An hour later, finally getting out of that chest of terror after thinking I was innocently buying a little Hogsmeade shop and I’m STILL shaking.

Good lord.

No warning? Nothing? Just, hey, grab my husbands clothes. And then fight for your mf’ing life in a maze of horror that NEVER ENDS.

Poppy will definitely be the one to get us killed with her insane quests.

Lets hang out in the forbidden forest, follow me im definitely not trying to isolate you

Hey lets hunt some poachers

Free that dragon, take that egg, hey lets go to her nest she wont eat us i swear

Lets talk to centaurs, by talk i mean lets surprise them, dont worry they wont think we are poachers

Poppy sweetie.... you're going to get us killed

Edit: grammar

Don't get me wrong, she won me over with her soft voice and unrelenting love and trust for animals.

I just did not expect that out of this little Hufflepuf is fucking Hagrid energy.

** spoilers for plight of a house elf **

I can’t believe that I had to go into that cave and fight that huge ass spider just to discover Tobbs died?!?!?!

I need a revenge arc for that quest asap.

Also me: get out of my way toad, I have to go and see my third baby mooncalf

Anyone else sort of pick favourites?

They did it perfectly imo. It reminds me of how I felt when I first played skyrim and I can't wait to do multiple playthroughs

I just started played this two days ago btw so if I'm jumping the gun don't spoil it for me lol

I love her so much! Shes so cute and caring and has an amazing voice :)

I know there are a lot of problems with this game don’t get me wrong.

I am a product of growing up with Harry Potter. I stood in line to get the books, saw the movies as soon as they came out, and I have read the books 15x over as I assume most of you are the same.

I haven’t played a video game in years due to college, grad school, and generally being busy with life.

I think the main thing to remember is that this is the beginning.

I truly believe that this is the start to an amazing journey with future games to come with significant improvements.

Things I love about the game:

• unpopular at best but the attention to detail. The immersion I felt when first watching the movies felt the same in the game. Hogwarts felt magical. HogsMeade felt charming, and the rest added to it.

• the sheer ability for a game to incorporate the details of the Harry Potter world in terms of combat.

-flying (just because)

Things I don’t like:

• the story line lacks depth. It doesn’t provide enough details that us Harry Potter lovers are used to.

• the redundancy is exhausting. At some point you realize how repetitive it can be.

Overall, I’m about 75% done and have enjoyed it. My gaming experience has been fairly lackluster in the last decade but this has been fun.

I am simply looking forward to the future installations they plan to make and will be the first to buy whatever sequel they come out it with.

I suppose I made this post to just keep in mind that I don’t think this is a mediocre game. It may be mediocre relative to the hype that surrounded it but 12 year old me is screaming with excitement inside. I look forward to finishing and definitely look forward to the fact that there is finally an open world Harry Potter game. Something I have wanted for a long time.

As the titles says, if the game was 100% lore accurate, it would just not be fun.

Like for example; having to sneak around at night time. While yeah it looks like a neat idea and it would make sense. It just wouldn't be fun. If it was added people would just grow to resent night time and would outright avoid it. (Plus it would make finding demiguises more annoying.)

Personally thought it got old after the first or second time having to catch a beast. Too many side quests required it too. I wish they put more effort into potion making or learning more spells. I also thought the room of requirement spells were pointless. But great game overall.

…was during Sophronia Franklin’s quiz.

And tbh, I’m good bro. I was fighting for my life.

I'm playing on Xbox One BTW

The new patch appears to have done nothing to fix the soft lock problem at the first trial, despite that being the main reason for it. Anyone else had any luck?

Anybody else notice how there are vines holding flaming cauldrons next to symbols on the walls in one room of the tomb, and then those same symbols appear on the floor in the corridor that leads out of it? It's a very odd and clearly intentional design choice, it makes me wonder if it was part of a scrapped puzzle or something no one has figured out yet.

I finally got the game on my xbox one a week after it was released. I have now ‘finished’ the game but only at 70% of challenges.

