JK Rowlings rampant bigotry aside.

This is actually a really good game. Its not a genre definer or anything but its a solid game.

The world is beautiful, the combat is fun, quests are ok, story is pretty safe and predictable, difficulty is friendly for casuals, and leveling is not a grind.

I kinda wish Rowling wasnt a piece of shit because this is a really solid game and I think fans of the series would really enjoy it.

My gf has been making me play it cause she doesnt play video games and is a huge HP fan. Ive been enjoying it though.

If you ignore JK Rowling it's a game with really weird bugs that devolves into the usual bland open world with repetitive combat.

I didnt plan to buy it. I dont even really care for harry potter as a franchise. I've only read the first book and seen one fantastic beast movie.

My girlfriend loves Harry Potter and kept seeing the game on tik tok and bought it cause she thought it would be a Hogwarts simulator lol.

I got it because my wife wanted it, but since she's bad at video games I'm basically the one who's playing it while she just watches and back seat games.

Thats pretty much the same. She bought it, started it, and when she got to the first set of knights in the intro she handed me the controller and ive been playing ever since lol

I bought it, thinking that boycotting it because of Rowling was silly.

However, got about halfway through and stopped. Doubt Ill ever go back to it. Its just not very good.

So you bought it out of spite? Hopefully you learned your lesson, because that's the worst way to spend your money imo.

Anytime my wife plays it she changes the difficulty to story. Anytime I play it, I switch it back to hard lol.

No, of course I didnt buy it out of spite. I just didnt feel the need to boycott.

I bought it because I thought it would be good, but I was wrong.

A character's hand going through their shoulder and their arm rotating is not normal even in the ocean of shitty western devs.

What system are you running this on? The only "bugs" I've seen are sometimes sidequests not activating or stuff like people's robes clipping in them or people floating on something they're not suppose to, but I never experienced anything like what you just said.

It's a solid 7/10 on it's own merits. I dont play many games like this so I'm chugging through it slowly though. It's gonna take me a very long time to get through it.

It does do a really good job of capturing my childlike wonder that I have for HP at several points though. It kind of cruises on that and that I RP my character to make my own fun.
