"Previously a Person" is a nice, cozy game that is janky but is a lot of fun if you're a fan of the genre

Hogwarts Legacy is a great open-world action-adventure game but it is a very shallow RPG game. I unfortunately cannot recommend it as it falls flat as an RPG.

[Progression]
• No stats besides offense/defense, which means no skill checks and no extensive stats on gear. No item set bonuses, or unique effects/bonuses.
• Very linear story gameplay, choices are usually “Yes/No” or “Glad to help/Pay me for helping”. At the end, the game literally asks you if you want the “good” or the “bad” ending. Your choices along the way have little accumulative impact. This is a far cry from Mass Effect where individual choices throughout the playthrough have a resonating effect.
• You begin accumulating talent points at around level 6 but due to how easily you can level up by grabbing the field guides, it’s not uncommon to see people unlock the talent tree at level 15 which is terrible pacing.
• The character will make the same “oh wow I killed a dark wizard” comment at level 30 as they did at level 7.

[Economy]

• A level 6 legendary item and a level 30 item costs the same – 500 Galleons. Why doesn’t it scale with your level?
• One Thunderbrew potion is 1000 Galleons. Why is one temporary potion worth two best-in-slot items?
• No option to sell potions or materials gathered.
• All beasts sell for the same price, a Phoenix should be worth more than a Niffler.

[Stealth]

• Poorly designed, primitive and overpowered skill tree. Borderline exploitative in combat once fully upgraded. An AoE stealth kill? Really?
• Useless outside of combat – there is no crime system. The quest that introduces lockpicking talks about using stealth in tandem with lockpicking to avoid getting caught. Which is great if NPCs actually cared about you lockpicking buildings, which they don’t. You can literally rob Hogsmeade in broad daylight and no one will bat an eye.

[Friendly NPCs]

• No assigned beds and no sleep schedule. This goes together with lockpicking – there are no NPCs sleeping in beds or even existing in homes. You break into someone’s house in the middle of the night, the lights are on but no one’s home.
• Hogwarts students don’t sleep at night and disappear when the sun sets like reverse vampires.
• No pathing in Hogsmeade, NPCs stand in a circle saying the same thing over and over to each other.
• I’ve seen countless times identical NPCs spawn next to each other, lacking in variety.

[World Building]
• All of the little hamlets found in the world are indistinguishable from one another. The NPCs in one hamlet say the same things as the NPCs at Hogwarts or any other hamlet.
• Dungeons all start to blend together, due to little enemy variety. All of them have a chest with random loot that you’ve been looting for hours. (I’ve gotten the First Year Cap head item over and over again countless times, as an example).

[Play Time Fluffers]

• With selling gear being the main source of income, the devs had purposefully made the inventory slots for gear in your bag be very limited. They want you to complete “Trials of Merlin” to increase your bag space OR port back to a vendor to sell your items. There are over 90 Trials of Merlin.
• Demiguise, Field Pages, Astronomy Tables, etc. all feel like they are designed to pad play time without any real impact.
• Lockpicking game is unnecessary.

Overall it’s a pretty and fun action-adventure game but it was marketed as an RPG that lets you immerse yourself as a Hogwarts student and that you can “go down a dark path” if you so choose. But that is not true and the experience is very hollow. The game feels a bit childish as there is little at stake here; there are no house rivalries and no rude friendly NPCs (besides the headmaster). It’s a very “on the rails” rollercoaster ride that errs on the side of “slow and safe”, not taking risks or being particularly exhilarating.

It sure is graphically stunning though, and no one can deny that.

Was having fun but then they nerfed cheese boooooooo

Cyberpunk 2077: Only the rich with their power and connections can enjoy Night City, all others suffer.
Real Life: Only the rich with their beefy computers and next-gen consoles can enjoy Night City, all others suffer.

Be me, build a little hamlet for people to live in
Realize I need a wife ASAP to continue on my lineage
Find a 53 year old MILF in the village
She turns me down, as I am too young for her
I am pining for her bosom
I remain chaste, waiting for her hand in marriage
Many seasons pass, as I grow older so does she
Finally accepts my hand in marriage
Giggity giggity
But oh no, she is menopausal
Life goes on, I continue my craft
After a long trek in the wilds, a bear takes my life
Game over, for I could produce no children

10/10 game, recommended

You return as the DOOMGUY, the most savage mute since Gordon Freeman. You will huff and puff through massive amounts of hellspawn in order to complete your mission, at any means necessary. This installment successfully captures the essence of the classic Dooms while presenting a graphically optimized product that looks spectacular even on a mid-grade PC.

In a game market where FPS campaigns present moral objections to the enemies you kill (i.e Raiders in Fallout 4 who are just regular people trying to survive) DOOM abolishes that, giving you pure glorified kill-fest of various demonic scum with no resentment or remorse for their lives. It's a pure spectacle of a run-and-gun game, reminiscent that of the 90's shooter that caused much controversy in it's day.

Multiplayer is also enjoyable, especially if you're good at it or got good friends to play it. Playing as a Baron of Hell (especially on Warpath/Domination gametypes) is both exhilarating and satisfying. There is nothing else that is too ground breaking here, but it's still a breath of fresh air from the military shooters we've come to expect from the FPS Multiplayer market.

SnapMap is advanced enough for a regular user. Unless you're an exceptional modder, SnapMap will more that satisfy your interest in developing your own custom content. Major props to ID for making the custom maps being able to shared across platform, creating a truly expansive community of Snappers.

Definitely worth a pick-up, a lot of hours of gameplay to be found here for all three sections of the game. Rip and Tear, fellow marines, rip and tear.
