I’m literally so, so sad. As a long time Harry Potter lover, this game was a dream come true for me. It wasn’t perfect and I spent for money than I should, but I still loved it. Put so much effort in. Met so many cool people. I’m gutted
This game was probably the best Harry Potter game they've ever made for people who wanted to have a real Wizarding experience with other players. But with the greed and the insane microstransactions they totally destroyed the game and now we're at the end... I am just disgusted by Warner Bros and on how they choose to ignore the community because if they would have listened to the community the game would do really well... but oh well it's sad to see it end like this :/
@@WizardGreene They're still continuing the game in Asia, in English, so we might still get videos from Asian people in English, with some luck, so we get to see how the story goes through year 5, 6 and 7. Still - I don't know if the voice cast will be partaking in that, or if we're stuck with indistinct placeholder hums and sighs/groans after that. Hope not.
shouldn’t be able to shut down a game you spent money on. sad i just got back into the game then found out it’s done.. very good game. sad to see it gone
3 weeks ago I finally managed to get level 18 on every card in my deck that you created in one of your streams (besides mythical Hermione(lvl15)). I was very disappointed seeing this announcement.. Unless characters are move to Netease, I am done with any phone game forever.. Thank you for uploading content of MA, it was great while it lasted.
Let's be honest, no reasonable support since worldwide release. Again and again, decisions were made (Ambassador etc.) that could not be understood. HP is such a big, strong brand that a game failing simply can't happen. There was always only pay 2 win! Always just new furniture and new clothes. That makes no sense at all! A game like this lives from so much more! It was foreseeable that the game would die because there was simply no love put into it, only the idea of making money...
Yea sadly it felt like from the beginning on they barely invest in this game, barely any ads, not listening to the community, not listening to their content creators, not even cooperating with their content creators (ambassadors) to do giveaways for the community and so on. It was pretty clear for most of the people that they were just here to take money from the people and that they were not willing at all to make some small things for the community and that's really sad because this game had so much potential..
As i know, it’s how Netease work to make some money. Just like the other game it’s developt. Very” differents with Tencent who care for their games community 😢
You are thinking of the Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mysteries, with bottom of the barrel stories and 2/3 of all written dialogue being copy-pasted from the Harry Potter WIKI to the point where I recognized whole sentences that I myself wrote. The creative teams of Magic Awakened; the script writers and the voice actors, do put in a solid effort. The problem lies with the money-minded management.
I definitely miss your HPMA vids, so it's great to hear from you! It's really frustrating to see how things were ran into the ground (as usual) after such a short amount of time. I had been waiting on this game for years also. But I probably will pick up the Netease version from scratch as a super casual player bc the idea of restarting it all is just so daunting :(
Thanks for your kind words! I am so glad that I got this insane support from this beautiful community, it is honestly undescribable how grateful I am to have been a part of this amazing adventure with all of you! I will always have the thoughts in my mind what could have been if this game was handled by a professional company... imagine the possibilities with the game ... such a shame that Warner Bros didn't care at all about the game..
I love this game, but the thing I'm really upset about is they just released a new card and new echos like 4 days ago?!? I spent $150 to get multiple copies just for them to announce a shutdown; already issued to try and get a refund, though I doubt I will
You're the best, Greene. Thank you for always speaking out for us, since the start. I agree with you in that HPMA had one of the best gaming communities I've ever interacted with. Wishing you the very best. Your intuitions about the game were correct from the get go. What a disaster WB Games is. My group of friends and I are never purchasing anything associated with their name ever again, and we will spread the word. They destroy everything they touch; so rotten and inept.
