Hogwarts Legacy Review - Duuro Magazine

Duuro says: "Hogwarts Legacy is a fantastic game that will appeal to both Harry Potter fans and gamers looking for an engaging action-adventure RPG. The game’s attention to detail, immersive world-building, and engaging combat make it a must-play for anyone looking to experience the magic of the wizarding world. I highly recommend playing this game."

Perfect score seems a little excessive, honestly...

smolinsk398d ago

Its absolutely not a 10 score game. So many things in the game is not well done. Boring looting and exploration with nothing in caves and so on. Clumsy map. Very repetitive and out dated graphics. But still the best Potter game out there.

GoodGuy09398d ago

Agreed. They have plenty to improve on a sequel should they do one and considering how much it sold, it's more than likely....and hopefully include quidditch...
But all in all, a good game, it could've been much worse and go the live service and heavy on microtransactions direction which I'm happy about.

Inverno398d ago

IDK about that tbh. Those older HP games have a lot of charm to them and they're fun with the light puzzles and platforming. I can't really consider it the best HP game made cause it's just another generic open world game with a HP theme. The best part of the game takes a backseat to the rest of the game, despite being called Hogwarts Legacy.

Was Hogwarts Legacy Only Successful Because Of Nostalgia?

Shahmeer from eXputer: "I've always wondered whether the success of Hogwarts Legacy had much to do with nostalgia. The RPG is great but certainly not free of issues."

Markdn29d ago

I totally agree, and no replay value for sure but enjoyed every minute I was playing it. Not a Harry Potter fan but still really enjoyed

Lexreborn229d ago

I still haven’t finished it, mostly due to it not holding my interest after 20 hours. Wouldn’t say it’s a bad game, wouldn’t say it’s amazing I really can’t judge it fully due to not completing it.

Lexreborn229d ago

lol are people upset because I said I put 20 hours into the game and that because I haven’t finished I won’t criticize it’s value or if nostalgia generates it’s success? That’s funny

CrimsonWing6929d ago

Harry Potter is one of the biggest IPs in the world. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out why it sold so much. It’s a great game on top of that, so the math kind of maths here.

Can’t wait for the article on if Zelda or Mario only sold well due to nostalgia.

Crows9029d ago

They're trying to find a fake reason for its success...the mainstream hate how successful it became because of the writer behind the series.

So now they want to say that people bought it not because they liked it but only because of nostalgia....as if harry potter is really that old or even a classic IP in the game industry.

thorstein28d ago

That doesn't even make any sense. The author made those statements before the game released. People knew ahead of time and wanted a boycott.

But most people knew any boycott would only punish the people who worked on the game and put their hearts into it (like most boycotts).

So many people bought it, enjoyed it immensely, and moved on.

VenomUK28d ago

@CrimsonWing69 A greatly in demand IP only takes you so far, if it was crap quality then the reviews and word of mouth would have stalled its sales. But it is a good game (judged by Metacritic and user reviews) and that has given the game legs.

Tzuno29d ago (Edited 29d ago )

ngl, it got me in the first half hour
after that, a big let down, mediocre at every step
only fans are praising it

Markdn29d ago

In what way was it mediocre, can't really find anything about it that was mediocre and I'm not a hp fan

Demetrius29d ago

It's still a good game almost time for a 2nd playthrough, the passion they put into it is🔥🔥 crazy how after a couple months or a year folks get to complaining about this n that about certain games smh childish mfs
