrel]

let us see,it is unreal engine,so modding it for co op can be done

[karmic heath]

I just hope its hella interactive

[hearty tangle]

I'd rather have them make an entire separate game in the wizarding world to be an MMO

rather than trying to make hogwarts legacy multiplayer

[karmic heath]

True i just dont wanna wait another 5 years 🤣🤣

[umbral fox]

The timing tho 💀

Unreal Engine 5 is basically brand new and they skipped it

[warm sorrel]

true

[hearty tangle]

Single player game mechanics just wont work in an MMO thats the problem lol

would have to rework everything

[warm sorrel]

but it was already on development

and changing it to unreal 5 woud take some more time

the feutures they have on engine 5 are great

for fast development

[hearty tangle]

Thats why i always said that if Avalanche wants to make a sequel to this game. Thats when they can use UE5

[umbral fox]

Although I'm not sure what UE5 is performance-wise

[warm sorrel]

they already planing that for sure

[hearty tangle]

Well if you use UE5 you have to abandon last gen consoles completely

[warm sorrel]

it is very great on performance

[hearty tangle]

It would have to be only on PC, PS5/Xbox Series X/S

[warm sorrel]

it is bound to happen

but unreal engine is very portable across the plataforms

you can tweak almost everything

the streaming of the world is another thing

that depends on read write speeds

[hearty tangle]

This game is going to be on Nintendo Switch as well

which is why I don't expect top notch graphics

[warm sorrel]

you gonna have some blurry textures for sure

[frozen nova]

I don't think it is gonna be good graphics just on that console alone.

[warm sorrel]

but the game will be there

they can use Amd fidelity

that is what i am betting they did

[hearty tangle]

Even on current gen consoles/PC i don't expect this game to have the best looking graphics

[warm sorrel]

dont seem so

[hearty tangle]

Not like horizon forbidden west level of graphics

[warm sorrel]

but it does its job

[umbral fox]

It seems fine graphics to me, I care more about the balance between fps and graphics

[warm sorrel]

horizon has one of the best gaming engines i have seen

[hearty tangle]

Yea I'd gladly sacrifice a little graphic fidelity for constant 60fps any day

[finite lion]

I care about story

[warm sorrel]

yhea,dont care much about graphics as long the gameplay is fun

[hearty tangle]

I think the graphics are already amazing as it is. Especially the environment

[warm sorrel]

yhea,it looks great

[frozen nova]

If we can ride beasts, we be happy

[hearty tangle]

The characters and animation could use some work but its not terrible

[warm sorrel]

i am more interested in seing Switch version,but just becouse i am an tech guy

after the witcher 3,i expect anything

[karmic heath]

Do you think the brooms and mounts will be the same speed

[humble sequoia]

ye i can imagine the open world being like w3

[warm sorrel]

I hope so

I intend to spend a lot of time with the game

They seem to know what they are doing with this

[frozen nova]

I will assume the mounts are more faster than the brooms.

I think the brooms will only be more important in its sport-game.

[warm sorrel]

Woulndt make sense

[karmic heath]

Yeah i hope just the way they say cosmetic makes me think it wont give you an advantage

And i wonder when u can use them if theres certain areas etc

Actually nvm i just remembered its not multiplayer

[frozen nova]

We'll see when we can

[karmic heath]

So no real advantage is given tbh

[wooden oxide]

Ok, what’s this section for as opposed to the ‘general’ section above? The rest of the Potter world?

[frozen nova]

My passion

Ayo

[red moat]

Most likely, looking at the footage of the Thestral it looks very much like it controls like the broom did in the SOP. So they are most likely all interchangable ways of transport. Maybe they have different stats, but I doubt there will be much

[hasty junco]

Anyone else taking 10th Feb as annual leave? 😋

[frozen nova]

Ain't sure if that's the case for me

[wooden oxide]

Boss’ son baby!

[karmic heath]

Thought it came out the 20th

[jaunty spruce]

Good morning, anyone have link pre order game pc ?