I just hope that Netease can now handle the situation better with the remaining servers. I personally will not start again from scratch but I know that some people will and I know that Netease is a better publisher so let's see how the game will perform now that Warner bros is not in the boat anymore
I’m soooo so sad by this…I haven’t gotten into a game/world like this in years. Magic Awakened was my home away from reality and got me through a LOT of rough days and idk….. I won’t be changing servers or using vpn or anything like that because it was just a lot of effort, time, and money invested to just start over now. I’ll go down with the ship and give my character the farewell she deserves. 💔
I love this game, I’ve played every day since it was released in America. I’ve gotten my Spellbook level to 116 so I’ve put a lot of time and money into this game. Shame on WB for doing this and to receive this news so suddenly! I did end up making a new account on the Netease version. It really sucks that I lost everything that I’ve worked hard for and bought and have to start completely over though. 😢
I reported all my purchases with this game as fraudulent since a refund is not available. Do to the fact they made everything we bought “free content” witch is a lie, since every micro transaction is not free and payed for.
Thank you so much Greene! You were amazing. However, I believe people should not spend too much money on mobile game, this can always happen. The way WB shut down everything was so disrespectful towards all the players that spent not only money, but also time. At least tell it per time, do not make them spend money until the last minute. Thanks for warning us long time ago. I shut down my accounts on WB 6 months ago and I am playing on NE. I think also NE is a bit p2w, and gatcha in gatcha, and they made game fail in the past (Rangers of Oblivion). So the lesson is 'never invest too much money on a mobile game'. Also, these companies should be made accountable for this, I know some good content creators like Katura or Fridus who spent time to make guides for ys, investing, opening wheels, etc. This is not the way you threat players that put an effort in your game. Thanks a lot for your work!
I literally talk about you to one of my friends the way WB treated you. Man u we’re always right huge respect, i wish i listened what u says and stop wasting my time and money
First month or 2 months I kept getting scared I'd miss content and threw money at it. Was leading a club or what ever gold platinum dealing. But ever day/week it begged me to toss money at it. And I had to walk away because it kept shaking down my wallet. I was willing to give it time and money. But not all my money
One of the best mobile games ever created got so hard destroyed by so many bad decisions. This game had even E sports Potential. I hate WB so much for that. P2W should have been never a thing in this game.
They didn't invest on advertising because they had this planned since the beginning. Take has much money form other servers and then shut down the game
Oh I was waiting for your video since you left the game I was wondering if you would be uploading about the wb scandal XD Glad to see you talk about hpma your decks were exceptional!
i watched a video and downloaded the netease version:) I didnt get way to far into the game so i am fine starting over. a bit dissapointed is all. also, sign petitions to get the game back, the ones ive signed already have over 2k signatures

I first heard of this game on a whim, but that was when it was only playable in Asia. I didn’t even know of its global release until i happened to see it while looking at Hogwarts Mystery. Loved the concept, loved the story, but the pay wall for cosmetics was just awful. Sad to see it go nonetheless
Hi Greene, Let me help you on transferring your HPMA WB account to NetEase account with some minor changes on the account. (Since you are a content creator, and this recent update might help you.) 1. Open settings in your WB account and select Misc. (At the end) 2. You will have a character code option. Copy that. 3. Go to your NetEase version and paste the code. Your old account will merge to the NetEase version. (Popularity and friend list are currently not transferrable) Since HPMA has a lot of content yet to be launched on Global NE version (inheriting from Chinese version). The game still has lot of potential and shelf life to stay on the market. Hope this information helps you.
wow.. unexpected, yet expected. Unbelievable potential, but greedy people behind the game ruined the experience and also the longevity of the game. Very unfortunate, but I guess they milked the cow as much as they could. Funny enough, the game could see a 2.0 Launch, with a fair monetization structure, a competitive F2P environment, and proper marketing. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if we see this happen a couple of years down the road. Anyway, it was nice as long as it lasted, and you did a great service to the community. Cheers o/
I know you lost interest in the game but it really is one of the better card battlers specially the way Duos played. Only reason why so many of us stuck with it even knowing how shitty WB was.
