"clearly" the book reads its [self] like a kendal fire probably feels as cheap too not gonna lie though a potions book that read its self would of been way cooler
This has to be one of the most hideous collector edition item I have ever seen FFS, how in the world could they come with something as silly and horrible as this lame book?
@@Thorz74 especially with a franchise with such iconic merch and imagery. Personally, I would’ve made 4 separate house-themed collectors editions with maybe a house scarf or robe set, house poster, or something pertaining to house merch. It wouldn’t be much of a risk as that stuff sells quite quickly
@@secondchance6603 that's because New Zealand knew better and protected it's citizens from being shammed on spending hundreds of dollars on a cheap magnetic gimmick 😂😂😂
A few nights ago on Friday night steam had a error and they had added it to there sale area for $5.99 for the deluxe edition it only lasted for like 30 min and I was able to buy it they sent me a email explaining the error and they said I can keep it for that price wow I was so happy
@@zoopa9988 yeah my bad, I was just making the bigger point that it’s a limited exclusive questline, the only true exclusive if the ps5 outfits and it’s just one cloak for each house
@@isabellaskye9950 It still gives PS users a better start in the game for over a year which is quite annoying. They should at least give other platforms something as a way of making sure not one person is ahead of the game just because of the platform they are using.
You should absolutely watch the movies, but keep in mind that this game is set in an entirely different timeframe and has no character overlaps (so that its your story rather than you being part of Harry Potter's story) so it's not even essential to know those stories. Obviously there's shared family names with the original story and plenty of references but it seems fairly open to those who don't know the books/movies. Amazing to see non-fans excited for the game though! I've loved Harry Potter for a long time and seen a fair bit of gatekeeping surrounding the game, but I hope you enjoy the stories as much as I do :)
you’ve never watched the movies? brother take some time off and get it done you won’t regret it. wish I could wipe my memory and watch it all over again.
I was working myself up to drop $100-$120 for the collectors edition but I think I’ll buy the deluxe… a magnetic wand is cool and the kelpy robe is alright plus the mission and personal store sounded awesome but not for $300👏🏻
I wish people stopped buying more expensive versions of a game for items and skins that are already in the game. Maybe then this shit trend will die out
@@bestmaaad I think it really depends on what the expensive version is. I bought the Collections Edition of Titanfall for my husband, back in the day. It was ~$200 (cant remember the exact price) but it came with this MASSIVE (over a foot tall), heavy/well-made statue. That thing is still in our game room, and everyone who comes in and sees it is like "WOAH! That's cool". It really is pretty awesome. I think if an expensive version of the game actually comes with memorabilia that's worth $100+, and that memorabilia is something you would buy for your home collection, then it's worth the money.
While I will still be picking this up, I'm not overly pleased with the idea of platform exclusive content. Exclusivity deals in and of themselves irk me greatly these days, what with the increased reliance on digital distribution, but I understand why said deals exists. I do find it reprehensible that content is being locked away from customers based on their platform of choice. Even if this is only for x amount of time.
@Pierre Slowed 🎶 The only advantage PS has over PC is the ability to play a game that looks like dogshit. I'll take my 120fps ultra quality over PS graphics anyday
Agree. I’m buying on PS5 due to the controller extras, but I’m not happy even though I will get the extra content for PS5. It’s a ugly business practice.
While I know a lot of people are eager to play, the smartest route is probably to just wait a few weeks. That will give time for full independent reviews to come in and for major bugs to get fixed so that your initial playthrough experience is better. Or if you really want to get the pre-order cosmetics, at least wait until the last second to order so you can get some feedback from the early players, playing non-stop the first couple days, to get an idea if it will be a buggy mess at release.
@@nicolassalathe6905 i literally feel the same way! It can be a whole bubbky pile of hogswash and i woild still play it just to fly around hogwarts. Like my favorite thing about the ps5 spiderman was finally being able to zipp around the city as spidey and it felt perfect.
@@mynameisinigomontoya8179 I share accounts with my brother, for the extra $10 I get everything I want on the PS5 and he gets the game for free a little later. Thats at least why I'm about it.
@@mynameisinigomontoya8179 we all use the PS4 Pro in our family room, so I would like to have access to it there for my kids and an alternate evil play through when I’m killing time in that room.
I mean the amount of things to do in this game, that people with spend months on each of them: 1) Each common room, finding every nook and cranny for everything 2) The castle itself: finding all the halls, paintings, secrets, puzzles, rooms, easter eggs, and just soaking in every nook of the castle and it's grounds as well. 3) Room of Requirement: customizing your room and magical creature pasture 4) The entire open world will take months of walking and flying around just to see it all from a high level. 5) Finding all the secrets and easter eggs out there to find too (which might take you walking the entire thing) 6) Seasons which will make you want to go places multiple times 7) Playing as good then as bad to see gameplay differences 8) Classes if there's any component of you having to memorize anything to pass any tests etc. And then you have the actual gameplay and story line to follow This will be the biggest game of the year sales wise, purchase wise, and gamer channel viewing wise no doubt.
I hope you are right. And indeed, the footage looks promising. But AAA games in recent years... low expectations and you can only be satisfied, amazed even. High expectations and you could risk great disappointment.
Lol all that can be done in probably a month or less. Look at the games this studio has previously made...this game is for the people who wanted to make their own hogwarts journey with exploring sprinkled throughout but it’s nowhere near as detailed as any Harry Potter movie or book. The world here looks pretty empty so I wouldn’t expect too much
Yeah you're getting your hopes up way to high with this list brother. No shot it will have all that it should be a good RPG experience, not months worth of detail in each common room lmao
The only thing that makes me wanna get the deluxe edition is the extra battle arena; cosmetics and 3 day early access I really don't much care for. But I'm not really in a rush so I may just get the standard and buy the extra arena later.
@@windangel08 I bought the digital on PSN. You bought the physical copy, I take it? And I'm sorry that you have to wait, brother. I'm barely able to wait the 3 weeks.
This game looks amazing. I do wish they would have made a good and evil system like Fable. Those games were so fun choosing whether to be good or bad and seeing the repercussions in the world
The disappointing thing for me is no online co-op. When I first saw this game being able to play with some friends was my first thought then that went out the window. It would have increased the long term fun factor for sure.
yeah, that kept me from pre-ordering it. I'll wait for a sale or something. Still, I hope people are happy with their purchases and enjoy it. I'd just prefer a multiplayer experience.
@@DanniTheL You're missing out on one of the best games out there, i already got 12 hours in it and it's so damn addicting. it doesn't let you be bored at all.
