[twin halo]

Real GOTY contender I'd say

[gloomy gust]

The broom flying looked fantastic, genuinely amazing. The animations looked quite nice and I was especially fond of the slow down animation.

[twin halo]

Just want to say I love the development team, unfortunately they won't see this, but like fair play, you've made a world feel incredibly alive.

[novel notch]

the hippogriff flying looked very good too imo

[twin halo]

I think it was wonderful!

[gloomy gust]

They did a really good job of making the two look different and unique.

So many other development teams would've just copy pasted the flying mechanics from the broom

[coarse oriole]

From the open world flight, anyone else feel like the flying ruins it? Cover so much land in a couple of minutes that it basically looks small?

[brisk nebula]

But it is, what Avada Kedavra does.

[brave mesa]

I am in such a positive shock after seeing this showcase. It looks like all my dreams from watching Harry Potter as a child are coming true. When I first played the Harry Potter games I dreamt of a game that had an open world that I could live in. Being able to fly, explore the world or create your own wishing room is amazing. The animals are amazing. I'm already looking forward to immersing myself in this world and forgetting my problems, at least for a while. At this point I would like to write a THANK YOU. ❤

[gloomy gust]

No, I disagree. We only saw a small portion of the world and that was after flying around for 10 minutes continuously. I think the world is plenty large and will still feel big even with flying.

[heady charm]

Is the game coming out mulitplayer aswell?

[gloomy gust]

no

singleplayer only

[heady charm]

I will not give up high hopes

[gloomy gust]

Thats cool but its been confirmed single player only

best chance would be a mod

[heady charm]

Ok, ty for a quick responds

[novel notch]

multiplayer mod? Idk if tht'll work

[gloomy gust]

np

[gloomy gust]

Skyrim has a multiplayer mod. It might take 10 years but modders could do it.

and it works well btw.

[novel notch]

oh well then

nice

[vapid radish]

Imagine having quidditch ranked

[gloomy gust]

I mean, quidditch would have to first be added.

[novel notch]

maybe in a dlc 😭

me being delusional

[gloomy gust]

we can only hope, not interested in it myself but ik alot of other people are.

[mossy sentinel]

After rewatching that gameplay showcase in 4K good lord hogwarts looks good

The coat physics are on point

[gloomy gust]

couldnt agree more, look absolutely fantastic

[mossy sentinel]

Indeed it does

[gloomy gust]

I have a feeling though that this is going to be one of those games people use to benchmark pcs for the next 3 to 5 years

kinda like how gta 5 was

bc it looks phenomonal

I can't imagine itll be easy to get it running at 60 fps on max settings.

[mossy sentinel]

This game will honestly be my first introduction into the wizarding world. The announcement trailer captured my attention and todays showcase sold me

[cold sierra]

I loved that gameplay

[mossy sentinel]

I preordered the deluxe two days ago for PS5 I’m honestly hyped

[cold sierra]

Same oh damn it’s you

It’s been awhile

[halcyon monolith]

i preordered for pc

[devout arch]

pre-ordered for PC on august

[dry talon]

im gunna preorder on xmas hopefully :D

[mossy sentinel]

It has. I just recognized you as well. It’s great to hear from you again @cold sierra

[mossy sentinel]

Nice!

[cold sierra]

Same here

[brave mesa]

Hey everyone, I would like some advice. I have a computer that has a Geforce 1060 6gb graphics card, for the minimum requirements Hogwarts Legacy I need a 1070 8gb card. But the developers also indicated that the requirements are to play at 60 fps /1080p. Do you think I'll be able to play on my 1060 but at 30 -40 fps for example?

[novel notch]

maybe you'll be able to make it work by tweaking a few of the settings

[gloomy gust]

maybe at low settings, you should still be able to atleast play the game tho.

[brave mesa]

Thank you! ❤️

[zealous summit]

Not sure.

The 1080p 60 FPS thing isn't even 1080p. It's 'performance upscale setting'.
That's probably 720p or less.

So a 1070 to play at 60 FPS, low settings and 720p or lower.

[brave mesa]

On Steam it says yes: SSD (Preferred), HDD (Supported), 1080p/60 fps, Low Quality Settings, Upscale Performance Setting

[brisk nebula]

Too bad that my 1050 TI Laptop isn't meeting minimum requirements 😦

[cold sierra]

I might watch the rings of power

[brave mesa]

This information can be found below the lowest requirements of the game.

[brisk nebula]

Therefore, I hope we will get to play it via GeForce NOW Streaming services.

[river halo]

Just got a 1080 ti. Im so ready for this game!

[zealous summit]

Upscale Performance Setting = not real 1080p. It's being rendered at something lower and upscaled to 1080p (which looks worse than 1080p).

[novel notch]

maybe it'll still be playable

just with lower quality settings and fps

if u cant then you can refund the game on steam

always worth trying c:

[brisk nebula]

I do not plan to refund the game, I prefer purchasing a new laptop before refunding the game 😄

But they will definitely make it easier if it is available via GFN

[river halo]

Maybe it will be streamable on xbox gamepass

[brisk nebula]

That will work too.

If it streamable via Xbox Gamepass

[humble sequoia]

If you preorder the deluxe edition for ps4 on april 4 do you still get the dark arts stuff? I presume so but idk

[novel notch]

yep you should

[brave mesa]

Thank you all for your advice!

[humble sequoia]

Oh alr, thank you

[brisk nebula]

I think the Dark Arts is pretty much in the Deluxe Version so when you purchase Deluxe Edition, whenever, you still get it. Only pre-order stuff aren't available if you pre-order after the release date.

[cold sierra]

I want the console information

[brisk nebula]

I am pretty sure the game will be perfect on PSN, since it is developed specifically for PSN gear.

PS5 more specifically.

[mossy sentinel]

I think we’ll get that soon. Just by looking at hogwarts I don’t think it will have the Gotham knights situation

[river halo]

Lol. *holds lips

[cold sierra]

What about ps4

[river halo]

Just let him believe... Lol

[novel notch]

i think they're optimizing the game for the ps4 atm

[brisk nebula]

I am not sure if HL comes to PS4, but if it does, it will be still rendered as per the PS5 specifications and then lowered for the PS4.

[cold sierra]

The game was record in 30fps on console

[river halo]

Let himmm believeeee lol

[brisk nebula]

Uhm, there is a huge difference between actual gameplay and pre-rendered, pre-recorded video. Video cannot go higher than 30 FPS.

[mossy sentinel]

30 FPS only made no sense lol

[mossy sentinel]

Yeah most gameplay showcases also play at 30 to show off the graphics

[cold sierra]

Yes it can

[brisk nebula]

No it cannot. Read on it, pre-rendered and pre-recorded videos are tapped at 30 FPS maximum, in most cases even lower but in-game cases it is 30 FPS.

[cold sierra]

Not at all

[brisk nebula]

That is to keep the streaming quality high enough and to show graphics as the other Ghost said.

[cold sierra]

I bet another GK situation is possible

[brisk nebula]

It is not a huge problem if the game lacks performance, this can be upgraded after publication, the problem is fatal bugs which can take up to several months to fix.

But looking at the game so far, they seem to have cleared most of the bugs.

[cold sierra]

The gameplay was recorded in 60fps

So I’m betting 60fps for ps5 and 30 for ps4

[mossy sentinel]

That’s a safe bet

[brisk nebula]

You do know that PS5 has two performance options, one is 60 FPS the other is 30 FPS

[zealous summit]

I don't know if the PS5 footage was recorded in 60 FPS, it certainly wasn't running at 60 FPS. But the rest of the video was 60 FPS.

[humble sequoia]

Yea

[mossy sentinel]

30 for fidelity and 60 for performance most likely

[terse bridge]

idk

[humble sequoia]

I think so

If they have ray tracing that is

[cold sierra]

Not all games get two modes

[zealous summit]

I don't think there is ray-tracing in the game sadly. But it hasn't been confirmed as far as I'm aware.

[cold sierra]

Yep and 30fps on ps4

[brisk nebula]

I don't think that it would be wise to compare GK to HL, HL has took several times extra time to clear such issues. Performance issues are the least expected ones in their release.

[cold sierra]

Gotham knights had 5 years of development

[brisk nebula]

Didn't they mention that RTX isn't available in the game and they will be looking into it in the future?

[river halo]

You cant compare GK to HL. GK was so unoptimized.

[zealous summit]

🤷

[brisk nebula]

HL has under its belt 7 years so far, the first we heard about this game was around 2015.

Or was 2016, one of the two.

