    In my own opinion, I totally agree with the points made and my own expectations would be character customization, it's good in HL now but it could be better? I could be the only one who thinks that lol. I just didn't entirely enjoy the face presets and how you could only have a certain face without being about to change your facial features (which I can understand of course). Personally, I don't like how hair kind of cuts through the scarfs/hoods, that might just be me again though, personal opinion. And I totally love the idea of the holidays/student life! I think I heard dialog about the Yule ball from the npc students during Winter and it was a little disappointing because as a player with ancient magic, fighting goblin etc etc, you're less of a student and more of a 15 year old hero/overworked auror or something. I wish that they could implement those relationships/friendships like they planned before taking it out to lean more into the action rpg; I'd love, love it if we could attend certain holiday events with friends or potential love interests. I would like it if it was more like HP in the sense that the player finds friends and the group goes and does great things like Harry, Ron and Hermione (while still being students) and being held accountable for any rule breaking they might do. To continue on with student life, it's been said before but I wanna be in my dorm, I wanna live in my hobbit like common room lmao, I'm tired of sleeping outside! 😂Someone (kayceeisonfire) mentioned owl care, writing letters (I think that'd be really cool to meet up with other characters if needed, too. Like a quest that requires you to physically write a letter to the character you need to contact rather than immediately meeting up(unless that's a tad much?)), using mirrors and their wardrobe, other room functions and I'd totally enjoy that if the player mainly stays in Hogwarts rather than running around outside school grounds. And not to mention that we go in and out of the Forbidden Forest and students aren't supposed to be in there--or am I crazy?/lh The photo mode we have currently kind of sucks? I play on a pc and it's a bit wonky for me but it's alright? I haven't heard much about it from other people, wish it was a little easier to navigate. What do the people think about it lol? For Quidditch I think it'd be cool if somehow the player has a choice to actually join the Quidditch team or to watch rather than play the game yourself (maybe choose your position and have a cutscene if you win when you do decide you want to play during matches or like Verdict says, the house cup). To fall back on gear and buying it or etc, after a while I got a lot of money but nothing to spend it on. You can purchase clothes at the shop but then have no use for them stat wise (unless you wanna dress your avatar up nicely). I thought that was a little disappointing too because who wants money but nothing to spend it on? After you buy everything, you don't need to buy much unless you need certain ingredients for potions (troll bogies, ashwinder eggs, so on) or other potential purchases.

    My list is this: 1. Quitich 2. Working multi-player for quitich, a pvp dueling and/or racing mode, and a co-op campaign. 3. Deep broom controls that have a low skill floor and a high skill ceiling. 4. Improved loot system. 5. Improved gear system. 6. A fully fleshed out companion system. 7. Unique spell sets, skills, and fighting styles for each companion. 8. Better companion ai. 9. More stuff in the castle (classes, secrets, etc.) 10. Uses for the dorm rooms (sleep mechanic, time sensitive assignments and quests, etc.) 11. More mechanics to the classes. 12. A working karma/morality system that truly effects the story, ending, and how the world interacts with you. 13. A branching story that will change depending on which companions like you or hate you, your character's reputation, and which spells you do and don't learn depending on if u missed out on them due to the karma and time systems. 14. Make the map outside of hogwarts not as tedious and repetitive to explore. 15. (this only applies if the main character is not the same one from the first hogwarts legacy) Real wand and sorting hat quizzes and reatctions and interactions throughout the game that make those quiz results feel important. 16. Bigger list of spells to learn with missable spells. This means that the list of garunteed, therefore required, spells should be small. This, of course will mean that they either have to get rid of the spell requirement system all together, or implement it in a way that facilitates and/or compliments a branching story. 17. More to the beast system. I know this is a lot, but with how popular HL is I have no doubt that they have the time and resources to make HL2 something truly groundbreaking and fantastic.

