It is probably the most hyped game since Cyberpunk 2077. While I highly doubt the game is going to be a disaster like the console launch version of CP2077, the people making Hogwarts Legacy have only made shovelware in the past and people have hyped the game to the moon. Then you have to factor in J.K. Rowling.

Going to be an interesting game launch to say the least.

Honestly if it wasn't for people screaming about how you are anti-trans for buying the game, I likely would haven't noticed it being released.

It is pretty high up there. Ever since its reveal ages ago I've never stopped seeing people gush about how amazing it's going to be, and I'm not even in any community that has a tangential relationship to Harry Potter. Heck, the only game that I can come up with that I heard about more prior to its release in a more recent sense than Cyberpunk was Elden Ring.

If you know about JK Howling, but still buy the game you're a bad person. If you just want to enjoy a Harry Potter game or think it looks fun then okay.

Realism Cyric tells me it'll be mid.

Because that's what I expect coming out of WB Games.

And yes, that's me having played every LEGO game, as released by WB Games.

I expect it to be a mostly regular open world fluff type of game. If there's any controversy over the quality it'll probably be between HP fans gushing over it and non-HP fans trying it and going "huh I don't get it this is just open world game #48".

Take this with a grain of salt, but this study has Hogwarts Legacy as the most hyped game of 2023 by a large margin:

  1. Hogwarts Legacy - 1.23 million searches
  2. Starfield - 540,000 searches

I feel like this game may be the next Crysis. It already has fairly steep system requirements to run. I am starting to get a bit nervous about my RTX 3070 Ti not being able to handle it. I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up as a benchmark.

That said, it is weird to see all the haters rag on things that have nothing to do with the game itself. Maybe they are just sour that their PCs are incapable of running the game.

I agree. On top of the dev team not making a game of this magnitude before, the steep system requirements also gives me a lot to worry about that this game is probably not made with optimization in mind. Gotham Knights also had a steep system requirement and apparently that game not only ran pretty badly, but also ended up looking worst than the Batman Arkham games that were made 10 years before.

The steep system requirements are probably a result of really shitty optimization. It likely wont push any boundaries that actually warrant the system requirements. Elden Ring I could understand since the worlds were very detailed, the draw distance was enormous, and there's a lot of flashy particle effects in the combat. This one mostly just seems to be the result of devs that have only worked on shovelware attmpeting something bigger.

The hype comes entirely from the controversy surrounding the game

Maybe it's because I'm not a Hairy Potter fan, but I think it'll be a 7, maybe an 8 out of ten highest. The mods will probably be the best part.

I think it'll be a fairly above-average game where your tolerance for its downfalls will largely be dependent on how much you care about Harry Potter as a franchise. And that's not meant to be a knock on it, because I'm excited for it. But the game doesn't really need to be anything groundbreaking, just a competently made Harry Potter game. I'd rather it be a standard open-world RPG with a Harry Potter skin on it than it being overly ambitious and biting off more than it can chew.

If it does end up being on the same tier as something like Arkham Asylum or Spider-Man PS4 though, I'm all for it.

The development studio has a pretty mediocre track record. I'm expecting it to be akin to a Ubisoft game at best, which isn't terrible, but not spectacular either.

Even if it's mediocre is there ever going to be a game where you literally can have a Professor Blackity Black Black?

That's the kind of character that you cannot find just anywhere.

I'm not expecting anything mindblowing and I'm pretty sure that's the same mindset for most people interested in the game. It's not like the lead game designer has been pulling Peter Molyneux or Tom Howard interviews acting like this is going to be the next step in gaming evolution

I'm just expecting an entertaining game in the HP universe that doesn't look like shit from 4 generations ago

It looks extremely bad imo. Most of my friends who want it think it's an online MMO type game where you can run around with your friends at Hogwarts too. Feel like they're all gonna be very disappointed lol

As a mid HP fan, it's definitely the next game on my to buy list. Before that was Gotham nights but reviews steered me away. The homie I was gonna play it with didn't like it either so that was an easy pass. It's hard for me to believe that each house will be so different and that each moving picture has its own personality, and yada yada. As someone else here said though, if it can match the detail of Arkham Knight or Spider man, I'ma be giddy as fuck. I'm interested in how varied combat is gonna be.

It will definitely not be like Cyberpunk since the gameplay showcases were live where as 2077 had only one gameplay showcase that was fake: Made for the E3 show, if the rest of the game is as was shown in those showcases, the game will be more than fine.