I hear you. Honestly this game looks too good to be coming from a studio who has produced a total of zero triple A titles before it. But we have been surprised before and all the pre release stuff they’ve been showing looks great.
@@mandrews6282 Agree, the last games this team worked on were Cars 3 and a now failed and defunct Wizards Unite mobile game. The problem is that a large portion of this games target audience aren't gamers, they're Harry Potter fans who are buying consoles for the first time just to play this. Even if the game is unfinished, below par or buggy, these kinds of players will accept it and play it regardless; much like the Pokémon fanbase.
When I looked at this video I thought this was a 100k subscribers RUclipsr, but I looked at the subscriber count, there was only 1k, this guy needs WAY more!
I wonder if Pre-Ordering the standard edition will still be available on Steam on the 7th, 8th, and 9th of Feb. I have had too many bad experiences with the release of highly hyped pre-orders. Anyone remember Cyberpunk 2077 or Battlefield 2042? My plan is waiting to hear the feedback from players that pre-ordered the deluxe edition when they get their 3 day head start.
you know how you get a few hours before your refund expires on games? I wonder how thatd work if we pre-order... can I pre-order, see gameplay and reviews, then just refund if I dont like what I see?
@@666narutomanfan I think that would be dependant on the refund policy of each platform. For example, Steam has a 14 day, 2 hour policy where if you've played the game less than 2 hours and within 14 days of the official release, you can get a refund. Of course that rule isn't set on stone. If the game is broken or unplayable (like cyberpunk 2077 on release) the developers could give the platforms the "go" to provide refunds due to backlash and any other circumstances.
@@666narutomanfan yes, you can refund it on the 10th when the game gets fully launched as long as you played for less than 2 hours. or anytime before that, u could have preordered the game 4 months ago, even tho u passed the 14 days policy u can still refund it because it was a preorder
its only an extra $10 you might as well get the deluxe and get a second mount that you may or may not use but accessing the dark arts seems like a fun time. but you could also buy the dark arts later who knows how much extra it could be
@@michaelmichaelagnew8503 The deluxe addition does not give you the dark arts it gives you access to the arena you still have to earn the spells themselves through gameplay
@@Justusuave313 so what’s the main purpose of the dark arts arena? I’m genuinely curious because I’m debating to get the deluxe edition on digital. I’m old school and wanted the disc but it’s sold out from GameStop and I had GameStop money. Thank you!
Those preorder robes have me excited for what type of things we will see in game as rewards. Animated "magical" textures on clothing just sounds like such a cool feature and I doubt they only used it for some preorder items. I'm going for the deluxe edition but I'm not excited for the early access time. Its just going to be people early testing the game and dealing with bugs (and I would rather avoid getting to invested if there are game breaking issues day 1)
I got AC Odyssee 3 days early and it ran fine. Came with a day 1 patch and everything. 3 days isn't going to make or break a game if it's ready on the 10th it's ready on the 7th
Some content creators have been given early access for a few hours to show the game's condition and it looks relatively bug free (disregarding some rendering/loading issues but that's to be expected from a demo) so I'm fairly confident in the 72 hour deluxe early access. As for the robes, the dark arts robe got me real excited - I really hope theres more animated ones cus it looks amazing
Thats why the deluxe edition is nice. Let people get the game 3 days earlier and just look at the gameplay. Then you can still play it by friday or wait a couple of months before the game is fixed.
Personally, I'm going to wait a bit before getting the game. I am extremely interested to see if a modding scene will develop around HL similar to Skyrim SE.
i just got burned by cyberpunk lmao, never preordering again wanna wait and see if this is cyberpunk 2.0 cause i will never trust influencer's thought's on a game before it gets released ever again. they get thrown threw special curated exprince's and paid a shit ton of money of course they are biased.
I think depending on how much the in-game purchases for the dark arts arena is than standard is the best option for casual fans, because it still gives you the free mount which I'm assuming will be usable as soon as creature mounts are available in game, having said that even though I have last gen still I bought the x/s deluxe as it gives you both the x/s and one versions so if I decide to get a next gen console I'll still be able to play the game, I've been holding off on a next gen because I have a PC I built and don't see much value in next gen other than the fact my friends are console gamers, and if I end up getting a next gen it will be solely to play this game earlier
gonna go for the standard edition. Its nice to see how the game plays from people that get the deluxe edition. Have a little bit of a bad experience with pre-orderds as of lately with cyberpunk and BF 2042. With a bit of luck the game is playable and i can still get the pre-order with the extra's for the 10th.
I havnt bought a full price game in a while, but this has been something I was interested in since I first heard. Ill more than likely get the deluxe pre-order, but its just insane to me, how they release games these days. Im fully expecting paid DLC's...
Please don’t preorder, I’d say wait a day or two after release or check out some reviews from some people who got a free review copy early. I don’t want you to be disappointed and 100 bucks in the hole homie
@@itsGreyHat Only $70 for deluxe, and im pretty big on freebies, so the preorder is probably gonna happen. Ive been seeing more and more gameplay, that with the actual playable hours, I think it will still be worth it.
This was a really great breakdown. Currently debating my first console purchase, this is a deciding factor for sure. Leaning towards Xbox for the Starfield exclusivity.
@@frijoleswithbeanss that’s cool to see people enjoy it, I’ve been with Microsoft since the og Xbox. Hi wise the Series one and serous x/s are just super cluttered compared to the PlayStation series
With Xbox you can get a secondary account, with a VPN add 3 years of Xbox live gold cost around 80-90€ then pay 1€ and make it Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and enjoy 3 years for Game Pass for just 85€. You can have 2 consoles and 10 PCs.
That is excellent news to hear that previous console gen like PS4 and Xbox One will have the game ready to install and boot up without inconveniences from glitches and bugs from the game and them damn updates. From my experience about these "in-game exclusive" cosmetics and rewards, I think it is not as valuable as it sounds. One reason is that I like physical or tangible exclusive products more. Moreover, the rewards that are available in-game will be enough to suffice for things such as mounts and cosmetics or it may be more to your liking than the ones offered from the advertised exclusive. In addition, I found that exclusive DLCs aren't really that unique when later on they make it available in stores for purchase. This could mean that the advertised mounts and the robes for your character might be available for purchase as additional DLC after some time the game has debuted.
It's sad they hide so much behind a pay wall, that's it's worth the price. 3 days early access, and a battle ground where you can test dark art spells without negative side effects.(And a couple of skins). Gone are the good old days where you bought the entire game for one price.
