Comment on Just finished Hogwarts Legacy, it was enjoyable but could've been better.

I agree. You hit all of the points that I felt the game fell short.
The castle was beautiful, but we didn’t spend rough time in it. Much of the open world felt like filler and it just wasn’t as enjoyable to be in.
The combat felt out of place in this game. Having a student running around killing people should not have been as normalized as it was. I think a focus on more non combat magic would have worked better. Some combat would be OK, but it should have been far rarer.

Yeah, just like OP, i just wanted to go to school, explore the castle, and skip class once on a while
Instead, a lot of the game is just running around murdering goblins. And my character is a total psycho… Just gleefully wiping people out with UNFORGIVABLE CURSES, WTF… using a curse is enough to land you in azkaban. Yet my character is just openly firing these curses off with impunity and the game seemingly doesnt give you any feedback that this is wrong, nor any deterrents. (Maybe there are some consequences later?? I put the game down for a while because the constant combat was too much for me)
Also, kidnapping animals, and putting them in your zoo so that you can harvest magical materials from them. How is that any better than the poachers???
Kids are going to have a warped sense of morality after playing this game

My character was straight up an actual poacher cause the best way to make money is selling creatures to that lady in Hogsmeade.
