How long did that take you?
hello
Is this mission glitched or smthn I’ve killed the warriors now and it says to defend feldcroft but there’s nothing coming
@humble sequoia i think all the enemmeys respawn didnt finish the game yet but friend told me they do respawn and u can rp aswell xD
idk around 70 hours? the last 15 hours im decorating my room of requirements
Eww, lame house 👎
W hufflepuff
But.. but.. you know their house quest right?
oh okay, is there a quest you do to trigger it? i talked with "Sebastian" about the spell, but after that nothing happened ;-;
it says on yt tutorials that you need to be lvl 16 to do it, like i said i am 19 i just don't know if i missed something
You'll eventually get to it
Can someone help me
ig i will just play the game then, thanks
I’m doing in the shadow of estate mission and I have to defend feldcroft, I’ve already killed all the goblin things and it still says to defend it
You already said you completed the game and were bored 6 days ago. You stated that you probably will never play the game again. And yet you are still here.. You're a true Slytherin, I like you
Haha, if the console was allowed mods like the pc. That would be entertaining.
btw what core thingy is good for level 16
I don't think you can discuss mods here.
Core thingy?
chat is very Slytherin.
Correct
It's gross
talents
Slytherin's are chill
Guys if i want to order a game refund, what should i do?
Not relevant to your level and just depends what you want. Max is 40 talent points so just look at them all
Stay hydrated
Thanks Mr. Ross.
Nice nice.
I LOVE LANA DEL REY TOO
what are you trying to refund and where did you buy your game from?
<@&755190193367023772> So sorry to bother u guys but, what should i do if i want to request a refund because my game keeps lagging because of my low-end pc...
I was about to say.. why did they choose Purple for Ravenclaw 🥸
Lana is amazing!!! currently listening to Love
I brought hogwarts legacy today on instant gaming but it keeps lagging and crashing because of my low end pc
Hi everyone, I'm a french player of hogwarts leagacy. I play on Ps5 and I have a little problem so if anyone would know how to help me it would be very nice.
I've finished the game. I've done all the quests except one. The one that is exclusive to the ps5. I don't know the English name but in French it's called "Occupe toi de ton chaudron." It allows you to have your own shop. But when I go to the place where I am supposed to find penny to start this quest. It doesn't appear. Could someone help me. It's quite frustrating....
Thanks in advance and good game to all!
We can't help, sorry, we are just Discord mods. Recommend contacting the customer support of the store of wherever you bought it from
Okay thank you very much!
whats your platform? steam?
I'll take a look on Google for you.
Yes, but i've bought it through Instant Gaming.
so you activate a code?
how low end are we talking about?
If you bought a key from a 3rd party site you won't get a refund if you redeemed it
Oh so ur tellin me i can't get a refund if i bought it through like instant gaming wich is 3rd party site just to redeem codes
Why would you buy if your PC is low end lol
yes
I mean it is not that bad, but still i've didnt expect to be lagging this much tho...
Specs?
You're stuck with it if you bought it from a site
Im sure you can get it running
finally some good news. but then it was just announced that there are currently no plans to develop new Hogwarts Legacy content
if you bought the game through a 3rd party website, you can't refund.
i3 8100 processor and radeon rx 550 amd
On first pass I thought your username was "Tega Trains Rights."
well now you know to check system requirements first. good lesson to learn
For your own good, stay out of Ohio. :topkek:
I’m very sad about that tbh
i mostly enjoy trains on coastal cities and out western countries
yeye but its not that bad but it still lags so much so its kinda unplayable but nvm
Fantastic beasts was bad tho
I thought it was good
Yes same. I enjoyed it
first one was cool, others were not
Yeah maybe the first one was okay
I'm indifferent towards trains. They rarely ever fit my use-case unless they're metros.
I have only been on a train once.
thats enough. You just need the right settings
2gb or 4gb vram

