wow this looks FAR better than any of the footage they have released prior to release. how rare that is these days.
Looks like the delays were worth it
I’d prefer it that way honestly. It’s how it used to be. Games used to surpass the expectations. They did the less is more with trailers and gameplay footage. Now they give away entire plot points in the trailer……
@@jakethesneakergeek267 No kidding. I almost forgot what it was like to have a game pleasantly surprise me.
It's just Far Cry dude. Like really, why are we in a Harry Potter game just running around the woods fighting random monsters and taking down bandit camps?

From a developer that was known for Disney games like Toy Story, Disney’s Cars, and Disney Infinity…. This is a MASSIVE LEAP forward!! Props to Avalanche Studios!!
They also worked on Mad Max, which is underrated IMO
Ooo I did like the cars game though , I was very little though
@Finesso never said it didn’t, I’m just stating that low sale games that most average gamers don’t play. Just Cause is known to be amazing
@@Sabarishnagappan That’s a different Avalanche
@finnessco wrong studio 📢
The opening scene/mission with the thestrals showed me the care involved in making the game while simultaneously making me feel like I was on a mission with dumbledore
I literally yelled "Oh my god he's dead because I can see them now" I was instantly hooked
@@henloitsdiego Such a great detail!
I was so scared this game would be too ambitious and a complete disaster, but seeing such a trustworthy source like this give an overwhelmingly positive review just made me so incredibly happy. Thank you ACG for your efforts in putting this review together! You provided a ton of relevant information without spoiling anything.
me too. Party at Hogwarts tonight at midnight🤣🤣🤣🤙🤙
Fax I instantly picked it up after this review jus got deluxe edition for my steam deck gonna watch the movies while playing see you guys at midnight
Hogwarts juices are flowing hard everywhere these days.

I'd like to apologise, skipped to your "buy", "Wait", "avoid" conclusion as I didn't want to spoil anything .... so glad you enjoyed this! 50+ hr game too was a surprise!
Man, I was late to the party but I'm playing *"Iron Lung"* it's a epic short horror game. Very intense
Been a Patron for years Karak.
Keep on bringing the agile commentary game brother. 🎮
Loving the "Pro" and "Con" annotations. It's the little things.
blurring the text to avoid spoilers is amazing. thank you. subbed
Definitely the biggest surprise was the combat and it being actually fairly challenging
I REALLY like that the difficulties aren't just health increases and are literally just better AI with more interesting encounters
Seeing how mobs that can WILL try to flank and use different approches. Like the armors, some will Leap, others will approach and then some will hang back and throw their weapons. Most games would just have them lumber towards you as you circle strafe them
This is all good design and programming. For example, check out how enemies aggro towards a player and have a set path in games like soulsborne or Bethesda RPGs. Like the comment above me said, enemies will just lumber aimlessly at you with barely any tactics. The moveset can vary, but that's usually all.
ok
As opposed to figuretively so?
It's actually not, it's REALLY easy, even on hard mode. It IS entertaining. That is why modders have made harder modes.
The game is incredible. They truly made the wizarding game that fans of the series dreamt of as they experienced it as a kid. I'm not the biggest hp fan, but this game is truly special
You could have this on the hardest difficulty and still breeze through this game while whacking off. They made it so their sped fanbase could play with no issue. 💀
@@homelander2243 just say you didn’t enjoy it and be on your way. easy =/= bad, i haven’t struggled with the combat at all and yeah it is pretty easy when you’ve played a lot of other games but this is still an amazing game with a great story, fleshed out open world and countless activities to dive into. combat isn’t everything.
@@genxr1141 nah. Not having any difficulty ruins games. Most of this fanbase might want to feel like 5 yr olds smashing toys together slobbering all over yourselves as you go “i win!” But regular people do not. Easy=bad
@@homelander2243 just say you haven't played it and you just heard that from another person.