[hearty tangle]

10th feb. 7th feb is early access for those that buy the deluxe/digital deluxe edition

[warm sorrel]

@hasty junco me all week

[red moat]

Well 7th probably

[karmic heath]

Ahhhh

[thorny chasm]

[frozen nova]

Likewise

[hasty junco]

I wouldnt mind the digital deluxe edition but I'm a poor gurl, so 10th it is 😅

[red moat]

10th is a friday anyway, so unless it drops early in the day (which usually isn't the care in Europe) I wouldn't even have to take the day off

[wooden oxide]

And the 20th is for those of us who are going to wait for the reviews, like sensible people. All these years and you all still trust the gaming industry?

[red moat]

Deluxe is like 10$ extra

[frozen nova]

Don't care if I will become broke afterwards. I will play happy.

[mossy inlet]

Brooms are for normal travel too, and how it looks like it will be the same speed

[hearty tangle]

I am going to play this game regardless of how it turns out. So i dont care about reviews

[hasty junco]

Oh what, is that all? I thought it was £££. In that case I'm doing it

[hearty tangle]

Not everyone is willing to wait either

[wooden oxide]

Fair enough. I’d still rather wait for them to patch out the bugs.

[red moat]

Collectors is like 300, but Deluxe as far as I know is only 10$ more

[wooden oxide]

What’s Deluxe get you?

[hasty junco]

Cheers, will see when they release in the UK

[red moat]

72 hours early access, a mount and an outfit

[wooden oxide]

If it’s a bunch of Day 1 DLC, I’m not getting it on principle.

[wanton trail]

🤣🤣

[wanton trail]

That’s fair but I would still get on

[hasty junco]

Only 168 days guys

[wooden oxide]

… So it’s a small cosmetic pack and the privilege of being a beta tester?

[mossy inlet]

Simple edition marketing and alright for 10 dollars

[red moat]

If you think 72 hours is beta, then sure

[wanton trail]

I’m exciteeeddd

[mossy inlet]

One mount would cost you 30 dollars in other games alone, this is normal marketing and is really fine for all you get

[wooden oxide]

It’s a lot of time for a lot of people to find a lot of bugs for them to patch. So yeah.

[mossy inlet]

The game has no microtransactions so im fine

[red moat]

A mount for 10$ is still expensive in relation to everything in the game

[hasty junco]

Me too 🥰 this is the only channel I will be involved in for like a week upon release, all other socials will be muted😆

[wooden oxide]

That is a colossal plus.

[wanton trail]

Which is the best part for me at least

[red moat]

but I just want to play the game, and I want more HP games so I don't mind paying a bit extra to support the project

seems like a win / win to me

[mossy inlet]

Exactly, but it could be so much worse that's what im saying

[wanton trail]

Facts I don’t need nothing spoiled or “OMG I FOUND THIS BOSS”

[thorny chasm]

:Gryffindor: :Slytherin: :Ravenclaw: :Hufflepuff:

Why

[wanton trail]

[hasty junco]

Bound to happen 😅

[wooden oxide]

This doesn’t seem like the best place to go for no spoilers. 🤔

[wanton trail]

Honestly 🤣

[wooden oxide]

Actually… maybe a ‘no spoilers’ thread should be set up for the release.

[hasty junco]

I am gonna be soooo immersed

[red moat]

They are going to make channels specifically for spoiler content I'm pretty sure

so you can probably yoink out of those if you don't want spoilers

[wanton trail]

I know but I’m sure they set something up to prevent it

[wooden oxide]

Wait, are they threads on discord or channels?

[hasty junco]

Channels but same thing lol

[red moat]

You can have both

[hasty junco]

Oh

[red moat]

Channels can have threads

[wooden oxide]

Maybe we should suggest it just in case they haven’t thought of it.

[wanton trail]

I think they have a suggestion box somewhere in here

[wooden oxide]

Cool

[red moat]

If you look at the top where the pins are, you can also see a button for threads

[gritty island]

3 hours !!!

[red moat]

though I think they are created by the mods in this discord, so it's easier for them to manage

[wooden oxide]

Three hours?

[gritty island]

Till pre orders are available

[wooden oxide]

Ah

[gritty island]

Reality of us getting closer to release lol

[lapis edge]

Do we know the price of the collectors edition?

