They just unlocked for me when I started the game. When WB's services came back up I got the rest from them.
Yeah. I was wondering where the stuff was in game. I will look around. They said it on the unlock screens. I should have wrote it down.

I'm a huge Potter fan, didn't have high hopes for this game (more because I was afraid of being disappointed), but man I did not regret dropping extra cash for the deluxe edition. The game is really amazing. There is a very evident attention to detail to this game. The castle itself, so far from what 4hrs of exploring could afford me, has been such joy to do. There's secrets and puzzles everywhere, and the castle is full of life with different interactions from NPCs (yes there are repeated ones, but it still adds to the identity of Hogwarts). The combat is slowly growing on me, they introduce new spells and abilities at a good pace so far.

The story is intriguing the more it opens up, the combat is slowly growing on me and I like how it isn't as easy as I thought it was going to be. The controversy surrounding this game is incredibly stupid, and if people are boycotting this game, they're just depriving themselves of a potentially great experience.

This is a new one. Boycott something you worked on.

It’s so damn hilarious how the new generation is so good at self-own in a professional setting.

It’s like there is absolutely no filter between what they think and what they say. Everything just flows through.

For the cosmetics just choose some gear and hit square on it (if PS5) and then it will show all of the cosmetics. You need to brew the potion AFAIK,

Not going to say the game is as good as Elden Ring, because it's not, but it's the most fun I've had with a game since then. I'm actually enjoying the open world more than the castle.

They realized they can't stop people from being sane, so they are going to try to ruin their enjoyment of hte product. Limp dick losers, the lot of them.
That's the point. They don't actually want the general population to agree with them. They want to stay hated and play the victim because without their victimhood they're literally nothing, it's all they have.
Really enjoying the game, but the enemy target locking 🎯 is borked (click R3, ps5) . Especially in the first few duels… totally bugged out. Won’t turn on and off reliably, won’t switch targets reliably. It occasionally even locks onto the pendulum in the room instead of the other duelers. Hope they fix it in a patch soon
Turn off camera relative targeting in the options. It's still not perfect but it's a hell of a lot better than the default. Hopefully, they fix targeting in the patch on Friday because you're right, it's absolutely broken at times.

Sometimes I feel bad about rolling into one of
Ranrok's camps
and busting that ass, even if they are murderers and poachers. It just must sting getting your shit pushed in by a 16 year old in a bright yellow Hufflepuff robe, stupid green hat, glasses that look like they came from a novelty store, while he talks smack in a posh London accent.

“The team felt that it was very important to create a game that is representative of the rich and diverse world of Harry Potter as well as the groups of people who play games, which includes the LGBTQIA+ community. We have a diverse cast of characters that players will encounter throughout the game.”
Many have already criticised the character’s name though, pointing out that including both ‘Sir’ and ‘Ryan’ - both of which hold masculine connotations - in the name of a transgender woman is tone deaf. Some compared the name to Cho Chang and Kingsley Shacklebolt’s which are also considered to be thoughtless by many fans.


You can't make this shit up.

First they were mad at jk Rowling for being a homophobic in theirs own heads.

Then they find out there's a trans person in the game, and complains about the name is being too muscular.

This cult must be a joke, because I refuse to believe that someone this mentally ill is a danger to society and not being locked up and forced to get psychological help. .

It's really not smart. Nothing goes away on the internet. If the public is eating hogwarts legacy up and calling boycotts an over reaction, you can bet developers are checking their notes.

As big as the industry is its actually pretty small. You might get labeled as difficult to work with or just a constant shit racker.

And those are the people who many gaffers love to follow?

Lmao.
Ryan Davis was a great and funny man. Jeff Gerstmann used to be cool, but now he's a pathetic annoying sack of shit. Mans thinks Sonic Frontiers is better than Hi-Fi Rush lmao.

The new crew and everyone there after Ryan died turned horrible. They didnt cover Kingdom Come Deliverabce because of the Reee controversy about no black people in 1600 Bohemia (poland). Fucking clowns.

For people who love harry potter? Why does that sound strange?

If it was a shit game i could understand the confusion, but this is not the case.

The feeling of a living, breathing world, graphic and performance are already better than ER ever was, if you add an EXTREMELY beloved coat of paint and so much love in the project, and it's not that hard to imagine.

Not everyone prefer berserk fantasy over harry potter magic overworld.

Seems like it. I mean look at the user score on Metacritic.

There is no disconnect between users and reviewers. Which reviews are you seeing that suggest the 8 or 9 the game was given should have been a 10? This isn't a 10 game.

. . .if anything, because it is a good game based on an existing media IP, it's getting more shine than it otherwise might have.