Exactly, that’s it’s. Nothing more than greed. They even sold us crying emojis to prepare us for the bs and sold people expensive picnic mats before putting the nail in the coffin
Yea it was run by Niantic but ofc it was in cooperation with Warner Bros. Even though Wizards Unite probably failed because of other reasons we can see a clear pattern in Warner Bros games and it clearly shows that this company is not able to make successful games
@@GicaForta True but tbh Wizards Unite just never had a real chance because Harry Potter is just not made for this genre, Pokémon was the perfect ip for this kind of gameplay so in my opinion it never made sense to release that game but oh well I guess such big companies like WB know things better than me ... haha
Yea it's weird that they didn't even try to release the PC client and by this point it's obvious that they just lied to everyone about the pc client, it was probably never even planned to get released on the global version of the game... such a shame :/
I dont want a thanks for them, I want an apology! What a waste of time and money for those who tried their best to progress and built huge guilds. And yet the other crap game Harry Potter Mistery is still up since 2018.
Thats nuts. I met my girlfriend in this game! The community was awesome. The game was fantastic! Just to greedy so I quit. But rly solid content updates even. This is a WB problem. I am putting them on my bad list and will not consume their products anymore.
Hey at least you met your girlfriend through this game so it was good for something! But I am with you, I will clearly avoid any games from Warner Bros... Probably one of the worst companies in the gaming industry right now
It seems mobile gaming as a whole is a dying industry, companies don’t care about cult followings and communities, they just care about large profits, this game had such a community of support sad the publishers didn’t care
Very sad ending to the game. Learned a lot of from all of your dueling videos. Hope to see you back with more videos on other games in the future, Greene!
I would definitely not start over again, if at one point we will be able to transfer our accounts to the Netease servers I'm back in but this is very very unlikely
I liked the game however the micro transactions killed the game. This is why you don't spend money on these type of games. Thank God I didn't spent more than $50
Ambassadors not getting any paid or special on-game item giveaway is such a joke. While compared to Netease, the global launch gives influencers like 100$. We must say it is really lucky for you to quit the role and stop spending WB client game at that time since what they "act to help" on your problem. If not for the information that we could prepare quality video for audience, it is really of no use and worthless. Free advertisement on the website or on the official social platform? Excuse me? Are we still using algorithm marketing in 2018?
The last few months have made a lot less, it started around the voting wheel and us having to fight for basic treatment. Seasons have been dull till last one, and everything is so overpriced. The treatment between servers still has been unfair till the end, so the fault lied fully in Netease. As for account transfers, Netease sees a lot of new accounts being made so they think all of the players are moving over, but these are the f2ps and low spenders. All the whales are not restarting, so Netease needs to realize that if they want them as customers they needto transfer. Hopefully theyvrealize theyre not getting the whales right now.
I'll never support anything WB come out with. The way they allowed people to constantly spend money when they most likely knew they would shut down the game months ago is beyond me. I loved this community so much. I'll miss you all.
Its only shutting down in WB versions and its only been 1 year not 2. But there is alot of activity in the community to try and get Netease to transfer WB accounts to NE version.
I know I know, which makes it worse that it‘s only one year, and I get it that people want Netease to takeover but I personally don‘t see a future in the game even if Netease takes over now, it‘s too late and the damage has already been done, sadly WB totally messed that up and that‘s just sad for everyone
Hey! I firstly just want to say thank you sooo much for all your hard work and effort into these Magic awakened videos that you put online. All the tips and tricks with spells and duelling I learnt so much from you! I really will miss your videos. I'm soo sad to hear what happened with the game closing down. I'm holding onto hope with this petition and already reported all my purchases from the game to apple. Thank you for always supporting us! 🪄
Thank you so much for your kind words. I know that alot of people have high hopes with the petitions but we need to be very realistic, once the decisions have been made to close the servers and they don't talk about servertransfers or so then it is insanely unlikely that it will happen, even if the petition would have 1 million people signing it :/
This game is actually good for gameplay phones, but one thing that makes this game feel so bad is too expensive in everything. So hard to get resources for f2p, too expansive for gacha, the gap between p2w and f2p is too far, etc. Just imagine you're playing as f2p or low spender, but you always use the same costume every day when playing this game, always use the same deck cards every day because you're only building for some cards. When f2p wanna rearrange their deck the level system on the card makes it feel so boring.