[gritty island]

300 dollars

[wanton trail]

$300

[lapis edge]

oh my

[red moat]

Not worth

[wooden oxide]

In Pounds.

[lapis edge]

yeah

its so cool but not 300 dollars cool

[gritty island]

I’m going with the digital deluxe

[hasty junco]

Is it 3 hours until available for us in UK too? If so, that's dangerous cos it's pay day

[wooden oxide]

Collector’s editions rarely are.

[gritty island]

Available worldwide @hasty junco

[wooden oxide]

I’d assume so…

[red moat]

I've only ever bought one second hand, so aye

[hearty tangle]

Preorders open in 2hours 48 minutes for all platforms everywhere

[hasty junco]

Eeee I'm gonna burst

[wooden oxide]

GOTY editions with all the DLC tends to be what I’ll open my wallet for.

[hasty junco]

Pc gamers, are you ordering on steam?

[gritty island]

Can’t believe how beautiful hogwarts looks in game

[wooden oxide]

By the way, what about Quidditch as a DLC?

[wooden oxide]

The day the universe implodes.

[red moat]

Probably, yeah. Epic would support the devs more, but I figure by buying the deluxe I'm already supporting them extra so, yolo. I launch steam more often anyway

[wanton trail]

Yes

[wooden oxide]

If I can’t get on GoG, I’ll get a console version or pirate the damn thing. But Steam?! Never.

[hasty junco]

Yeah same, think I will go with that

[red moat]

Totally depends on the game for me

[hasty junco]

Why not?

[wooden oxide]

Well yeah, they actually have to be good games with good DLC for it to be worth it. 🤣

[hasty junco]

I like epic, they provide good customer support but I launch steam more often 🤷‍♀️

[wooden oxide]

Steam’s sold me multiple broken games in the past.

[red moat]

Don't think it's gonna be on gog, looks like Epic Store and Steam so far

[wooden oxide]

I’ve actually haven’t tried Epic. Maybe for this, I’ll actually download it.

[red moat]

I like epic because they support the devs more by taking less of a cut

but the launcher is slow

and the UI is unintuitive

[wooden oxide]

How slow?

[red moat]

Slow enough for it to bother me, but not slow enough that it's a deal breaker

[wooden oxide]

Hm…

[red moat]

plus they only take a 12% cut of purchases rather than the 30% that Steam takes

[humble sequoia]

Who wouldnt get it on steam. Epic imho is not nice to use

[elfin rampart]

I wonder if we’ll get the thursday clip still

[humble sequoia]

True

[wooden oxide]

By the way, the mount they give with the Deluxe is technically an ‘Onyx Hippogriff mount.’

[red moat]

but they are also using unreal engine, so buying on steam, 35% of the proceeds will go to Steam(30) and Epic(5), while on epic it will just be the 12% to Epic.

[wooden oxide]

So that basically guarantees it being a different skin for the regular Thestral.

[elfin rampart]

unless you don’t pre-order

[red moat]

Wasn't it Onyx Hippogriff

[wooden oxide]

Precisely.

[red moat]

that's a pre-order thing, so if you pre-order you get that

the Thestral is only available through deluxe, can't get it in the normal game

[elfin rampart]

I mean there’s still Thestrals in the base game tho

[wooden oxide]

Of course! Why would you ask?? 👀

[red moat]

Yeah, but you can't ride them

[elfin rampart]

true

[mossy inlet]

For me the animations and overall the flying looks cooler on the hippogriff, he is bigger and has a longer animation with his wings etc. the thestral is different but still looking good because hes so different

[red moat]

I'll just fly on a broom, that's the coolest to me 😅

[hasty junco]

Wonder if there will be a benefit of faster flying speed on the thestral?

[mossy inlet]

Same! I will use both pretty much tbh

[mossy inlet]

It will be the same speed for all I guess

It's only cosmetic, so they aren't selling a mount that is faster then all other

[hasty junco]

Yeah good point

[worldly palm]

Good day chat

[red moat]

From what they have said it is purely cosmetic

[elfin rampart]

[hasty junco]

Naw. And it's not like we can show it off in game to other players either 😅

[red moat]

Nah, the deluxe seems to heavily be catered to people who are interested in 'the dark arts'

but I just want it for the 72 hours tbh

[warm sorrel]

Same,72 hours early

[red moat]

idc about any of the other stuff in there

[wooden oxide]

Which leads into an interesting question: how fast are brooms going to be in the 1800s?

