Tiziano's Boy Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Spoiler I’m being a bad boy with Sebastian and heading to the dark side, he’s already thought me Crucio

TaggedGalaxy Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 I need to see some performance reviews before I buy. I can’t decide if I want this on PS5 or PC. I’m concerned my PC won’t be able to run it optimally

The PC Gamer reviewed it on perfectly PC normal specs and didn't mention any major technical issues but I've read others with more powerful PCs having issues Makes me think there are some internal settings that need to be changed It doesn't seem as busted on PC as some other recent AAA games but PS5 is certainly the safer option!

Yeah I’m leaning toward PS5 right now, I heard people with 3080s were experience FPS drops and lag but there’s also apparently a day one patch coming. 4 minutes ago, Magickarp said: Digital Foundry didn't get a review copy so that might be a while u can check this out tho Mess sounds like a Forspoken situation, I’ll wait for Digital Foundry and just be patient
Magickarp Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 After watching that video i think the Quality > Performance tbh Which Mode will u guys be using? The draw distance in Quality vs Performance @ 2:33 & 15:27 Ray Tracing doesn't seem worth it apart from some minor areas. That reflective floor @ 6:03 was 🔥 Anyway the Switch version is gonna serve AVADA-KED-
TeamThiem Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 oh boy...another game to buy! Still playing God of War: Ragnorak (16 hrs in). Crisis core is next for me and now there is this game. So much entertainment and such little time. I can barely tell a difference between the modes, LOL
Starshine Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 I can’t stop playing The way Elden Ring had a grip on me last February 2022 and now this game. I really hope this becomes a series and has a sequel.
BODERLINE Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Spoiler The Room of Requirement is insane omg. Not me thinking I was gonna unlock it then go to bed, only to spend TWO hours customizing it. And STILL not be done customizing it. It's fantastic. The devs knocked it out of the park omg
Haze Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 I've been playing for about twelve hours, so some thoughts as of yet (no spoilers!): - the main draw remains hogwarts itself, which is so beautifully realised. I haven't unlocked the alohomora spell yet, but I'm not really feeling that metroidvania aspect of it. The castle is too big and unintuitive (which I don't mean in a bad way) to reward exploration in that kind of way. The collectibles are largely optional but sort of take away from its beauty. It feels very Ubisoft in that way, and I don't particularly care for it. - i don't know if its just me but i somehow always end up playing during in game night? It's so dark though. You can get around that by Lumos, but everytime you use another spell you have to cast it again and it's sort of tiring. - the main character fills the screen too much. It could have used a slightly more top down perspective, in certain corridors his body is literally the only thing I can see. - i might be a bit spoiled by Nintendo polish here, but the controls feel unwieldy. It's just not snappy or tight. - despite the occasional bug where my broom won't slow down, nothing has topped flying around the castle for me. Genuinely great, a win for nostalgia. - story isn't anything great so far, but also not annoying. The problem for me is that it has inherited the same ethical problems as the books, and the main story (so far!) seems very much like it won't dare to think within its world, and more or less keeps repeating Rowlings (awful) worldbuilding. - the area around Hogwarts, while consistently beautiful, is very same-y, which is realistic but i literally can't tell anything apart from each other. Doesn't help that the map sucks to navigate. Thank god for that magical compass! -the combat is fun enough, though I still struggle with the controls. This is really nitpicky, but I always hated how the movies made duels seem like gunfights, and this game largely copies that. I wish the magic was more colorful. Colour is something I miss overall, but again, that is completely in line with the last four movies and the fantastic beast ones. Despite all this i'm still having a really fun time! But I think BOTW spoilt me in how seamless an open world experience can be, and this isn't that. It's clearly a labour of love though, and most of it feels like growing pains rather than outright faults.
If U Seek Amy Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 I am absolutely in love with it so far. Its truly a dream HP game for fans

ClashAndBurn Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 11 hours ago, Haze said: It's perfectly ok to enjoy the game without posting terfs and transphobes in this thread. That account is vile. Okay? Didn’t know the person was a terf or a transphobe, and Twitter’s algorithm elevates tweets from right wingers I don’t follow all the time. Doesn’t change the fact that she’s right about this one thing, and that the terminally online, militant fringe of the trans community has taken a massive L with the boycott not only failing but actively promoting the game and making it more successful, and they have made the broader community look bad and unhinged to the general public as a result.
X~MoviePoP Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 PLAY WIZARD101 instead. Its cuter and more fun!!!! *runs*
Tiziano's Boy Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 How many hours has everyone put into the game already? I'm 7 hours in, and I've just bought a broom at Spintwitch's Sporting Needs shop.
Tiziano's Boy Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Guys, don't go on Twitter, people boycotting the game are posting huge spoilers to the ending, be careful cause I just seen one on Twitter.

Ugh, I hate that I'm barely at home (except during the summer) so spending so much money on a console feels like wasting money