[mossy sentinel]

Hogwarts is one game I don’t mind playing at 30 to get the best possible graphics because it’s not a fast paced action type of game

[humble sequoia]

Then it will be 60fps on ps5

If no ray tracing is there then it’s 60 fps if there was that option then 30 fps

[zealous summit]

Yeah I'd be fine with 30 if I have to play at it. I'm going to max graphics no matter the frame rate.

[brisk nebula]

It takes around 7 years to create the perfect product, plus minus some bugs.

[cold sierra]

It was actually 2017

[cold sierra]

Same here

[novel notch]

maxing the graphics on ps4? o.o

[brisk nebula]

Yes, and we had Interface, character creation and probably starting map to some extend, that is at least 1 to 2 years productivity under the belt.

You create first the entire map based on scale, then you create characters from zero (graphic design) then you continue with UI design. Those takes time, minimum a year.

[cold sierra]

30fps on ps4 that’s what I’m expecting

[glass pecan]

morning

[cold sierra]

Morning

[river halo]

Most definitely 30fps on ps4. Maybe with some studders every once in a while

[cold sierra]

Exactly

I bet the crowd density will be way lower on the older consoles

[brisk nebula]

Isn't games usually 30 FPS for PS4? I am yet to hear a game with 60 FPS for PS4

[cold sierra]

GOWR was 60fps

[zealous summit]

PS4 will have PS4 mode which is 30 FPS.
PS5 will have the lower graphics and lower upscaled resolution 60 FPS mode, and a native 4k 30 FPS better graphics mode. At least based on how PS5 games have been so far.

[river halo]

Plenty of 60 fps games. Especially with ps4 pro

[cold sierra]

Also GOW 2018 😂😂

[zealous summit]

Doesn't it run very unstable?

[river halo]

Im a pc gamer and i know that 🤣

[cold sierra]

Nope

[zealous summit]

Like usually in the 40s or something.

[cold sierra]

It runs better on the pro

[brisk nebula]

Regardless this is just one game, compared to tons of games that came to PS4.

GOWR was an exception, all games on PS4 and PS4 Pro usually ran at 30 FPS up to 40-45 FPS but not 60 FPS.

What makes you think you will get 60 FPS with this one?

[zealous summit]

https://youtu.be/lek1S5bZWh4?t=840

[mossy sentinel]

PlayStation exclusives usually have the best optimization across platforms because of the amount of time and resources they have from Sony

[cold sierra]

I saw that

[cold sierra]

Agreed

[brisk nebula]

Exactly, that why I said that PS players should be good.

[river halo]

Im pretty sure some games actually run at 60 fps. But dont quote me.

[novel notch]

30fps rlly isnt too bad

[cold sierra]

I’m saying the ps4 version won’t run at 60fps 😂😂

[novel notch]

if games like horizon zero dawn can look and feel great while running smoothly on ps4 (at 30fps)

whats stopping HL

[rain mesa]

I must have a bad eye for detail because they look the exact same

[mossy sentinel]

Look at forbidden west and Ragnarok

[river halo]

Until you get on pc and really see the difference. I can always tell when a console game is running at 30 fps now 😦

[zealous summit]

The frame rate or the graphics/resolution?

[cold sierra]

I have a ps5 so I’m good 😌

[mossy sentinel]

Same

[rain mesa]

The graphics

[cold sierra]

I just ready for only next gen games

[mossy sentinel]

Man same here

[cold sierra]

Thank goodness for SSKTJL

[mossy sentinel]

Yep and Spider-Man 2

[river halo]

Im gonna be real too fps isnt something you really notice right away. You have to train your eyes. But once you go over 100fps and train your eyes and try to go to 30 fps.... Yuck lol

[heady charm]

Elo, Im a Huflepuff person

[brisk nebula]

Do you have PS5 purchased for it? 😄

[glass pecan]

ello

[novel notch]

samee :D

[heady charm]

You feel me

[cold sierra]

Not yet mate

[zealous summit]

Well unless you're watching the video full screen on a 4k display you're not going to get the detail they recorded, AND even if you did there's still YouTube compression. When I had a PS5 I tried performance and quality mode on Demon's Souls 2020 and the quality mode looked way better. The performance mode was really blurry in comparison. YouTube videos just aren't good at showing these things as they're easily hidden by the compression.

[silk ermine]

being used to a 120hz screen and suddenly having to use a 1080p 60hz monitor at work ™️

[cold sierra]

I’m hyped

[cold sierra]

I can tell the difference between 30 and 60

[mossy sentinel]

For me, hogwarts in February, Jedi survivor in March and suicide squad in May

[brisk nebula]

Wait isn't HL coming out March? 😄

[cold sierra]

No

[mossy sentinel]

No Jedi survivor is

[cold sierra]

Sounds like a good plan

[novel notch]

its coming out in february for pc, ps5 and the other new gen consoles

[mossy sentinel]

Indeed

[brisk nebula]

So I need to purchase it next month then. Good to know. I was planning to purchase it February

[cold sierra]

Hell yeah GK was a disappointment ngl

[zealous summit]

Buy it before 7th February so you can get it early, if you want the Deluxe edition.

[mossy sentinel]

Yeah I liked it but it didn’t live up to my personal standards

[cold sierra]

Same here

[rain mesa]

Well despite the difference in quality there’s no denying it’s amazing they can still make games look this great on a 10 year old console. Though it will be like a jet engine playing this lmao

[mossy sentinel]

Hogwarts actually looks like a cross gen game which is good but Gotham knights looks like a last gen game because most of the development was spent on the old consoles @cold sierra

[brisk nebula]

And it seems you have the advantage to ride a fantastic beast as a mount instead of a broom.

[severe trail]

What was that last few seconds on the stream ?? are we a dementor 😮

[river halo]

Gotham knights looks like a rushed game that they just pushed out to make a profit

[brisk nebula]

Well, I was hoping to get cross-platform progression for HL but I guess it isn't in the plan for them right now.

[river halo]

Was wondering this too

[severe trail]

Looked dope but now i'm really curious looked to dark to just be a teleportation

[mossy sentinel]

Cross progression would be cool

[novel notch]

maybe that book is a horcrux like tom riddles diary

[river halo]

Definitely looked dark artsey.

[heady charm]

I will make a multiplayer mod if no multiplayer

[severe trail]

take my money !

add magic chess and quiditch while at it LOL

[river halo]

https://tenor.com/view/jack-nicholson-yes-nod-agree-gif-21960775

[severe trail]

want to relive Quiditch world cup man

need a DLC or something for that

[river halo]

No quiditch was kind of a bummer

[heady charm]

i will make quidditch rank en tri wizard esports

[severe trail]

Right...

[regal geode]

not gunna lie, my friends make fun of me for how excited i am for this game for only have watching the first movie

[severe trail]

you do gotta watch the rest lol

[river halo]

And i really liked wizard chess in ootp. I mean i played it for hours and hours when i was a kid....

[cold sierra]

Agreed

[severe trail]

but wouldnt need to make fun of anyone the game looks amazing !

[regal geode]

yeah i will be over the next 2 months before it is released

[humble sequoia]

Give me the grapehorn

[mossy sentinel]

Hopefully we have photo mode at launch

[cold sierra]

I hope

[severe trail]

and i believe many will enjoy its features that it does have , i would have love a MP mode at least to enjoy it with friends

[river halo]

I dont have any friends that like HP lol so im fine with single player. But i really hope this game sells well and we see future projects. Id love an mmo with this style. And maybe a sequel with all 7 years playable...

[brisk nebula]

Yeah, I support MP mode as well.

I would have loved enjoying it with other crazy HP fans 😄

[mossy sentinel]

I’m going to spend some hours creating my character

[brisk nebula]

Heh, my first hour or two will probably be spent on my CC

[mossy sentinel]

The fact that we have our own house is amazing

[brisk nebula]

And that we can decorate the room of requirements as we want is a good thing too, imagine how many more things there will be to decorate in the house.

[mossy sentinel]

Facts

[novel notch]

the dorm room tho ❤️

[severe trail]

Was there any news on better or just availability on the 'collectors edition' ?

[mossy sentinel]

Also, feeding and petting the animals I’m here for all of it 🙌

[brisk nebula]

There is in the official FAQ April.

[severe trail]

not been able to even buy it in most countries , or just being sold out from the minute it droped

yh nothing new then...

just want my floating wand

[brisk nebula]

I wonder if there will be something like a package PS5 with HL CE

I might buy that one in Bulgaria if they drop such thing

[novel notch]

still hoping we can enter other houses' common rooms

[zealous summit]

Is there a lore reason why one can’t?

