So prepare your wands, put on your wizard robe and start exploring this incredibly magical world of Hogwarts which is an amazing homage to Harry Potter universe which set the bar so high, that not even Levioso could put other games on the same level.
As we near the end of this review, I have a small secret. I'm not someone you'd call a "fan" of the Wizarding World, at least not in the sense where I've got my own wand or want to down a butterbeer. I enjoy and appreciate the world that was built and the characters in it, but it's not like I got fully sucked in. That changed a little after a few dozen hours of playing Hogwarts Legacy. If you're a fan, you're in heaven, and if you're not ... well, this game might not make you love magic, but you'll certainly want to like it.

Played this together with my Wife. I was actually pleasantly surprised by the game, It felt like a mix of The Witcher 3 and the original Fable game to me.
Only reason I gave it a 9 is because of the collectibles, which were a bit of a pain to get.

Best game of 2023 so far and a fantastic tribute to this universe. Excellent job from Avalanche. Recommended!

Hogwarts Legacy is the wizarding adventure in the Harry Potter universe that fans have been waiting for for so long. A title that even those unfamiliar with the series will be able to enjoy if they let themselves be carried away by magic.
Hogwarts Legacy has succeeded in presenting players a huge, mysteriously beautiful 'Hogwarts'. While the game expands the franchise's thrilling, magical experience throughout the Highlands, it did not forget the delicate touches for the original fans. It is safe to say that this is the game where the Wizarding World you've dreamed unfolds right before your eyes.
Harry Potter fans will hardly find Hogwarts Legacy a forgettable experience. What really sets the game apart, though, is its ability to entertain and engage a wide audience with its unique combat, superb world-building and enchanting interactions. It does have edges that need refinement, but the game’s charm is powerful enough to make it one of the most memorable gaming experiences in recent years.
Hogwarts Legacy brilliantly captures the magic of the world of Harry Potter with its beautiful open world, engaging characters and exciting combat. While the open-world elements of the game make it feel more dated than we'd have liked, it's otherwise the best the Wizarding World has been in a video game.
Hogwarts Legacy delivers a perfectly competent adventure, but its most unforgivable curse is its lack of imagination. Despite having access to an entire universe of possibilities, its sole trick is using magic to cover up tired video game clichés that feel entirely disconnected from the vibrant source material it’s adapting. The only unique aspect it brings to the open-world genre is franchise branding, making for a shallow experience that doesn’t offer much more than wish fulfillment for fans unable to let go of a dream.
An excellent game, one of the best in 2023 and surely the best Harry Potter game ever created. Kudos to Avalanche, especialy when you take into consideration that is is their first attempt in the 3A business. Beautiful graphics, some of the best i have ever seen. Hogwarts and Hogsmeade were amazing. Combat system and gameplay in general was very fun. The only letdown was that, after 60 or so hours, it became a bit of collectathlon and repetitive. But thats the case with this type of open world games. At least for the platinum hunters. :)