How fast was the Nimbus 2000?

[elfin rampart]

yes

[worldly palm]

yes

[wooden oxide]

Yes? To what?

[wooden oxide]

All these years later and they still default to: “Make it goth.” I do love being pandered to. 🤣

[edgy moth]

It was rumoured to be going 100mph. Sooooo brooms in 1800 are a little less fast probably 😂

[wooden oxide]

Not all that much really…

[red moat]

Being a single player game you can probably get all of these things as mods a few weeks after release

[wooden oxide]

I mean an Aston from the 60s could do 145.

[wooden oxide]

True and they’ll probably work better too. 🤣

[wide tusk]

Good morning. Hoping to pre-order the collectors edition this morning!

[indigo brook]

hi

whens the preorder

[red moat]

2 hours

[summer hollow]

Wow, haven't checked in on the game in quite some time, nice to see a release date finally! Just bummed I noticed it is no longer and MMO, I could have sworn it was advertised as an MMORPG. Did that change or was that never a think?

[indigo brook]

do you know where do we have to preorder?

[indigo brook]

i think its mostly mmorpg

[red moat]

It was never an MMO

It's always been a single player rpg

[spiral mica]

The collectors edition was a huge disappointment to be honest. And it’s very overpriced and you don’t get anything of value of that price. I doubt many people will buy it. They should add more items to it so you’d actually get something of value.

The wand looks very cheap

[indigo brook]

hi people do you know where to preorder

[lapis edge]

Depends on what version you want to get

[abstract sierra]

Do u know guys what's the price of each edition?

[lapis edge]

collectors will be 300 dollars

[left maple]

hello

[abstract sierra]

And digital deluxe?

[lapis edge]

im not sure

I think 80 or 70 dollars

[indigo brook]

i want to preorder deluxe edition but dont know where

[lapis edge]

You can do it on steam

Or epic games

[indigo brook]

but i want it from ps4

for*

[lapis edge]

I guess in the Ps store

you can pre order in 1 hour and 45 min

[indigo brook]

there is nothing announcing the preorder in ps store

i am afraid ill lose my chance to preorder

i cant find any official information

[lapis edge]

You have 6 more months to pre order it will be okay

[hasty junco]

odd, steam doesn't have a countdown for the pre-order

[indigo brook]

official twitter account said we could preorder at official website

[hasty junco]

doesnt mention it at all

[indigo brook]

but theres nothing announcing there either

[indigo brook]

thats what im saying

[indigo brook]

yeh but ill lose the advantages

that skin is rubbish but if i could get it for free...

[grizzled crystal]

Do we pre order from steam or website? Is the code in the collectors a steam code?

[silver oasis]

Anyone seen how much the collectors edition is?

[wooden oxide]

Free rubbish is still rubbish.

[indigo brook]

anyone can see a countdown at the official website?

[wooden oxide]

I’ll give you this rancid banana peel… for free. Are you going to thank me or throw it at me?

[indigo brook]

in spanish website there is no information

[indigo brook]

yeh whatever id like to preorder today

[indigo brook]

its about 300 bucks

[silver oasis]

You can pre order today all pre orders for all editions start today

[grizzled crystal]

In 2 hours iirc

[indigo brook]

but WHERE

thats the problem

[silver oasis]

@indigo brook they need to add alot more for people to pay for what's I that bundle

[indigo brook]

theres no information in any site

[wooden oxide]

Why? There’s no difference between pre-ordering now or five months from now. So chill my friend.

[royal nebula]

Collectors edition price is an absolute joke

[wooden oxide]

Absolutely

[wooden oxide]

Like I say, wait it out for the GOTY or Ultimate editions with all the dlc.

[silver oasis]

@wooden oxide no game art or soundtracks no nothing for collector buyers either

[indigo brook]

but goty edition wont be released at least until the end of 2023 right

[royal nebula]

@wooden oxide I might have to. Close to $300 for that? The collectors edition is maybe worth $120

[wooden oxide]

It’s targeted at the moronic super fans. And there’s no shortage of them in this fandom.