First was great, second was ok, third was good

Would've liked to seen its conclusion tbh
Guys I have a question. I’m playing on steam with a Nintendo pro controller. I just started playing and my Lumos is placed where my X is (just like the Nintendo controller). However, when I cast it in game, it won’t let me. I have to cast the Y (which is an empty space so far which is confusing). It’s mapping the controller weirdly. Can someone help? Or what’s the best place to ask for help?
Yeah :(
I might not agree but I love your pfp so I'm gonna side with you lol
Yay thanks
ive heard about the same bug with ps4 on steam, it could just be a steam issue
Oh thanks!!!
sorry i wish i could help, i dont have ps4 so i am not sure. if you want you can try #1063582649647628409 there could be someone there
Did anyone find any bugs with the skeletons in the crucio curse tomb?
I have to be honest I've not played the game, so all these questions are very confusing.
Saaaaaaaaaame
Lmao 😂
Tysm!!!
Okay. Thanks a lot 🙃
this sounds terribly frustrating 😭
specs?
Anybody still having issues with the collector's edition trophy on ps5??
(Yes, I've rechecked all the butterfly locations)
It says I have 33/34 field guide pages in the bell tower wing of Hogwarts but I've checked online and I have them all. It even says I have 150/150 on the collections tab. What I'm actually missing is a single conjuration (139/140) when I have 100% complete the game 😩
We are past that 👍
Yeah no we aren't, he hasn't said his specs egotism you have
He has a 4090
But he has
thats really unlucky, theres a bug that makes the last feild guide page in bell tower impossible to get, and a bug that gets you stuck at 139/140 collectibles, you got unlucky and got both
all i see is that he has a low end pc.
wow
wait what dude is lagging with a 4090?
then its a issue of thermal throttling, I'd like to know what his cpu is too
No he said he has an rx 550
I was joking lol my bad
then its his internet
I was lagging with 4080 release week. It’s fine now
Oh wooow 🤦🏻♂️ Is there any fix coming for this? As a completionist it is driving me crazy lol
.
im playing smothly at 60fps on a rx6600m
He answered to that one too
eh, i see, RX550, what was his cpu,
even though I want need it, that rx550 alone is, ruff,
I found out hehe
Rn it’s great. I’m at 110
Doom32
as far as i know theres no fix unless youre on pc :(, i had the 139 collections bug and it also drove me crazy so i know how you feel, you can try to open a thread on #1063582649647628409 to see if anyone has found a fix to those yet, but to my knowledge theres no fix unless pc, i really hope they fix it soon a lot of people have the same issue
hi does anyone know how to go about reporting things to the server? I couldn't really find the rule that explains how to do that or how to go about it
Just finished the whole game
Minimum requirement is rx 470, no biggy
ouch, yeah, there is no way, to play any modern game on that, even low end gaming wouldn't be enjoyable. what a oops moment, buyin a video game
Finished hogwarts legacy, finally can go back to the only good AAA game on pc for the last 2 years, Elden Ring
and minimum requirement cpu is i5 6600, also no problemo here
Good lord is the drama finally over after a week? Woo
I know there was a patch just recently but it didn't change anything
I should go back to that game. I never checked out the mods for it.
Dont jinx it
this game needs a modern cpu, with all the redering and particles and scrpt events
Sounds like you WANT the drama
Whis is merlins cloak not available now wtf....
from what ive read, the game preforms especially poorly on RX500 series, even though they shoould be able to run it, i think your best bet is to wait for a patch, the rx500 series are infamous for being bad with this game
I only bought it this winter on winter sale on steam since I had no time all year last year
future streams will be announced
Drama is fun yolo
It’s great. I played a lot when it released
It's also running crappy on 3070ti paired with ryzen 5, but thats a game fault, i'm not taking the L on componets for this one
bro ive had stable 60+ fps with no crashes for all of my 60 hours, and i have no fancy cooling and a 3060ti, you dont need a supercomputer
I finished the story right before hogwarts legacy release but now I'll go back since there's so much more the game has to offer
Ascendio mod can help performance
modern cpus aren't expensive lol, and thats also a 3060, big dif
@obtuse flame so it will be available again?
then get something better than a ryzen 5 for your 3070 lol
Yes! Chandler has stated on twitter there will be more streams in the next weeks
Like Ryzen 9 ? Lol
why this server is so ass people cant post links images or videos what kind of prison is that
The performance issues are because of a memory leak.
probably a bit overkill but sure i guess
Ryzen 5 performs exceedingly well with the 3070ti, if I upgrade I'll have to do a full revamp to my current setup, Ryzen 9 isn't needed, my issues are due to other componets, like playing on a 1080p monitor insterad of a 2k one
Thank you for coming
images flood chat quickly, trolls can spam images, links can cause people's IPS to be taken etc by trolls and other malicious people.
thx god its not possible
I'm gonna say it, hogwarts legacy on launch felt worse to play than cyberpunk 2077 on launch, on pc at least
yeah but there could be a separate channel for that lets say, its doable
nahhh it wasnt great but cyberpunk is a whole other story
at least cyberpunk had a good story to follow..
no, moderators don't have to waste their day removing images from childish people trolling. messages from trolls are bad enough. many image channels are locked because people take advantage of their ability to post images.
it looks like they disabled that channel or somthing
Can you guess why? 😄
Cyberpunk was so bad it became a meme
we have AI for detecting unwanted content, no human needed
the ai isn't perfect.
Someone help me? Keeps spawning al lmy load save game files under the map and i cant escape to teleport anywhere
well, im getting stable 100+fps ultra settings 1440p on my ryzen 5 5600x and rx 7900 xt
imagine taking any of the characters in hogwarts legacy serikously tho
Idk, cyberpunk ran ass on bad pc's but ran fine on decent pc's meanwhile hogwarts legacy ran shite on almost every pc with an nvidia card. But hogwarts legacy didn't have as much gamebreaking bugs ig
cyberpunk at launch on pc on high end machines was amazing, the main story was a little shorter but honestly it was more vibrant and immersive than hogwarts
This^
Cyberpunk has one of my favorite game narratives, what it followed was amazing, and could have a sequel, however, the gameplay, was downright buggy, but the story was so good, I beat the game, Meanwhile, I have no idea whats going on in the goblin rebellion other then the fact they are in the way of one of my trials
I've never played cyberpunk, maybe a couple years from now
with raytracing off and fps capped at 60 it works fine-ish, some fps drops here and there but overall okay. just disabled raytracing and all xD
Cyberpunk is Decent
Now it is
the goblin story arc gets annoying, because its more like, they get in the way of what makes hogwarts a fun game to play
I had the luck to not encounter game breaking bugs when playing cyberpunk on launch and my 2070 at the time was a high end pc while now it's a mediocre pc it seems. HL is just a slide show for me atm
how do I go about reporting a incident on the server?
message a moderator
Yeah thats what turned me off at first, the scathing reviews
hey hey
Uh oh
cyberpunk story was addicting i played the game twice, I usually do not do this for games
thats about the game though not the server
what happened?
cyberpunk was horrible on release
thanks I'll try doing that I didn't see anything in the rules on how to go about it so wanted to double check
like every game ever, except for elden ring
True. Never mind then
tony hawk was terrible on release, look at it now
still probably terrible
maan I wanted to post a video of something fun I found in the game and share with you guys but I can't 😢
seagulls
I have found a really cool hidden store in the middle of nowhere in the fog, it is not marked in a map
there is a nice conversation with a merchant and you can but a broom here for 5k
and that broom looks very cool, you can't buy it in hogsmeade
in what fog, where is this fog y ou are speakin of
Didn't Elden Ring also have quite a few performance issues on launch? Not as bad as HL though I guess
very north side of the map, its on the left-north of east north ford bog floo flame
can you send me a pic of the location in dms?
Also BOTW on launch was perfect
would nove to post a map image or a video but can't because this server is clown. yeah i can send you a dm @rich vector
I didn't notice any at all, everything performed fine on my end -pc
what's the broom name, we can just google location of vendor
we need an ingame screenshots channel
Seems like only the Japanese know how to make games these days
except consoles via nintendo
dated ahh hardware
I think i know what's he talking about I saw a tiktok on it
Just heard it somewhere, I didn't play it on launch
Hello chat! Does anyone know how to get the quidditch outfit like the one in the broom store?
all i nkow is i unlocked quidditch gloves
challenges I believe
sky scythe broom
apparently the rx550 cost 50 dollars
Ah yea, I do have that one. Cool broom
oh true that one pops up in the google, I was looking for some other collectibles in the google yesterday and wasn't able to find them
for example I don;t know where can I find a small quidditch table for my room or requirement
someone knows how can i fix the texture bugs?
have a wonderful day/night
You meant Leopold Babcocke 😂 He was not really hidden and I had him already revealed. He is west of the floo flame you mentioned and not left north. I was flying all the way to the wall from the floo flame following your direction.... well
yeah but there is no pin on a map so its easy to miss and its in the fog so have to fly close to the ground to see it
Well I can see him on my map. And after using the floo flame and walking out the door you pretty much look at him
oh true now I can see him too
I've been rocking the amber dash broom from start to finish. I like the burning brush lol
anyway. Leopold Babcock. i wonder who's idea was that..
The name of the voice actor for male player character is Sebastian Croft.
Is that sort of a "wink wink" that Sebastian leads you the the undercroft?
or a wink wink to Lara Croft
Or just coincidence 😄
i think they just like to wink
Hello, Does anyone else have a problem with the summons collection? I have collected all the chests and it tells me that I have 1 left
or a wink wink
this game is so good
My game has glitches around certain items, is there somewhere to submit bug reports?
the hat put me in Ravenclaw
Thanks so much mate. I shall report the bug
not what I was expecting lol
sorry for your loss
lol
Did you do the pottermore quiz?
at least its not gryffindor
you take that back

not sure what that is lol
are there rules against commenting about what has been going on about this game's piracy topics (not endorsing) or is it ok?
#🏰choose-your-house look at this channel. The pottermore quiz hase been around for a long time. The game is connected to that. If you do the quiz, find out your house and connect your wizarding world account with your hogwarts legacy account then the hat will always sort you into your house at default
when you get to choose your wand it will also put the default into the wand you got from the pottermore quiz
potterverse
never okay in official servers like this
Hello
now waiting for the other games, Durmstrang legacy uagadu legacy etc
I won't then 👍 its scary how fast piracy is so often done
I'm on my 2nd playthrough doing Slytherin house and managed
impressive how you said you wouldn't, then immediately did
i didnt at all, i didnt share any sort of information
Have y'all noticed that the Field guide pages gives more xp than anything else?
Yo
Is there no VC channels here?
You asked about commenting towards it and now you did. Thats what he is talking about
ok i was meaning like specifically the game, I'll stop
question where can i post a bug report
I got all the pages in hogsmeade went from lvl 12 to lvl 21
where is that cause uhhhhh
click on the hashtag
You're doing good. Welcome
got it
let me post what just happen to me where can i send Pics lol
Not possible at the moment
ahhhhh well im under the map ATM
I’m having trouble at the moment, I’m stuck in a hill side basically. I can’t go to the menu and load another game. I’ve already rest my ps5 and I’m still stuck. If anyone could help that would be great because I don’t wanna start another game yet
Really disappointed that they have no plans for a dlc
IM FREEE
It’s a new game give them some time
in that case you probably dont need to report, its not the first case and I doubt you can give detail on how exactly it happened. They wont be able to fix it for everyone. They cant play the game the same way we all do
all i did was open the map as i opened a door
Care to try to force it again and record it? That might help them more
We will open back again image channels soon, once we can be sure trolls won't bother the server anymore
they always instigate arguments lol.
How do i fix fps drop everytime im in combat
u in performance mode?
Yeahh
well….😭 nvm then
be lucky u can have frame drops and play the game, i haven’t been able to progress in 4 days
Could someone help me with something for some reason I have 149 field guide pages even though I've gotten them all
Look at the map and single out where its missing
I have used revelio everywhere
so jealous, y’all get to play the game 😔
It said 33 out of 34 in the bell tower even though I've checked everywhere and there isn't another page
thats something we can work with
the most common one people miss is the gargoyle
I've also done the professor Weasley assignment for the quest locked one
I need to first have a look myself how we get there again xD hold on
Subtle spoilers much 
<@&755190193367023772>
These people need to grow up
@gaunt steppe Do not post spoilers here. Only warning.
😎

Byeeee. 😄
Your still what?

