I’m sad Howard’s legacy sold so well.

Also Cyberpunk sold better than I expected given the launch.

    i’m wondering if the boycott had adverse effects and promoted the game in more gamer-centric spaces that otherwise wouldn’t have cared that much

    obviously it’s a harry potter game, it was always gonna sell well. but 2nd best selling game of the last 5 years??? ouch

    To be fair, Hogwarts Legacy is a very good game, I started playing yesterday and the atmosphere of the movies is perfectly captured! I did expect a cash grab, but I was totally wrong.

    As someone who has beaten the game. The cash grab part is just after your first day and the “open world” starts up.

    It’s not a bad game, but it gets pretty bland and generic once the main loop of ditching school starts.

    For now there's nothing of the sort, but I'm only a few hours in. Could it be too good to be true...?

    Well, let's see. It is a AAA game after all...

    Edit: No, the game really is fun. 20 hours in, and I must say even if it were only exploring Hogwarts it would be quite worth my time. The music and atmosphere are really neat.

    Edit2: I can't believe it's a AAA title. There is no ingame shop, everything is obtainable just by playing. The world is beautiful and full of interesting stuff to find. And best of all: it's fun! The cash grab part is just a lie. If you have an agenda, use arguments, not lies.
