considering the problem liberals had with the game was that buying it would make money go towards jk rowling doing terrible things, this seems like a case where people wasting their money on something actually would own the libs

It is just another soulless game crapped out by the soulless corporations that control the gaming industry. Pretty to look at and decent enough to play for a bit but just a complete lack of substance.

Its been over a month since it released. Maybe they finished it and moved on to other games?
Which is why it's compared to another single player game, like Elden Ring.

Why do people say this dumb shit about every single player game that's hyped and then launches? Yes. That's how it works. Good job.

Except not only are Souls games known to be replayed to hell and back by the fans (I played it 3 times before putting it down), they're also not single player.

I beat it, but afterwards there isnt really a whole lot of replay value. Maybe do the house specific stuff, but to slog through the whole game for that is stupid. I had fun playing it, but it was more of a distraction to take a break from Elden Ring.

elden ring has multiplayer and a live pvp scene. Hogwarts is a single player game thats not very hard.

It probably takes people more time to finish a boss than it does to finish hogwarts

There is a reason some games are down to like 10 bucks 6 months after release and games like Elden Ring are still 60 bucks.

One game is made with care as a passion product the other is just another soulless AAA game made to make money.

Yeah every game should be able to stand on its own but it's not like the TC chose a multiplayer game as the other title.

I feel like that says more about how incredible Elden Ring is than it does anything about Hogwarts Legacy. I don't pay attention to the Steam metrics at all so I could be wrong, but it seems like most single player games would have drops like that after one month.

Elden Ring isn't a singleplayer game to a lot of people. Sekiro should be the comparison here as there's no multiplayer/pvp to keep a community going.

There's a topic about HogLeg on the Gaming board that had to be saved from being purged and I think only one person in it said they finished it.

Losing 90% of your player base in less than a month is very noteworthy. Also very telling about the quality of the product for the price. Whether it is single player or not.

It's always funny how people try to say a game sucks because it's fans aren't as obsessed with it as it's haters.

What's truly sad is people are likely going to be making these same tweets a year from now, showing they still haven't moved on.

Most games are played once and then you move on. I don't mean that pejoratively. I have rarely ever replayed a game. And if you look at trophy lists on PlayStation, any game over the last 3 generations is lucky to have over a 40% completion rate. I don't think most people have ever completed games. I was one of the few people I knew as a kid who did.

This is definitely not true. Small minority at best of sales were from worthless pieces of shit thinking they were sticking it to trans people. Harry Potter is one of the most popular IPs in history.

This sounds like most single-player hyped games that end up only just being okay. It's played for a couple weeks, and then people finish it, decide there's nothing else to do and put it down. Maybe there's an extra week or two of play while people try to like 100% them or something.

Elden Ring still gets played because it's considered a legitimately phenomenal game.

This was always going to happen. This is what happened with like, Assassins Creed Valhalla, The REmakes, The Quarry, etc...

Its silly to pretend that Hogwarts Legacy behaving the way you would typically expect given gaming trends towards single player games is some kind of slight against it.
