dubbs Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I'm still undecided as to whether to buy this or not. The fact I haven't rushed out to get it day one tells me something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Yeah, this is a bit good! Really shows the devs loved the subject material. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villarule123 Posted February 13, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted February 13, 2023 This game is bloody brilliant. I've barely left Hogwarts and there's so much to do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicho Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 I went from playing red dead to this and so the story telling/static cut scenes for every conversation is the biggest thing annoying me and ruining it so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshVilla Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Has anyone had any issues with this? My missus is playing it, and every now and then it crashes and completely shuts down the PS5, which won't turn back on again unless I turn the plug off and on again (obviously, not good for the PlayStation as it's happened about 10 times now). It's not a hardware issue as it doesn't happen with any other game/application. I've seen a fair few people posting the same issue on reddit.

Yerp I completely agree. The talking cut scenes are awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villarule123 Posted February 20, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted February 20, 2023 This is the first game in a long time where I've looked forward to getting home and turning it on. This is a special game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daft Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Done with the msin story. Brilliant, but open world a bit dead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an interesting view as I think the world outside of Hogwarts is one of it's strengths, as there are so many activities and collectibles to pick up. I'm going for the Plat so I'm holding off finishing the story (think I'm about 80% of the way through it) until I've sorted most of the other trophies. It's a superb game.

StefanAVFC Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Mrs wanted it and who am I to say no to a pregnant lady but on my laptop, it won't run. Crashes at character selection with lowest settings. Need a new laptop anyway but annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is one of the most enjoyable gaming experiences in years. It made me, someone who has never been interested in Harry Potter, but the full collection of the books and just binge. But as far as open worlds go, I maintain that it is extremely shallow and lacking depth, even if it is very polished and extremely atmospheric. There's no way to interact with it outside the quests. Same with your friends, and the collectable stuff is fun but also quite samey. These ar in no way game breaking or even major as I really loved the game, but the world could do with some fleshing out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive come around but the cut scenes still annoy me. Mycurrent biggest gripe is the emptyness/lack of ability to jump over stair cases and walls. Hogwarts is essentially just stairs. The open world is fun, as is the attacking gameplay, my favourite bit is the big set piece missions/puzzle caves. Mixing spells is great. I think there is a real opportunity for the next game in the series (when ever that may be) to be a real best game ever. Set somewhere like London in and around Diagon Alley with much better NPCs and interactive world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubbs Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Finally finished the main story today. Gotta say the last few missions were one hell of a slog. And the exclusive PS mission is just pure s###. I actually envied the Xbox players for not having to play that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