    Good video! I agree on all points. Drawing us back to Hogwarts, and keeping the narrative centered around Hogwarts, the forest, and Hogsmeade for the majority of the game. Here are some additional points from my personal wishlist. 1. More common room events/mini games/quests. 2. More loot objects: e.g. spellbooks to unlock hidden spells or spell upgrades, potion recipes, collectibles like wizard cards, and rare relics (e.g. maybe we can find the cup of Hufflepuff, or a potential rare wielding of the sword of Gryffindor). 3. A quest in the Department of Mysteries w Hecat. 4. Dementors and patronuses, and a patronus skill tree where you go from non-corporeal to corporeal to powerful, etc. 5. Trading collectibles w other students for an honest alternative to earn galleons. 6. A better villain, more mystery, and plot twists. 7. More personalities. Everyone is too friendly and there are no bullies. Add a bully or an antagonist inside of Hogwarts and it can add a lot to the story and the feel of being a student. 8. At least one Peeves boss fight. Need I say more? 9. Sitting. 10. More secret passages and corridors. Lots of potential here! 11. More variety in enemies. E.g. werewolves, banshees, grindylows, gnomes, and erklings.

    • @TheVerdictIO
      @TheVerdictIO Месяц назад

      1. Yes please! 2. Like, the idea of having to work hard for a spell really intrigues me. I love the idea that spells don't come easy (at least the good ones) where I have to "unlock" some of them in a more difficult way. 3. The department of Mysteries could be an hour long quest easily. 4. Yes! A patrounuse was really hard to produse. Some just had a "wisp" come out of their wands. I like the idea that it grows over time. 5. Economics is really important in a game, and I like the idea that there isn't just one way to earn money. Be the entrepreneur you want to be. 6. Yes, I liked the villain in this game, but it wasn't fleshed out all that well. 7. The person you compete against in flying seems to be a bully. However, I don't like the option that you are either a bully or an amazingly nice person. I like the variety of personalities in characters, including the one we are controlling. 8. A Peeves boss fight? LOL! I don't know if it needs to be a boss fight, but YES! why not have Peeves just really mess up your day on a quest you are doing! Love it! 9. I can run around all day! 10. SOOO much potential. 11. Bold of you to end on a prime number like 11. ;-)

As a fan of this game, and of the HP Universe, these are my top 10 suggestions for what I hope HL 2 comes out with. What type of games are you into? I'll give them a look and hopefully a review down the road. Thanks!

    I think Hogwarts Legacy 2 should be more like Persona 5 and Fire Emblem Three Houses with the narrative branching and how the calendar year works. Having some days where you have to go to classes, complete assignments and give room for quests and story. I would also like more characters to interact with and the ability to make friends and get their help on quests and assignments. A better name for the sequel should be Hogwarts Eternal where it would take place present day when you are a 7th year student and have the ability to see children of the characters from the books and movies

More voice actors besides the one at various tones, more options for faces, better looking hair, and maybe a few others things to give people a lot of freedom. To be fair though I usually don't play games with the realistic looking graphics, I lean more towards the more animated style. (Also the hats sometimes looked a bit odd on the character)