@@ACGreviews How you come up with the metaphors and similes that you do is masterful use of imagination and the English language.
I just can't express how great it is that you cover sound. So many reviewers don't even consider tackling it. Not everyone has an ear for sound, but its such an important part of a game.

ok
I'm so happy to hear the actual gameplay mechanics are considered top notch by all reviewers.
Im so happy this game seems well made and get favorable reviews. Just for the sanity of devs.
Definitely one of the games of all time
@@Voldemorts.Nipple dead meme bro it’s 2023
The devs deserve this game to blow up after the insanity levelled against them from the Trans community.
@@Voldemorts.Nipple just stop this annoying shit.
@@ineedmoreflavour1955 crazy thing is that Rowlings comments aren’t even extreme. She just said biological women are well… women and that men competing against women in the same sport is unfair. That’s literally common sense but it’s the 21st century so even facts offend it seems.
These DEVS and creators deserve so much credit for actually delivering on what so many of us have wanted. Such a small name too!!
True. Makes me feel like a 9y.o. playing Chamber of Secrets for the first time again.
@@Baronnax FeelsGladMan
Agreed 100% and all the bullshit they been dealing with because the left absolutely hates jk Rowling because she said one thing. Men are men and women are women biologically. That's what she said and it's true biologically. With all the political b.s. they absolutely deserved to win and I hope they do
Huh, I thought it was made by avalanche studios, but apparently there's a difference.
Well it is usually the unknown devs that give us great games
I think a great idea for a sequel would be adding a sort of mass effect style party system where you can have two of your homies following you around, who have different strengths and weaknesses, and you choose who to bring along based on what you're expecting to run into, or just who you would like to have along because they're a fun/interesting character.
"Can we talk later? I have to do some calibrations on my broom."
This would allow so many options for character stories.
Wow.
Like a proper game. O_O
What the heck.
@@zjoee Garrus 😆
Could be dlc down the line
This is a great idea!
Thanks for this video review. You went into detail, without just giving the standard 5 minute video review. Thank you for all that you do. Very much appreciated.
Harry Potter isn't my thing but this game has looked solid since I saw screens for it. I'm not surprised it's a good game and getting 50 hrs out of it is impressive.
Same here. I'm not the biggest fan of HP (although I've seen all the movies) but this game just looks too good to not play.
Same. I will try as it has a little Witcher vibe to it, I think.
@@disarray8244 The movies are kinda mid, the first three were good but the other ones butchered a lot of things, you could read the books, you will enjoy it far far more
Actually you guys might want to try entertainment not specifically aimed at young children.
Same here
Feeling very relieved that this game seems to be getting great reviews. One of those games that I was hesitant about getting excited over until people actually got their hands on the finished product
What scared me was how little they showed of the story and that it somehow is getting a Switch port.
Cyberpunk also got great reviews before release..
@@bambinosto what do you mean somehow? plenty of big games are on the switch. Grow up
@@craigtrish2011 lmao
@@DonDadda45 reviewers couldn’t use their own footage it’s a completely different scenario
About 18 hours in, and im absolutely loving it. As someone who has always enjoyed Harry Potter, the little touches/easter eggs are really good.
you only have 7 hours to go lmao story is 25 hours long at best
So I should get it?
@@matguimond92 nothing wrong with that, better than dragging a game out and getting bored
@@markhowell9440 Elden Ring goes on for hundreds of hours didn't see anyone complaining about getting bored over that.
@@matguimond92 so every game needs to be 100s of hours long then? Some games work being that length, this one wouldn't.
I love how the classroom thing is not just tacked on. Sounds like an actual part of the world. So excited for this.
Yeah i was afraid you had to do the classroom and could not go walk around until you done the classroom quest But i explored while trying to get to my classroom
A bunch of things are locked behind the classes, you have to do them if you want to get other spells and progress the mission and classes are literally just fetch quests
I played it, the classroom thing is tacked on, and you only go to classes to unlock spells
@@blissfuldj7627shouldn’t that be what classes are? Ya know a school where you learn stuff you gotta attend a class to ya know learn stuff? Lol
@@francisoffilth7953 the problem is there's like 6 classes, in a game that spans a full year at Hogwarts
This review alone just made my year. The only review I need to know that I won't be disappointed in the game I've always wanted.
Sad CyberPunk 2077 in 2020 and Battlefield 2042 in 2021 noises.
I never waited for a game in my life, except this one. All the other games just released and they were amazing. This is the first time I want it to be amazing. The 2 year delay actually make sense now.
@@ExtremeMeinung BF 2042 is finally good now. It was bad for far too long but they finally fixed it up