I'm trans myself and I'm playing the game yes jk Rowling is a horrible transphobe but idgaf if I wanna play the game I'll play it
Facts, you can enjoy the world she made without agreeing with her words 
shes not🥰
She is
She gone guys lol
Funny how Twitter folks come here to do all that even with all that Elon musk said. Supporting his platform. Oh the irony. :0
bc she said biological sex is real?
Alright alright, everyone move on from JKR before this turns to chaos.
Enjoy the peace peeps.
Chaos cannot be controlled better consume it instead
yessss cedric🤣

NOt Cedric Is CedrIc your BoyFriend
no offense but the people who join just to troll honestly have issues
what's happening
Oh I take offense alright

yes🥰
My dog will bite anyone who spoils the game
@crimson hatch give them time to get stuff fixed they been dealing with fires dds attacks bugs in game both systems and trying to patch right now there no current plans but the doesn't mean won't or that they will just wait plus 2 systems arnt out yet

Ok
I can’t believe that umbridge had the nerve to try to send dumbledore you know where
so Everybody and they're mom are telling me that I act just like him and how I basically have his traits and personality, yet I'm a gryffindor and not slytherin
But there no words just current the don't have a current plan on it it didn't mean anything else
Dumbledore should be the one sending umbridge there I bet he know she was villian after that stunt she tried to pulled
pog just got avada kadavra
And Cho I can’t believe she betrayed Harry in the 5th movie no wonder why she got dumped
Watch updates channel and if u want do digging around but there many people here trolling the game
Wat
He would technically be a gryffindor. the whole no fear thing. He doesn't go behind peoples backs so makes sense.
And spreading untrue statements on what there up to
si
This is general chat only meaning we talk about everything in here
... is that the only reason?
I mean, ask him to take the pottermore quiz and find out?
How can I get a fictional character to....?
whats the topic lol.
Max confuse
We have talking paintings for a reason, ask em.
now I got slytherin
snake
slytherin sucks. big L
Gotta love doing a roll dodge just to catch a troll's boulder to the face.
i did that last thursday and it's still all swollen and painful
what...?
oh wait were talking about a game?
💀
is it true that there is a quest somewhere in hogsmeade that gives you a legendary hat that you get from a goblin named grumplenuts?
just set up hogwarts legacy with speech for spell 😎
Be gone troll
me? how am i a troll?
just make sure you say the spell right in the middle of a fight.
Ok grumplenuts
lol my mind goes blank when trying to remember spells in fights. sometimes i just keyboard it instead of voice
son im level 16 and still trying to find alohomora. i asked here cause it didnt sound true
Any one been able to complete all the quests? I can’t seem to find the last one.
did u do the one thats at the highest point of the great hall that you have to fly up to? i saw it on tiktok
Naw I’ll take a look
finally got my platinum trophy 🥺 kinda sad it’s over now
Hm
if you google hogwarts legacy secret quest tiktok im sure u will find the video. but i have no more information to give
you do have to fly up there from a certain courtyard i think though so keep that in mind
I’ll look it up on YT
wow how many hours did it take
Don’t think it’s a thing can’t find it
its entirely possible tiktok lied
wow
wtf is this
yeahhh uh that's potentially really triggering for a lot of people
nope
Enjoy your ban
im also trans but i did not anything like you did
Leave pls @sharp viper
See that what mean trolls lol 😆 🤣
this is not the way to protest the game
you're knowingly causing harm to a great deal of people who are likely similar to yourself
he is already gone....
Is there any other way to get Merlin’s Cloak since they are no longer streaming and the date is almost up
unnecessary and also rude
its going to be recurring sporadically
omg... i really dont understand these people, okay, look i can really understand why people hate jk rowling but there is no point to boycott and insult other people or harassing other people who want to play it... im also transwoman for 5 years and im a harry potter fan!! i dont like jk rowling but i have respect who loves her or who loves harry potter stuffs bc i also love harry potter and hogwarts legacy, WE SHOULD SHOW SOME RESPECT
buying more copys is rude?
@coral stream they going do more they just haven't said when or how
buying more copies that you won't use in order to frustrate someone who doesn't want you to buy the game in the first place
i dont care about the politics, i just wanna do magic and ride wizard ponies
w community tbh. it went number 1 and sold more than 10 mil copies. broke twitch record. tons of recognition and lots of new fans
STOP the troll is trying to turn us against each other
it's not a politics issue why does everyone say it's political
As long as people have respectful to eacher then I got no problems with
well said
Can anyone tell me why there are no labyrinths on my map?
in my opinion, the troll has good intentions but they are going about it in a way that is not good
66hrs according to my save file plus another 2 hrs for each house-specific achievement, so probably like 70 in total
No they have evil intentions
whos they
Sadly there are people who just want spread hate and untrue statements here on the game
i joined this server with the same intentions but by remaining civil and carefully explaining myself i've managed to make a lot less enemies
once the icon appears but i let it go and then it disappeared
nah i think most of the statements are true tbh
Man I kinda wrote off the whole vivarium but it's actually really cool
god these starbursts are stale
But here trying to explain dlcs and stuff no rudely because there a lot mixed crap
you didnt hear alot of those statement have you....?
he gotta open twitter
uh give me an example ig?
Been playing seen day 1 and following and trying to give best answers to questions I can
Lol nah I hate no one
Omniscient Raisin got kicked out of the hufflepuff chat bc he's not allowed to cook
imm still there
your apple pies are lies
like... buying the game supports genocide...? thats a true statement for you?
we evicting omnicient raisin. pulled some slytherin activities
Real and true
Lol come join the dark side freind
Can't shade about our cheese though. 
well, antisemitism encourages jewish genocide and giving money to jkr enables her to donate money to campaigns that are calling for trans genocide so like yeah i can see where they're coming from
bro what..
who let bro cook
my god.... he is one of them.....
man that makes me fume... im pissed cuz where my tax money is going
i live by wisconsin, we got better cheese
Hes in the kitchen but Gordon ramsay is kicking him out
Dang, guess we really suck, huh?
Jokes aside, could you perhaps help me out in #🦁gryffindor 😅
Did some digging apparently only PS5 can complete all quests. Pc and Xbox don’t have the shop quest yet
omniscient cooking with the house dwarves
@worn cargo nope they don't 1 year wait
i mean, im conflicted on how bad buying the game really is bc like. no ethical consumption under capitalism, but also in this case you are well aware the consumption is unethical and it will not really cost you much to not play the game
omg its johnny salahmi
Yooooo Cedric!!!!
Yeah but buying the game is poggers
i disagree
the matrix are after you. just play the game and enjoy it
hello my dark lord
Well wtf am I suppose to do now that I can’t complete all the quests 😂😂
buying the game in no way makes you a bad person
your name should imply that you are in ravenclaw right?
ON CEDRIC DIGGORY
i don't think that's true but i think buying the game is bad
no imma bad bih
Gotta love combining real life politics with a fictional video game.
i answered u over there
how is this political?????
The game is fun and should be experienced but to be able to experience it one has to buy it first unlike communism
ong?
why are ppl tripping over buying a video game and it leads to a whole bunch of politics. arguing over senseless things
so you dont play the game? why are you on this discord then?
Look what boils to it just a game to most people bullying and Harassing isn't cool earther and that what has happenedfrom other side over it @wintry venture
because i originally joined to see how much it would take to get banned but then i realized that wasn't a good approach
yeah fr
How is it not?
nah hes secretly rubbing his hands together as he opens hogwarts legacy. i smell a whole lotta cap
how am i bullying and harassing people???
how is genocide political
(nvm genocide is very often political now that i think about it)
You even failed at getting banned
here ill help speed it up <@&755190193367023772>
Cheers! 
Most just want to injoy it@omniscient.raisin#7206
🙄
it just only proves how much of the problem YOU are and not the community. people are tired of that stance it helps no one fam
Please go be productive with your life.
its a video game man....
how am i harrassing people. how am i bullying people
Grabs popcorn
What happen loving everyone no matter the difference @wintry venture
It's time to move on.
if you wanna hear some real politically controversial statements, this game has far too many top hats
reported
Cease the current conversation.
not enough wand handles
I keep getting mixes of dryppindor or dyperin
Not enough side quests
no one said u were doing any of that. u admitted and showed your true self to everyone here. and u brought up all ur points about jk r and genocide and all that crap.
Yep
im not brushing it off saying those might not be real life problems but its def not discussed here lol
eclipses said i was bullying and harassing people
@candid cairn it just a game lol shouldn't have gone gas far has it has
Oh man they still going
the real question is why are you here if you dont have and dont intend to play the game?
This isn't helping any case thus harassing
@wintry venture @candid cairn@hardy flicker And I said move on, so move on.

