It still amazes me how fast you can 100% game

[esahoosa]

Would’ve liked to see more relationship building between classmates and professors similar to a school simulator, as well as a better looting/rewarding system, since almost everything is pretty much sold right away. Besides that one of my personal favorite open world games, pure nostalgia.

[SComet]

“(They) let you kill people all over the countryside… they could have at least implemented something like detention” That’s a sentence I never thought I’d hear.

[DoctorJack]

This game was a real surprise to me. I am not a huge Harry Potter fan, but did enjoy the movies, but this game has blown me away. The magical world they created and attention to detail is amazing. I can’t stop playing it.

[Gabrocol]

Implementing a law system like RDR2, with the ministry catching you and making you serve time for using unforgivable curses would have been cool

[timofrohlich]

In My Opinion there are a few things i really missed:
1.) A morale system that you can't break into everywhere and steal without being detected.
2.) It would be better if you learned more in class and also learned how to brew a certain potion within a class. For example, that you first have to find the ingredients for the lesson and then actively brew the potion in the lesson (possibly with a minigame)
3.) That there are no randomly generated items in chests you can find. Especially with more special caves, it would be cooler if there were clothes that can really only be found there.
4.) Some minigames only make sense so that you don't get in all over the place. For example, why do I need a minigame for Aloha Mora?
5.) That it matters more which house you're in, and that there's actual competition to win the house cup at the end. E.g. questions at the end of the lesson which, if answered correctly, give you points for your house

[Throrface]

The one thing that completely baffles me about the game is how badass you feel in a fight when you play things right. I would never have guessed that a teenager with a feeble wooden stick could feel just as cool to play as Kratos or Dante. The combat animations for the player character are impeccable, as well as the accompanying visual and sound effects.

[tombystander]

A sequel revolving around a Triwizard tournament being held in your year 6, where you could transfer over your witch/wizard SHOULD be the next step. w/ quiditch

[nizizumi]

The sounds for wand combat are so good, the screeches and whispers of different spells during combat are both beautiful and haunting.

100% in less than a week?! You're a machine

[amdza]

God the nostalgia is real! Playing this game made me feel 15 years younger, reading the books under the covers and daydreaming what it would be like if I were whisked away to the wizarding world.

[derpherp]

This game has the 3rd highest peak players for a single player game of all time on steam, just behind Elden Ring. It's crazy how much it blew up.

[ouykcuf]

Great review, they really did an amazing job making the school so detailed and in depth, been loving it so far.

[sydhamelin]

I'm not even a HP fan and I got this game because the open world looked fascinating. I know I'm missing some references that would probably heighten the level of enjoyment, but it's still a really fun game. The world exploration is top notch. I find myself just getting lost all the time, either in the castle, or just around the world...I just keep exploring. Every once in a while I think "wait, I have to do quests".

Likewise I unlocked some stuff later than normal because I was just caught up in roaming around.

[whiteobama]

I love the difficulty level in this game. They managed to make hard mode without turning every enemy in to a sponge, and in my opinion its the best way to play this game.

[skyrimisforthenords]

I hope they make a blood and wine type dlc, new area and spells and roleplaying oppurtinities while youre already an established witch

[benp]

Great review! Fantastic work, sir. Won't be surprised when the Quidditch DLC drops!

[LiamLivesOn]

I am absolutely loving the game. I'm playing my first playthrough as my normal goodie two shoes hufflepuff self and not learning anything to do with the dark arts and being nice to everyone, but im so excited to do another playthrough on hard mode doing dark arts and learning the unforgivable curses

[Ultrlf]

This is the only review of the game Ive actually read/listened to.
That is a good sign. I dont have to worry about spoilers since I know you care and also use timestamps.
You have a good, and thourogh format so I know that all the key points will be covered.

So. Thank you for your continous quality content!