In Harry Potter 2, Ron and Harry go into the Slytherin common rooms, but then again they’re disguised.

[novel notch]

Idk for sure

you're right actually

but still worried the devs might pull a sneaky and make it so we cant

[rocky rampart]

SPARTANS

WHAT IS YOUR…

PRO FES SION

Haha

I have defeated them deleting my message for saying proffesion

But now the iconic line is out for all to see

[raven ferry]

It's the bot as it deletes all caps

[rocky rampart]

Oh

The bot is going to get it in the next life

[glass pecan]

Lamo

[frosty island]

I want a Magic Wand as a remote controller! This would've stepped up the game experience like /

[upbeat spear]

not sure if anyone responded to your question but a few ideals, Open World combat with a few "safe zones" here and there, though it would be a possibility there is always the 1v1 method, though so far how they have had the game designed a open world with safe zones would be most plausible. Guilds most likely or "groups", Ranking system if you lost or won, no real K/D system, just move up or go down in the ranking along with able to achieve some crafting items from the battle or money

[cold sierra]

That would be quite interesting

I want HP VR game 😂😂

[eternal pagoda]

Meep

I need to get a wand lmao

[short night]

Hello

[pseudo creek]

Hello don't know if it has already been asked but can streamers play the game on twitch during the 72h early access ?

I repost for an answer please :3

[upbeat spear]

Sovannya you should ask one of the people in avalanche or WB

[pseudo creek]

I was thinking it was maybe here sorry

[torpid epoch]

Does somebody know how much the dark arts battle pack dlc cost separately?

And does anyone know if the dark arts dlc that comes with the deluxe version is on the disc or separately through a code?

[safe inlet]

Bro fallen order survivor is only on xbox series s and x ps5 and pc whyyyyy

[humble sequoia]

Oof

[hollow pagoda]

Wsg

bro release for ps4 is 100 days from now 😦

[honest granite]

i mean they did make this for the xbox 360 https://www.amazon.com/Harry-Potter-Kinect-Xbox-360-microsoft/dp/B0087OXXGY

[hollow pagoda]

but for ps5 its like 77

i lowky wanna experience the gamein best quality might get ps5 idk

[cold sierra]

A ps5 vr game would be awesome

[honest granite]

yea this game in vr would be insane

[faint hamlet]

Hey I was wondering have they told us if it will be one year or multiple jw

[jovial nexus]

This game looks amazing, I’m new into this world and it looks amazing

[amber mango]

girlll izzz hot 🔥

[mossy sentinel]

If hogwarts is successful and gets a sequel I could only imagine what that game would look like running on unreal 5

[rugged niche]

Would be even more demanding on Hardware. Nvidia and AMD would be happy, because people would finally start upgrading their ancient GPUs.

[mossy sentinel]

Also, it would only be for current gen and PC

[brazen bolt]

That's a bit early to consider, but it would be the bees knees.

[mossy sentinel]

Oh I know it’s too early to talk about a sequel. I was just saying I would love to see how hogwarts looks on unreal 5

[rocky bobcat]

Hi, I just pre ordered the deluxe edition and saw it included "72hours early access" does that mean we can actually play the full game on the 7th ?

[rugged niche]

Yes! Either on PC or current gen consoles.

[median dune]

(wrong channel)

[rocky bobcat]

Damn it, already asked my leave on the 10th :p might have to reschedule :p

[rocky bobcat]

I just won't use it for that reason exactly. I guess there will be comunity driven challenges like no Avada play trough

[rugged niche]

The dev guy wanted to say that the Snow guy was spot on that the Dark Arts are the strongest in the game before being interrupted by the lady. So, yeah - AK is crazy powerful. I hope that in the real game, there is more going on and you have to descend somewhat into madness or something for you to cast AK consecutively and all that.

[grim veldt]

i think the game already runs on ue5

[mossy sentinel]

Nah it’s unreal 4. Unreal 5 only runs on PC and current gen

[grim veldt]

oh, mb

[rugged niche]

There is only Fortnite and some demos at the moment which showcase UE5 if I'm not mistaken.

[mossy sentinel]

Yeah

[mossy sentinel]

You’re good

Future titles like tomb raider, Witcher and cyberpunk will all start using unreal 5 going forward

[humble sequoia]

hello there fellow mages!

[mossy sentinel]

Yo ✋

[inner grail]

W or L profile?

[woeful forge]

man the guy in the yellow shirt is ruining the showcase

I get he's excited but it's so cring

[humble sequoia]

oh? Where is this in the vid?

timestamp? >.>

ngl the first 15 seconds of the showcase had amazing props that IMHO should've been in the preorder of the physical one

not that... book thing with a wand

oh I see the guy

[woeful forge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WS4qPq20aVo&t=157s

time stamp

[humble sequoia]

Yeah I notice when the group first appeared, he wanted to snatch the controller >.>

[woeful forge]

But yeah found it distracting, I wish they could upload it without commentary

[humble sequoia]

I get commentary if it's helpful and informative, but sometimes if it isn't ya know... informative then...

like the guy saying he wanted to snatch the controller to go to places, that isn't informative at all

it's meant to be a showcase, not wanting to play the game to do stuff in-game for the sake of doing it

[radiant torrent]

It’s true ? Can i torture Ppl with my very well learned Crucio?

[still crystal]

Of course

Can I join

[wild niche]

[flat wraith]

I wonder

[vale bluff]

just started the showcase and wow the graphics look amazing

[safe inlet]

Can we all agree that the cursed child is garbage and should be non cannon

[vale bluff]

fantastic beasts too

and shacklebolt's name

and chang cho's name

and a bunch of other things

[safe inlet]

Fantastic beast is good accept the second one

[vale bluff]

i see

[safe inlet]

What is wrong with cho changs name,

[rotund hamlet]

?????? She's supposed to be Chinese, but her name contains a Korean surname (Cho) and Chang is a Chinese surname

She doesn't have a first name, just 2 last names

[humble sequoia]

Isn't Cho a Sinitic word as well? Which is seen in China

of course it could be lack of in depth knowledge on the languages themselves

[rotund hamlet]

Yeah possibly

I don't care for it as much as I used to, but it is what it is

I can still appreciate Asian representation to some extent

[humble sequoia]

from what i read, in the Chinese translation of the book, it's been translated into "張秋", Zhāng Qiū'

[rotund hamlet]

Interesting

[humble sequoia]

Another being "張秋" in Hong Kong, which is where a direct romanization came from

but learning these languages I feel be harder then most due to how it's written and used

Like Japanese with one kanj meaning 10 billion things

[rotund hamlet]

China has so many dialects

[humble sequoia]

or a katakana letter having 5 meanings based on context
That as well, yeah

[supple igloo]

Or Japanese words with a bunch of other kanji

[humble sequoia]

fantastic beast had so much potential, but it focused on everything but the title of the movies itself

I want to know MORE about the fantastic beasts, not some white hair predigest dude over WWII and muggles with the elder wand

[rotund hamlet]

I loved the first movie, the others were alright

[vale bluff]

i don't wanna learn about new Mattel toy advertisements nor where to find them

[supple igloo]

I love all three of them

[flat wraith]

2 last name is common in english names too like smith johnson

[hardy marten]

hi

[rotund hamlet]

I understand that, but I don't think it's really common in Asian countries though

[flat wraith]

Maybe that idk, could it be cho is short for something?

[spring heath]

Will there be swimming

[raven ferry]

We don't know yet

[terse comet]

The hype is real!

[vale bluff]

i'd find it hard to believe there isn't swimmimg when the movies have like 3 big underwater sequences

maybe more

[vale bluff]

nah rowling is just weird with names for nonwhite brits

[terse comet]

I want to jump in.! platform Platform Nine and Three-Quarters! Here i come!