So glad this game turned out great. The devs did an excellent job with this and it's fantastic to see JK Rowling's world envisioned like this. Thanks as always for the thorough review.
I have to say, I really like the number values for damage are digestible, so to speak. I get the Vegas-style glam for every one-hit skeleton in Vampire Survivors being worth 3 billion points, but just seeing the number "6" pop up for a direct wand hit in this video honestly hit just right; when another hit shows "30," it does feel that much more clear how significant it is.
I believe that if the lowest damage amount in your game isn't 1, you should divide all the numbers by a common denumerator until it is.
I agree! I always enjoy smaller numbers for that reason. After like 10k it just doesn't have the same impact.
Early Borderlands 3 was like this too, then I was seeing 1M per punch from Amara and it barely dented the enemy’s health bar which slowly killed all motivation to go on.
This is one of my favourite parts of the earlier RPG-based Paper Mario games too. Large numbers used just for flashy-ness negatively impact the user experience
This is how the Dragon Quest series has always approached damage values, and it's appreciated.
The FOV scares me, I'll play on PC but nowadays a narrow FoV happens way too often, especially in crappy ports, FoV setting is a must in all video games.
I've been very skeptical about this game but I'm glad the devs seemingly managed to pull it off.
I love that you include your time played in these reviews. That’s a big help - especially for an open world game. Hearing that it still felt fresh after that amount of time is a huge Pro on my list.
That's one of best features on Xbox Game Pass on PC. It shows you the average completion time, the average longplay completion time and the average 100% playtime.
ok
The visual style is justified and pleasant enough for an openworld scale.
I noticed what you said about the soundtrack as well before I saw this video. I appreciated that about the game as well. I would hear a familiar chord arrangement, but it's actually an original score. When you said that I felt understood lml.
Imagine if combat worked this way in Harry Potter movies, people getting juggled and thrown around (or smashed multiple times on the ground) and Harry knowing more than 3 spells throughout all his education
Sir. you should have way more subscribers!
it's been like 10yrs, since I've always waited for your reviews, if I'm not too sure about a game.
The level of commitment paired with your impartiality (meaning that even if the vast majority of the other channels will please a bad game, you won't betray your viewers), when it comes down to any of your game's analysis, it's what kept me coming back to this channel, like a moth to a flame. Respect!
53 hours, game complete. Its amazing. Buy it. Ignore the blue haired screeching.
Did you play on pc or?
Great review, just got a recommendation of your channel through a friend. Awesome quality, pacing and a very nice voice to listen to. I subbed and will look into the rest of your videos. If this is the standard of your reviews this will be the go to channel to watch them.
Man it looks amazing. The detail in this game is really impressive.
It look like 2012 graphics. Even Witcher 3 which was released almost 8 years ago had superior graphics and details than this one.

Are you half blind?
You and SkillUp are my most trusted opinions online and If at least one of you is really into a game, I'm pretty sure I'm going to enjoy it. If you're both really into it, even better! But just hearing your reaction alone lets me know that this is the game I hope it would be and looking forward to diving in.
OMG same! Its funny too cause sometimes there is a game where both of their reviews are complete opposites but that kinda shows that these reviews are honest because you know that different experiences and feelings towards the game will happen and it helps to see both sides
I've had my issues with SkillUp lately. Guy seems to be being influenced and delving more into the politics of things.
@@MasterJangleLeg he loves destiny. That’s all that’s needed to be said. He’s a jackass

I’m glad this game turned out to be better than I originally thought. The first couple of trailers for the game made me nervous. Technical issues as far as lag and pop-in. It looked completely unfinished when it was shown off. One of the rare cases where a game looks, feels, and plays better than originally shown off. Generally, the case is often the opposite. Very excited for this game.
Thanks ACG, I really appreciate having a reviewer that I trust. You’ve never done me wrong!
The power that ACG has over all of my video game purchases should be studied by psychologists.
Lmao Gotta become an independent thinker man before he recommends something you end up hating.
Richard Perloff dynamics of persuasion has the answers you seek my friend
Acg didn’t mention the penalty of $10 launch date for people that don’t pay more. This alone this beyond 💩 practice by publishers should never be supported and made a standard
@@DV-ou1yu issa joke lol
@Chris Anderson I have as a result become the joke 🤣🤣🤣
This might be one of the few games that I play in 4K mode rather than performance. I just really want to be immersed and catch the beauty of it.
So how would you say the resolution is in performance mode? You said it’s a bit noticeable; does that translate to 1400p (which is fine) or 1080p?
This is a wonderful review. You have really refined your review style lately to provide lots of information, getting your point across while being entertaining, precise and relatively concise (for a 20+ minute video). I can tell this video and script were well edited and I appreciate it! Thank you,

@@jarlwhiterun7478 yep thats what i meant, thanks!
One review I was definitely looking forward to, and just in the nick of time.
Never pre-ordered, but you set my mind at ease - Thanks, brother! 😊
My main concern was combat, glad to see that's not terrible or even bad here. A close second was content, I would've really felt let down by a 15-20 hour experience, so glad there's content in the game too
This game is such a breath of fresh air in an era of games that overpromise and underdeliver.