[twin halo]

lads its not a bad price

[royal nebula]

Was low key hoping if enough people complained they would lower it.

[indigo brook]

dont think so

[silver oasis]

@royal nebula they've really missed their market affordability wise for the collectors edition

[grizzled crystal]

Who said it's going to have goty? You have to win it first 🤣

[royal nebula]

Cus it’s not worth that at all. @indigo brook I mean yeah haha but one could be hopeful

[spiral mica]

I’d say about 115 $ max

[wooden oxide]

Honestly, I’ve never seen much point in all that stuff either. I mean, maybe I’ll shell out a few extra Pounds for a nice map but that’s because I’m a geography geek.

[royal nebula]

Specially in todays world? Like cmon who can afford that

You could easily go to Etsy and find similar stuff for cheaper and better quality. Just a shame really. I feel like they missed the mark a lot

[indigo brook]

anyway, does anyone know whats the price for preorder? standard edition is only 3 bucks

[wooden oxide]

It’s probably going to. Is anything else major coming out next year?

[spiral mica]

Most disappointing collectors edition ever

[indigo brook]

completely true

[twin halo]

if you consider the implications of the game
Singleplayer
NO P2W
No microtransactions whatsoever
A passionate community team that will strive to improve the game going forward
DLC (Rumors)
an awesome community

the company wont make money after the game is released (except for dlc) so i think 300 is not an unfair price

[mossy inlet]

Because of todays world it's like that, you don't need to buy it and you can buy other wizarding world stuff. It's sad but you will spare some money at least

[indigo brook]

god of war

[wooden oxide]

Reeks of: they told us last minute we needed a collectors edition

[spiral mica]

Fr lol

[wooden oxide]

Oh damn! Is that next year??

[twin halo]

November

[indigo brook]

this september

[royal nebula]

Honestly I don’t even remember what big games are coming next year. Haven’t heard much so hogwarys has a chance

[indigo brook]

but could be next year goty

[royal nebula]

Hogwarts*

[wooden oxide]

Then… It’s a different GOTY competition.

[mossy inlet]

I am a big wizarding world fan, but botw 2 will take goty, not only because of the whole world liking it, but because of the reviewers too. Hl is a new game and it will have problems and won't take that

[twin halo]

personally, legend of zelda isn't good anymore

[royal nebula]

I feel like legacy would win goty if they added multiplayer in some shape.

[twin halo]

no it wouldnt

[indigo brook]

no chance for adding multiplayer

[twin halo]

when do multiplayer games win GOTY

[wooden oxide]

Hm… Zelda fans vs Harry Potter fans. That’s even odds for my money.

[royal nebula]

Imagine an open world wizarding world game multiplayer. Obviously lots of complications

[indigo brook]

would be a single player game

[wooden oxide]

No.

[royal nebula]

And yes true multiplayers never win goty but ya never know

[mossy inlet]

Like I said not only the fans, but reviewers too. Botw 1 was bombed with 10/10 the whole time, if botw 2 is even better, there is no way for hl to take that place

[royal nebula]

The only multiplayer way this game could add I think is dueling?

[twin halo]

as soon as an online aspect is put in, it breeds toxicity, nobody wants that

[royal nebula]

@twin halo ya true

[mossy inlet]

But I would wish for Hl to take goty don't get me wrong, i'm just speaking about the whole thing

[royal nebula]

I think dueling or doing certain quests with friends would be cool. Idk what the point of having different dueling arenas is for if you can duel others? Maybe I’m missing something lol

Cant*

[twin halo]

more than likely for practising spells

horde mode per say

[royal nebula]

Hmm maybe

Oh I had a Harry Potter gender reveal this past weekend! Was pretty cool! Had the sorting hat with a smoke bomb and a colored onesies under it to show the gender. We’re having a witch! Haha

[twin halo]

Congratulations!

i hope you didn't start any forrest fires

[royal nebula]

Haha no of course not! And thank you!