  • @marcospaulodasilva7624
    @marcospaulodasilva7624 Месяц назад

    There are so many things I would like to see in a sequel, but my Top 5 are this: 01 - A system of morality linked to the House Cup. Do we complete tasks given by teachers? We win points for our house. Did we get caught wandering around the school after dark? We lose points for our house. Do you find teachers’ tasks boring? Be nice to everyone, make a good impression and earn points for being an exemplary person. Don't want to get caught wandering around school? Start discovering new secret passages, to go unnoticed. And so on. 02 - Romance. I know the characters are teenagers and that makes some people worried, but I don't think romance needs to be all about riding a stuffed unicorn like in The Witcher 3.haha We can have some comedic moments, Harry Potter style, even thinking about games like Fable for inspiration. Want to take someone out on a date? You choose the place, which can be something really romantic like a picnic by the lake or the Shrieking Shack (a partner might like the place, right?) Want a moonlit walk? Prepare a safe route well or risk ending up in the dungeon, like Mr. Weasley in his youth. And if you think that's not enough, the next romantic encounter will be in a double detention in the Black Forest. 03 - Companion system. Something that often happens during the game and that makes me uncomfortable is not being able to invite a friend to spend more time with us, even when it would be the ideal time to do so. Like going on a mission with Poppy, hearing her talk over and over about how much she loves magical creatures and never being able to say "Won't you come with me to the Room of Requirement? I set up a super safe zoo for them there. You'll definitely love it !" Or being able to create wizard chess tables but never having anyone to play a game. Even Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, on PlayStation 2, already allowed us to play wizard chess in Gryffindor Tower. So why not be able to do the same in the next game and even use it as a way to make the common rooms cooler. 04 - Quidditch. I hope to see the director announcing that the Quidditch championship is back, with several main games as you progress the main plot, but also several friendly games for the post-game. Something that you can always win or lose, regardless of how much you increase your raw power in magic would be really cool, to try over and over again. 05 - New areas. I certainly think we need to spend more time inside Hogwarts, but I also think we should explore some really different areas. Go to Diagon Alley to buy our materials at the beginning of the game. Being able to actually travel inside the Hogwarts Express, chatting with friends and getting something done before arriving at the castle. Being able to choose between spending Christmas at Hogwarts or at home (or at a friend's house). The latter could yield something in the style of Rise/Shadow of Tomb Raider, where we have a map of the Croft mansion and can do some missions remembering Lara's childhood and the people she met between 30 minutes and 2 hours of gameplay. It would be really cool to get to know more about our character and also our colleagues. And... I think I've already written a lot.haha

Not that it isn't beautiful, but there's nothing out there besides 30 merlin puzzles and some balloons and a castle or two to be used as side-quest locales. (those were easily the most fleshed out areas) The small towns scattered about weren't TERRIBLE, but it felt like there was 40 people total living in all of the surrounding areas outside Hogsmeade and Hogwarts. And half of their total significance was 2 people: the Sallows. edit: Conversely, If they don't want to pull the focus of the story back in a bit and make it tighter I would like them to make the world a bit bigger and emptier actually. Once you unlock flying the scope of it shrinks quite a bit, and I would have loved a larger world to make the small towns that did exist feel important and not just 5 people living at a road junction. And the Merlin Puzzles, my god. Every 10 feet.

    Diagon alley not being included was more disappointing than quidditch for me. I think the game lacked that separation between the Wizarding world and the muggle world, and Diagon alley is the gateway between the worlds

    I don't agree with a few statements. First I liked the revelio mechanic and its really helpful but the sound is annoying it's true. Second I don't care about the classes. I want to play the game and explore the world if I wanted to watch them sit in classes I would simply turn Harry potter on.

      Yeah, there is a divide on this opinion. The developers saw this too, and they chose what you and a lot of gamers wanted in the game. Which was more of an RPG action game. One day, I hope to get a student simulation, but I understand why they went the route that they did.

    My biggest complaint for something easily fixed is give us the bloody plaid uniform that all the other students wear as the starting uniform we wear. It's so dumb how they give us a completely different one. Something for the next game is have our friends accompany us more on our actual main journey (the ancient magic stuff). I guess story wise it makes more sense for it to be Ominis and Sebastian (though he is a bit tricky for obvious reasons). But the quests with those two were my favourites since it reminds me of the golden trio.

    • @TheVerdictIO

      Yeah, in HL2, of Sebastian returns, they will need to ask us the players how we judged him in HL1 for it to make sense.