[flat wraith]

Idk they seem to have avoided water in all the clips and showcases posted. Maybe showing the mechanic is there or a sneak peak in the underwater world wouldn’t be massive giveaway

[supple igloo]

Not only do I think there will be swimming, but that Kelpies will be for terrain, and water

[flat wraith]

I think of swimming was there it would just be on the surface and not deep diving

[vale bluff]

i hope there is deep stuff

[flat wraith]

Indeed

[supple igloo]

Maybe even underwater dungeons you have to traverse with Gillyweed

[flat wraith]

Yea but then an hour max of exploration

And need to dive again

Guess it makes sense, even in gta you can’t be underwater forever

[humble sequoia]

magic, kekekekekek

if HP magic can allow a TARDIS to exist (theoretically speaking with the time turner), then I would think there be something to allow prolonged underwater breathing for eternity tbh

[flat wraith]

magicc

[humble sequoia]

there are so many spells in HP for almost everything that can solve so many issues

like you can literally use magic to have a self-cleaning household

don't need to even do anything, wave ya hand and everything gets cleaned, packed and ready

could maybe even SELF-COOK!

if anything, the ONLY issue in HP is morality, ethical decisions, laws, character and the dark arts and dark creatures, dangerous one as well

besides that, the HP world is almost entirely perfect and devoid of manual labour

coff houselves coff

House-elf are not really a intricate issue and actually falls under ethical issues

since from what we seen, they are all mostly slaves

but at the same time though, house-elf appears to be powerful magic casters

Hey All ! I'm SCARED ... My Phone sell to me "BREAKING AND SAD NEWS FOR HOGWARTS LEGACY ! ... The Game has retarding for '4 APRIL 2023' ..." It's a Fake News ? PLEASE 😢 I'm French So ... Sorry for my English, Apparently it's just for PS4 & XBOX ONE/Switch (...) But on PS5/SERIES X (Or again PC ?!) NP ...

[humble sequoia]

what?

[elfin wolf]

For ps4 & Xbox one yes@upbeat tide

[humble sequoia]

type properly my god

Literally can not comprehend all of that

[upbeat tide]

Ow ... Ok ok so it's a not fake breaking news :/

[humble sequoia]

are ya talking about the release dates as Nur stated?
And ahh ok
no worry on the language

[upbeat tide]

So ... I Have Pre Order this Game on My PS5 and Series X on Collector and Deluxe Edition ==> I Have My Game on 7 FEB ?! Thats ... okay ???! (And PC)

[humble sequoia]

should be fine then from what I been told about the PS5

but.. why did you preordered the same game on three different devices?
that is almost 300AUD dollars

192.36 euros if I did it right

[glass meteor]

what a mess

[humble sequoia]

ya spent money that is half the cost of a console for the same game

[glass meteor]

Apparently I pre order the ps4 even though it didnt say

hogwarts legacy digital deluxe edition but the email says ps4

[humble sequoia]

gonna check my email now

[elfin wolf]

The digital deluxe edition for playstation gives you both ps4 & ps5 copies of the game

[humble sequoia]

no wait, I got it on the PC, nevermind

[upbeat tide]

I'm In France so It's in € ^^' And ... Just have pre-order the big collector (so ... :/ ) on XBOX SERIES X ! But I have Pre-Order DELUXE EDITION on My PS5 and ... Just a Standard Edition cause don't choice on My Switch.

[glass meteor]

well the email doesnt say that

[upbeat tide]

(Wait, I just need my translator xD)

[glass meteor]

and it asked me if I want to wait until april or refund

[humble sequoia]

the thing that shocked me is you bought the game on the PS5, XBOX AND PC

[glass meteor]

right I purchased it from my ps5

[humble sequoia]

that is A LOT of money, the normal edition is less expensive then the deluxe by like 10AUD
dollars

A bit excessive honestly

in euro, the deluxe is like €50 roughly

[prisma shell]

the deluxe edition is like $110 dollars for me

its so expensive

[humble sequoia]

€64

[glass meteor]

i paid $86 us

[humble sequoia]

and grankle bought them in all devices (PS, Xbox AND PC)

[glass meteor]

but I think I just canceled it

idont ill have to call sony

anyone else having this issue

[humble sequoia]

wait, is it a physical order?

with that book book thing and wand preorder?

to cancel a physical preorder depends on what retail ya preordered it from

for digital, it be a refund then (like any other game)

imho, the physical preorder with the book and hovering wand is not worth 300AUD

God of War Ragnarok Collector's edition was cheaper but had way more stuff

No offensive

[upbeat tide]

Ok, I took out my translator to be sure of what I'm going to say: I bought EVERYTHING on Amazon (Because I'm a big fan, I really want this game and on all possible platforms, test everything (well, all.. . PC/PS5/and possibly Switch except that there is no Deluxe edition possible at the moment, at least I haven't found it).
First thing. (Just speak slowly please... Or if you speak French it would suit me a lot) I have to translate what I say and what YOU say and it's not very practical...

[humble sequoia]

I mean, it's also not practical for us to translate what we say to French also, and I also think there is a rule to keep it English anyways

might need a correction for that end part

[upbeat tide]

Then, I don't like dematerialized versions (at least not for games/sagas of which I'm really a FAN and that I'm looking forward to). Why did you pre-order on AMAZON?! Just because I won't be charged until February 7th (on Amazon, we're only charged on the day of release. So I'm waiting a few days before the PC release on Steam... Unless it comes out on DVD but I don't don't think so... Here I don't really have a choice)

[humble sequoia]

I really liked how the character flies on mystical animals in the new video.

If ya got a preorder on Amazon keep it, I think it all got sold out on Amazon

I can't preorder one from Amazon AU

but I personally think the deluxe physical preorder is a very lackluster preorder with little to nothing, nothing in it screams of the price it costs

the first 15 seconds of the showcase is what should've been in the preorder, not some book that has nothing in it, only used to keep a wand floating

a grimoire of spells and magic is another fine addition to use, detailing different spells of the harry potter universe, magical beasts, etc

[upbeat tide]

I only took the Collector's Edition ONCE! Indeed it is relatively expensive (and for the very poor content inside... It's really a shame, but hey, I took it just to have the box in my showcase, expanded in my Gaming Room in a Showcase, upright it will be super beautiful!I only took it on one platform, of course... As for the PS5/PC -And even the Nintendo Switch... Although I couldn't find than the Standard Edition on Amazon) I just took the Deluxe version of course. I didn't take 4 Collectors Boxes I'm not that stupid lol (I Go Translate your messages Wait please))

[rugged niche]

CE is hot garbage. But with how scare the whole thing is, keeping and and not opening it might be the better choice here. People will pay top dollar in maybe one or two decades for it.

[humble sequoia]

I am fine with the waiting, don't worry

[humble sequoia]

A person making a elder wand from actual elder wood is way better then everything the preorder has

and that is only 200+, way cheaper but much better

the game looks great, but they did very little for the preorder physical bonuses

maybe a statue of the preorder animal thing the preorder comes with?

so many things to put into it, and they choose a poor one

[rugged niche]

It's the 3 days for me. The 10€ euro are a waste imo, but it is what it is. I went for digital deluxe on pc. So, meh - we'll see how bad/good the game performs in the end.

[humble sequoia]

Imagine a Thestral statue

legit way better then some book and wand

I went for digital as well

has everything for way cheaper

the book is just.. way too big, too much clutter

[rugged niche]

You don't have to buy it if you can't or don't want to. Not sure why you're clubbing a dead horse at this point. The CE is what it is.

[humble sequoia]

sorry, I just expected better for something that cost 300AUD

a lot of money

[rugged niche]

The outrage was there months ago when it was first announced and it was still sold out in a matter of minutes. So frankly speaking, WB doesn't give a flying fickle.

[humble sequoia]

most companies don't if it all get sold

also funny people complain but they still buy it anyways lol

I need the books

I should read them all up to the release date

[rugged niche]

Their money, their choice. If you think it's worthwhile, go for it. I don't think it is. I also don't think the Deluxe edition is worth it, but I want the three days headstart, so there is that. All a matter of perspective.

[upbeat tide]

Yes yes, I am relatively disappointed with the contents of the collector's box as I said ... I have a bit of hope that: Either the price drops / or that other things are added to the box (Even if it's just cards with special codes to have in-game content for example...)

But I didn't come to talk about that, I just wanted to know if I should be afraid for my pre-orders or not, I have my answer: It will be released well / I will receive it well on February 7th (I will watch the Postman as never counting the minutes XD I'm going to jump on his neck! in "OH THANK YOU!!! FINALLY I HAVE IT! THANK YOU THANK YOU!! The poor guy won't understand my JOY! XD) If my box is damaged/If there are problems with my order and my games don't arrive on time (That scares me !!...) , I'm going to be really disappointed there for once ... I'm waiting, like all of us I think so! 🙂 Can't wait!