[twin halo]

you're wery velcome

[royal nebula]

Alright fellow witches and wizards, gonna head out for some coffee. Take care all

[spiral mica]

Imagine buying collectors edition

[eager iris]

does anyone know if pre orders will be on steam for pc?

[lapis edge]

Yes

[spiral mica]

It will

[eager iris]

ok thanks :9

i just had to ask i will be at work

[native compass]

When will the game be available for purchase?

[lapis edge]

1 hour and 30 minutes

1 hour and 7 min!*

[native compass]

already have the value?

[uneven pagoda]

Do we know if there will be different stories for the four houses? Beside the different companions

[verbal vault]

I am so ready!

[dreamy granite]

Ready to break my wallet getting this deluxe package🌚

[verbal vault]

Right! I am redoing my office in a Harry Potter theme and the book and wand will go nicely!

[native compass]

what is the package?

[lapis edge]

300 dollars!

^for collectors is insane

[native compass]

no

[dreamy granite]

You get a thestral and hipogriff mount plus an outfit plus purchasing the game

[lapis edge]

what no?

[native compass]

But what's in the collection?

[lapis edge]

an floating wand on a book

[humble sequoia]

game only release on 02/10/2023.... 🤨

[lapis edge]

an\d the game

[native compass]

but the mount I don't conquer within the game?

[spring pine]

hey guy

[native compass]

but will they deliver at home? I don't understand I don't know the details

[dreamy granite]

I don't know, I just know what the package entails

[verbal vault]

You can only get the Thestral and the Hippogriff though the deluxe and collectors editions, I believe is what they said at the Gamescon event.

[spring pine]

so the edition thing spread to the general too?

[lapis edge]

Yes

[uneven pagoda]

Will it be available outside the US?

[verbal vault]

I would assume so.

[wide tusk]

I hope so I'm hoping to pre-order it at gamestop this morning when they open

[verbal vault]

Its been here since the announcement

[spring pine]

yehh ppl just say about the pre order and stuff like that so i got nothing to say about it

[verbal vault]

I would do it online... I am hoping that there is not a limited number of them. If I have to go to the store there is a GameStop 5 min from me.

[wide tusk]

I don't like pre-ordering online if I have to I will but I'm going to try in store first. 🇨🇦

[verbal vault]

I totally understand!

[mossy inlet]

The collectors edition is limited, every other edition not.

[raw fox]

I don’t see it even listed on sites

[verbal vault]

So online and fast is the name of the game!

[mossy inlet]

Pre orders are up in an hour, on the official hogwarts legacy site they will have links to retailers

[mossy inlet]

Exactly, good luck!

[spring pine]

oh no the deluxe edition stuff have spread all over the server

[raw fox]

That’s helpful

Thanks guys!

[verbal vault]

It won't be until 8am PST

[mossy inlet]

You are welcome

[verbal vault]

thank you! You too

[wide tusk]

Or if you get to your gamestop and are first I'm sure you will get it that way too.

[native compass]

only have two modes? Collector's and normal? Or will there be others too?

[wide tusk]

As far as I know there's normal, deluxe and collectors edition

[mossy inlet]

Standard, deluxe and collectors

[spring pine]

i will buy a special one

nothing:D

[mossy inlet]

Well that is a option too lol

[spring pine]

i just making myself a viewer

can't make a gamer now

[scenic monolith]

LOL

[mossy inlet]

Some people like it more to watch people play rather playing himself

[spring pine]

sign me for that

i mostly watch ppl play cuz no money ofc

[hasty junco]

i'm sure loooads of people will be streaming on twitch 🙂 ngl i'm a rubbish gamer so will be doing both lol

[spring pine]

hmmm you can play the game it will lucky for you

there many other ppl can't offer the game

[mossy inlet]

I did that too when I was young, and I still watch sometimes people play something! So all good

[karmic heath]

Wheres the deluxe stuff

[spring pine]

yeh all good

[mossy inlet]

Pre orders go live in an hour

[karmic heath]

Ahh okay ty

[humble sequoia]

whats about Nintendo Switch Release Date 😦

[hasty junco]

aw hopefully it's something you can ask for as a birthday/xmas/celebration gift

[spring pine]

well sometimes i feel out of place when i'm different from everyone while i try to fit in something with everyone but i don't succeed

like in #💬hogwarts-legacy-general

[hasty junco]

my brain is torn rn, i'm super stressed and busy with work but also excited for 4pm

[mossy inlet]

Updates about the switch coming soon

[spring pine]

no no no it's too expensive for me when i just wish i could study well

I just don't want my family to be burdened with money again

[humble sequoia]

Ok 😦

How many Days can I preorder the deluxe edition ?