I love Harry Potter but I've been burned by so many AAA games in recent years that I can't help but go into this expecting problems and rushed unfinished features. It just seems like part of modern gaming now.
It's good to be skeptical with this game. It's by far the most ambitious game this company has made so it stands to reason that they COULD knock it out the park, but history shows that doesn't happen often. I will wait and see and if it looks worth it after launch then I can play it. If not, I won't feel burned once again.
Simple way to prevent this is waiting some weeks and then see how it comes out, and then decide if it's worth the buy or if it needs more time to iron the kinks out
@@staffy3490 Yes. It's a project that will never truly be finished. There's still so many features that they haven't had time or the resources to implement. Quidditch being the biggest example.
Dear people who may be considering picking a edition. As a programmer, If you are playing it on a computer, don't. The game is single-player and your data will be on your computer meaning it can be edited by you. Basically, even if you don't know how to do it, with in a few months people will make mods that unlock this crap. So just wait a few more months. You won't have to pay for something that's hidden in the game. modern extra content is already in the base game, they just hide it unless you payed to get a special edition. I also smell like they will have some special currency crap which, if its singleplayer, you can just give yourself anyway.
After all the disapointments that we all had with pre orders i fell reluctant to pre order this game, i really want to but... i dont know, we're receiving more and more leaks by the time passes so i'll decide until february 6th lol
That’s exactly how I feel because I preordered Callisto protocol before reviews came out and I was heavily disappointed with the game 😭 I bought it for $90! Never again preordering without watching reviews first
I’m hesitant as well after major disappointments with pre-ordering Mass Effect Andromeda and Cyberpunk 2077. I might wait a week or two before I purchase 🤷🏾♀️
So do you buy physical digital deluxe to get onyx mount for ps5. Or can just digital one? Cus on ps5 in Canada. Does not mention any mount for digital deluxe.
So, I just need help with this one thing, if we don't pre-order the standard edition, we can't fly the hippogriff ever? Is that the same if we don't buy the deluxe edition, we won't ever get to fly the thestral? If that's the case, we still get to use other things to fly in the game right? Otherwise, that would be unfair to people who are trying to save money.
The Hippogriff we still be accessible in the Standard Edition, the Onyx Hippogriff is just a cosmetic variant of the Hippogriff. The Thestral mount however is only accessible through the Dark Arts Pack. Hope that helps :)
So if I buy the deluxe edition after the game releases on PC, I won't get the Onyx Hippogriff, the Felix Felicis Potion Recipe, and the Haunted Hogsmeade Shop Quest. And since I buy it after the release, the early access is useless too. So what would I get for 80 USD? Just the dark arts cosmetics and a mount. I mean, I wasn't going to buy the game anyway, but this feels very predatory, especially the pre-order exclusives. Aside from that, from what I saw in the video, the texture quality looks terrible, not what I would expect from a modern $60-$70 game. Then again, I'm not the target audience and know very little about the game.
I was going to buy the deluxe disc edition but most of the bonus seems to be when you preorder. I have never preordered a game, i always wait for reviews and patches before buying so it looks like I'll be getting the standard edition or wait for a ultimate/game of the year edition with all the cosmetics.
I really hate the idea of of exclusive questlines in a game. You should be able to at least play the content on another system even if you have to buy it later. I know myself and I know that I will not come back to the game in a year when the PS5 exclusive is gone.
I dont care too much for the cosmetics and thestral mount and the only reason I would use the 3 days early access would be to try and record some gameplay. If yall can convince me another reason the 72 hours EA is worth it ill prob upgrade since its only ten bucks. Also Getting the dark arts arena is kinda the only thing I want from the DE
There is a big thing which wasn't mentioned. The deluxe edition on both the Xbox and Playstation includes both the X1 and series versions on the Xbox and ps4 and ps5 versions on the Playstation. This alone is a good reason to get the deluxe version since you get two achievement or trophy stacks in one.
Already pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition digitally can’t wait for my PS5 controller to flash my house colours #Ravenclaw definitely gonna platinum this 😍 Great video 😁 Happy gaming
My main problem is that since I'm going to play on the PS5, I struggle with the idea of paying $80 for a video game, if the base game were $60 and the deluxe edition were $70 I would be much more on board, but I feel like $70 is my threshold for a game
Better get used to it because all next gen games are at least $70. You have 3 choices: A) Eat the bullet and pay for the standard physically in which by time you’re finished you can return it and hopefully get some money back. B) Wait for sales. ~2 years wait C) Pirate it and get everything for free if you got a sorta good pc that has around a 1080 ti/ 5700 xt or higher. This is also a good opportunity to become a pro member at game stop with game discounts that takes $10 off your games so realistically you’re paying $60 standard for next gen games. Me, personally, I am going for the deluxe digital so I can have all the content for it. I am a trophy hunter too so that’s also another reason.
The collectors edition is so fucking laughable…a floating wand you have to plug in to make work? Seriously, anything would be worth it more. A replica of the monster book, a Hogwarts model..etc…hell, even a vibrating wand would have been fun lol
Dude I was so pumped about this game, I love single player games but in this case I feel like not having multiplayer is a terrible mistake. I wanted to play Hogwarts Legacy with friends.
Dude I know we need co op and if not quidditch at least duels it doesn’t even have to have competitive multiplayer but there’s no reason I can’t play this game with friends and there’s really retards out here gate keeping it to a single player experience because they have no friends and it HAS TO BE SINGLE PLAYER
As someone who doesn't have a ps5 yet sadly the best version is the digital deluxe edition is the best version to buy you will get everything the game has to offer and also you will have the game for your ps5. I will also buy a physical copy of the game
A 1 year exclusive on a game like this doesn't make it any less terrible... we won't be playing the game for a year and then excited to get access to the shop that PS users got at launch. A pretty shitty exclusivity deal. This kinda crap is why I am SUPER EXCITED for Microsoft to own Bethesda & Activision, Playstation deserves to get backhanded for all their exclusivity bullshit over the last 10 years. They abused it horribly and now they are going to be stomped into oblivion since Microsoft has the money to just buy every studio and lock Playstation out. No sympathy for Sony at all, they know their days are numbered and it was their own doing. Microsoft tried to play fair with them all the time and all PS cared about was more exclusive shit.