WHO LOVE HL!

And wasn't sautéing u but In general that is what has happened
Me
yessss megaaan
i tolerate it, im level 17 and still dont have alohomora or the 2nd spell row
Ayyy, it is now back to 30 secs cooldown, nice!
if you wana let him cook, instigating stuff that's fine by me tbh up to you guys should check huffpuff chat dude was trying to cook in there too
Continue it, the game are more exploring and also relaxing game while also as casual, no need to rush. Just have some fun and you'll enjoy it

I pull up
Hop out at the after party
theres so many locks though.....
Niffler be the new capybara
what have i done to you
Then ping us for problematic members rather than arguing with them.
Good try
leave omni alone. just move on lol as mod said
?
I didn't ping you, I responded to you. Can't have much of a dialogue if it's just swept under the rug

what?
Does anyone know when Avalanche will stream on twitch again, I really want to get Merlins cloak
I mean if you notice someone causing issues, use the moderator ping to alert us so we can address it.
responding also has a ping unless u turned it off lol
No shocked by @drowsy arch and nope
What happen to Hufflepuff?
@hushed dirge @alpine shore hola🗣️
stop
someone mentioned tometime this week apparently to keep on the lookout
Biased. 💀 💀
HUFFLEPUFF on top.
theres also too many chickens everywhere
I turned it off, I ain't got time to have pings on my notis
Best leave them alone.
Screw with the chickens too much and they'll mob you.
holaaa
Yay! thanks so much 😄
Vc Mr crush?
28th i believe
is that why i have a gaggle of chickens just following me and silently judging my failures?
take that with a grain of salt, I only heard it through the grapevine
Not me who realized you can change appearances in the Gears-menu, like after 10 hours of gameplay...
Left me confused that long wondering where my Dark Arts-stuff went 💀
fosho, I will keep an eye out
No. They want you to pick them up so you can jump from high places and slow your descent.
Insert more Zelda jokes here.
the event for the cloak ends on feb 25th though 🥲
Only if they would go live before then. 🥲
i figured it was 24th or 28th that confirms it then they will be live 24th
how do u know which streamers are streaming that specific drop
fingers crossed its the 24th then!
its just avalanche
The Cloak? Only the official Avalanche channel.
ohhh dang. ill be sire to keep on the lookout
does the other drops add buffs to ur stats? or just cosmetic
They haven't said just there going to redo it
you can get the other 4 drops on regular streams though if you dont have those
what are the other drops besides merlin?
there are glasses, a hat, a scarf, and a lilac outfit! watch for 30 mins to get each
are they legendary tier or just collectables?
Just collectibles
Dont know if they affect stats though. Just collectibles I think
Belive so
i think collectables are just skins with no stats attached
hello.
They do go away forever after the 25th or so, so it's worth it imo to grab them while you can.
Just select any stream who's playing the game with drops enabled and let it run in the background. 
Lest they say other wise
ah this is why i want merlins cloak so badly lol
Lot of bugs there looking at right now
I just found out I'm 5'8
Same... 🥲
the merlin set will come back sporadically according to a blog post i read
They post when they are@simple lagoon
Oh I hope that is true then 🤞
@drowsy arch update channel for information
Fastest why I seen them say anything
And digging around web for
is it true that they said they're not planning on doing any dlcs?
what are the shiny white things that spawn when i kill something and why cant i pick them all up?
No just no current plans @vital pollen
oh alrighty
media in germany been quite hyping that up into saying there'll be none at all
I think it would be a really stupid decision if they didn’t have some sort of dlc
i heard ministry of magic dlc
@vital pollen they have bugs to fix still that patch didn't fix patches 2 on pc 1 one ps5 and a dds attacks on and twich bugs drops let them fix stuff
@vital pollen now it doesn't mean they won't or will
yea, one point's that and another would be in my mind for them saying that there wont be dlcs but another part of the whole series
thats cool
@vital pollen it just not planned right now due to
Unfortunately, I highly doubt there will be any substantial dlc 🥲
but seriously if someone could tell me what those white balls are that drop from enemies i kill
tbh id like to see some more dark magic stuff with seb, sry id thats mentioned too often here xD
theyre blue
ancient magic
Best char by far
oooo i thought it was xp i was leaving behind
how many harry potter books were out when the first movie dropped? anyone know
that would be fun!! I feel like there will be something focused on dementors/patronus since the models for those are already made
absolutely obsessed in the autistic (which i am) way with his entire storyline lol
if you cant pickup it means your pool is full
whats sebs last name again?
3 I think
Fr, it's often better than the main story too
hey guys does any of you have any of these spellcrafts?
decorated table (not huge decorated table), armchair, standing clock
i really need them but cannot find them :<
nice, thanks mate
it really is
@vital pollen I like to believe there will be something just wait and see
@simple lagoon sallow
i just really hope so
he has to have some relation to voldy
their locations are randomised so you just gotta keep finding the collection chests
hey yall
IGN said there will likely be no dlc in an interview
spoilers if it is? ominis has to do something w voldi, not seb
@latent sail no just not currently planned
noooo there has to bee😭😭😭
im level 17 and doing the jackdaw quest, i have no idea about anything yet
oh god why 😦
idk variety I guess
Collection chests are dumb, as I can't even do my ror correctly
If read it just not planed lot
yeah I spent a lot of time to find these additional spellcrafts, found many but cannot find these 3 its such a pain in the ass
just googled it, i think media's just destroying some hope and getting things out of context. they just said its not planned YET
It didn't mean one way or the othere
Should be able to buy them it's hella annoying
Is steam having issues?
Up to 50k from my puff poaching distribution 😂😂
for me it doesnt
I can’t seem to connect online for some reason sometimes?, not sure if steam is having some problems behind the scenes.
hmm, that sounds more like a technical problem. have u checked ur provider and other resources?
@humble sequoia yeah bugging
I’m all connected, tv is fine, my phone is fine, not sure what is going on
do you breed them or catch? its so annoying they all run away when I try to catch one
It's steam for sure, my download for the patch was hella screwed up
It’s annoying. All my games are there lol. Ugh.
oh damn, then i wont close my game atm and download at the patch. without downloading all seems fine rn
I catch em
someone remind me next time to go sell extra gear before i go on a quest
anyone else had the problem that the game just deleted itself a few days ago? i was PISSED at the least
@humble sequoia that one of the many fires their trying to fix right now
complete these merlin trials, you will get more gear slots but honestly not many more
@simple lagoon i need to stop forgetting that myself lol
yeah it maxes at 40 gear slots
Not enough 😂
it should be 40 per type of clothing
this would be enough xD
Eh, I mean you only ever need the latest legendary in the slot. All traits you kind of just craft on
And no option for marking items to sell is criminal
Eldenring had so did skyrim out the gate and skyrim still has bugs
whats y'alls favorite trait to put on ur clothing?
Oh yeah bulk sell would have been great, or atleast a quick sell
Unforgivable is the best trait no doubt, second is herbology
I put expelliarmus on everything
It just going to take time for them to
cant do merlin trials yet. not far enough along the main story
yeah 6x unforgivable 3 is a scary damage increase
sup my brother
My build 😁
true
Idk ya’ll. It’s either my pc connection is having issues. Or it’s steam.. Cause I’m connected now.. 🤨🤣
like yo ujust auto attack people for 400/800 damage
Just be Patient they've had issues left and right from the 7 on
Fr lmaoo
Has anyone heard anything about pvp being a strong possibility in the future?🤞
Alguém tá tendo muitas quedas de fps no pc?
Let them We'll get out to the best of their abilities then talk about more
Not happening unfortunately
btw, what ive been wondering: is there a developers given reason that ravenclaw has no own quests? im not ravenclaw but id like to know
it has its own quest
i was wondering, these treasure vaults always give piece of clothing right? if I'm looking for spellcrafts then I can ommit them?
Bc you get a secret roof entrance smhh