And suddenly, I see that they favor the Next-Gen version... There must be a good reason for that (?) On the other hand, why on PC it was delayed? I admit that I don't really understand. 🙂

So Thanks For reply Me, and Sorry for my English again, I am FRENCH and ... I really NEED a Discord French Community ... For French Community :X It's verry complicated for us

[novel narwhal]

[upbeat tide]

Although: I will have some questions that bother me and that I find difficult to understand... Especially since once again: Everything is in English... No translation: Whoever does not speak English... Can go get it :/

But vis a vis the Wizard site... So I was sent to Ravenclaw/I got a Patronus/I created My profile picture/And Olivanders gave me my wand. My account is ready... But what's the point of all this?! (Besides, I didn't want to go to Ravenclaw 😦 I would have liked to go to either Hupperuffle or Slytherin (...) According to Chandler Wood it doesn't change anything because when creating the character you can choose your house, but it doesn't It's not very... clear to me... What about the wand/Patronus?! If we link our account and all? I mean: We can link his account and just take the wand for example? Or if we associate our account, everything will be pre-defined... (Finally what's the point of doing all that?? Really I don't understand. And even less in a language foreign to mine T.T)

I just need your help and some clarification about all this, so that I know what it's for concretely... (While maybe I did all this for nothing because I won't have nothing, we won't be able to associate anything: No wand / no predefined house / Not our Patronus ...) Can someone explain to me briefly please in a few words? (And in one go that I can quickly translate thank you XD)

[red moat]

I think yes, even if you link your account you are not locked into any of the choices from your account.

[upbeat tide]

... Okaay, but that's just a guess? :/ Actually I will need Chandler Wood XD

[red moat]

They have confirmed it I'm pretty sure

Sorry, juste have choice my House ... And my Profile '-' I cant click ... "What your language ?" "French" ! For unlocked a French Saloon 😦

but, thank you ❤️

[rugged niche]

Game can be played in French.

[upbeat tide]

oh well happy again...!

All that's missing is...

[verbal maple]

welp just found out there was an official discord for this title

[humble sequoia]

indeed Grand Admiral >.>

[verbal maple]

still got to get the game though, but I defiantly will once its closer to the release.

but guessing most people go through the house process from the Wizarding World? Since I know you get benefits for linking the accounts at least

[wind cairn]

you get the house fan-atics robes and the bird skull mask for linking yes

the game also imports ur a wand and house

tho u will not be locked into it, it just defaults to it

[verbal maple]

but wouldn't we change wands in game? although I guess in lore you don't really change wands much as a wizard either

[wind cairn]

you will get to choose ur wand during the same portion of the game

[verbal maple]

still want to figure out which house be more me anything xD most tests I take say I be Slytherin or Ravenclaw, never taken the wizardingworld one though

[wind cairn]

but no, wands arent like a +4 dagger u drop for a +5 one

ur wand is special to you

[verbal maple]

gotcha, at least I won't have to worry too much on making sure it looks good on me before the stats xD

[humble sequoia]

the wand chooses the wizard, mr. potter

[verbal maple]

but I want all the wands to choose me OnO

[humble sequoia]

The wand is basically your character's life
Like a lightsaber
"This weapon is your life"

That is why when Voldemort asked for another's wand, everyone was tense since losing a wand is like losing a part of yourself

hence why Lucius was so tense

also there is no wands just lying around >.>

[verbal maple]

1800s might of been a different time 🤷 but good to know its going super faithful to the works

but guess I gotta start figuring out if I'm truly Slytherin or Ravenclaw. Kinda prefer the Ravenclaw common room over the Slytherin not gonna lie

[rugged niche]

Might have. What's up with this of thing. It. Does. Not. Exist.

You can play either house in your play through. Doesn't matter much. Don't think the game will force segregation like it did in the OG movies and books.

[verbal maple]

nonsense, gotta stay loyal

[mossy sentinel]

Are you guys going down the dark path or are you fighting for good?

[rugged niche]

Since dark is better, dark of course.

[verbal maple]

I go down the path of knowledge, if that means learning the dark arts, so be it. It still there to learn

Can't understand the dark arts if you don't practice to learn it. You won't be afraid of the dark arts if you understand it though.

[red moat]

I'll probably play in such a way that I learn all the spells, but not necessarily use them.

[mossy sentinel]

So what determines if your character goes evil or not?

[verbal maple]

i mean the FAQ did say there are not quests that turn your morality, so I don't think you can really go evil or not necessarily

[mossy sentinel]

Ah okay

[rugged niche]

Curious how broken AK will be in the final product. But combat looks great. Just hope I can get 100+ frames on ultra on my PC.

[verbal maple]

I be curious of that too xD although I wouldn't mind just High with how detailed everything is

[humble sequoia]

Good morning everyone.

Good afternoon Topaz

[verbal maple]

greetings Topaz

rip :( I got my wand now, but its Rowan and it saids that its commonly stated that no dark wizard has ever owned a rowan wand.... Guess there is always a first!!! 😈

[humble sequoia]

i wanted elder wood but got fir, but the wand itself is great!

Fir wands are particularly suited to Transfiguration, and favour owners of focused, strong-minded and, occasionally, intimidating demeanour.

[verbal maple]

that is nice though :D I gotta do some more research on the different wood types for sure. Not a huge book of knowledge on the series, although I would say I love the lore of what I can find on my ons and offs of it

[humble sequoia]

My wand is Rowan...

[rugged niche]

Same.

[winged venture]

Rowan Atkinson?

[verbal maple]

do wonder how Transfiguration will be in the game for sure. Am hyped for that

[humble sequoia]

https://www.wizardingworld.com/writing-by-jk-rowling/wand-woods

For wood types

[verbal maple]

the Rowan Wand has a special power of giving us bertie Bott's BEANS for sure

[verbal maple]

will be reading that shortly

[winged venture]

ay cool haha!

[humble sequoia]

Hey, everyone. Might I ask a quick question?
...Anyone want to play a round of Triple Triad?

[supple igloo]

Triple Triad?

[verbal maple]

Its from FF I think? I had to look it up lol

[humble sequoia]

You know, that card game from FF8.
Some people love it. Some people hate it.

[verbal maple]

but I never played FF :( I was a Dragon Quest guy xD

[humble sequoia]

The only FF I actually played was 4. I also played Chrono Trigger, but neither of those have Triple Triad.

The JRPG I played the most as a kid was The Legend of Dragoon.

Oh, and World of Warcraft, but that isn't a JRPG.

[verbal maple]

ye xD I played my fair share of RPGs, but sadly was none of those, although I dabbled with Chrono for a little bit, should get back into it, even the music still in my head

[humble sequoia]

I'm actually listening to the OST right now for Chrono Trigger.

[verbal maple]

epic 😎

[humble sequoia]

I really need to play more FF games...

[verbal maple]

I'm the type of crazy person that has to play them in order, even though I know FF has no order from 1 through 2 and such

so I just have no clue where to really start

[humble sequoia]

Pro tip GAW, it's Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy 2, Final Fantasy 3, Final Fantasy 4, Final Fantasy 5, Final Fantasy 6, Final Fantasy Overrated - Er I mean Final Fantasy 7, Final Fantasy 8, Final Fantasy 9, Final Fantasy 10, Final Fantasy 11, Final Fantasy 12, Final Fantasy the worst one - I mean uh, 13... Final Fantasy 14 and Final Fantasy 15.

[verbal maple]

but I won't have any time for HL with all of those

[hearty tangle]

Start with the one that looks most interesting to you

[humble sequoia]

Don't worry, you won't need to play 11 or 14. They're MMOs.

[verbal maple]

I seen some with airships, and I have a weakspot for Steampunk styles

[hearty tangle]

As a huge FF fan, at least give them a try after HL

[humble sequoia]

Hm... Final? A Final Fantasy fan?

[hearty tangle]

Thats not what my name refers to lol

It's more to do with the fact I like to think I am the last or final of something in existence

[verbal maple]

the final wizard

[hearty tangle]

precisely. Something like that

the last dark wizard to ever live.

[twilit flume]

https://tenor.com/view/myfinalbraincell-gif-21083925

This is all I think of when I see your name, I just want you to be aware of that

[humble sequoia]

I'm gonna go to bed now. Night ya'll. ;3

[verbal maple]

night night

after talking about harry potter RPGs, it makes me want to play the old Harry Potter games from the Game Boy era again

[humble sequoia]

[brazen cave]

Does anyone know if we can buy onyx hippogrif later in game?

[verbal maple]

not sure really, I think it be a preorder for sure though

[hearty tangle]

onyx hippogriff is a pre order exclusive so no you cant.

You can get normal hippogriff in the game though

onyx hippogriff is just a skin of a normal hippogriff

[brazen cave]

Ohhh

Thanks for clarifying🙂

[hearty tangle]

np!

[brazen dust]

hi guys, are you know, is czech subtitles in the game?

[dry sierra]

Futuro será PVP E QUADRIBOL ONLINE!

let's defeat these bad blood !!!

[hoary jungle]

nie, nie sú 😦

[modest onyx]

Sad how gen chat is dead and HL gen just goes brrrrrrrrrr

How are you guys doing today?