@@rezidux I don't hate them, I just have no respect or sympathy for them being so whiny about Microsoft buying studios when they have abused exclusivity for a decade. And what does my comment have anything to do with the need to buy this game? I have pre ordered 2 copies and didn't say anything negative about the game. No idea what ur on about.
also hate the ps exclusivity shit... fun quest gets locked and a potion to mark chests (not really needed tbh) but the quest to own a shop kinda neat but wont make me return for that quest maybe to make another playthrou but not sure if i would return a year later... and yeah i support microsoft in buying out sony... caus ms wont lock content from any platform like sony does... so with ms buying out we all get the same game i hope somehow that crackers can crack the game and unlock the locked dlc (i highly doubt its not in pc version its just locked so ppl just need to figure out how to unlock it) and yes i bought it but if this is made possible i will delete the legit copy and get the unlocked one
Lmao its not sonys fault that they actually take care of their fanbase. The only thing microsoft is doing for their fans right now is trying to buy up an already established all platform game, call of duty. They cant make their own brands from the ground up because theyre unimaginative and dont even try
Bro you deserve more subs I swear you put some much thought into this video explaining all the things that you know best for us I thank you for being straight forward props to you in the future Hogwarts here we come!🙌✨🪄🧙
I was able to put in my preorder for the deluxe off Bestbuy the day they went live. The preorder bonus from them specifically included a $10 store credit, which will be credited after the game ships ofc. But, seeing as i'll also be buying FF16 off bestbuy as well, its an easy pick in terms of retailers. So essentially, I'm paying the same total price as the standard XD
@@Bidwellz9 Well it is in my case. I always buy my games from Best buy or Amazon regardless, so it's a deal for me nonetheless. Not to mention, I already planned for FF16 from Best buy as well for that 2nd steel book
I’d like to see add-on’s, extra content and DLC stuff after the fact. It would be cool if you were granted access upon game completion or during milestones .. but also as a straight up reward for beating the game. better rewards should be granted on higher difficulty settings also. “Deluxe” versions are a total cash grab. If you want it just wait til they sell the discounted deluxe version in a year or so..
Its not that I have to wait for some content on a different platform. It’s more of the fact of the shops which was originally in development suppose to be out for everyone as it was a part of the game it self. Holding a cosmetic or a certain wand or mount for a year a lot of people would be okay. Its a shop that everybody should have right to at the start of the game.
Thanks to running on unreal engine 4.. PC users will have access to modding because it's an open source engine. We won't have the PS exclusive haunted hogsmeade shop quest but we will make our own. We will have custom character mods, NPC mods, gameplay mods.. You name it. Think skyrim but at Hogwarts. Playstation fanboys won't like to hear this, but you've been brainwashed. Take tlou1/2, uncharted, GoW.. Every single one of those "AAA" sony games are so extremely linear, the only reason to replay is to go back for the collectable in each level (See GoW and uncharted specifically) Sony has copied the crash bandicoot formula from the 90s on all their games.. straight path, few detours to make it seem bigger than it is. Fill the world with notes you need to read instead of dialogue and characters. If you played uncharted 1, you'll know that it took 20 YEARS to finally get the Drake brothers origin/backstory. You want to see what's ontop of that mountain? Nah invisible wall get fucked. That's why sony will release 5-6 mediocre games a year and will never achieve a true masterpiece like RDR2/BotW. They want quantity not quality, and Sony fans don't know any better. Once they make the move to PC they rarely ever go back. (Source: 25+ years of gaming, 15-20+ hours a day. You'll be hard pressed to find A game I haven't 100% or nearly 100%.)
spitting facts not gonna lie. I did have a chuckle at the sony fans are brainwashed because I do sort of believe it. You can tell who has only ever played PS games vs a cultured gamer.
@@Wibbly_Wobbly yep, just played through gow ragnarok and it's the same game with a new skin. you'll get a few hours of gameplay. hack'n'slash some mobs. then never touch it again.
Because I'm poor and don't have leisure time in my life right now to play the game, I'm planning on waiting another year or two to get a "complete" edition with all DLC at a lower price. And probably on the last-gen console I have. I imagine that for $20-40 there will be a version with all in-game content, including platform exclusives and pre-order bonuses. There usually is. If you pay for all the game's content as it's released, it's a lot more expensive. I doubt this information is useful to many people watching this video. Anyone counting the days until release would want to access the game sooner. I understand that. But if there's no urgency to play the latest game, you can get more for your money. This is important if you're on a tight budget. Just buy things a couple of years behind the times and you can live pretty well with fairly new stuff. Slightly old games, slightly old phones. Many new phones are easily available for a third or quarter of their initial price in three years. With successful games, there's often a repackaged rerelease that includes all the DLC.
Lots of fair complaints here regarding multiple editions of games. Some people may remember back when a game was released, there was one version and once it was out the game was complete because hardware back then didn't have internet connections for patch updates (SNES, Genesis, etc.). Sure, multiple editions suck, but let's frame that against the backdrop of thirty years ago where there was no DLC, there was no expansions, there was (if the game did well) a sequel that could take any random amount of time to come out. When you finished a game, typically if you wanted more, you needed to just replay the same game. There was no option for additional content unlike today. People should recognize, what we have now is a far better reality for the end-user/gamer.
I was so bummed there was a time lock on the Collectors Edition and Deluxe Editions >.< I've ordered Collector's Editions before pretty close to a release, but it didn't even dawn on me, that OF COURSE there would be a cut off, because of the actual manufacturing of certain items in the box (whereas before, it was items that could be manufactured quickly). So a bit of a bummer that I missed out, but lesson learned! I'm still enjoying the game regardless!
Im excited for the game. But without it being CO-OP or MMO style. It basically eliminates the use to buy anything else but Standard really. Delux and Collectors are bought to show off to other characters. It purely being solo makes it for your eyes only. I feel like they kinda flopped this one imo.
So if you can only see thestrals after seeings someone die does that mean that to most of the other students it’s just gonna look like I’m flying in a seated position?

My favorite part about the collectors edition is the cord coming out of the book
"clearly" the book reads its [self] like a kendal fire probably feels as cheap too
not gonna lie though a potions book that read its self would of been way cooler
This has to be one of the most hideous collector edition item I have ever seen FFS, how in the world could they come with something as silly and horrible as this lame book?
@@Thorz74 especially with a franchise with such iconic merch and imagery. Personally, I would’ve made 4 separate house-themed collectors editions with maybe a house scarf or robe set, house poster, or something pertaining to house merch. It wouldn’t be much of a risk as that stuff sells quite quickly
My favorite part is the fact you can't buy it here in New Zealand.
@@secondchance6603 that's because New Zealand knew better and protected it's citizens from being shammed on spending hundreds of dollars on a cheap magnetic gimmick 😂😂😂

Lucky lol🎉
I’m excited for this game by a mile. BUT it is upsetting that they have playstation exclusives only and nothing for others (I’m PC)!!
