@@leonwalker6934 I’d say the majority of us aren’t very difficult to please😂 if hogwarts is made well and I can go to hogsmeade and walk around the shops…I’m already satisfied
@@leonwalker6934 Very fair, but what I can see from the passion of the creators (both behind the scenes and in what they present) there's just a level of heart put into this that makes me already appreciate what we've seen. The castle looks amazing, the score is amazing. Even if all I'll do is wander the castle for hours I'll be satisfied.
Honestly the fan base from what ive seen has been supportive too, i honestly wouldnt mind if it was pushed back again. I dont really have huge expectations either, im not expecting a simulator or a modern skyrim. I just want to be able to explore hogwarts and fly on a broom.
For anybody who wants a breakdown of the individual pieces featured in this overture: 0:04 Ancient Magic Coda 0:17 Hogwarts Leitmotif _(not on the official soundtrack as a separate piece)_ 1:02 Potting Mandrakes 1:20 ??? 1:31 An Intense Aversion 1:46 Potions Class 1:56 Dance of the Mooncalves 2:15 Everybody Grab a Broom 2:57 Ranrok’s Rage 3:32 Hogwarts Legacy Title Theme _(not on the official soundtrack as a separate piece)_ 4:14 You’ve Made Your Choice 4:45 ???
This is simply phenomenal. Nostalgic, but fresh all at the same time. Music of the wizarding world has always been one of the key components that gives it that whimsical, yet sometimes haunting and mysterious feel. It's just wonderful to see that tradition continue with Hogwarts Legacy 😊
Can we just take a moment and give the composer a huge compliment? I mean, this is so good, it’s magic in its own way already. Creating a soundtrack that sounds like an existing soundtrack but with the same quality instead of it feeling like a ‘no copyright sound’ version which is normally the case with those things is really hard to pull off but they absolutely nailed it here, it’s incredible!
Love this as it has some chords and crescendos as John Williams pieces but also something very much its own. they definently feel like they are in the same universe. well done to everyone
As a music composer and an orchestrator myself, I must confess: I LOVE THIS ONE!!! Just amazing! All the hints to the original HP music are just marvelous!
The fact a lot of the pieces had the same vibes as the different movies is amazing, each movies soundtrack felt unique to me and so do different pieces in this, im so excited for this games soundtrack
This is pretty impressive, i never seen a game showcase their music score in such a way, this could be a milestone for future game companies to take music more publicly for the audience like this, awesome! 🔥
god of war has an amazing "making of" where they also show all the work it took to create the music. I am so fascinated about the work that goes into videogames
I like the Skyrim 10 year anniversary concert. It's not exactly the same as this, but I loved getting to hear a real symphonic version of some of the best tracks from the game. Where I live it's a popular concept to screen movies in big concert halls and have a live orchestra play the score in sinc with the film. But since that's not possible for games, it's nice to have a concert dedicated to the score of one game.
I love how in 0:29 it sounds like it's about to be Hedwig's theme but it changes the direction but still keeps the mystical-magical-mystery feel to it, it sounds phenomenal I really hope this game will live up to his expectations, we waited far too long for a game that captures that Harry-Potter essence and so far, the gameplay, the graphics and now the music is fantastic. I can't wait for this game to come out
I wish they went for a bigger orchestra instead of just 54 players, but this piece captures the essence of John Williams’ Potter scoring incredibly well. Really looking forward to this one
I gotta give props to orchestras. They work their butts off, perfecting their talents, and putting together masterpieces that completely change the feel of a movie/ game. It's something that, while listening, I never really think much of because I'm too entranced by the scenery and the life that the music brings. But at the same time, I feel like I'd be so bored watching them in person. I just don't know how to appreciate it like that. But a big thank you nonetheless for what they do.
Omg, this is fantastic. Love the subtle hints to John Williams’ original score. Music can really make a game come alive, and this makes me even more excited to play. Bravo!🎉
They say Music sooths the savage beast, this would make that dragon turn loving as a kitten. Brilliant, thank you, it further verifies my perches. Money well spent.
This is put together so cleverly. There are hints of most of the movies in every part of this piece, along with notes of wonder, magic, happiness, playfulness, seriousness, darkness, sadness and triumph. It's a 5 minute roller-coaster. The marketing campaign for this game has been outstanding and I just hope the gameplay lives up to everything I've seen so far. Excited is an understatement at this point.
That was amazing! Love how you replicated the feel of John Willian's themes for first three HP movies, but I also heard slight notes of Order of the Phoenix music, which I like. Great job!
I love how you have taken John William's score and have changed up to mix in with nostalgia from the HP films while putting your own twist to it. Looking forward to the soundtrack as I play the game.
Fresh nostalgia, orchestrated with care and epicness, full of known and loved motifs but also unexpected turns. This is fantastic and exactly what I wanted, thank you
4:14 hit me in the feels Holy crap that was amazing 👏🏼🔥 Reminded me so much of the last three movies. Man all of these melodies were so good and you can tell every Potter OST they take inspiration from.