Can anybody confirm which, if any, HUD elements can be switched off? Cant remember the last time I even looked at a minimap in a game. I dont need the clutter bottom right either once I've learned the controls, and I really dont like highlighted enemies, and numbers flying off them every hit. First thing i do whenever playing a new Ubisoft game, is switch all these elements off for a more immersive experience. Hopefully these devs have given us similar HUD customisation.
The mini map definitely can be removed, It's how I play it. Idk about the spells though.
@@CityBoi954 Chedrs Zigzag. 👊
This is the best review of this game so far by a lot. Such great detail and explanations.
Your reviews are the best of the best. Love the details. Thank you ACG!
I would've really liked to hear about PC controls specifically, how the default mapping is, can you re-bind keys, and does it feel okay or is it basically built around a controller? Anyway thanks for the review.
You can rebind keys freely. PC controls are a bit clunky but okay once you get used to them. You'll need to play around a bit to figure out what works best for you though
First game I've been genuinely looking forward to playing since, well, the latest COD Modern warfare 2. Strange comparison I know, but not if you look at it from a graphics and combat perspective. This just has much more magic to it (pun intended). In terms of self-created story, this has incredible potential. Great review as always ACG. This is why I am subbed and seem to always like. Keep it up brother. Well Done, by them and you.
Karrak.... doesn't it just feel good to have a major video game release and just be what it says on the tin for once? And to come from a lesser-known, lesser pedigree developer and see them produce such an artful and well-executed labor of love and just give it to the world like, "We think this is pretty cool, we'd love for you to enjoy it." Feels good, man. Thanks always for the detailed and insightful/thoughtful review as always. (Sorry if I spelled your name wrong, was from memory lol.)
Especially so soon after garbage like Forspoken lol
Moving the audio samples to the end of the video has been such a nice change. Thanks for the years of quality reviews!
Really love your style of writing reviews. I got a good chuckle out of comments like "a Ron-Weasley type broom" and the MC's parents spending too long at a free love festival lol.
look whoever either wrote the script or adlibbed for this video, you did a fantastic job. ignoring the actual game you dialogue was simply wonderful, the words used and the analogies were fantastic, great job, from the bottom of my druken heart
Thank you for giving your thorough review. I can always count on you to actually help us know what to expect. (Wish I could phrase that better. I know that's what a review is, just saying that you seem to be one of the only reviewers who does every facet.)
50 hours into it? You rock man. Thanks for the overview, this game has gradually gone from something I had next to no interest in to one of my more anticipated titles of the year... looking forward to hopping in this week!
All of the animations look absolutely stunning. Can't wait to play this title!
Never was a Potter fan, but this just seems like a pinnacle of gaming, wizard sim, world building and exploration a cool huge castle. Cant wait to play it tomorrow!
Id recommend watching all the films and trying your darnedest to become a fan, promise you the game hits way harder if your invested in the world. Everyone is like oh wow while we’re all like OH WOW!
@@omgIoIwtf so you recommend watching the series before playing it yes?
@@denizserin9446 Tbh I don't think there is much you're missing out if you skip all that (like for the story of the game, the Harry Potter content is very enjoyable) because Hogwarts Legacy takes place over 100 years before the mainstream stuff.
Please research Jk, rolling as a person before supporting anything that gives her money.
@@Waspinmymind if it was something illegal the game wouldn’t be published, I am not interested what jk Rowling did. You support numerous harmful people or organizations by buying things. By doing what you say I won’t be able to buy anything
Its really nice seeing the damage numbers so simple and not 23,456,000
Only Disgaea and mobile rpgs do that kind of damage though.
@@RaifSeverence Latest assassins creed games had big numbers.
I couldnt have been happier when i saw a notification from my most trusted reviewer! Thanks for all the great work that you do. Super excited for this one!
Re-viewed this review after beating the game, and it's absolutely spot on. There's so much to this game, and it hits both the references to the Harry Potter films & books, but also is just a really solid game. As ACG points out, the combat is interesting and at times difficult. The exploration isn't in-your-face with fetch quests sending you all over the map, it's subtle by making you want to find something you haven't found yet. It's worth noting that parts of my map are still dark after having beat the game!
14:00 Luckily, that tight FOV is not at all a problem if you play in UWQHD.
I'm at a point where I just need your opinions on a game before I decide to buy or not, no other reviews tell it like you do! Thanks for helping me get excited enough to pre-order Legacy.
Thank you for this! This game is definitely getting a platinum for me at least on the PS5 physical disc deluxe edition! Excited to get into Hogwarts. 😍
I think it's funny that a 1-2 second pause to open the doors leading outside is a con when it's obviously loading. That kind of a loading screen/time 10 years ago would've been amazing.
Ahh, how refreshing to hear this in this age of video games! Thank you, sir.
It's hard to keep excitement for games going when the expectations devs present us with never come to fruition. This video was a great way to start my day.
Was so happy to see that you had released a review for this game! I’ve been waiting for this game for a very long time like many others. I always love your reviews! The one question I had was how big the world feels. Sorry if you mentioned that, and I just missed it.
There is a slider FOV on PC. Max you can add is +20
"The mullet of open world games." Classic line!
Your review was what I was waiting for. Not a huge Harry Potter fan but always found the hogwarts and potter lore interesting. Just got the deluxe!
Can you turn off all those dots, outlines and markers on the hud? Can you play without quest tracking, gathering and x-ray vision?
I hope that this game serves as a foundation for later games for the franchise.
I'm not a Harry Potter fan but this game really looks fun. I may check it out in the future. Thanks for another great review. I clicked so fast. 😆
I'm shocked by how good this looks. I really thought I was going to hold it against them leaving Quidditch out.
This is seriously emotional for me, I can`t put into words, the fact that the best reviewer felt so good about a game that is so important to me, Ive been waiting to experience hogwarts like this all my life, its an amazing feeling.... also absolutely weird that I was playing rdr2 while waiting for Hogwarts legacy and thinking "If only they played rdr2 and tried to make the world just a LITTLE like it" lmao, so good, I can't wait.
Been with you a long time; never disappoint. *Great review* once again. Thanks
7:05 damn that move looks satisfying to use