    Why doesn't the players character have any real friends? Once the main quests are over no one speaks to you and that makes the game less interesting and makes me quit p0laying after a few hours even though I am not finished with the game, I just feel irritated by everyone who just wants something from you, I don't even know all those people in the villages, so why would I risk my life to find a Niffler someone lost or search for the key to the bells for instance. Its not like they serve any real purpose to the quests. I would rather be searching for answers to things like my back story or a hint as to what the enemy might be planing. When setting up the character they need to add Blood Status . personality traits Extrovert/ introvert, Is your Character Angry, Laid back, Moody, Optimistic, are they Self Centered like Draco or more like Luna who would help everyone or Like Neville who despite everything stands up and fights no matter what for what is right, those are clear cut personalities. Those things should effect how the Character interacts with others and where the story line should go for each individual Just as what house you opt for depicts certain aspects of game play and would make it so there were more options for how the story line might progresses based on the chosen traits

      That would be cool, but it could break lore though. The last time the Goblet of Fire Tournment was done was back in 1792. It was deemed too dangerous until brought back in 1994 when Harry was at school. However, if they were to set the time period back in 1792, that would keep the game true to the lore, and give us fans a great Triwizard Tournament!

    The transmog feature allows you to wear anything while having the best powerful outfits. For example, you can wear a hat but make it invisible. It is an inconvenience to constantly weave new magical elements to new outfit pieces but the transmog kept you from looking like Luna Lovegood. I ended up just wearing my school uniform the whole game while using more and more powerful outfits.

    I loved the game but was so annoyed that I had to go to so many caves and tombs for missions… for the sequel: 1. I’d love if you can follow up your character, like using the PS or WB account to continue with the MC in the sequel… 2. More classes and more missions inside school. 3. I am pretty indifferent to Quidditch and wasn’t a big fan of the flying mechanics but most people want to have it so, why not? 4. KEEP SEBASTIAN as a main companion! He was my favorite of all companions. 5. A new mystery (we had the keepers, can we get the founders now?) but a mystery centered in Hogwarts and that gets solved in the school. 6. Branching narrative - take a page from The Dark Pictures or The Wolf Among Us. 7. A story where the previous companions (Natsai, Poppy, and Sebastian) are part of the core 4 with MC. Again, just like the books where they all solve the mystery and meet new people. 8. More missions like The Haunted Shop, or Trial #3 or the Hufflepuff Jackdaw quest. 9. Start a new storyline that would lead to sequels (think Goblet of Fire setting up the next 3 books) 10. A series big bad. We need a good villain.

    • @TheVerdictIO
      @TheVerdictIO Месяц назад

      1. Agreed 2. Yep! 3. Agreed, but I think it needs to be apart of the story some how. I'm okay with not playing it as we will get Quidditch of Champions soon, but to not have it at all seems wrong for a Harry Potter story. 4. That's a hard one though, because what did you decide is Sebastian's fate? It will be different for different people. However, going back to your first idea on #1, perhaps your WB account can have different re-intros for the character depending on what you chose in Hogwarts Legacy 1. 5. Yes! Something about the founders would be awesome! 6. Yep. I've never played "The Dark Pictures", but the trailers look insane! 7. eh, I somewhat disagree with this one because Natasi wasn't friends with Poppy really nor was she with Sebastian. And Poppy wasn't friends with Sebastian either. However, the concept of getting a core 4 is what I would like to see. Maybe it's yoru choice as a player who you want your core 4 to be after playing a few hours and deciding which relationship you want to build. Or maybe its what house you are in gives you a new set of core 4. A lot of possibilites with this concept. 8. The Haunted Shop was beyond amazing. This is where I would be okay with leaving Hogwarts for a period of time. If it was just some side quest that took me to MofM, or some other place outside the school grounds with that level of story telling, then I'm in! 9. Exactly! That was one of the problems with the main story. It just sort of ended abruptly and didn't have a lot of payoff to it. 10. I didn't mind Rockwood as a Villain. However, I would like to see someone more powerful as the the main "series" villain. For example, the Malfoys were always a villain in the stories, but it was Voldemort as the over arching villain for the entire series. AND YES! I forgot about a patronus spell in my own list. Really, more spells all together, but how is patronus not on the list!