For me it reminds me of "I'm So Sorry" from the Star Wars prequels, including the story behind it: Sebastian wants to save his sister Anne no matter what and is willing to go dark side, while Anakin wants to save Padmé, and he goes full dark side.
One of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen. I can't wait to listen to the Hogwarts Legacy music on repeat. Thank you for this gift to the community.
I love it and I'm only 44 seconds in, I can already hear where they blended the original theme into it and it sounds fantastic. I also appreciate the flute being the center point as a flautist myself.
Awesome! Love it! Can't wait to play the game! I always thought that music is very important part of media - a movie or a game. You did a great job! Thank you!
This was beautifully directed and produced! The castle and Hogsmeade look unbelievable. Music is such an important part of a video game even if people don’t realize it or notice it, I can’t wait to play this game! 😁🥰💛
@@CLyons6 Exactly ! I remember during the BTS from the State of Play that someone said "Sometimes, I could be going on a quest and finding myself wandering the castle for half an hour" or something like that, and I'm so excited to having these moments !
While Downloading and Upgrading my PS5 this music was in the background and was a delight to listen to while waiting hours on end for it to fully download....
Associating the unwritten with this game at every turn is a clever way to keep the true fans happy that you're going to be making the bulk of your money off of and be inclusive to the weirdos on Twitter who want nothing but to destroy lives.
Those people aren't even buying the games. This game will be one of the best selling despite the degenerate minority. I really don't know what media companies worry about people who have little to no impact on their sales.
Let us hope that this game has also captured the dark, scary, sad and depressing vibes as well, like from the movies _(particularly from Half-Blood Prince--which I'm currently watching. Deathly Hallows Part 1 is next),_ rather than only having the happy, amazing fantasy vibes of wonder and mystery. This game needs sadness and despair, like the films.
😍 by MERLIN'S BEARD its perfect! So perfect I dare say one drop would kill us all. - Slughorn Marvelous how they incorporated all the vibes and some notes from the original soundtrack, but it's something new and kinda like James Newton Howard "Fantastic beasts" style
This is magically resounding! Im getting mystery, wander, silliness, cinematic and progression. It perfectly matches from the music of the movies. Love this suite!
The music, the game's visuals... it all just clicks, creating a harmonious whole... and that in and of itself is quite an achievement when taking a well-known and -loved IP and putting your own spin on it. Well done, devs and composers and musicians!
I feel like this game will be the next "Skyrim" of RPGs, of the 2020s. Inducted into the video games hall of fame amongst the best fantasy RPGs of all time. It is insane how much work went into the game, how many little details there are, the adventure and spark of the wizarding world.
This is awesome!!!! Forgot how much I really love this series. I remember BURNING through the first book. Then as the movies came out I would go to the drive in down the street from us and sit in my car reading whichever book coincided with the movie that was premiering.
I watched the first Harry Potter movie with a live orchestra in a pretty newly built concert hall in my city a few years ago. Such a good experience and makes you appreciate the music so much more.
Oh, I love this! Some nudged to the Films, which makes it recognizable, but with it's own flair. I'm so excited to hear all the beautiful music in the game!💚💚 Now I really want a Hogwarts Choir in the game, just to be able to sit there and listen to them!
Music is one of the best aspects of the Harry Potter films. It sounds like it will be for Hogwarts Legacy, too!
😋
I’m hoping they’ll release the score/soundtrack on iTunes
I love the music, it will be great in the game. I am looking forward to the music for each houses as well!
you can feel the magic in the music!
as always, the latest & greatest merlin theorist knows best!!😎
This game is truly going to be a love letter to the franchise.
yeaah!! I cannot wait. I feel like a child again who is discovering this the first time all over again. It's so magical!

Yeah Amazing !
I’m glad you picked up that too!!
Ikr! From all the music really
i love that the conductor in the shot at 3:20 looks like he's actually casting a spell

@@fcsdps6593 good point, i guess being something as specific as Harry Potter being beloved by all, not just gamers, is a major reason for this
god of war has an amazing "making of" where they also show all the work it took to create the music. I am so fascinated about the work that goes into videogames
Search on RUclips, "Mafia Definitive Edition's Opening Score". It's also one of the greatest games with Iconic score.

I love so much this part: 2:56
And this: 3:31
3:31 is the best part
Sounds like music that would be in the films. So close to release now ! My most anticipated game of my entire life. Really can’t wait !
Fresh nostalgia, orchestrated with care and epicness, full of known and loved motifs but also unexpected turns. This is fantastic and exactly what I wanted, thank you
3:45 legit moved me to tears with nostalgia.
i dont know why but on the 4:16 reminds me of the music score of "the revenant"
What a beautiful score. So magical. I am obsessed with the HP scores and this perfectly captures the whimsy that is the Wizarding World!