Sad. I wanted to avada kedava some people.
@vital pollen I know they cut a bit
makes sense
Why don't slitherin get a cooler common room
@vital pollen Dude to how long it was taking
you could always go for the poacher camps
whaaat i LOVE the slytherin room
the ravenclaw only quest is called "olivanders heirloom"
anyone have a xbox account that has the hog warts game i wanna set the game to my page so i can have it dm if you can please and thank you mane
@lucid root 5 years plus delays
they mostly give these spell upgrades or sth i think (traits)
wym? slytherin common room is dope
Like the Puffs definitely won the best common room design
@vital pollen they may add later
ive been seeing tiktoks saying its trash, like wtf xD
All of them are perfect in what they're supposed to represent
how do i see how much money i have without going to a shop?
@vital pollen a little bit of story and stuff but not much
Yeah atleast we didn't get worst common room like Gryffindor
our common room is water cooled, and has a massive metal snake that vibe checks you before you can enter, we also have a giant squid protecting our common room
Gears
Go to gear
ty lads. i have so many potion ingredients i wanted to make sure i could buy some more recipes
Gryffindor room looks insane on max settings bro, lighting with the castle vibes are sick
im literally not broke in wow, wow classic, new world, and many more. but hogwarts got me begging
@vital pollen#397 they where more worried about dead line because of the 2 delays already
Yeah it's not bad, but it's the least visually pleasing one.
can I still avada kedavra after choosing not to?
So there is no point in keep extra legendary pieces right? Just wear the best ones and sell the rest? I was hoping for a storage spot in room of requirements but looks like that’s not happening.
None at all unless sithin 1-2 levels
Nah just sell, you get the appearance forever once you unlock it
alot of things were cut yes unfortunately, there is no denying it, especially the endings.
@clear sorrel It's not that it won't it's that it may take time for them to do some of the changes necessary lot fires
I have faith they will come out with dlc expansions that will fill the game with more life
i wanna cry about this. is there any way to see more about alternative endings and everything else?
theres plenty of life, mainly chickens and spiders. i want more story
You’re right. I’m hoping there will be expansions since it’s such a great game. Almost all of my gaming friends are playing & love it.
@long yacht in time probably
they dont matter, none of them do, the game kinda just... stops.
Hate to burst your bubble guys but the chances of expansion are about 10-20 percent
🤣😭, that’s what I meant, but yeah, definitely would’ve been cool to have 3v3 matches in online duels
i wanna cry even more now lol
This ain't Ubisoft or cd project
True. Assassins creed will always reign in open world rpg
Let them work out bugs and when they see 20 million they may change
They made money out of no reason there shouldn't be
Only odyssey in that right. RDR2 has been the king of owrpg for a while and will be for prob another couple years until gta6
im not religious but ill pray for more stuff. if it isnt a dlc, i need another part of the game lol
I'm not sure which chat to post this in, or if anyone has already asked, but the twitch stream for the merlin cloak? There's nothing on their Twitch Schedule. 😅
i feel like even if theres dlc theres going to at least be another game
But that's not A guarantee on anything
exactly what im saying
@last escarp they redoing it just haven't said when
Thanks for saying this as it's the most likely option. They will almost definitely put their money into a future game rather than DLC
Ah. Okay. Thank you!
im currently in a quest with poppy, and u guys keep distracting me with interesting arguments xD
I feel like that’s a smaller statistic on rdr2 but then again I never got into that game at all, so like maybe mines biased 🤣😭😭. But nah there was a few hits for assassins creed honestly. Brotherhood. Odyssey. Valhalla is pretty fire although it kinda just copy’s odyssey in the character aspect. I dunno tho. As far as expansive open world rpgs go. Assassins creed holds value.
Dlc or another game could go Either way
I feel like they setting up for a sequel
i believe another game would make more money
Though this one sold a lot
son i just decapitated a knight with his own sword
Why show us so many pointless memories about other characters etc extended story arches that don’t exactly finish.
So like I was saying earlier the best thing any of us can do is to sit and wait and see what happens
Yes, but ubisofts open world's arent alive. One of the biggest issues with Hogwarts legacy atm is that it's like a c Valhalla. I do like how some of it goes along with the odyssey system of open world tho and gear system
They really haven't given an answer one way or the other And me I would love a companion system and I know it was there
That’s valid I can’t argue that. What’s a bunch of space if it isn’t filled with talking npcs and actual visual content
I would love to take them on adventures
Exactly
That’s kinda where legacy did it right. Because the world actually feels alive around you even tho you’re alone.
That’s also where Pokémon scarlet and violet went wrong. Seriously massive open world with like 0 reasons to go anywhere besides the city’s 🤣🤣😭
mostly cause of the chickens
But right now has is they can't just ignore you But you're not doing a quest
I'm gonna keep it real here and say that Hogwarts legacys open world is not the best at all. It truly shines with it's simple yet surprisingly complex combat alongside a perfectly crafted Hogwarts and hogsmead
legacy game of the year
And the kittys I throw off the map with gardiumleviosa 🤣🤣😭🙌🏼💀
But that's what I would want with an update not necessarily
when i go to click something and accidentally pet a cat 🗿🗿
LITTERALLY TOT 🤣🤣😭😭
Would drag seb threw
its always the orange cat
But yes that's all I really want is a companion system of sorts Not for them to continue to ignore me but they actually have dialog
If a buy a steam offline acc, can I update the game when patches come?
i know nothing about steam tbh
This game runnable on pc yet?
@sleek hinge steam is weird on what will and won't and for some yes others no
i mean it is yes but idk if people are still having issues
@sleek hinge and yeah there still bugs going
someone tell me why there is a floo flame in a long lost tunnel that likely predates floo flames
Th@sleek hinge there working on it right now
if i had to guess i'd say someone else was using it
Glad it runs great on my ps5 😊
I haven’t ran into any frame rate or stability issues concurrently
amateur, im playing this on my n64
Yeah ok
I’m on the Xbox series S I’m playing on fidelity setting.
what does fidelity setting mean?
the game has been running surprisingly well on my 1060 which is unexpected considering a few months ago my card didn't meet the minimum specs (they changed the min requirements afterwards)
is this for the ps5?
i think xbox only? im on pc, i was just asking @long yacht
it should be to favour graphics over performance
I hate the ocean and water, that's the ironic part
so lower frame rate?
I got slytherin 6 times and gryffindor 5 times
yeah and then there's performance mode and balanced mode but it might be diff from platform to platform
Can I still get Avada Kadava after basically declining it (without realising)? @ me
Why do male in this game looks hella cool while the female looks awkward and sorry, kind of ugly? Is it the face? The stance? Hope they fix it soon 🥺
as far as i know once u decline u cant get it
likely a result of the devs being mostly male if i had to guess (idk if thry actually are)
thats so dumb.. Like at least make it obvious that you lose it??
I assumed it was just basic character dialog
im still convinced the male voice is radcliffe
radcliffe is pretty anti harry potter
it might just be that i have limited experience with the british, but it sounds like him
Yeah I think it’s just people equating the British accent to the character. To me the voice is higher pitched than Radcliffe (aside from when he was an actual kid in the films)
who pinged me
are you a waterfaring vessel?
no
guys am trying to know the player ccount of hogwarts legacy players is there an official source for that?
then it wasnt sonar
whales use sonar too
You can see the count on steam for current players but otherwise on the consoles - I don’t think so
ive checked steam chart but there are 3 sources that have different answers ....2m...10m.....1m XD
Yeah SteamDB steam charts is probably the most accurate you’re going to get.
yo
Before I buy this can someone pls tell me if my laptop with these specs can run it: idc about gfx just want high fps and smooth gameplay