[verbal maple]

we doing alright, never seen the showcase videos so watching them now. How about yourself?

[modest onyx]

Oh, your first time watching them? I haven't checked the newest yet but I'm about to. Good to hear that you're doing alright tho

[verbal maple]

and same with yourself, and hope you enjoy it as well :) been hearing alot about it from above lol

[modest onyx]

I'm alrighttt Thinking whether I should continue knitting some mittens or just sit and spend time on Discord

[verbal maple]

could try both if you concentrate hard enough :P could even make some Ravenclaw mitts if you could 😍

[modest onyx]

AWWW that's actually a great idea! I'm currently making some ice hockey themed mittens for my dad for Christmas, but maybe I should make myself some Ravenclaw mittens as well

[verbal maple]

hockey themed mittens sound cool! He will probably enjoy them, I know I would for sure! and perhaps :), could keep those for yourself though :P

[modest onyx]

Ahah oh thank you!

I even have some yarn that's that ravenclaw blue. Idk if I need mittens tho, I'd love some knee-high wool socks

[proven swan]

Can we get felix felicious recipe by gameplay on PC or is it only exclusive to PS?

[modest onyx]

Maybe #💬hogwarts-legacy-general can help you with that, the convo is hot there

[verbal maple]

ooh even better!

[verbal maple]

I been hearing it alot as its a PS thing, but still we got 2 months before the game releases, so anything can happen

rip, getting nowhere with the videos since I having too much enjoyment chatting here lol

[formal parrot]

Why did I just get an Email From PlayStation saying that Hogwarts Legacy is being delayed to the 4. April 2023?

[verbal maple]

its April 4 for last gen like PS4 and Xbox One

its still Feb 10 for this gen and PC

[formal parrot]

Oh I see

[modest onyx]

Ohhh

[cyan briar]

Just got the news that my preorder of this game is delayed to 4/4 :D

[verbal maple]

:D if you were on PS4 or Xbox One then yes

[cyan briar]

i preordered months ago, as soon as it was available for pre order, how fun. Anyone else got this?

no, ps5

[verbal maple]

then you are fine, its still Fed 10 or Feb 7 if you got the deluxe with the 3 day early special

I think anyone that bought it from the PS store might of got the message cuz they couldn't separate it

[cyan briar]

i did, but just got an email saying its delayed

oh

[verbal maple]

its only delayed for PS4 and Xbox One ye

so you still good PS5 gamer o7

[cyan briar]

oh thank god

ty for telling me this

[verbal maple]

my pleasure :)

[glacial marsh]

Hello. I live on the territory of Ukraine. Recently I wanted to buy a game in steam. I read that Russian subtitles are indicated there (they will be more familiar to me than English). Tell me, will they stay on the release of the game?

[amber mango]

I say we have som booze n shi

[quiet storm]

roh row

i saw hogwarts legacy was for prepurchase and before i could stop my hand... i purchased it!

[amber mango]

Walahi habibi!

bismilllah, Welcome brother

[rare stratus]

Announcements channel bugged?

[outer vector]

I have a question but I’m not sure if anyone can help me.
I want to be able to play the game on my tv, but I only have a switch and a pc. I also don’t really wanna wait until July. Does anyone know that if I buy the game on the pc. If I have to buy it again for on my switch later. Or if there will be cloud saves. (Like Dreamlight Valley has)

[quiet storm]

if your tv has a hdmi port you can swap your monitor out for the tv

[verbal maple]

switch would be Nintendo store so buying it from steam wouldnt mean you have it for switch

but ye you can hook your tv instead or stream it if your tv supports it

[outer vector]

Thanks!

[verbal maple]

np and love the name if it comes from that other series which isnt full of happiness xD

[outer vector]

It does🙈

[verbal maple]

woohoo! glad I noticed then! been watching that series again recently

[quiet storm]

oooh? what series?

[verbal maple]

series of unfortunate events

[outer vector]

Same! Been reading the books too :)

[quiet storm]

oh, that was an unfortunet series

[verbal maple]

already have the whole series :p besides the auto biography which was the library or the snicket spin off series

[safe inlet]

Does anyone do ai art?

[verbal maple]

gotta read those sometimes

[quiet storm]

whats ai art?

[verbal maple]

art made by ai. been popular alot lately

[outer vector]

I’ve got all the books on paper and e-reader, Beatrice Letters for my birthday this years so I think I only need one more book about the series

[quiet storm]

oooh interesting, do you have to pay the ai for the art?

[verbal maple]

I forgot about the letters! I remember how big it was xD

[verbal maple]

or whoever created it but I know there been some apps and websites people been using, but it's not a topic I know too much, although I love AI lol. giving AI your pictures to a database be scary lol

but that's the internet for you

[verbal maple]

sounds like an epic collection then, wish there were still more being worked on

[humble sequoia]

SUUUIIIIIIIIIIII

[quiet storm]

oh i was hoping it could create free cover art

[verbal maple]

im sure it can mad kitty

just gotta research and find one. some writers I know use them for free concept art for inspiration

[quiet storm]

ooo

[outer vector]

Same, I’ve watched everything and read almost every book and I still have loads of questions about it 🥲

[verbal maple]

oh indeed. loved how the author was in the series to help answer some questions the books left out although some are debatable for sure but still so many questions x-x but I like it that way xD

use to dream myself in those stories before

[outer vector]

Yes I love mystery also that the fact you still have questions. Gives you the room to “fantasise” or choose your own answers.

[verbal maple]

exactly! what really was in the sugar bowl? so suspenseful

I would comb that auto biography book so much trying to find secrets xD

and I don't care what others say, I LOVED the Nick movie version as well

[outer vector]

The one with Jim Carrey?

[outer vector]

Definitely!

[verbal maple]

yes. one of my favorite things in it was the narration from Lemony Snicket and the movie director after the director kidnapped Snicket and held him against his will to watch the entire movie as Snicket kept saying the lives of the orphans shouldnt be profited by the movie studio and that Jim Carrey was in fact the real count olaf in disguise as Jim carrey acting as count olaf

[outer vector]

It was a good movie. I just wished there would have been followups movies about the other books.

[verbal maple]

for sure, I would of loved to seen more in that dark vision for sure. Reminded me alot of Tim burton in a way

[quiet storm]

yea its fricken depressing when they make a movie about the first book then forget the rest of em

[verbal maple]

I think nick thought it was a flop from the theature? and why it didn't continue but it grew in popularity as it went to dvd

[outer vector]

Also I love the fact that Dr. Orwell from the series is also in the movie.

[verbal maple]

now I want to watch that movie narration again. was comedy gold

[outer vector]

Yes same, I love Tim Burtons “darker” movies. 🙈

[verbal maple]

who wouldn't! Gotta embrace the dark and creepy sides at times

[verbal maple]

I was like what I don't remember, but now I remember you mean the actress xD

[outer vector]

Yes! Sweeney Todd is one of my favourites :)

[outer vector]

Yes sorry hahaha. She plays Justice Strauss in the movie ig.

[verbal maple]

havnt seen that one but I wanted too with Depp in it

[verbal maple]

mhmm! love the call backs they did with all the versions of the series

[outer vector]

And Helena Bonham Carter and Alan Rickman and Jamie Campbell.

[outer vector]

Yes! They’re great.

[verbal maple]

agreed c: I'll have to add that movie to my huge enormous list of things I still need to watch xD

[quiet storm]

o9h god, lets not mention lists of things to watch read or play

[outer vector]

I think I’ve seen everything created by Tim Burton with Johnny or Helena in. 😊

[verbal maple]

my list grows exponentially sadly 😂

[verbal maple]

[quiet storm]

johnny and helena are tim burtons go to actors

[outer vector]

My parents where fans. I just grew up it and liked it hahahha

[finite hull]

Hey guys, Short question: will there be another Chance to get the collectors Edition for PC?

[verbal maple]

sadly dont think so many collector editions sold out unless you find a reseller

[steady spoke]

Just copped the pre-order.

[finite hull]

Damn it, would‘ve been the Perfect gift.

[verbal maple]

[whole pond]

no Deluxe

[storm citrus]

Deluxe includes PS4

[whole pond]

mine didn't

[storm citrus]

Deluxe Edition bring PS4 & PS5 digital versions. It said on the website.

You got it through the PS5 store but if you got it from a physical store?

[whole pond]

mine just has the PS5 version with no mention of last gen at all

one of the other games that launches a month after Hogwarts has both versions but it's a remake of a game from 2005

[upbeat finch]

any idea what is the play time for the game ?