This sucks all of our hard work goes down the drain . I can’t believe they are doing this the game is really good . This sucks there’s only a few Harry potter mobile games that are good this is one of them I am very disappointed. I am not buying anything else from them again. Is there other way to get our stuff back or money? Is there other way we can play or join a different server or is it completely going to be gone ?
took too long for release , so many unnecessary changes in scene and mode , greedy and many wrong decisions , game have good concept but ruined by individuals
Wizard dont be silly, of course I remember who you are. You were the first person I looked up when I heard the news, I was like what's Wizard got to say?!
Oh that‘s so nice to hear 😄 and yea I mean when I heard it I knew I would need to make a last video about it because the channel started with Magic Awakened and it ends eith Magic Awakened and even if Netease takes over and people can transfer their accounts I can hardly see a future in this game :( I feel like the damage that Warner Bros has done is just way too big..
my thought to all persons who gives money to this game ! totaly lost ... remember, gacha games are always closing. Think about it ! your money never come back
Well gacha games are not necessarily all closing, especially not after 1 year. Look at gacha games like Genshin, Honkai, NIKKE and so on, of course those are some of the biggest in the genre but why are they so successful? Because they listen to the players and because even f2p players can have a great time in the game. But yea ofc it's always a risk to play gacha games, especially when they totally ignore the community and just spam the game with microtransactions
they should learn from reverse 1999. dev really listened from community, so much event to do. their official discord always alive. and so much more good thing
Yea Reverse 1999 is really insane and that game is crazy f2p friendly, a good recommendation for everyone who wants to start with a very chill gacha game :)
I have a question, what are they gona go with the people that spend sooo much money to play these game? are they gona take it out? its a bit of a Scam no? its like they whaste their money
If people don‘t somehow ask for a refund nothing will happen, Warner Bros tells everyone that asks for a refund that they won‘t do it. On Apple and Android you can get refunds for the last few months normally in a case like this, but I can for example do nothing because all of my purchases are more than 6 months old sadly
Money hungry,mean to f2p some of the events was hard to do even for whales so yeah saw this coming . I had every card in game and was f2p but they slowed it down for me smh Greene thanks for a good run buddy 💪🏿💯 ......also why are they talking like the game had a good long run 😂😂😂😂 smh boy they crazy
Yea they were to money hungry but they just forgot that they could have made way more money if they would have handled things differently. I will never understand how people in charge of games like this have gotten their position in this gaming market. They clearly have no clue and it makes me sick to see more and more clueless companies literally not knowing what they do and also not listening to the players ... it's sad to see the game end like this but it's probably the best for everyone because we know that WB will never change... And yea they are talking about a good run... yea just a tiny bit over a year until the END OF SERVICE ... amazing run lol
Didn't millions of people download this game? And people was spending Thousands, at least we still got hogwarts mysteries I hope. They deleted it off my phone
Yea it was millions of people who downloaded the game but way less than anyone would have expected for a Harry Potter game. And yes they make thousands of € with the game but that's not enough for such a game. You need to make more than 100-300.000€ per month (which was how much they made on the WB version of the game) otherwise it's not profitable enough for them.