i hope that they have accessibility features like i discovered with the Forspoken demo, because i struggle with timing all the time and combat that requires timing sounds like it's going to make me too tense and give me lots of problems.
I just saw those gloves you had and now I really want to find loot O_O
"Muggledown Snickerdoodl" love the name 😂
So glad this looks dope af! I had high hopes for Forspoken, but - well. The spell system of the Harry Potter universe is deffo one of my favourites, with Jack Vance's Dying World taking the number one spot. Gonna pick this game up the moment I am done with this semester's tests.
It's good enough that it offers a lot of activities showed in the films, so the fan of the franchise can immerse themselves from the world of HP, which the OG HP titles in PS1 and PS2 did w/ platforming and puzzle solving. Like mandrake and spell class, and quidditch.
...but can you fly a car while outrunning a train?
There is no quidditch, according to the devs.
@@willbearheart1356 gad dang it
@@PikaLink91 sadly it deviates from the narrative of Harry himself. Since you can use gryphons to fast travel hope so lol
I can report the PC version does indeed have adjustable FOV settings. It's still not great. I can also report as have a bunch of other users on Steam, the game has a ton of stability and performance issues. I can normally play Dx12 games with Ray Tracing turned on with medium settings & DLSS set to Balanced, on a 2560x1080 monitor 60hz RTX 2080 32gb ddr5 I5 9700k & on a Samsung 2TB Evo M.2 drive and I'm still getting sub 30 fps in rooms where I'm the only character on screen. And that's with ray tracing turned off. But otherwise a phenomenal game! Review was spot on!!
You forgot to mention how at the end Harry Potter runs in and says "Wow this really was a Hogwarts Legacy"
Woah this was a far more positive review than expected.
Honestly looked great, too much to play right now but I will definitely get this as soon as I get some free time.
Something that I haven't seen in any reviews so far, are the dungeons. Would you say they are diverse and plentiful? I'm definitely looking forward to exploring each cave or secret passage I come across.
Unnecessary comma.
I had no expectations, my take was wait for review (and I will wait for a few more reviewers).
But I seems that is it at least good game I will for sure pick up.
Technically if I will be able to settle with something like 1440p with VRR I will be happy (I have no problem fiddling with the settings).
I’m happy for the devs and many didn’t believe they can deliver, I had my doubts too.
I love that things in class are not just add-ons. Sounds like a real part of the world. Excited about this.
Damn. This is way above what I expected. Glad to hear it's well worth getting right away. Thank you for the review ACG. Nowadays if there is one reviewer I can trust it's you.
I trust him and Skill Up, that's about it
honestly expected it to be boring but this sounds interesting.
@The Boulder takes issue with that comment those are the two that I trust. I USED to try and watch AngryJoe, but he doesn't really do game reviews anymore.
@@Karlach_ I'm up and down with Skill up, but that's why I watch a number of reviewers to get the full picture. If you just watch one, you only see their perspective. If you always share the same opinion with them, then that's great! I personally like to hear from multiple sources first.