The exclusive is only for like 3-5 months then everyone else can do the quest
@@isabellaskye9950 Didn't he say it's available after a year? But yeah, it's not permanently out of our reach.
Good thing I'm on ps😋
@@zoopa9988 yeah my bad, I was just making the bigger point that it’s a limited exclusive questline, the only true exclusive if the ps5 outfits and it’s just one cloak for each house
@@isabellaskye9950 It still gives PS users a better start in the game for over a year which is quite annoying. They should at least give other platforms something as a way of making sure not one person is ahead of the game just because of the platform they are using.

Got a ps5 for this game with no regrets. It's the first game I ever pre ordered
PC is better
Same here, same here
@@ROCKNROLL947 don't think I care about a PC and all the hackers and trolls. Glad I got a ps5 🤣
Me too
Not the first game I pre-ordered, but this game was the tipping point that made me buy the series X
I'm not even a Harry Potter fan. But I'm so excited about this game! Makes me wanna go watch the movies just to see what I'm getting into.
same here, this game is the reason why I'm watching all the movies
You should absolutely watch the movies, but keep in mind that this game is set in an entirely different timeframe and has no character overlaps (so that its your story rather than you being part of Harry Potter's story) so it's not even essential to know those stories. Obviously there's shared family names with the original story and plenty of references but it seems fairly open to those who don't know the books/movies.
Amazing to see non-fans excited for the game though! I've loved Harry Potter for a long time and seen a fair bit of gatekeeping surrounding the game, but I hope you enjoy the stories as much as I do :)
sound like a broken record but watch the movies!!
@@kevinsantos3857 read the books, they're far better
you’ve never watched the movies? brother take some time off and get it done you won’t regret it. wish I could wipe my memory and watch it all over again.
Got the standard, it’s great that I can choose to get the Dark Arts stuff separately if I really like the game.
It's great that I get to choose what I pay actual money for
what u mean separately? is the dark arts gear obtainable through sheer playing?
@@impyr3x293 I think they mean buying it for more if they want it
@@impyr3x293 They can just buy the deluxe upgrade separately for like $20 or something.
£10 extra in UK for deluxe. Easy purchase for Deluxe. Any other edition is stupid in comparison at that price.
I was working myself up to drop $100-$120 for the collectors edition but I think I’ll buy the deluxe… a magnetic wand is cool and the kelpy robe is alright plus the mission and personal store sounded awesome but not for $300👏🏻
I wish people stopped buying more expensive versions of a game for items and skins that are already in the game. Maybe then this shit trend will die out
@@bestmaaad if I plan to spend a long time playing the game why not? Most of the time pre order stuff you can’t buy anywas
@@bestmaaad maybe
@@bestmaaad I think it really depends on what the expensive version is. I bought the Collections Edition of Titanfall for my husband, back in the day. It was ~$200 (cant remember the exact price) but it came with this MASSIVE (over a foot tall), heavy/well-made statue. That thing is still in our game room, and everyone who comes in and sees it is like "WOAH! That's cool". It really is pretty awesome.
I think if an expensive version of the game actually comes with memorabilia that's worth $100+, and that memorabilia is something you would buy for your home collection, then it's worth the money.
While I will still be picking this up, I'm not overly pleased with the idea of platform exclusive content. Exclusivity deals in and of themselves irk me greatly these days, what with the increased reliance on digital distribution, but I understand why said deals exists. I do find it reprehensible that content is being locked away from customers based on their platform of choice. Even if this is only for x amount of time.
We get it you're old and jaded.
@Pierre Slowed 🎶 The only advantage PS has over PC is the ability to play a game that looks like dogshit. I'll take my 120fps ultra quality over PS graphics anyday
well to be fair, back in the day,. all Harry potter games on all platforms were different so I see it as just the same
Agree. I’m buying on PS5 due to the controller extras, but I’m not happy even though I will get the extra content for PS5. It’s a ugly business practice.
It's cuz pc and xbox are filthy muggles and ps are pure bloods >:)
While I know a lot of people are eager to play, the smartest route is probably to just wait a few weeks. That will give time for full independent reviews to come in and for major bugs to get fixed so that your initial playthrough experience is better. Or if you really want to get the pre-order cosmetics, at least wait until the last second to order so you can get some feedback from the early players, playing non-stop the first couple days, to get an idea if it will be a buggy mess at release.
what if i don't care about if it's a buggy mess? it's hogwarts!😂
this game isnt likely to be accurately reviewed because of the controversy around it anyway
@@nicolassalathe6905 i literally feel the same way! It can be a whole bubbky pile of hogswash and i woild still play it just to fly around hogwarts. Like my favorite thing about the ps5 spiderman was finally being able to zipp around the city as spidey and it felt perfect.
So ur saying wait till others play the game to tell you if you should play it🤣🤣🤣

Who tf would need that tho lmao
I mean the amount of things to do in this game, that people with spend months on each of them:
1) Each common room, finding every nook and cranny for everything
2) The castle itself: finding all the halls, paintings, secrets, puzzles, rooms, easter eggs, and just soaking in every nook of the castle and it's grounds as well.
3) Room of Requirement: customizing your room and magical creature pasture
4) The entire open world will take months of walking and flying around just to see it all from a high level.
5) Finding all the secrets and easter eggs out there to find too (which might take you walking the entire thing)
6) Seasons which will make you want to go places multiple times
7) Playing as good then as bad to see gameplay differences
8) Classes if there's any component of you having to memorize anything to pass any tests etc.
And then you have the actual gameplay and story line to follow This will be the biggest game of the year sales wise, purchase wise, and gamer channel viewing wise no doubt.
I hope you are right. And indeed, the footage looks promising.
But AAA games in recent years... low expectations and you can only be satisfied, amazed even. High expectations and you could risk great disappointment.
I think Marvel's Spiderman will have more sales
no
Lol all that can be done in probably a month or less. Look at the games this studio has previously made...this game is for the people who wanted to make their own hogwarts journey with exploring sprinkled throughout but it’s nowhere near as detailed as any Harry Potter movie or book. The world here looks pretty empty so I wouldn’t expect too much
Yeah you're getting your hopes up way to high with this list brother. No shot it will have all that it should be a good RPG experience, not months worth of detail in each common room lmao
The only thing that makes me wanna get the deluxe edition is the extra battle arena; cosmetics and 3 day early access I really don't much care for. But I'm not really in a rush so I may just get the standard and buy the extra arena later.
