Administrator AquilaTempestas Posted March 11, 2020 Administrator Report Share Posted March 11, 2020 There's been rumours circulating for awhile now about a Harry Potter open world RPG game. Basically, you can be part of any of the houses, compete for points and explore the world of Harry Potter. I think this would be super cool. The games were okay, but really limiting since you had to be Gryffindor. Thoughts? @VectorLogic @Wizarmonfan @onewiththewheels @darkened-storm @Zadien @TJMike @OfficerDonNZ Quote Link to comment
OfficerDonNZ Posted March 11, 2020 Report Share Posted March 11, 2020 Wait and see if/when it's announced. Looks promising though assuming it hasn't been gutted during development. Quote Link to comment
Zadien Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 This would be an amazing game - I know rumours are rampant now that they were going to talk about the HP game at E3 before E3 got cancelled which sucks. I'd really like to see more before getting my hopes up though. So fingers crossed for it because this is right up my alley. AquilaTempestas 1 Quote Link to comment
Administrator AquilaTempestas Posted September 16, 2020 Author Administrator Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 Hogwarts Legacy is an immersive, open-world action RPG set in the world first introduced in the Harry Potter books. Now you can take control of the action and be at the center of your own adventure in the wizarding world. Embark on a journey through familiar and new locations as you explore and discover fantastic beasts, customize your character and craft potions, master spell casting, upgrade talents, and become the wizard you want to be. Experience Hogwarts in the 1800s. Your character is a student who holds the key to an ancient secret that threatens to tear the wizarding world apart. You have received a late acceptance to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and soon discover that you are no ordinary student: you possess an unusual ability to perceive and master Ancient Magic. Only you can decide if you will protect this secret for the good of all, or yield to the temptation of more sinister magic. Discover the feeling of living at Hogwarts as you make allies, battle Dark wizards, and ultimately decide the fate of the wizarding world. Your legacy is what you make of it. It's finally here everyone! The Harry Potter RPG we've all been waiting for! All those rumours over the years have been proven true. I can finally live out my dreams as a witch fighting for the glory of Slytherin woo hoo! The website lists PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and PC. I legit have tears of joy in my eyes.

Zadien Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 I'm so excited for this. Feel like I've been waiting for it for ages - however! i hope we have better characterisations than the mobile games because everyone's so one dimensional and it doesn't make for compelling game play. Like yes, running around hogwarts is great for a while but I want to feel like I'm making an impact and that there will be people I want to help. Fingers crossed it's good because there's only so many times I can play Lego Harry Potter AquilaTempestas 1 Quote Link to comment

Fingers crossed it's good because there's only so many times I can play Lego Harry Potter I'm so hyped for this. I heard about this game about three years ago when some details were leaked, but never thought it would actually happen. It sounded way too good to be true. I kinda always wondered why hadn't there been an RPG open world HP game yet? The world is so rich and there's a great deal of customization available. I hope we can play Quidditch and we get put in a position we scored best in or something. I also hope we go through each year instead of having everything available to us all at once. Although I kinda hope for a bit of a multiplayer experience in the form of an online scoreboard of which house has earned the most point globally. They did this thing in Dark Souls 2 for a global death counter, tracking how many times players all over had died. Quote Link to comment
Zadien Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 Yeah, give us the old Quidditch game again, like where you actually play quidditch like it's a FIFA game. I'd so do that. And yeah I remember that leak, it got so that no one was talking about it anymore and it seemed almost like it was a fake. And then the mobile games came and so people thought that was it. Mobile game does let you traverse through the years, so I can't imagine this game forces you into one because part of the appeal of Hogwarts is going through the years and learning the spells. I'm so hyped for this! Honestly, I'm going to be so let down if it's not everything I want it to be LOL. I dunno, global stuff like that I would hope could be turned off because that's a level of anxiety I do not need. I don't want to know. Like I'm in Hufflepuff. I'm never gonna win the house cup if it's a global thing. So no thank you. We don't have enough people. AquilaTempestas 1 Quote Link to comment
Administrator AquilaTempestas Posted January 19, 2021 Author Administrator Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 Looks like the game is getting delayed until 2022 I guess they don't want to pull a Cyberpunk 2077. https://www.techradar.com/au/news/hogwarts-legacy-game-release-delayed-to-2022-heres-what-we-know Quote Link to comment
Zadien Posted January 19, 2021 Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 Yeah saw that when it broke. Honestly I’m okay with that. I’d prefer the game have longer to be what it should be. Also with the whole JK thing they might want to distance themselves from that a little. Quote Link to comment
Administrator AquilaTempestas Posted March 19, 2022 Author Administrator Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 So it should be coming this year. @Zadien @Hikari @Stubborn Loki @darkened-storm @Ace of Spies @Lightningblade49 I've got a few characters in mind I wanna try out. My main would be a Slytherin character who is a bit of an asshole. He wants to be a dark wizard. My second character (should I go through it again) would probably be based more on myself. So female. This really feels like Bully (hilariously fun game) but in Hogwarts. I'm so keen. This game looks like the Harry Potter game I've always dreamed about. Quote Link to comment
Zadien Posted March 19, 2022 Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 I think there's still some things they really need to fix. Character design isn't great but not the worst thing ever. It doesn't feel like a triple A game, but like a bigger version of a mobile game. The combat is not great in that showcase, so I hope that improves before they release it properly. As for who I'll play, gotta see what the game requires and what house that character gets put into. I hope they give the character some depth and not create a complete shell. Huffleputt would be fun though because I want to actually experience the Hufflepuff common room since it's so rarely seen. Quote Link to comment