Thanks for the review!
The game sounds exactly what was promoted, and what I want it to be, cannot wait to play it tomorrow!
Great review! This game looks better than I anticipated. I really appreciated your commentary on the music. A good soundtrack and audio make or break a game for me and I have always liked that your channel pays attention to that. Thank you for sharing.
Karak the fact you blur the text to not spoil the game it's what differentiates you from the rest 👏
That's also what I noticed. The lack of companionship. The best possible way I can describe this is that I felt like I had no friends. Like a freelance classmate doing some stuff for people and getting a reward for it.
Anyways, let's talk about the game. Felt quite similar tbh.
@GiRayne How are the ethics around this game complicated?
@GiRayne How many Harvey Weinstein produced movies do you still watch?
@GiRayne Come on…🙄
The world building and design is simply stunning!! Not even an Harry Potter fan but this looks great in gameplay and graphical wise. **Hats off**
Let’s hope that visual brilliance maintains during the performance mode(60fps).
Same, early videos the graphics looked average, but this review just dispelled that, it looks stunning and the world looks amazing to explore.
Graphics look dated
@@tel7625 Yeah same here, good to see an improvement instead of further downgrading the whole thing. Only thing that missed the mark are some faces but yeah i can live with that :)
The Incredible depth and absolute humor in this has won you a subscriber!
I'm a developer and i know how hard it is to make a game like this.. So happy for the team, congrats !
Im a janitor for a developers office, and you just said what was on my mind. Congrats 👏🎉
what do you think about the empty open world trend?
basically, make copy paste of same quest
Make map showing task list of what to do-> player are doing trask , no longer immersion of enjoying exploring game
copy paste npc, content and quest-? how do you feel ?
Yea definitely can see how hard it is to develop an awesome game like this! There is an incredible amount of animations from even the tiniest details! This game looks 👀 CPU intensive, and I am shocked that this game is cross Gen! Can’t imagine how the PS4 and Xbox One version performance runs.
When I get my PS5 I will get God of War and This game nuff said👍
Iam a family member of a janitor for a developers office and this really hit home, congrats 🥳
Why did you put a token trans? Either do it right or don't do it
I'm so glad this is good. We've been desperately grasping for a fantastic Harry Potter gaming experience for 2 decades now and it seems to have finally arrived.
@CyberHarleySamuraiRealiti no1 cares cry more
@CyberHarleySamuraiRealiti cry harder
@CyberHarleySamuraiRealiti Cus I'm sure that's explicitly worse than buying products from companies that bankroll human rights violations like child labor, forced labor, criminally low income, sexual abuse in the workplace, etc. on top of putting more money in billionaires pockets so they can continue to live hedonistic lifestyles and pay off officials to give them advantages over small business owners which they don't need, just want for extra bonus money. Gotta collect all dem yachts while funding essential slavery in other parts of the world. So yeah, lets feel guilty about buying a game where some of the profits go to some author in royalties whose opinions you find distasteful and abhorrent.
@CyberHarleySamuraiRealiti m8 we live in a capitalist society. give it up and just play the game.
@CyberHarleySamuraiRealiti
You’re projecting incredibly hard.
I actually burst out laughing at the "you get to walk with the exaggerated swagger of a Hogwarts student" 🤣🤣🤣
Great review as always, but that caught me off guard 😂
Amazing joke, definitely flew over some heads that aren't all-time gamers. Good stuff
Gaming journos at their...finest? Worst? Still not sure yet.
I watched this review about a week ago and was a bit suspicious of the cons. I bought it yesterday and played it a ton! I love it!
I came back to this review today and agree with this review 100%. The cons are cons, but negligible for me in comparison to the fun in having.
What I haven't tried is remapping keybinds (pc here). I like ESDF, and having multiple buttons within each is better. Luckily this game has the counter mechanic that the Batman series or Shadow of Mordor series has, meaning when an attack comes in, just hit the dodge button or shield button to get away for free.
The character does move forward with every attack though, so midway to the end of the fight, you're standing where you're enemy started. Super annoying.
Spot on review!
