Unfortunately, you can only choose from templates for how your actual face is constructed, however there is a large range of templates to choose from, so I doubt players cannot find at least a slight resemblance to themselves. It does have a few flaws that I will highlight, such as the occasional bug here and there and the lack of a quidditch mode or multiplayer, which will definitely be a disappointment for many.Īn underrated aspect of Hogwarts Legacy is the character customization and creation, which in my opinion is pretty solid.

Hogwarts Legacy shined in many different aspects of the gameplay itself, with the combat being my personal favourite aspect. I got sorted into my favourite house, Ravenclaw, with each house having their own themed common rooms and dormitories, designed exactly as described in the Harry Potter books. It’s safe to say my first impressions were excellent. You get the Harry Potter nostalgia from the sorting hat to the cosy town of Hogsmeade, to even flyable hippogriffs, whilst Hogwarts Legacy also being able to be a solid RPG game that requires strategy when facing bosses, quick reaction times and pure skill, similar to what’s needed for an Elden Ring type of RPG game. With extremely satisfying combat mechanics, intriguing character storylines, an insane amount of detail and accuracy to the books, all topped off by beautiful graphics and landscapes, this game has the ability to please Harry Potter fans and hardcore RPG fans alike. Hogwarts Legacy has got that perfect RPG feel that gets you glued to the screen for hours. There is the slight thorn in its side regarding J.K Rowling’s ‘interesting’ views on certain topics, however, unlike some other reviews by other websites, I am judging the game as it is – a wizarding RPG that provides endless hours of fun. However, I am happy to say that I was very much wrong. Despite all the hype surrounding Hogwarts Legacy, I had an inclination that this game could be a flop, or more of a PG game for kids.