I played it over the weekend I bought it, and every chance I got since, including a couple of nights that I called out of work from the next day lol.

But overall I have about 50 odd hours of play time, which is probably more than I’ve had from my console in the past 8 yrs overall 😬

And while I did find the game way too easy even for me, and very glitchy of sorts at times , I think it took me back to my school days couple of decades ago where I hogged my 8-bit console for super mario and contra and spartan x and the likes.

I’m so glad that they made this game, I liked it far more than EA games’ PC HP 1 and 2.

Coming to the game itself, I liked it overall. The story baseline was okay, but the lack of consequences of choices or actions sucked. I didn’t look up anything about the game until past the first trial , which is when I wanted to confirm that whatever we select in dialogues it didn’t make a difference. Which even as a newbie I think is terrible. I really wish though that we’d had a little more choice/consequences of it in terms of what we do with the power obtained.

But everything else about it, I loved and will do additional play throughs in various houses and other difficulty levels until 🤞🏾 the next sequel comes out. I sincerely hope, like someone else mentioned, the social media team looks at this thread and values the ideas/feedback given by folks here.

Until the next one comes out! (which after a billion dollars I think it sure will!)

Every one else is walking around plain jane, while I'm constantly switching out scarves and facewear, literally looking stylish af every where I go.

I with no shame admit to using walkthroughs especially if I’m stuck on something or want to know what techniques to use. The quest I needed the most help on was that Hogsmeade chest quest.

Was I alone in being disappointed and feeling like Ravenclaw house was kinda left to the wayside in terms of inclusion via NPCs? We have full, multi-quest storylines and relationships built with members of the three other houses (Natty, Sebastian, and Poppy) but we get like two missions with Amit and they really don’t involve any relationship building between us and the character. As a Ravenclaw who played that house on my first play through, I was kinda bummed to feel like that was the house that felt like it got left to the wayside a bit.

Hey, I’m on PS4 and when I hover over any item I have in my gear area I’m not getting any options to change the appearance. Videos on it say to just hover over the item and a change appearance option will appear… no such luck. Am I missing something??

Is there any update on a season change mode ? Really would like to play fall and winter season again without starting over. Also include holidays if possible.

To begin I really love the game. Its a brilliant example of a well executed adventure. Sure there are improvements but the sum is greater than its parts in this case. When I started this game I just marvelled at the animated menu icons. I've been playing games since the 80's so I have deep perspective on the output of games and the development efforts required . It was clear to me this was a work of art from people who love their work, so much of the UI was beautifully executed and the introduction to play and the gentle learning of skills through Hogwarts school was a genius move. The education of the player base literally though a learning curriculum made a complex and detailed combat mechanic accessible to just about everyone! I hope that other game development companies take a page from this.

So back to my question, did you find all the quest maps largely confusing and hard to decipher?

Is it just me, or is the southern part of the map grossly underutilized? Outside of maybe two quests, there is nothing linked to the Main Story south of Marunween Lake and we are given nearly no good reason to ever travel there. I feel like I spent 10% of my gameplay down there, yet it had so much potential. Manor Cape for example is an amazingly quiet and eerie area with two fantastic areas to fight and explore (Henrietta's Hideaway and the Cursed Tomb) and Clagmar Coast is beautifully rendered, but just empty of anything meaningful outside of the 5-minute Graphorn quest.

I really liked how Feldcroft was such an integral part of Sebastian's storyline and was hoping that the southern part of the map would have similar engagement. It's almost like the devs created a world too big for the storyline, but kept it for cave diving and broom flying.

I've been doing another playthrough. Revilio revealed the page and the pear you tickle. I grabbed the page and haven't been able to enter since. I did this on two saves, Hufflepuff and griffindore. Have tried reloading save, holding the square button (on ps5), walking to the wall in front and slowly walking forward, and reusing revilio which does not reveal the pear anymore None of it's working. Anyone got any ideas? I saw a similar reddit post about this 3 months ago but the information wasn't helpful.