Yeah that’s what I will do, preorder the pc version probably later today so I get the onyx hippogriff Mount

@@mandrews6282 Agree, the last games this team worked on were Cars 3 and a now failed and defunct Wizards Unite mobile game.
The problem is that a large portion of this games target audience aren't gamers, they're Harry Potter fans who are buying consoles for the first time just to play this. Even if the game is unfinished, below par or buggy, these kinds of players will accept it and play it regardless; much like the Pokémon fanbase.

FINALLY KNOW THE AUSTRALIAN PRICING THANK GOD YOUR IN AUSTRALIA
I wonder if Pre-Ordering the standard edition will still be available on Steam on the 7th, 8th, and 9th of Feb. I have had too many bad experiences with the release of highly hyped pre-orders. Anyone remember Cyberpunk 2077 or Battlefield 2042? My plan is waiting to hear the feedback from players that pre-ordered the deluxe edition when they get their 3 day head start.
The preorder ends only on the 10th so go watch them reviews
you know how you get a few hours before your refund expires on games? I wonder how thatd work if we pre-order... can I pre-order, see gameplay and reviews, then just refund if I dont like what I see?
@@666narutomanfan I think that would be dependant on the refund policy of each platform. For example, Steam has a 14 day, 2 hour policy where if you've played the game less than 2 hours and within 14 days of the official release, you can get a refund. Of course that rule isn't set on stone. If the game is broken or unplayable (like cyberpunk 2077 on release) the developers could give the platforms the "go" to provide refunds due to backlash and any other circumstances.
really it is more for the mounts and the art for 10 more dollars
@@666narutomanfan yes, you can refund it on the 10th when the game gets fully launched as long as you played for less than 2 hours. or anytime before that, u could have preordered the game 4 months ago, even tho u passed the 14 days policy u can still refund it because it was a preorder
its only an extra $10 you might as well get the deluxe and get a second mount that you may or may not use but accessing the dark arts seems like a fun time. but you could also buy the dark arts later who knows how much extra it could be
I hear you can learn them in the game once you discover them. Probably the better more immersive way to obtain them.
@@michaelmichaelagnew8503 The deluxe addition does not give you the dark arts it gives you access to the arena you still have to earn the spells themselves through gameplay
@@Justusuave313 so what’s the main purpose of the dark arts arena? I’m genuinely curious because I’m debating to get the deluxe edition on digital. I’m old school and wanted the disc but it’s sold out from GameStop and I had GameStop money. Thank you!
Those preorder robes have me excited for what type of things we will see in game as rewards. Animated "magical" textures on clothing just sounds like such a cool feature and I doubt they only used it for some preorder items. I'm going for the deluxe edition but I'm not excited for the early access time. Its just going to be people early testing the game and dealing with bugs (and I would rather avoid getting to invested if there are game breaking issues day 1)
I got AC Odyssee 3 days early and it ran fine. Came with a day 1 patch and everything. 3 days isn't going to make or break a game if it's ready on the 10th it's ready on the 7th
Some content creators have been given early access for a few hours to show the game's condition and it looks relatively bug free (disregarding some rendering/loading issues but that's to be expected from a demo) so I'm fairly confident in the 72 hour deluxe early access. As for the robes, the dark arts robe got me real excited - I really hope theres more animated ones cus it looks amazing
I know literally nothing about Harry Potter but this game looks SICK
I don't feel comfortable pre ordering this game until I see real world gameplay from players
Same. Modern gaming industry has lost all trust from me.
I preordered and it I could I would preorder a hundred more copies to spite the J.K Rowling haters.
Nobody should preorder games, even if they like the developer. The practice has become a blatant cash grab across the board. I salute you.
Thats why the deluxe edition is nice. Let people get the game 3 days earlier and just look at the gameplay. Then you can still play it by friday or wait a couple of months before the game is fixed.

I think depending on how much the in-game purchases for the dark arts arena is than standard is the best option for casual fans, because it still gives you the free mount which I'm assuming will be usable as soon as creature mounts are available in game, having said that even though I have last gen still I bought the x/s deluxe as it gives you both the x/s and one versions so if I decide to get a next gen console I'll still be able to play the game, I've been holding off on a next gen because I have a PC I built and don't see much value in next gen other than the fact my friends are console gamers, and if I end up getting a next gen it will be solely to play this game earlier

Me too
That is excellent news to hear that previous console gen like PS4 and Xbox One will have the game ready to install and boot up without inconveniences from glitches and bugs from the game and them damn updates. From my experience about these "in-game exclusive" cosmetics and rewards, I think it is not as valuable as it sounds. One reason is that I like physical or tangible exclusive products more. Moreover, the rewards that are available in-game will be enough to suffice for things such as mounts and cosmetics or it may be more to your liking than the ones offered from the advertised exclusive. In addition, I found that exclusive DLCs aren't really that unique when later on they make it available in stores for purchase. This could mean that the advertised mounts and the robes for your character might be available for purchase as additional DLC after some time the game has debuted.
Being an exclusively PC gamer, I will buy the game next year when the game will be complete for the PC. It will also be much cheaper
100% gonna get the deluxe edition now
It's sad they hide so much behind a pay wall, that's it's worth the price. 3 days early access, and a battle ground where you can test dark art spells without negative side effects.(And a couple of skins).
Gone are the good old days where you bought the entire game for one price.
very smart man for doing a topic of this, 700 subs, 450k views
I love Harry Potter but I've been burned by so many AAA games in recent years that I can't help but go into this expecting problems and rushed unfinished features. It just seems like part of modern gaming now.
It's good to be skeptical with this game. It's by far the most ambitious game this company has made so it stands to reason that they COULD knock it out the park, but history shows that doesn't happen often. I will wait and see and if it looks worth it after launch then I can play it. If not, I won't feel burned once again.
Simple way to prevent this is waiting some weeks and then see how it comes out, and then decide if it's worth the buy or if it needs more time to iron the kinks out
Rushed? It was first supposed to come out in 2020....
@@staffy3490 Yes. It's a project that will never truly be finished. There's still so many features that they haven't had time or the resources to implement. Quidditch being the biggest example.
Dear people who may be considering picking a edition.
As a programmer, If you are playing it on a computer, don't. The game is single-player and your data will be on your computer meaning it can be edited by you. Basically, even if you don't know how to do it, with in a few months people will make mods that unlock this crap.
So just wait a few more months. You won't have to pay for something that's hidden in the game. modern extra content is already in the base game, they just hide it unless you payed to get a special edition. I also smell like they will have some special currency crap which, if its singleplayer, you can just give yourself anyway.

