Hogwarts Legacy – a good game or fan service?
Hi all! It is again that I hasten to share with you my no interesting and far from expert opinion about a new game in the universe of everyone’s beloved (except me) Harry Potter for a long time. Clear immediately, I’m not a fan of fun Joan Rowling, but not Hater, this is quite a good story, just not about me. I love high -quality video games! Is it Hogwarts Legacy? Let’s try to figure it out.
Gameplay adventures of a young wizard are pure RPG, open world, main tasks, side quests, activity, legendary camps of bandits, “hunting” on magical creatures, which is more like gathering, chest chests, pumping, skin, and all in that spirit. I will dwell in more detail only on a couple of elements:
Help the room is your peculiar hub, there you can grow plants, craft potions, improve equipment, change the visual of the room. It seems to be nothing, yes, there is a time craft with the necessary slurry to get one elixir you need to wait 30 seconds of real time, for which it is difficult to understand, if you want to grow the right plant for 15 minutes! If I were a fan of MMO, I would probably play them, which is due to such a move in single onli by the plot game, taking into account normal duration, a riddle for me. In addition to irritation, nothing causes.
Side effects – for https://xfombet.co.uk the most part, give it, find 5 diaries, 18 medallions, catch 5 animals and other stuffy gravity of the same type of tractomotin. BUT! There is a real diamond in this kingdom of tedious madness, an additional task of buying a store in Hogsmid, just excellent, bravo! A cut above many plot missions. Joint adventures with Sebastian Sallow and Poppi Khoving were also good. There are crazy missies where you need to look for things under water, one of the most stupid spectacles that I have seen in recent years, why do such tasks if the hero does not know how to dive due to the complete absence of the underwater world.
Combat system, here I will praise more. Plays perfectly, looks the same, sounds, effects, everything is on top. You join every battle with pleasure, especially with a full set of spells. The balance is saved, but Avada Kedaur makes you the first guy in the village, only a long attack rollback treats the situation. True, the game does not shine with a variety of enemies, constantly humiliate poor spiders, bothers in order by 5 hours of game.
We move around the world on which the high is high: broom, hippogrif, other evil spirits. There is no difference, only the picture changes.
So well, my favorite. Plot and characters. Hogwarts is probably the first game for many years that has not caused me absolutely no emotions. The story in the game is very typical, but it is not scary, if it was bright, charismatic, deep heroes in it. Avalanche characters turned out to be very boring and fresh, completely empty, they lack a normal exposition. The main character is just a blank. And about the same cardboard probes surround him, some minimal interest can be caused only by Sebastian Sallow, but as they say for Bezrybie and Cancer. The main villain is simply no, the central faces like a professor fig, the keepers, on the study at the level of ordinary NPSs, their stories can be retold in a nutshell. The final is bright, but unemotional. I do not understand why the developers decided that in order for the player to love the character he needs to know only his name. No guys. We need personalities, with interesting fates. Leave such a movie for children 10+. There is also nothing to praise the missions in the plot company, in my opinion the best are the prologue, the first exit to Hogsmid and the last two tests of the keepers. We solve riddles, beat enemies, communicate with friends. We carry out stupid tasks from teachers in the spirit, use “combat cabbage” on the enemy, which was also terribly annoyed.
The open world in the game is beautiful, the picture is pleasant, Hogwarts looks great. Graphics, albeit not superly technological, but the eye does not twitch.
Bottom line: so what’s in the dry remnant? Game or Fanservice? The answer is obvious, of course – game. But despite this, she probably does not give any emotions, in connection with which she absolutely does not want to scold her and praise all the more so. She is just n o rm a l n a . The fans of the universe probably roll, but ordinary players will have to decide on their own. There is absolutely nothing criminal if you decide to fly past Hogwarts this time.
