    Hogwarts Legacy

    Doesn't seem to do shit for the pensieve mobs either. I dunno. Like I said, maybe I'm not holding it down or something and it's not blocking. Gotten used to dodging everything. Oh, and I take back my comment about fuck brooms. The flying mounts look cool, but don't seem super practical with...

    Honestly, I almost never use Protego. Pretty much dodge only. For some reason I'm either timing Protego wrong, or wizards can hit you through it easily, because it seems to do fuck all. So I dodge everything. Troll fucked me up cause he'll do a chain of attacks.

    There's more to it as you go. As far as the above, I don't think there's a carry cap for material either, so pick up all that shit. Second Trial was brutal. Burned through about a dozen heal pots. The first part with the door was pretty cool and I was worried the whole fight would be like...

    You wouldn't know until a good way into the main story. That screenshot I posted was about 14 hours in (although I'm distracted like a motherfucker doing side shit). I'm over 17 hours now and just got introduced to an entirely new set of features. It's one I'd been wondering about for a while...

    Same. I'm overloaded with money now. Up to 17k.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    I'm going to guess and say that it's specific to the area. And I only say that because every single item I get anymore is trash. The only time I get an upgrade is the unidentified stuff, which is what seems like is randomized and level scaled.

    So the recommended levels on quests are definitely purposeful. Tried a level 30 one at 25, and holy shit, burned through a dozen potions. Fight was hard as fuck.

    Wow, didn't even realize that's how you open those. I've got a lot of backtracking to do. I did finally get the level 1 lockpick though. Also finished up the House Tokens finally.

    First trial was fun. Floor effect is super cool. Always know you're in for a good time when the game gives you seven healing potions.

    Gandalf? Fig says, "With robes like that, it could be anyone."

    Found out that money isn't worthless (well, kinda). There's a broom for sale...5k. Jesus.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Ironic, because I don't know if this would've been on my radar without the trannies. I had thought about buying it, but then saw people playing before the early access and it looked fun as shit. Not disappointed so far. Definitely GOTY contender. Funnest game I've played in a while.

    The quality of the parks is already in the shitter. Just go to any Disney fan site and they've been talking about it for a few years now.

    World seems a lot smaller with the broom. But the game definitely opens way up after a certain point.

    Smell you later, losers! Highly suggest taking the tour with the nerdy kid. Not sure if you have a choice not to, but it's one of those fun moments with the right music and atmosphere.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    I'm like 10 hours in and a whole new game just opened up. Holy shit. Edit: I guess see post above. Was level 19 when I got to that point, with 15 points. The wizard killing outfit is pretty baller. Spider one is seems odd.

    Same hat I've been using. Switched from the weird green top hat to that one.

    My internet went out earlier today mid game and it worked. Not sure if it'd have to have a connection to start though.

    Jesus, okay...so after potions class you run into some 60 or 70 year old woman who mentions her wife. I was wrong.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Okay, that's fair. It's not mentioned anywhere in game (yet), but at least offer up some kind of explanation even if it makes no sense. Still bothered that she said she's from Uganda when apparently this is 1890 and it'd be Buganda, not Uganda, until 1894. And Gav, honestly, it's not a huge...

    More evidence this is just for diversity and makes no sense: https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Hogwarts_School_of_Witchcraft_and_Wizardry https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Uagadou They did an amazing job with including lore in this game. They got lazy on this one and it sticks out like...

    I actually don't care as much as it's not so prevalent after you've been introduced to the characters. It was just that first loop around the castle where I'm like, this is a diversity checklist. I will say it still makes no sense. A quick search says there are anywhere between 8 and 11 schools...

    Just gotta remember to go to Hogsmeade every once in a while to sell shit. Could also just destroy it, as money seems entirely unnecessary. I haven't found any reason to buy anything. If anyone comes across a guide for the Daedalian Keys or whatever, please post it (edit: Guess I could've just...

    Ah shit, good call. Thanks, guys. I was off wandering in Central Hogwart's Valley fighting spiders and shit (that Matriarch was tough!) trying to figure out what next.

    It actually gets explained a couple hours later on your walk to Hogsmeade, but by then most people would've probably forgotten or not put the two together.

    Over 6 hours in and still finding new sections of Hogwarts I haven't been to. That's not even including the secret ones, or the ones still locked off. Shit, or the hundred doors with actual locks I can't go in yet.

    And that's why I thought it was strange. The school isn't particularly diverse in the 90's or 2000's. But 100+ years before and suddenly it's 2023.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Restart the game once you get to Hogwarts. For some reason something is fucked in the transition and it makes the game stutter like crazy. I was getting all kinds of drops to like 20-30fps, adjusting settings and nothing really worked. Restarted and it's running so much better (outside of door...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    The reason I pointed out the races is that I was under the impression Hogwarts was basically the school for the UK. Doesn't make sense for it to be a diversity checklist. Maybe I'm wrong? Also, Hogsmeade is super cool too. Not as cool as Hogwarts, but I'm chalking that up to having been to the...

    I don't actually know shit about the houses, just that no one wants Hufflepuff. It was White nerdy kid, Asian girl, and Arabic boy. Then I want to say the little girl who everyone hates is Ravenclaw too. I think in charms class you meet a Gryffindor, some girl who's from Uganda and wants to...

    Well this is a fucking blast so far. About 3 hours in, and about to go to Hogsmeade finally. The castle is absolutely enormous. I'll be in a place I've been before, turn a corner, and suddenly find a whole new wing. The world is super lively and interesting, although a lot of that can be...