Exclusive quests for different platforms are such red flags imo
So, I just need help with this one thing, if we don't pre-order the standard edition, we can't fly the hippogriff ever? Is that the same if we don't buy the deluxe edition, we won't ever get to fly the thestral? If that's the case, we still get to use other things to fly in the game right? Otherwise, that would be unfair to people who are trying to save money.
The Hippogriff we still be accessible in the Standard Edition, the Onyx Hippogriff is just a cosmetic variant of the Hippogriff. The Thestral mount however is only accessible through the Dark Arts Pack. Hope that helps :)
@@beaufaplays ah that's good to know, it's smart on their end to make it a little confusing so it makes people feel the need to pre-order.
I got the deluxe just for the 3 days early access
So if I buy the deluxe edition after the game releases on PC, I won't get the Onyx Hippogriff, the Felix Felicis Potion Recipe, and the Haunted Hogsmeade Shop Quest. And since I buy it after the release, the early access is useless too. So what would I get for 80 USD? Just the dark arts cosmetics and a mount. I mean, I wasn't going to buy the game anyway, but this feels very predatory, especially the pre-order exclusives. Aside from that, from what I saw in the video, the texture quality looks terrible, not what I would expect from a modern $60-$70 game. Then again, I'm not the target audience and know very little about the game.
I was going to buy the deluxe disc edition but most of the bonus seems to be when you preorder. I have never preordered a game, i always wait for reviews and patches before buying so it looks like I'll be getting the standard edition or wait for a ultimate/game of the year edition with all the cosmetics.
I really hate the idea of of exclusive questlines in a game. You should be able to at least play the content on another system even if you have to buy it later. I know myself and I know that I will not come back to the game in a year when the PS5 exclusive is gone.
I dont care too much for the cosmetics and thestral mount and the only reason I would use the 3 days early access would be to try and record some gameplay. If yall can convince me another reason the 72 hours EA is worth it ill prob upgrade since its only ten bucks. Also Getting the dark arts arena is kinda the only thing I want from the DE
It's only 10 dollars to play 3 days early. Shut up and take my money.

There is a big thing which wasn't mentioned. The deluxe edition on both the Xbox and Playstation includes both the X1 and series versions on the Xbox and ps4 and ps5 versions on the Playstation. This alone is a good reason to get the deluxe version since you get two achievement or trophy stacks in one.

Remember, No Preorders
The next gen versions being more expensive is wild to me. I might wait to get the deluxe on ps4 even though i have a x/s
Normal , next-gen games are more costly to develop.
My main problem is that since I'm going to play on the PS5, I struggle with the idea of paying $80 for a video game, if the base game were $60 and the deluxe edition were $70 I would be much more on board, but I feel like $70 is my threshold for a game
Better get used to it because all next gen games are at least $70. You have 3 choices:
A) Eat the bullet and pay for the standard physically in which by time you’re finished you can return it and hopefully get some money back.
B) Wait for sales. ~2 years wait
C) Pirate it and get everything for free if you got a sorta good pc that has around a 1080 ti/ 5700 xt or higher.
This is also a good opportunity to become a pro member at game stop with game discounts that takes $10 off your games so realistically you’re paying $60 standard for next gen games.
Me, personally, I am going for the deluxe digital so I can have all the content for it. I am a trophy hunter too so that’s also another reason.
Back in my days, there were no "editions" people could only buy one edition which contained everything
Good to know buddy. But we ain’t in Stone Age 😂😂😂 luckily we can choose what edition we want to buy 😊 so deal with it 😂
The collectors edition is so fucking laughable…a floating wand you have to plug in to make work? Seriously, anything would be worth it more. A replica of the monster book, a Hogwarts model..etc…hell, even a vibrating wand would have been fun lol
Dude I was so pumped about this game, I love single player games but in this case I feel like not having multiplayer is a terrible mistake. I wanted to play Hogwarts Legacy with friends.
Dude I know we need co op and if not quidditch at least duels it doesn’t even have to have competitive multiplayer but there’s no reason I can’t play this game with friends and there’s really retards out here gate keeping it to a single player experience because they have no friends and it HAS TO BE SINGLE PLAYER
Having all that though would've took away from the story and world. Also wouldve made the game developing alot longer
As someone who doesn't have a ps5 yet sadly the best version is the digital deluxe edition is the best version to buy you will get everything the game has to offer and also you will have the game for your ps5. I will also buy a physical copy of the game
A 1 year exclusive on a game like this doesn't make it any less terrible... we won't be playing the game for a year and then excited to get access to the shop that PS users got at launch. A pretty shitty exclusivity deal.
This kinda crap is why I am SUPER EXCITED for Microsoft to own Bethesda & Activision, Playstation deserves to get backhanded for all their exclusivity bullshit over the last 10 years. They abused it horribly and now they are going to be stomped into oblivion since Microsoft has the money to just buy every studio and lock Playstation out. No sympathy for Sony at all, they know their days are numbered and it was their own doing. Microsoft tried to play fair with them all the time and all PS cared about was more exclusive shit.
Long winded way of saying you hate Playstation. I'm buying into this regardless. Comments like this just fuel the need to buy this game.
@@rezidux I don't hate them, I just have no respect or sympathy for them being so whiny about Microsoft buying studios when they have abused exclusivity for a decade.
And what does my comment have anything to do with the need to buy this game? I have pre ordered 2 copies and didn't say anything negative about the game. No idea what ur on about.
also hate the ps exclusivity shit... fun quest gets locked and a potion to mark chests (not really needed tbh) but the quest to own a shop kinda neat but wont make me return for that quest maybe to make another playthrou but not sure if i would return a year later... and yeah i support microsoft in buying out sony... caus ms wont lock content from any platform like sony does... so with ms buying out we all get the same game i hope somehow that crackers can crack the game and unlock the locked dlc (i highly doubt its not in pc version its just locked so ppl just need to figure out how to unlock it) and yes i bought it but if this is made possible i will delete the legit copy and get the unlocked one
i hear you but i think exclusivity should be banned
nintendo is their own story but ps2 and xbox need to cut the shit.
Lmao its not sonys fault that they actually take care of their fanbase. The only thing microsoft is doing for their fans right now is trying to buy up an already established all platform game, call of duty. They cant make their own brands from the ground up because theyre unimaginative and dont even try
it's not only gonna be on playstation it's on all major platforms.