[hasty junco]

i understand, maybe you will be able to get it on a sale at some point ❤️

[mossy inlet]

If you want to buy it for switch you will need to wait for updates as the switch version will release later then the original release date

But pre orders go live in an hour and it depends on your platform

[humble sequoia]

How many Days can I preorder the deluxe edition ?

[mossy inlet]

Pre orders are going live in an hour

[humble sequoia]

and how long ?

[mossy inlet]

And you can pre order till the release on february

So you can also pre order 1 day before it comes out

[spring pine]

thank you❤️

[humble sequoia]

because i want the extras from deluxe edition but have no money at the moment i get it on next mon th 5th

[mossy inlet]

No stress, you have 5 months to pre order

[spring pine]

yeh that time will quick for me

[mossy inlet]

5 months go by fast

Time always goes by fast, even if you don't think it does

[wide tusk]

True

[spring pine]

well i think i will be different from everyone for couple of month, like everyone is talking about deluxe edition something but i don't know that and have nothing to say about it

I guess I'd like people to at least talk about something interesting in HL

[mossy inlet]

People are talking only about pre orders because it is getting available right now, after that it will get silent again till another update. And there are other things you could do that time goes by

[spring pine]

yeh guess i'm only wish that over

[violet vigil]

if theres a thestral mount in the Deluxe edition. Can you still Get it in the game from playing?

[austere beacon]

Does anybody know if the digital deluxe edition is por pc too?

[violet vigil]

seems very sussy to me if you cant unlock it by playing

[spring pine]

If you think so, maybe someone will deliver one Thestral to your house?

[mossy inlet]

It is an extra cosmetic for pre orders, ingame is everything free and there will be many outfits and animals you will be able to fly.

[violet vigil]

ohh

so it’s just a cosmetic

[mossy inlet]

Exactly

[violet vigil]

💀 that’s even worse

[mossy inlet]

No it is better because no one has an advantage, again they are only skins that are items outside of the game, it doesnt take a place away from all the things you will be able to get ingame.

[spring pine]

If you think you can't get it in the game, do you think they will deliver you a thestral to your door :))

[mossy inlet]

And because of that you don't need to buy it, you have no disadvantage from that and you will have the same fun without it.

[spring pine]

even it standard edition you can still mount a pure white Hippogriff

[abstract haven]

its also not an online game so it wont mean much

[mossy inlet]

You will be able to do many things, these cosmetics are just a small extra that you can get if you like it.

[broken turret]

Hello everyone 👋

[violet vigil]

what are you even SAYING?

[spring pine]

yes but some special editions make the game even more interesting

[spring pine]

oh don't mention it

not an insult but at least use some smart brain you buy deluxe edition then it will find in the game

[abstract haven]

tbh the only reason i want the delux version is for the extra 72 hours

[violet vigil]

I simply asked if I could get that same cosmetic without paying actual real money, by grinding in the game

[humble sequoia]

i thgink the deluxe edition is the best if you want some extra bonus 😄

[abstract haven]

no

[violet vigil]

THANK YOU

[abstract haven]

its just a cosmetic

there will be plenty others

[violet vigil]

[humble sequoia]

i need this game now 😦

[finite lion]

Okay

[abstract haven]

id rather have the game when its finished

[broken turret]

It's great that there aren't going to be microtransactions

[light crescent]

Today launches the prices of the game on steam?

[broken turret]

I think, also I've checked the ps5 store and it isn't available yet

[abstract haven]

its getting released american time

[light crescent]

It will be like 8 PT

[violet vigil]

did they announce you can pre order just the base game too or just Deluxe editions?