yeah you can run it
The game eats ram so 32GB might be better but you should be able to run it. Game recommends 32GB for med/high graphics
if your goal is to just run the game at a decent framerate you're fine with what you have
im on 16GB running on high with no issues
I have no idea what any of that means
i have 128gb because i went to gringotts pretending to be harry with polyjuice potion and robbed a thew coins
I wouldnt be surprised if the answer was no, but has there been any news about a fix coming for the robo voices?
Weird my friends were maxing out their ram on high with 16GB. Maybe it’s hardware dependent.
im entirely AMD with a 6GB gpu
Not that I know of
fun thing is the game takes more vram then normal ram ^^
poppy a real one i used crucio and she hasnt snitched
i have 16 gb of ram and 6gb of vram and i play the game while youtube videos play on my 2nd monitor
got 20gb vram and game uses 15gb
wtf gpu has 20gb vram?
rx 7900 xt
I have a question. I recently caught a unicorn. Does anyone know if you can ride it?
ooooo u fancy
depends if you feed it cake, needs that poopin rainbow power

whole build cost me <$900
same lol ^^ old card was a 2070
Hello everyone!
Just out of curiosity have any Slytherins got their hands on the Avada Kedavra mod? Everyone says its on Nexus but I cant find it to save my life.
I have not
my last card was a geforce, dont remember the model but it was still ok when i rebuilt
what does the mod do?
Allows you to fight Teachers and kill Npcs. I suppose like students and such.
I know you wouldnt want to kill any main questline students. But still. lol.
i think it turns avada into a basilisk
I’d destroy all the npc’s in a new file
Howdy Chat
Howdy chat
Howdy bold
Hello there
Y’all help me out 😭 there’s a TikTok user that said if my comment gets 100 likes he’ll gift me a copy of hogwarts legacy
Ive already beaten the game as a Ravenclaw. But I wanna go all out as a Slytherin.
do houses really matter?
Do it
does anything in the world matter
some dialogue and side quests ig + outfits
I know that Azkaban is exclusive to Hufflepuff. So im sure there are many thing that depend on the house.
Where is Azkaban?
is it possible to switch houses? i got stuck with gryffindor and id like to see azkaban
A real potterhead would play the whole game as Gryffindor and then again with a different house 😌
Just start a new game i believe. Im going to start a new one for a four houses.
A real one
i have twin toddlers son, i dont have time to play the game 4 times...
Fair enough. Just restart the game then
Sorry i didnt know.
Its not much to look at tbh
its all good duder
Right
I have 16 GB, the game usually uses like 12-13 for me, not seen it use 15, but guessing you might be playing at a higher resolution
ultra settings 1440p max ray tracing
I'm basically playing at 1080P as far as VRAM is concerned I think. 4K, but DLSS Performance, so that's a 1080P native res
I have RT on High, not Ultra, but everything else is on Ultra
I tried 4K native ultra everything, but uhh, it was playable in some areas, and an absolute slideshow in others
There's not to many affordable cards in the 15GB -20 GB range
I have the rtx 3080 Founders edition 10 GB it plays it fine at 1440p ultra
4080, 4090, 3090, 3090 TI is it for NVIDIA on desktop, then there's 3080, 3080 Ti, and 4090 Mobile variants
This kinda like guys comparing the size of their truck and engine lol
I've got a 4090 Mobile, which yeah, definitely not what I'd call "affordable", but I need a portable device, and want it to be as powerful as it can be
Yea but I'm running a 16 core alderlake 12900ks
Complete custom Razer system with liquid coolers
Pretty sure my laptop's cpu can give a 12900KS a run for its money actually, laptop performance has come a long way
yeah, nvidia is way too expensive with their 20gb cards
I don't think so with custom liquid cooling heat sinks and overclocked :/
Might not be quite as fast, but I don't think it loses by a ton
i9-13980HX, 8 P-cores, 16 e-cores, it runs all 8 P-cores at 5.2 GHz, and the 16 e-cores at 4.0 GHz, can do 5.6 GHz for single-threaded tasks, but only on two cores. Scores higher on Cinebench R23 than anything from 12th gen
Not sure your 12900KS gets once overclocked, but stock 12900KS scores around 27,700ish on Cinebench R23, my laptop's cpu can get around 34,000 when undervolted
It loses badly to 13900K ofc, but it's the same silicon as a 13900K, just with reduced power draw
hello
I pre-ordered my game back in December from BestBuy. PS5 physical deluxe edition. I didn't get a pre-order bonus and after a week of fighting with BestBuy they say it's a Warner Brothers problem. Anyone know how I can get them?
No idea!
I am one spellcraft away from having all and I really need this one
- standing clock
ahhh I unlocked all trackable chests, followed all butterfly spots and I still missed something
ah no idea sorry
Like many, I’ve been waiting for a truly excellent Harry Potter game since I was in the third grade. In that time, we’ve gotten some respectable LEGO Potter games, an underwhelming EA Sports Quidditch game for some reason, and even suffered through the fevered nightmare that is Harry Potter Kinect. But none of these has come close to fulfilling that fantasy of receiving a Hogwarts admission letter that opens the door to a secret world. With Hogwarts Legacy, I’m happy to say that we finally got a Harry Potter game that captures some of that magic. Its open world map absolutely nails the vibe of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, it has spellcasting combat that’s stupefyingly good, the characters that inhabit it are charming and unforgettable, and it is positively brimming with countless diversions to soak up dozens of hours of your time. It may not be the most impressive technical achievement and it is certainly cursed with a lack of enemy variety, but none of Hogwarts Legacy’s issues can cast a Descendo charm on this triumphant visit to the Wizarding World.
Right in line with most Harry Potter tales before it, Legacy’s plot has more holes than a fishnet stocking and sorta just expects you to accept that its magical world makes no sense. This mystical third-person action-adventure RPG begins with you transferring to Hogwarts as a fifth-year witch or wizard (for unexplained reasons) to do everything from attending classes to fighting giant spiders with a magical stick to flying around on a hippogriff. The fantastic character creator has plenty of options for you to craft your ideal witch or wizard (apart from a fairly limited voice selection), and as soon as you do they’ll immediately become entangled in a conflict between the Wizarding World and an evil goblin. On top of that, because being in a secret society of wizards is apparently not exciting enough, you soon discover that you’ve got some freaky super-charged magical abilities that allow you to do extra cool stuff that also isn’t really explained.
If you’re like me, you’ll roll your eyes during moments when you’re introduced to 100 years’ worth of dead characters lecturing you from paintings about the importance of some stuff that happened a long time ago and how you have to save the world or whatever. But once that’s over with Legacy mostly redeems itself with a fantastic cast of non-painting characters that help boil things down into a not-too-convoluted good-guys-versus-bad-guys conflict that ends up being an enjoyable tale, even if it's not particularly profound or original.
The characters you’ll spend most of your time with are the classmates who will befriend you on campus, accompany you on certain quests, and help you hone your abilities as a magic user. Most are memorable and instantly endearing, like Sebastian the cocky and morally pliable Slytherin, or Natsai the clever and unflappable Gryffindor, and spending time with them and improving your social links through their relationship questlines made my stay at Hogwarts all the more enjoyable.
The elephant in the room with Hogwarts Legacy is Harry Potter’s creator, J.K. Rowling, whose comments about transgender people in recent years have left a sour taste in the mouths of many current and former Potter fans, both at IGN and in the world at large. This has driven some to call for a boycott of the Wizarding World altogether – including Hogwarts Legacy, though Rowling was not directly involved and there are good reasons (both in-game and out) to believe the developers at Avalanche don’t necessarily share her views. Regardless, IGN has always and will continue to champion human rights causes and support people speaking with their wallets in whatever manner they choose.