Warner Bros clearly messed up big with this one, and yea seeing how successful Hogwarts Mystery is compared to Magic Awakened is insane... but that's just purely marketing, Hogwarts Mystery has very good marketing and that's why they managed to have a successful game and WB don't
According to your logic no one should spend money on free games so that means that free games will just not exist anymore in the future… I am sorry but I don‘t get your comment. We can be happy that such games exist so people that can not afford video games can have something to play for free. I get it that some games just totally abuse the microtransaction system like Harry Potter Magic Awakened did but don‘t blame the players. There are actually really good gacha games out there and for me personally gaming is a hobby and I like to spend money on my hobbies, nothing different than for example someone who likes to go fishing, he spends money on his equipement and I spend money on a game. The only thing people should never do is to overspend and to spend more money on a game than they can afford but otherwise I can not see a problem at all in spending money on games
@@WizardGreene stop playing mobile games that are designed to suck your money from you. You are just like the old people who are zombified on the slot machines in vegas
@@WizardGreene these are not games. Don't conflate the two. You are essentially supporting a toxic business practice and just telling the producers that " hey, this is all okay! We will gladly give you money for subpar content and blatant scam marketing and fomo inducing psychology grifts"
@@ThoraxtheDarkk They are games, I agree that some companies make super shady stuff but there are also decent and good gacha games out there, you just need to find them. I personally like some gachas because there is regularly new content and I can interact with people, that‘s why I prefer online games. It‘s also really conveniant to be able to play it on a phone, tablet or pc. I get it that the mobile market is like 90% bad games and 10% good games but it doesn‘t mean that all the games are bad and there are always other options and some people obviously prefer single player games or consoles.
it was a fun game at the start, but with how it was going with playerbase it was bound to happen. it was fun watching your vids on updates etc always exciting!
Yea the global launch was a very nice experience, even though we immediately saw a huge player drop after just one month but I can totally understand everyone, it was just to much pay2win and I get it that people are sick of it and just stop playing, sadly companies like WB will never learn from their mistakes.. And also thanks for your kind words
Wow thank you so much for your kind words, you prove once again how nice and lovely this community was / is! It feels really hard to leave this all behind but as I said the Harry Potter Community will always have a place in my heart
Thanks for everything and everyone for the support and for all the good moments I had in Harry Potter Magic Awakened

Loved the concept, loved the story, but the pay wall for cosmetics was just awful. Sad to see it go nonetheless
Hi Greene,
Let me help you on transferring your HPMA WB account to NetEase account with some minor changes on the account.
(Since you are a content creator, and this recent update might help you.)
1. Open settings in your WB account and select Misc. (At the end)
2. You will have a character code option. Copy that.
3. Go to your NetEase version and paste the code.
Your old account will merge to the NetEase version.
(Popularity and friend list are currently not transferrable)
Since HPMA has a lot of content yet to be launched on Global NE version (inheriting from Chinese version). The game still has lot of potential and shelf life to stay on the market. Hope this information helps you.
Hey I actually already did a video about the transfer and so on and I also already transfered :)
literally the only harry potter game on app store that is worth downloading
I was thinking about you yesterday and hoped you would make a video about this… Thank you for everything you’ve done for this community ❤
Damn. This was a helluva game. Thank you but keep going with other games!
wow.. unexpected, yet expected. Unbelievable potential, but greedy people behind the game ruined the experience and also the longevity of the game. Very unfortunate, but I guess they milked the cow as much as they could. Funny enough, the game could see a 2.0 Launch, with a fair monetization structure, a competitive F2P environment, and proper marketing. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if we see this happen a couple of years down the road. Anyway, it was nice as long as it lasted, and you did a great service to the community. Cheers o/
I know you lost interest in the game but it really is one of the better card battlers specially the way Duos played. Only reason why so many of us stuck with it even knowing how shitty WB was.
I cant even see me playing if they transfer i lost trust in the IP over all
Nice surprise on a bleak day. Nice seeing you again Greene. You were a great presence in the community.
Lol, i just started the game. I thought it was such a missed opportunity ruined by corporate greed!
Exactly, that’s it’s. Nothing more than greed. They even sold us crying emojis to prepare us for the bs and sold people expensive picnic mats before putting the nail in the coffin
It is honestly a big missed opportunity... But that's what you get when you have clueless people in charge of such games :S
They failed with Harry Potter Wizards Unite (which was like a pokemon go)
I thought that was made by Niantic
@@oneazterisk4669I do believe niantic shut that down even tho WB had their hand in the game too
Yea it was run by Niantic but ofc it was in cooperation with Warner Bros. Even though Wizards Unite probably failed because of other reasons we can see a clear pattern in Warner Bros games and it clearly shows that this company is not able to make successful games
@@WizardGreene you mentioned poor marketing. Wizards unite suffered from the same poor marketing as well
@@GicaForta True but tbh Wizards Unite just never had a real chance because Harry Potter is just not made for this genre, Pokémon was the perfect ip for this kind of gameplay so in my opinion it never made sense to release that game but oh well I guess such big companies like WB know things better than me ... haha
yep saw this coming unfortunately. I'm really sad about this man. A majority of my friends are PC only pretty much.
