What didn't you like about Hogwarts Legacy?
The gameplay, for one. Absolutely boring and repetitive, and of course they had to add a Souls roll. Triple attack into roll, insanely fun right guys? Boring story and boring characters, for an RPG, this is unacceptable. Exploration was a joke, there was nothing interesting to find. Keep in mind that this trashheap of a game was sold at full-price, the same year BG3 came out.
Also a big no-no, that shitty TERF J.K. Rowling profitting from the game.
What did you like about the game?
Tfw I liked it :( I thought the environments were engrossing and really felt like I was a kid exploring Hogwarts.
That's the key part of the game, people who grew up with the books and movies could play the game as a virtual world, the relaxing mini games and basic combat is an afterthought
Oh, well, clearly many other people enjoyed it and don't care about the TERF wars. Looks like Rowling got her "fuck you" money too, so I wouldn't expect any social justice activism to sway anything for a while.
Ah, thanks, forgot about the metric "many people enjoyed it" which makes any game instantly good.
Also do you really think I was doing "social justice activism", 11 months after release, on Lemmy of all places, to sway people? Lol, lmao even
Yeah the replies you’ve gotten are bullshit
“Why didn’t you like the game?”
explains why subjectively, you did not enjoy the fame
“GODDAMN ESS JAY DOUBLEYOU”
Folks on lemmy are usually better than this, but I guess there’s always some
You're also one of em
I like JK Rowling, and I think the trans activists who harassed her are fucking nut jobs that are just as bad as Trump supporters. Flame away.
I don't care