Hate platform locked bonuses 😒
Yeah, I'd say "fuck sony" however all platforms have done this type of exclusivity crap forever
Bro you deserve more subs I swear you put some much thought into this video explaining all the things that you know best for us I thank you for being straight forward props to you in the future Hogwarts here we come!🙌✨🪄🧙
it always sucks when features are platform exclusive OR price locked in a more expensive version of the game.
I was able to put in my preorder for the deluxe off Bestbuy the day they went live. The preorder bonus from them specifically included a $10 store credit, which will be credited after the game ships ofc. But, seeing as i'll also be buying FF16 off bestbuy as well, its an easy pick in terms of retailers. So essentially, I'm paying the same total price as the standard XD
you think you are getting a deal lol the store is the one getting the deal. the roped you for 2 sales
@@Bidwellz9 Well it is in my case. I always buy my games from Best buy or Amazon regardless, so it's a deal for me nonetheless. Not to mention, I already planned for FF16 from Best buy as well for that 2nd steel book
Side note; if you don’t have a play station the haunted hogsmeade quest line will be available to all other platforms one year after launch.
I’d like to see add-on’s, extra content and DLC stuff after the fact. It would be cool if you were granted access upon game completion or during milestones .. but also as a straight up reward for beating the game. better rewards should be granted on higher difficulty settings also. “Deluxe” versions are a total cash grab. If you want it just wait til they sell the discounted deluxe version in a year or so..
Its not that I have to wait for some content on a different platform. It’s more of the fact of the shops which was originally in development suppose to be out for everyone as it was a part of the game it self. Holding a cosmetic or a certain wand or mount for a year a lot of people would be okay. Its a shop that everybody should have right to at the start of the game.
if they sold an anti-tranny edition for 200 dollars I'd buy it.
Too expensive, I'll wait for the Summer sale when it gets 41% off
Honestly, 10 more dollars to play it 3 days early is super worth it
nah i already see people preparing cheat or exploit for the pc version + pc players will get mods eventually
My mentality with this game was "take my money and dont question it" so i bought deluxe
Thanks to running on unreal engine 4.. PC users will have access to modding because it's an open source engine. We won't have the PS exclusive haunted hogsmeade shop quest but we will make our own. We will have custom character mods, NPC mods, gameplay mods.. You name it. Think skyrim but at Hogwarts. Playstation fanboys won't like to hear this, but you've been brainwashed. Take tlou1/2, uncharted, GoW.. Every single one of those "AAA" sony games are so extremely linear, the only reason to replay is to go back for the collectable in each level (See GoW and uncharted specifically) Sony has copied the crash bandicoot formula from the 90s on all their games.. straight path, few detours to make it seem bigger than it is. Fill the world with notes you need to read instead of dialogue and characters. If you played uncharted 1, you'll know that it took 20 YEARS to finally get the Drake brothers origin/backstory. You want to see what's ontop of that mountain? Nah invisible wall get fucked. That's why sony will release 5-6 mediocre games a year and will never achieve a true masterpiece like RDR2/BotW. They want quantity not quality, and Sony fans don't know any better. Once they make the move to PC they rarely ever go back. (Source: 25+ years of gaming, 15-20+ hours a day. You'll be hard pressed to find A game I haven't 100% or nearly 100%.)
spitting facts not gonna lie. I did have a chuckle at the sony fans are brainwashed because I do sort of believe it. You can tell who has only ever played PS games vs a cultured gamer.
@@Wibbly_Wobbly yep, just played through gow ragnarok and it's the same game with a new skin. you'll get a few hours of gameplay. hack'n'slash some mobs. then never touch it again.
You got my like and sub with that aussie comment, although you shoulda said it was a straight raught
3 hours left. Damn i'm so hyped up
I got the digital deluxe, the dark arts cosmetic looks sick.
Same
Because I'm poor and don't have leisure time in my life right now to play the game, I'm planning on waiting another year or two to get a "complete" edition with all DLC at a lower price. And probably on the last-gen console I have. I imagine that for $20-40 there will be a version with all in-game content, including platform exclusives and pre-order bonuses. There usually is. If you pay for all the game's content as it's released, it's a lot more expensive.
I doubt this information is useful to many people watching this video. Anyone counting the days until release would want to access the game sooner. I understand that. But if there's no urgency to play the latest game, you can get more for your money. This is important if you're on a tight budget. Just buy things a couple of years behind the times and you can live pretty well with fairly new stuff. Slightly old games, slightly old phones. Many new phones are easily available for a third or quarter of their initial price in three years. With successful games, there's often a repackaged rerelease that includes all the DLC.
Thank you for the info. This was a great video!
I pre-order the game on switch back in February and I'm having 2nd thoughts on getting the game.
booked a week off work for this, haven't been excited about a game in years.
Pre ordered on ps5 like a month ago! Can’t wait for the bonuses
Any recommendations on which platform is the best to play this game? Pc or ps4
Sony getting on my nerves with these exclusives
Cool, I love getting exclusive skins for a single player game.
If you watched the movies or read the books you definitely should get this game
I just went and bought the deluxe edition for the Xbox series X this is really my first deluxe edition I ever bought.
Lots of fair complaints here regarding multiple editions of games. Some people may remember back when a game was released, there was one version and once it was out the game was complete because hardware back then didn't have internet connections for patch updates (SNES, Genesis, etc.). Sure, multiple editions suck, but let's frame that against the backdrop of thirty years ago where there was no DLC, there was no expansions, there was (if the game did well) a sequel that could take any random amount of time to come out. When you finished a game, typically if you wanted more, you needed to just replay the same game. There was no option for additional content unlike today. People should recognize, what we have now is a far better reality for the end-user/gamer.
Thanks for telling me in your photo for the video
I was so bummed there was a time lock on the Collectors Edition and Deluxe Editions >.<
I've ordered Collector's Editions before pretty close to a release, but it didn't even dawn on me, that OF COURSE there would be a cut off, because of the actual manufacturing of certain items in the box (whereas before, it was items that could be manufactured quickly).
So a bit of a bummer that I missed out, but lesson learned! I'm still enjoying the game regardless!
Im excited for the game. But without it being CO-OP or MMO style. It basically eliminates the use to buy anything else but Standard really. Delux and Collectors are bought to show off to other characters. It purely being solo makes it for your eyes only. I feel like they kinda flopped this one imo.
So if you can only see thestrals after seeings someone die does that mean that to most of the other students it’s just gonna look like I’m flying in a seated position?
I want the edition where I can use the unforgivable curses on everyone who tells me I shouldn't buy this.
Struggling to pick between the PC and Ps5 version. I think I’m gonna PC for future Mod capabilities
My birthday is February 6th! This is such a great birthday treat