[humble sequoia]

10 hours

Lol jk idk

I hope it’s over a hundred

But I feel it will be around 20 to 40

[zealous summit]

Main quest probably 15 or something. Main quest + side quests maybe 40 or something. Main quest + side quests + all objectives maybe 60 or something. Just my guess.

Maybe I'm underestimating it. Don't be surprised if it's a lot more.

[humble sequoia]

I’m always cautious with optimism

However I wish to be surprised

[pseudo drum]

I’m waiting for legacy for coming soon I loved to play this game in my Xbox s . I’m very excited 😆

[humble sequoia]

SJWs better go cry somewhere else. They ain't ruining this for me by their petition

[humble sequoia]

No one even mentioned them lmao do they really live inside your head rent free?

[quaint hazel]

Why isn’t it available for Xbox one preorder?

[humble sequoia]

It is

#😎off-topic

Posted a pic of the website

Should help out

[zealous summit]

I'm surprised to see such a large server without an English only rule.

[humble sequoia]

Eat my Azz* since they wanna censor me

[stuck scarab]

has there been any talk about the game's maintenance and updates or is it gonna be abandoned after launch per usual?

[zealous summit]

I expect DLC post-launch.

[pseudo drum]

I pre ordered as well

I can’t wait for coming omg 😳

That game legacy it’s to slow for coming

[humble sequoia]

Well the dev team seemed really passionate so hopefully they’ll fix any bugs or glitches if the game releases in that sort of way

[cosmic thicket]

brothers

id hate being on old gen and switch rn

[flint hull]

Imagine buying the deluxe edition and planning to play on old gen or switch

[cosmic thicket]

oh yeah havent even thought of that, what happens there, can they refund?

[humble sequoia]

yeah so true

[cosmic thicket]

i havent been active here recently, do we know anything about an FPS cap to 60 on pc or no?

[zealous summit]

No, but I'd be surprised if there's an FPS cap.

[cosmic thicket]

i just have trust issues because from elden ring tbh

[rugged niche]

Let's hope we can push 60FPS on PC on 4K. Who knows how good/bad game is optimised.

[cosmic thicket]

very true

[gentle quartz]

The switch deserves more some respect for it come in July tsk

[cosmic thicket]

some say just release it early and then complain when its glitchy but its whatever

[novel narwhal]

Anyone asking for a beta release I'm like bruh it's single player and you can play it 3 days early if you preorder and it comes out in 2 months what do you want

[zealous summit]

I really hope I can. I'm just going to max settings and hope for the best.

[cosmic thicket]

8 weeks sounds better in my opinion

because a week is shorter than a month

[plain plaza]

Who is going to be the headmaster in the late 1800s hogwarts?

[cosmic thicket]

black guy no?

Black last name guy

[novel narwhal]

I'ma be batman where I never kill anyone

[cosmic thicket]

bro

is through, through or trough

whatever, ill do 3 play throughs, one purley good guy and one evil and one in between

[humble sequoia]

What do you mean?

[warped salmon]

He means Elden Ring did him wrong by capping the frame rate at 60fps

there are mods, however, that take care of that

This is an Unreal Engine 4 game though... frame rate caps wouldn't scare me as much as texture popping , LOD and texture streaming issues

judging from the trailers these problems can be found in Legacy... not that I really care about them in this case

[zealous summit]

Can you be banned from online if you do it? I just bought the game.

[vapid swan]

February 10 for X|S April 4th for Xbox one and ps4 and July 25th for the switch.

You can create your character all the way down ti the voice

[warped salmon]

each mod is another story... but if you read the installation info you'll find out how to use it and not get banned.

[lime onyx]

The game is out?? I thought on feb it would be

[silent sandal]

its already out

playing it rn hop on multiplayer w me

[lime onyx]

I gotta buy it first

[silent sandal]

im joking.

please do not let people embarrass you this way.

[lime onyx]

Imma avadakadabra you when its out

[silent sandal]

not if i reparo you first

[verbal maple]

yes, embrace all sides of magic!

[jade terrace]

I’m upgrading because it’s probs getting canceled on ps4

[honest night]

Loved new gameplay showcase its absolutely mind boggling. Its really gives pain to wait till feb

[hasty furnace]

will there be a difficulty option?

[wind cairn]

yes

[hasty furnace]

ty

[wind cairn]

Story -> Easy -> Normal -> Hard

[opal lintel]

Nice. Now I just need to get a PS5 I can't wait until April 😭

So... is nobody around?

[noble plaza]

everyone is gone.

[balmy lion]

Gone

[noble plaza]

missing

it's empty.

[balmy lion]

Reduced to atoms

[noble plaza]

reduce your expections.

to 0.

[balmy lion]

Raise your expectations to 1

[humble sequoia]

Well shame. I guess you two will never get to chat with me then.

[balmy lion]

Oh

[noble plaza]

jus a joke

lmao

[balmy lion]

[noble plaza]

i fell in love with a slytherin u guys🫢

[humble sequoia]

Isn't that Hufflepuff's thing?

[noble plaza]

i think it is, but it's pretty unexpected to have a crush on a slytherin. especially when ur a gryffindor🤷‍♀️

[leaden junco]

slytherins are people too!

[balmy lion]

Hm

Us Slytherins like relationships tho

[balmy lion]

Fr!

[humble sequoia]

I still haven't fallen in love with anyone. Unless some of you guys are shipping me and Gamingo?

[verbal maple]

what's a relationship? I use a potion for that right?

[humble sequoia]

Sadly no, Wrath. There is no real potion for falling in love.

[sour ore]

Good Morning !

[humble sequoia]

Good morning - er, evening.

[sour ore]

Evening 🙈

[pseudo drum]

Good night 😴🌙💤 y’all and have a good weekend .

[humble sequoia]

But it's not even Friday yet...

[red moat]

Well into Friday here

[humble sequoia]

Still not even 10:30pm over here.

[red moat]

closing in on 6:30 here

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well, I live in Mountain Standard Time Zone. Soooooooo yeah.

[jade terrace]

Just bought ps5 so playing on the 7th

[lament zinc]

🥳

[humble sequoia]

We have both a PS5 and XSX.

[winged venture]

🫡 Salute Gamer

[zealous summit]

06:53 here.

[winged venture]

Hey hello! uhm, what were you talking about?

[fallen ore]

How would your house traits look as a combat style? Slytherin traits are: Ambition, cunningness, heritage, and resourcefulness. I can see a combat style using stealth (cunningness) and major use of the R1 key using the surrounding environment as a weapon. (Resourcefulness)

[humble sequoia]

How you constantly interact with me here on the HL Server. It was mostly a joke, cause I mean...
...you wouldn't really want to keep our friendship/relationship going, would you?

[winged venture]

What? sry I didn't get that lol?

[humble sequoia]

The joke is that I'm bi.

[winged venture]

uh 🤔
sry im still processing that lol.
but alright 👍

[ruby basin]

hi bi, I’m bigmike

[winged venture]

Hi BigMike, I'm Gamingo

[humble sequoia]

Hi BigMike! I'm Bi!

[sour ore]

Awesome!! I got my hands on PS5 this month as well!

🙈

[worldly yacht]

What if ... i set a shop for people to pay to look at a PS5

But no touching

Well, triple price for touching

[humble sequoia]

You'd probably get bleeped.

[worldly yacht]

Lol

[icy plover]

i literally dont have any patience for the game to release, likeeee i think about it everyday

all the time

[worldly yacht]

It's turning out to be one hell of a promise

But the question is .... would it be GOTY, probably be very close if everything works as intended. Though, can't say that until it comes out

[winged venture]

hope for the big, Johnny 😉
it won't be GOTY, rather it will be GOTC (Game of the Century)

[worldly yacht]

You right, thinking too small

The game has a LOT going for it.

[winged venture]

😁 🫡 👍

[worldly yacht]

I am still interested in seeing how a switch would be about to run it tho

Some heavy downgrading

[verbal maple]

they have discovered the magic to make it work by then

[worldly yacht]

Again, I'm thinking too small

You right

[flat wraith]

GOATY

[bleak gate]

the game will be a online after the patch and updeta ?

[worldly yacht]

?