Yea it's weird that they didn't even try to release the PC client and by this point it's obvious that they just lied to everyone about the pc client, it was probably never even planned to get released on the global version of the game... such a shame :/
I dont want a thanks for them, I want an apology! What a waste of time and money for those who tried their best to progress and built huge guilds. And yet the other crap game Harry Potter Mistery is still up since 2018.
The only real apology and sign of appreciation would be a transfer to NetEase
Thats nuts.
I met my girlfriend in this game! The community was awesome. The game was fantastic! Just to greedy so I quit. But rly solid content updates even. This is a WB problem. I am putting them on my bad list and will not consume their products anymore.
Eww
Hey at least you met your girlfriend through this game so it was good for something! But I am with you, I will clearly avoid any games from Warner Bros... Probably one of the worst companies in the gaming industry right now
It seems mobile gaming as a whole is a dying industry, companies don’t care about cult followings and communities, they just care about large profits, this game had such a community of support sad the publishers didn’t care
Very sad ending to the game. Learned a lot of from all of your dueling videos. Hope to see you back with more videos on other games in the future, Greene!
it's time to come to Sphinx the best server for me
I would definitely not start over again, if at one point we will be able to transfer our accounts to the Netease servers I'm back in but this is very very unlikely
I liked the game however the micro transactions killed the game. This is why you don't spend money on these type of games. Thank God I didn't spent more than $50
Ambassadors not getting any paid or special on-game item giveaway is such a joke.
While compared to Netease, the global launch gives influencers like 100$. We must say it is really lucky for you to quit the role and stop spending WB client game at that time since what they "act to help" on your problem.
If not for the information that we could prepare quality video for audience, it is really of no use and worthless.
Free advertisement on the website or on the official social platform? Excuse me? Are we still using algorithm marketing in 2018?
The last few months have made a lot less, it started around the voting wheel and us having to fight for basic treatment. Seasons have been dull till last one, and everything is so overpriced. The treatment between servers still has been unfair till the end, so the fault lied fully in Netease.
As for account transfers, Netease sees a lot of new accounts being made so they think all of the players are moving over, but these are the f2ps and low spenders. All the whales are not restarting, so Netease needs to realize that if they want them as customers they needto transfer. Hopefully theyvrealize theyre not getting the whales right now.
I'll never support anything WB come out with. The way they allowed people to constantly spend money when they most likely knew they would shut down the game months ago is beyond me. I loved this community so much. I'll miss you all.
Its only shutting down in WB versions and its only been 1 year not 2. But there is alot of activity in the community to try and get Netease to transfer WB accounts to NE version.
I know I know, which makes it worse that it‘s only one year, and I get it that people want Netease to takeover but I personally don‘t see a future in the game even if Netease takes over now, it‘s too late and the damage has already been done, sadly WB totally messed that up and that‘s just sad for everyone
All servers went to Ashwinder. Like more like half the server is refugees. So people who don't know what to do see u there😊😊
Hey! I firstly just want to say thank you sooo much for all your hard work and effort into these Magic awakened videos that you put online. All the tips and tricks with spells and duelling I learnt so much from you! I really will miss your videos. I'm soo sad to hear what happened with the game closing down. I'm holding onto hope with this petition and already reported all my purchases from the game to apple. Thank you for always supporting us! 🪄
Thank you so much for your kind words. I know that alot of people have high hopes with the petitions but we need to be very realistic, once the decisions have been made to close the servers and they don't talk about servertransfers or so then it is insanely unlikely that it will happen, even if the petition would have 1 million people signing it :/
Brooooo, what the heck...