hogwarts legacy è un titolo molto particolare che cerca di attirare il maggior numero di giocatori possibili, andando però a scontentare i giocatori più **** si prende questo titolo per vivere l'esperienza che si è letta nei libri, o vista nei film, questo titolo in parte fallisce questo **** vita all'interno del castello è completamente differente da quanto visto in harry **** lezioni rappresenteranno una parte minoritaria del titolo, in alcuni casi potremo effettivamente fare dei piccoli compiti, ma per lo più la struttura del gioco si baserà su gli insegnanti che ci danno due compiti particolarmente brutti, e poi una volta completati potremo apprendere il nuovo incantesimo, con un minigioco terribilmente inutili.i compiti che ci assegneranno non saranno mai interessanti perchè ci chiederanno per la maggior parte delle volte di andare fuori dal castello, fare delle prove di combattimento, o comprare dei progetti o pozioni e poi usarle.quella più pesante di tutte è stata quella di far nascere una creatura.quindi vai a catturare due creature una maschile e una femminile, vai a comprare il recinto dove metterli, e poi una volta terminato il tutto attendi 30 minuti la nascita del **** fraintendete però il titolo ha anche tante belle cose da **** digitalizzazione fatta nella ricreazione di hogwarts è semplicemente **** castello è davvero intricatissimo e pieno di segreti da scovare, che renderanno meno pesante il titolo.anche se diversi di questi segreti dovranno essere sbloccati tramite un enigma o un minigioco, carino la prima volta ma che una volta capito come si risolve non aumenterà mai di difficoltà, e risulterà parecchi iterativo doverlo fare ancora e ancora e **** cura riposta in questo lavoro non sta soltanto nella sua mappa, ma anche nella cura maniacale dei dettagli, che solo chi conosce la serie potrà cogliere.e questo va dal riconoscere e trovare luoghi iconici, fino a cose più piccole tipo un collezionabile che si basa sul fatto di seguire delle farfalle.però tutto questo viene depotenziato da un ia abbastanza basilare specialmente se si gioca in stealth, vi basti sapere che se spariamo un colpo sul muro il nemico andrà ad indagare, però se ci sono due nemici e spariamo un colpo prima a destra e dopo a sinistra, prima si sposterà il nemico 1 per andare ad indagare il colpo sparato a destra, puoi una volta che torna in posizione, il nemico 2 si accorgerà del colpo sparato 10 minuti prima e andrà ad indagare a sinistra.anche la varietà generale dei nemici non è molto varia, e questo è un grosso peccato visto lo sconfinato catalogo alla quale potevano attingere.avalanche software ha davvero fatto un enorme balzo in avanti qualitativamente parlando, pensando che fino a poco tempo fa faceva titoli tipo cars o disney infinity.però comunque i limiti al titolo si vedono tutti.portando ad avere un titolo che si è bello da esplorare e vivere, ma che alla lunga diventa un po troppo ripetitivo, ma che rimane nonostante tutto davvero un buon primo passo, che se si conosce la serie di harry potter è un acquisto quasi obbligato da fare.

Before sharing my thoughts on Hogwarts Legacy, I want to make clear that I'm not a Harry Potter fan or anything like that, I only played the game because it looked very intriguing and I wanted to give it a try.
I got to say though, after finishing my playthrough of Hogwarts Legacy, the game was not what I expected at all.
While the story's premise sounds decent on paper, the execution is... really bad; the vast majority of the main quests are either fetch quests and filler, making the pacing pretty much non-existent, and the story itself is filled with laughable amount of conveniences. Also, having to level up by doing chores in order to unlock main missions is tedious.
Same goes for the characters; they're just very bland for the most part, and unfortunately, same goes for the gameplay as well; it's just not fun, the combat is very easy and completely mindless, the RPG elements are very shallow, and it doesn't help that the enemy and dungeon variety is lacking. At least some spells are kind of unique and useful in different ways.
However, the visuals are amazing for sure and the presentation is very good too! There are some technical issues at times, but the game looks beautiful nonetheless.
As for the side-content, Hogwarts Castle is definitely the highlight of the game despite feeling a bit repetitive; it looks impressive and it has many collectibles and puzzles to find, while the rest of the world feels empty and boring.
Pros:
+ Cool premise
+ Interesting spells
+ Gorgeous visuals
+ Great presentation
+ Hogwarts Castle
Cons:
- Horrible story and uninteresting characters
- Awful pacing
- Dull combat system and RPG elements
- Poor variety
- Technical issues
- Repetitive side-content
Narrative: 2/10

For Harry Potter fans, Hogwarts Legacy is probably a good game made from fairly passionate developers, however, for everyone else, Hogwarts Legacy is a painfully uninspiring Open World RPG that does the bare-minimum.
Do I recommend it?:
I would recommend it only to Harry Potter fans or casual gamers.

Un juego muy sobre valorado e infantil. Si eres fan de Harry Potter imagino que te encantará, porque está lleno de detalles, pero para el resto de los mortales es un juego sencillo, repetitivo y muy aburrido.
Al cabo de 30 horas jugando y haciendo misiones principales, secundarias, los retos... el juego acaba siendo repetitivo y tedioso. Y lo peor es que los trofeos se hacen muy muy largos y aburridos de conseguir.