[broken turret]

Probably PT time though rn I'm in MTN time

[tranquil shard]

[light crescent]

Now it's 07:42 Pt

[raw fox]

It’s def a question of is this wand worth it

[broken turret]

👍

[mossy inlet]

There is only the game, the deluxe edition and collectors. Again, you don't need to buy the cosmetics

[tranquil shard]

its tough to spot anything good in it
except that it floats

thank god

[cerulean geode]

anyone know how much the collectors edition is?

[tranquil shard]

300 usd

[violet vigil]

Yeah i’m not going to if they’re crazy expensive

[mossy inlet]

The deluxe edition is for the money and things the best for me yes

[slow lagoon]

300 dollars

[mossy inlet]

The deluxe is only 10 dollars more.

[cerulean geode]

well i aint getting the colletors one then

[violet vigil]

oh well that’s not too bad

[tranquil shard]

yep
i can do fine without a kelpie robe and a floaty wand

[cerulean geode]

and base game?

[mossy inlet]

Yeah

[broken turret]

I hope that it has like a Black Flag level of addictiveness

[light crescent]

I belive it will be around 70 dol the first version

[tranquil shard]

i think its gonna be pretty engaging

[mossy inlet]

Same, there will be more then enough outfits in game, and you can buy a wodden wand at different sites

[supple garnet]

Is preorder going to be available everywhere?

[broken turret]

I heard a rumor of $75

[tranquil shard]

yep

[mossy inlet]

Pretty much yes

[abstract haven]

in 15mins

[native compass]

the common version?

[spring pine]

omg my god, i know how expensive now

[native compass]

the common versionw

?

[light crescent]

Yes

[sand forge]

its the final countdown!

[candid shell]

Where do we preorder the collectors edition?

[slow lagoon]

Yup

[broken turret]

Yes it has been rumored to be $75 on console for standard edition

[spring pine]

the 300 USD in my country is like: 7 milion VND

[slow lagoon]

Oh my

[native compass]

and pc?

[light crescent]

But normally on the console it's more expensive

[sand forge]

ooga booga caveman excitement

[winged trellis]

do we buy it on playstation directly or the actual legacy site

[broken turret]

I can only assume the same process for PC but console manufacturers spike up prices when they are on the console

[verbal vault]

It is supposed to be $60 for older consoles, $70 for the new consoles for the basic. Then an additional $10 for the deluxe and digital versions. So old consoles $70 and new consoles $80.

[winged trellis]

hopefully its not like another cyberpunk or avengers 😦

[broken turret]

It's not going to be bc UE5 will come in clutch

[winged trellis]

thank god

[humble sequoia]

i wnat to buy for switch what is better digital version or i go in a store and buy the cardrige

Me just waiting on the website like 👁👄👁

[broken turret]

one of the first REAL games to be using UE5

[winged trellis]

i would get the cartridge

[wild niche]

[light crescent]

I'm creating a lot of expectations, I hope I'm not disappointed

[winged trellis]

are we getting it directly from the website or through our console website

[broken turret]

We don't know the switch release date yet sadly

[hidden dirge]

I believe it’s through the actual website

[humble sequoia]

and were i preorder it if it is availble

[thick gazelle]

10 more minutes

[verbal vault]

Switch is being released at a later date.

[winged trellis]

im not sure, but check with gamestop if you have it\

[broken turret]

The rumor is it will be a stream only game on switch so that would be a later decision to want to make

[winged trellis]

theyre not gonna run out of preorders right

[broken turret]

No.

[hidden dirge]

I’d steer clear of the switch version imo - there’s no way it’s going to run well

[winged trellis]

yeah im not sure how good itll be, i would wait till reviews come out for it.

[native compass]

[humble sequoia]

but iut will be to fast sold out i think we nhave to buy it online as digital i think.....

[broken turret]

It will either be on low settings at a locked 30fps or streaming at regular but having input delay and being restricted of location

[humble sequoia]

so i need a very good wifi connection right ? 😄

[native compass]

8min

[broken turret]

Indeed, If the theory is correct about streaming

[hidden dirge]

Look at the Kingdom Hearts switch games - gross

[broken turret]

So no playing on the bus or train if it is stream only