As critics, our job is to answer the question of whether or not we find Hogwarts Legacy to be fun to play and why; whether it’s ethical to play is a separate but still very important question. So just as in virtually all cases, we’re choosing to expose and address the views of the franchise creator separately from our consideration of the work of the hundreds of game developers and evaluate Hogwarts Legacy as it stands, leaving behind-the-scenes context to be considered in addition to that evaluation, rather than in place of it, so that it can be weighted according to your own values.
Unexpectedly, I even found myself looking forward to hanging out with my professors, whether it was my main man Professor Fig, who serves as both something of a mentor and as a sidekick, or the wise-cracking charms teacher Professor Ronen, who made me love him mostly by making fun of me. Each of these characters feels like an indispensable piece of the school, and you can find them wandering the halls doing their thing and choose to spend time with your favorites. It’s a huge and important part of the Hogwarts fantasy that Legacy just knocks out of the park.
Even better, though, is the world itself, which is just packed with nearly everything I wanted in a Potter game and more. You’ll find yourself exploring Hogwarts’ stone-cobbled halls and secret passageways, flying around the Forbidden Forest on a broomstick, and exploring dark caves lit only by the glow of your Lumos spell. The developers at Avalanche have so brilliantly captured the look and feel of the Wizarding World that I was amazed at just being there, no matter what trivial errand they had me wrapped up in.
That immersion can occasionally be broken by Legacy’s dicey performance, though, which suffered from just about every issue that makes IGN’s performance review team cry during my time playing on PlayStation 5. Those greatest hits include framerate inconsistency, weird issues where the lighting switches from too dark to too bright, aggressive pop-in while moving around the map quickly, and more. There’s even this weird thing where every door in Hogwarts has a brief loading screen. It’s understandable since there’s so much packed into this beast of an adventure, but the PS5’s promises of the death of loading screens haven’t quite been lived up to here as it’s clearly struggling to keep up with the spellcraft and whimsy of the Wizarding World.
Beyond the performance issues, Legacy is also a fairly glitchy adventure in general. You’ll probably fall through the map a time or two, or see a character or object get caught in the environment, or maybe even have the person you’re talking to just up and walk away from you in the middle of a conversation, leaving you to speak with the empty spot they were standing in for about two minutes. I didn’t encounter anything game-breaking or so common that you’ll likely want to curse its name, but things like this do happen enough to be an irritation.
As someone who finds the wand-whipping combat in the movies fairly dull, I was very concerned about Hogwart Legacy’s ability to keep my attention after slinging spells for dozens of hours, but I can admit when I’m wrong – the combat is fantastic, challenging, and utterly captivating. There’s a lot more to it than shooting balls of light out of a stick! Instead, the trick is in dodging and countering enemy attacks while pulling off creative combos. For example, you can pull enemies towards you with Accio, light them on fire with the close-range Incendio, then blow them away with the explosive Bombarda spell. Chaining together abilities to make your opponents look like complete fools never stops being amusing, especially as you unlock talent tree perks that enhance your skills with modifiers that make your elemental spells fork to nearby enemies or transform into AoE attacks.
Many of the combat encounters are legitimately challenging too – I’ll admit I died my fair share of times while trying to show off a new set of spells or neglecting to see the goblin sneaking up behind me. Improving your skills and figuring out which spells work best for you is a really entertaining process, filled with experimentation and the occasional maiming. There’s even a perfect parry mechanic, which begs to be mastered by tryhards like me looking for that extra dopamine hit that comes from a timely block at the last possible second. You’ll also be forced to change up your tactics regularly, since many enemies have color-coded shields that can only be broken by spells of a particular type. For example, enemies with a red shield won’t be damaged until you hit them with a fire-based spell, which means you’ll need to keep a few of those handy.
While the combat system never stops being entertaining, the creatures you fight soon run out of tricks up their sleeves. You’ll see the same familiar faces a lot, as you spend an enormous amount of your time fighting dark wizards, spiders, and goblins. Every once in a while they’ll trot out the same repeated troll enemy or nondescript magical suit of armor as well, but the enemies Legacy throws at you wear thin pretty quick.
bruh just copy pasting lol
That’s a shame, since the Harry Potter universe is known for having all manner of beasts and villains to face off against, and yet here there’s practically no variety. What’s especially weird is that it’s not like there aren’t other enemy types to be found in Legacy – you’ll find giant, evil frogs and zombies roaming about, to name a few – it’s just that they’re scarcely used in any of the main dungeons or levels. Instead, they send about 500 spiders at you in a row, which is a baffling decision.
Because you can only have so many spells equipped at any time, the one part of combat that’s a bit of a drag is the somewhat clunky process for switching between, which takes some serious getting used to. You learn quite a number of spells by the end of the roughly 30+ hour campaign and constantly have to reslot which ones you’ve got equipped; keeping them organized and committed to memory becomes a challenge in its own right, and not the kind I relish.
No ^
When you’re not lighting spiders on fire, you’ll need some lighter activities to spend your time with, and it’s actually kind of crazy just how many side tasks Legacy gives you! You could spend hours decorating your very own personal space in the Room of Requirement; go around catching, grooming, and breeding all manner of fantastic beasts (if you know where to find them); practice your gardening or potion making; go shopping in Hogsmeade; become a champion duelist in an underground dueling ring with your classmates; or even go full Voldemort and decide you want to become a master of the Dark Arts by learning the Killing Curse and other unspeakable acts (which goes about as well as you’d expect if you choose to pursue it). It’s not just easy to waste dozens of hours goofing off – I found it downright difficult to not get distracted by a dozen things and forget what I’d originally set out to do. I was able to get through the main story in 32 hours, but even though I was in something of a hurry to complete it I found staying on task almost impossible. As soon as I finished I immediately went back to do more side quests and continue exploring (which you can do freely after finishing, since there doesn’t appear to be a New Game+ mode currently).
<@&755190193367023772>
I will say though, with the wizarding buffet of endless ways to waste your time, it’s a pretty glaring omission that Quidditch is nowhere to be found. The lore reason for a lack of the iconic broom-based sport is that it’s been banned for one year thanks to some pureblood wimp who got injured last year, but that feels like an effort to paper over the absence of a major aspect of Harry Potter’s time at Hogwarts that the developers must’ve just not had time to include.
One of the ways you can completely forget about the looming goblin threat in the main story is by engaging in the over 100 side quests that are packed into the adventure. Not all of these diversions are equally entertaining – some are definitely your basic “go here and kill/collect this thing” errands that do little more than burn some time – but many feature one of the aforementioned awesome characters asking for you to solve their problems or help them get into good ol’ fashioned mischief. Those are especially great reasons to slow down and immerse yourself in this world, like when you go to class to learn how to pot plants that try to eat you or help a classmate who’s getting picked on. Legacy just gives you lots of reasons to drink in the experience of being a student at Hogwarts, and the novelty of that doesn’t wear off even when you’ve been sent on some meaningless fetch quest.