[bleak gate]

any news about it ? cause it have to be

[worldly yacht]

No info or anything on it being online

As far as they are concerned, I think it's a single player game all the way

[verbal maple]

Single player focused yes. only online is for updates like the day one patch and to link your WW account

[worldly yacht]

Ok but I am 100% they are asking about multiplayer

[verbal maple]

ye, no multiplayer for sure

maybe one day we get a multiplayer non-mobile crossplatform game where we work in the MoM xD Would play that one for sure

[worldly yacht]

I'm actually in shock that some people will not buy this game and be a HP fan because it's not multiplayer

Not saying they won't but you know some are

[verbal maple]

Some people are too absorbed into MMOs now that it's all they play, I was the same too before honestly. I found groups though like this Discord helpful alot to build a multiplayer experience in a single player game though talking about it, sharing stories and theory crafting at times too

[worldly yacht]

I mean ... MMOs do have their place and charm.

But I'm happy this isnt

I used to be one for Runescape back in the day. 25 years

[verbal maple]

agreed. Imagine a MMO hogwarts where everyone Avada Kadavra xD

[worldly yacht]

15 XD

[worldly yacht]

Permadeath

[cold prawn]

hello guys

[verbal maple]

The only MMO I play these days is the one all gamers cant decide if it's a scam or not lol

[verbal maple]

greetings! welcome aboard!

[worldly yacht]

Life?

[verbal maple]

very close lol

[worldly yacht]

Oof, no matter what the answer is ... that's a gamer moment

[verbal maple]

indeed lol

[worldly yacht]

But one thing I'd like to see online

Pvp in the Defense against the dark arts class

[verbal maple]

for duels would been great, which makes me happy if a game came out where you are an Auror fighting dark wizards

would love that to be the mystery/ combat type game for sure

[worldly yacht]

Not even going to talk about Quidditch but we all know what we want

Sad it didn't happen

[verbal maple]

agreed but just building mechanics for that would put the game longer in development

[worldly yacht]

Exactly

[humble sequoia]

Why is it that all your talking about Quidditch and HL Multiplayer that will never happen reminding me of The Secret Island of Doctor Quandary?

[worldly yacht]

It's more of a hypothetical

[humble sequoia]

It still reminded me of Doctor Q.

[drifting steeple]

Hey

[humble sequoia]

Granted, I highly doubt many of you would even know what The Secret Island of Doctor Quandary is.

Also hey, Venom!

[drifting steeple]

What are u guys talking about

[humble sequoia]

Not much, they were just discussing something related to HL Multiplayer that isn't going to happen and it reminded me of an old PC game that taught math and such.

[main harbor]

A lot of people complained about the flying in the game idk why it looks perfectly fine

[worldly yacht]

Really? I wonder why they don't like it

Maybe it's the whole meter thing where you can't fly high for a long time?

[humble sequoia]

Who knows?

[main harbor]

idk you can use the dragon or whatever and go up you just can’t with the broom

people always got something to complain about the game looks like it’s good and they’re prolly going to add even more stuff a month or two after launch

[rotund hamlet]

It makes sense for the broomstick to not be able to fly as high as the Hippogriff because broomstick technology shouldn't be as advanced as we're accustomed to in HP's time

[dim scroll]

^ this

[rotund hamlet]

If you think about it, all Hippogriffs have to worry about is survival of the fittest and having the best genes be passed down from generation to generation. You can't exactly do that with broomsticks and technology takes time to advance. We start in the late 1800s, but HP starts in the 1980s-1990s. There's more than a 1000 year difference so obviously technology would be better later on

It wouldn't make sense for the broomstick to be better than a magical creature in that time period

It's really simple honestly haha

[delicate scaffold]

lol i cant believe that we can actually use avada kedavra freely without it being limited to a finisher.

[rain mesa]

It’s technically a finisher

[delicate scaffold]

ecksde

[delicate scaffold]

or wdym

[verbal maple]

if they get hit by it, won't need to hit them with anything else 🤣

[dim scroll]

the cooldown on is it daft imo

[delicate scaffold]

tbh the cooldown is needed

its waaaay too overpowered if u could spam it

[dim scroll]

nah im not saying to spam it

but like, once per fight instance

[delicate scaffold]

tho i really hope that they included the lore of the spell properly, such as it not being fatal to very large or powerful creatures as dragons

[dim scroll]

especially in the arena, once per wave, to use as like a last resort

[verbal maple]

it be too easy, I want to make my opponents embarrassed that my dueling skills far outrank their own before I finish them off. I don't care if they are goblins!

[rotund hamlet]

I was thinking of not using it at all at first, but don't know 😛

[delicate scaffold]

does the game have a crime system?

[verbal maple]

I be fighting with fisticuffs in the arena. No rules saying wizards can't throw hands.

[delicate scaffold]

like it would be kinda silly to cast it in public areas

[dim scroll]

I mean technically as a Huffly boi, I shouldn't, but I gotta tickle that part of my mind yk

[worldly yacht]

Not to my knowledge

[dim scroll]

omg bare fist fight with trolls, let's do it

[verbal maple]

there is no morality system in the game I believe its said inthe faq

[dim scroll]

nah there isn't, I think they woulda mentioned that during the dark arts showcase the other day

[verbal maple]

so there is no good or evil, just you

[delicate scaffold]

hmm how is the player punished for casting it publically then

[rotund hamlet]

I don't think so considering there's no morality system in the game

[verbal maple]

go ahead, you go punish a wizard that knows the killing curse. Tell me how it goes

[dim scroll]

[rain mesa]

Im gonna use it whenever possible, might need to playing on hard

[worldly yacht]

Just evil you for wanting to cast in in public :p

[delicate scaffold]

well yea but iirc it was outlawed a long time before voldy arldy

[verbal maple]

they might not even be forbidden by this time as well, not sure

[delicate scaffold]

to use on humans*

iirc its not forbidden to cast the unforgivable curses on non humans

by that time

tho frowned upon

[dim scroll]

they are banned as of 1717

canny post a screenshot but that's what a simple google comes back with

[verbal maple]

I gotta brush up on my history alot, but I'm sure the game will do that too with the pages

at least we won't have to worry about Sectumsempra

[delicate scaffold]

gotta say im all too hyped now because i was really worried of the game being dumb'ed down for family friendliness

but seems its not.

[verbal maple]

We need more edgy Wizarding World stuff for sure

we all grown up, we can handle it xD

[delicate scaffold]

but yea im for sure going to learn all aspects of magic too

[dim scroll]

agreed, but the game is still rated as PEGI 12

[delicate scaffold]

is it?

i thought its 16

[dim scroll]

oh yeah, it was changed from 12 to 16

[rotund hamlet]

5th years are about 16-17 so they're not even adults yet

[dim scroll]

mb

[verbal maple]

its 16+ ye

[delicate scaffold]

means it can have violence just not overly bloody

[dim scroll]

but still, 16 aint grown up

[verbal maple]

and its rated M in the ESBR

[delicate scaffold]

right?

[verbal maple]

so to america, its a no no game xD

[dim scroll]

no one cares about the yanks

[verbal maple]

but honestly with digital downloads, I don't think many people care about game ratings anymore

[delicate scaffold]

the funny thing is

age restriction doesnt even matter because if ur parents consent u to play whatever

it lifts the restriction

[dim scroll]

its more of a parental advisory now

[delicate scaffold]

and if they dont consent, ur basically getting whooped anyways🤣

[dim scroll]

• a restriction of what sellers can sell to kids

[delicate scaffold]

but im alrdy out of that span, i mean i was 6 when the first movie came out on VHS

[dim scroll]

then, that all lies down to the parenting of the kids.
But thats a whole different can of worms

[delicate scaffold]

xD

god im old

[dim scroll]

I was 8

[delicate scaffold]

yea ofc

[dim scroll]

probs 9 when it hit the shelves

[delicate scaffold]

'member that time when life was still easy? xD

[verbal maple]

I mean parents let their kids go on a train to a school in Scotland that is filled with dragons, trolls, pixies, elves, goblins, and random adults sometimes burst through and tear the whole castle apart. I think we be good right?

[dim scroll]

I remember not being chronically depressed yeah

[dim scroll]

Imagine how Moaning Murtles fam felt after she died in her second year and was tied to a toilet in the afterlife

[rotund hamlet]

I remember the simple life of coming home from school and turning on my Nintendo GameCube

The stress free days

[verbal maple]

I hope they went to visit since she was a ghost after all, else that be kinda rude

[delicate scaffold]

well i study software engineering rn, so lots of free time for hogwarts legacy🤣🐒

[dim scroll]

everytime they visit they have to leave her a new present 💩

[delicate scaffold]

but yea overall im really glad to see the game is neither being a cash grab nor destroyed by being family friendly and simply incorporates great design choices

if it also doesnt have memleaks it could be a great game🤣

[verbal maple]

been wanting an open world WW game so glad its finally happening in my lifetime

[delicate scaffold]

yessir