obliviate
aresto momentum
rivelio
thats alot of words
bet u didnt read it
i did
I dont know how we got around before flu powder was invented 😛
I played the game for over 60 hours and never once fell through the map.
My eyes hurt
apparating probably
going for a shiny unicorn rn
why this wizard chess table plays fool's mate on repeat, its so short and unsatisfying to watch you could do something more advanced guys 😐
im sure a mod will come out for something more advanced
To be fair, I have gotten stuck in a cave.
actually its not even a fools mate but pretends to be. ahhh
im at 70 hrs pc and not a good pc havent had any bugs graphics crashes or stuttering or anything wrong
it also helps that you’re often appropriately rewarded for your efforts, whether that’s earning some gear to upgrade your stats, cosmetic items to improve your swagger, or best of all: new spells, the ultimate carrot in a game where you're often limited only by what magic you know how to cast. For example, one sidequest gives you the Alohomora spell, which – in classic Metroidvania fashion – allows you to literally unlock doors and get into places previously inaccessible to you. Collecting spells goes a long way to opening up the map and giving you a better bag of tricks during combat, and I found myself positively thirsting for as many of these game-changing abilities as I could get my grubby paws on.
The gear that you’ll find doesn’t really allow you to create full-on “builds” per say, but you’ll gain some resistances and buffs to your character and can spend some time upgrading and modifying your best items for minor improvements. None of it is particularly game-changing stuff, but it managed to capture my attention enough for me to spend a good chunk of time looking at my equipment. Of course, the real loot game is about the cosmetics, a fact that Legacy seems to be keenly aware of since they find ways to hide cool-looking clothes all over the place. These items don’t have any gameplay impact, but pimping out my Slytherin legend to outshine all the kids from the lesser houses is more than enough of a motivation. Best of all, you can overwrite the appearance of any gear you’ve got equipped with the look of anything you’ve acquired so far, which is just fantastic.
words
However, if you’re as much of a loot hoarder as I am and were hoping to gather up all the treasures in the world and dump them in a closet like in Skyrim you’ll be painfully disappointed by Legacy’s abysmal inventory space, which only lets you hold a couple dozen items and aggravatingly fills up in no time at all. This means you’ll miss out on tons of items early on unless you go to your menu and decide which precious treasure to throw overboard every time you open a chest. Later on you can upgrade your inventory ever so slightly, but even then it never stops being a major pain in the cockatrice to juggle your inventory all the time.
Verdict
In nearly every way, Hogwarts Legacy is the Harry Potter RPG I’ve always wanted to play. Its open-world adventure captures all the excitement and wonder of the Wizarding World with its memorable new characters, challenging and nuanced combat, and a wonderfully executed Hogwarts student fantasy that kept me glued to my controller for dozens of hours. It’s certainly weighed down by technical issues, a lackluster main story, and some poor enemy variety, but even those couldn’t come close to breaking its enchanting spell over me.
bruh
TLDR
whos gunn read that
man just typed in hogwarts legacy review into chat gpt and is copying it
Probably on his computer
man is a true NPC
I wonder what he writes about when he doesn't like something... what that must look like
lol
are we going to ignore the fact that we break into peoples home and steal gold
Yes it's pretty cool. Kinda like gta 5 when you go to the store but now u have a wand
yeah what bugs me is that npcs are not even saying a word when they are seeing it
also when you cast unforgivables when professors are nearby
@atomic rampart lol probably looks something like this...
Disappointed.... :/

Anyone know if Phoenix can be shiny?
I just restarted my save (hadn't gotten too far, just wanted a different wand lol) and the Gobstones quest isn't showing up for me, does anyone know why that might be?
I unlocked Levioso and Accio, and I know Accio is the spell you use to get the Gobstones, but Zenobia doesn't appear on the map where she is supposed to
is
Does anybody have duplicate brooms or the Npcs that ask for potions that don’t show up
somewhere in hogwarts with a icon
Why can’t I not find the In the Shadow of the Study quest
I looked all around Hogwarts, but she isn't there
you know I love the ttrpg Blades in the Dark where factions argue over their terf
your terf can grow by taking it from other factions
they should go by skyrim rules

Good morning
Good morning sunshine 🌞
did you have any luck fixing this? i also have this problem :(
anyone have a xbox account that has the hog warts game i wanna set the game to my page so i can have it dm if you can please and thank you mane
Hey guys, has anyone else got stuck under the map on the game? I’ve tried running around practically everywhere hoping I’ll come across a place where I can mount or open the map to travel but I’ve had no luck. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the game. Tried going back to older saves. Nothing’s helped. I’ve looked online and there seems to be no official solution yet apart from people suggesting to wait for a patch. Trying my luck here in case anyone’s managed to find a workaround. (I’m playing on Xbox)
sorry but is there anyway to learn reducto? isit a later part in the game?
Are they planning on giving the players another chance at the Merlin Robes anytime soon?
When are they going to update the game so we can respect our talent points I can't see this being a permanent solution it just looked like an oversight they forgot

Hi everyone, does anybody know when the winter season starts? I am at the start of second trial right now and I would like to keep the Autumn as long as possible, but also want to learn new spells. How far in the story can I go?
According to Chandler Wood (@FinchStrife) twitter we just have to wait for another one Avalanche stream.
I need help

Yea that’s what I heard but will the announce it before hand? Bc I work 2 jobs plus wife and 3 girls. So it’s hard to twitch if I don’t know the times lol

I want pizza
Y
Oops
K wait, a pizza is coming in 30 minutes
Accio pizza!
When is multiplayer coming
Modders are working on it
Banned
Well don't expect official multiplayer 😂 guys who made multiplayer for Skyrim doing it right now for hogwarts. I would not expect multiplayer being officially added unless it's some quidditch dlc but the Devs for now confirmed no DLC is planned so even if it's a long wait
@coarse kite no news yet on this just watch updates and stuff
@brittle thorn that just currently not planned But if I had to guess is to why it's because there's bugs andfires needing to be put out right now everywhere
Yeah definitely
Ghost of our love quest? Where do I go?
Follow map
Trying to figure out which bridge. I know it’s in the forbidden forest, but not sure what bridge
What happens when u open one of those legendary chest but ur inventory is full it doesn’t let me open it again smh
Hey, I have a question. In the game I am not able to skip the day or the night. Although there is this option in the key mapping, when I switch to the map to skip the night, this is not shown to me as a feature and is not available. Does anyone know how I solve this problem? it's really annoying.
PS: I play on PC and have the game on STEAM. There is No F or anything else to do this feature
How do I cancel leviso? As in drop an object.
Alt f4
You cannot change the day/night cycle in some quests. So make sure no quest is selected. It happened to me only once.
Real and true
I speak only facts
Descendo
Thanks.
The funny thing is when you dont have descendo, that freaking sheep is probably floating somewhere in my world 💀
have less women in life
You will get the item again after making some space in your inv. However, sometimes the chest gets bugged and doesn't open but that is very rare. Most of the time, you get the item without any problem. Just keep in mind though, if you opened the chest once with full inv, the item will spawn. That means if you are, say, lvl 20, then the item will spawn as lvl20 and if you open the chest later as, say, lvl 30, the item will still be lvl 20 cause you already opened it once. You can still obtain it though. There is a chance that the chest gets bugged and might not open but it is rare and usually gets fixed by itself after certain period of time
Lol. I used transformation charm on almost every animal and then leave them floating XD (sadly they change back to real form after a while)
Imagine a chess mini game dlc 😍
would love that. there were 2-3 caves with chess puzzle, not much of a puzzle though cause you only have to move one piece, but it looked cool and got my hopes up