Wizard Greene GOAT!!
This game is actually good for gameplay phones, but one thing that makes this game feel so bad is too expensive in everything. So hard to get resources for f2p, too expansive for gacha, the gap between p2w and f2p is too far, etc. Just imagine you're playing as f2p or low spender, but you always use the same costume every day when playing this game, always use the same deck cards every day because you're only building for some cards. When f2p wanna rearrange their deck the level system on the card makes it feel so boring.
This sucks all of our hard work goes down the drain .
I can’t believe they are doing this the game is really good .
This sucks there’s only a few Harry potter mobile games that are good this is one of them I am very disappointed.
I am not buying anything else from them again.
Is there other way to get our stuff back or money?
Is there other way we can play or join a different server or is it completely going to be gone ?
took too long for release , so many unnecessary changes in scene and mode , greedy and many wrong decisions , game have good concept but ruined by individuals
Wizard dont be silly, of course I remember who you are. You were the first person I looked up when I heard the news, I was like what's Wizard got to say?!
Oh that‘s so nice to hear 😄 and yea I mean when I heard it I knew I would need to make a last video about it because the channel started with Magic Awakened and it ends eith Magic Awakened and even if Netease takes over and people can transfer their accounts I can hardly see a future in this game :( I feel like the damage that Warner Bros has done is just way too big..
Never heard of this game. Makes sense why rhey are shutting it down due to not being on the radar. 😢
my thought to all persons who gives money to this game ! totaly lost ... remember, gacha games are always closing. Think about it ! your money never come back
Well gacha games are not necessarily all closing, especially not after 1 year. Look at gacha games like Genshin, Honkai, NIKKE and so on, of course those are some of the biggest in the genre but why are they so successful? Because they listen to the players and because even f2p players can have a great time in the game. But yea ofc it's always a risk to play gacha games, especially when they totally ignore the community and just spam the game with microtransactions
im gonna miss my Hermione avada deck.
I hope you can find a new game that you can enjoy for a longer time than MA 🙏🏻
@@WizardGreene haha thx. I'm enjoying AFK journey right now. Playing since global launch
they should learn from reverse 1999. dev really listened from community, so much event to do. their official discord always alive. and so much more good thing
Yea Reverse 1999 is really insane and that game is crazy f2p friendly, a good recommendation for everyone who wants to start with a very chill gacha game :)
I have a question, what are they gona go with the people that spend sooo much money to play these game? are they gona take it out? its a bit of a Scam no? its like they whaste their money
If people don‘t somehow ask for a refund nothing will happen, Warner Bros tells everyone that asks for a refund that they won‘t do it. On Apple and Android you can get refunds for the last few months normally in a case like this, but I can for example do nothing because all of my purchases are more than 6 months old sadly
Money hungry,mean to f2p some of the events was hard to do even for whales so yeah saw this coming . I had every card in game and was f2p but they slowed it down for me smh Greene thanks for a good run buddy 💪🏿💯 ......also why are they talking like the game had a good long run 😂😂😂😂 smh boy they crazy
Yea they were to money hungry but they just forgot that they could have made way more money if they would have handled things differently. I will never understand how people in charge of games like this have gotten their position in this gaming market. They clearly have no clue and it makes me sick to see more and more clueless companies literally not knowing what they do and also not listening to the players ... it's sad to see the game end like this but it's probably the best for everyone because we know that WB will never change...
And yea they are talking about a good run... yea just a tiny bit over a year until the END OF SERVICE ... amazing run lol
@@WizardGreene your right bro. Whatever content you do I'm supporting as always 💯
I liked this game
Why do people have to take it away this was a our childhood movie and everything we could be out own character and become hero in hogwarts.
❤❤❤
The game is pure P2W thats why no one play this, and we have this final because of this, WB is trash , fuck them
I feel scammed.
I totally ban Warner bros I dont care how much I love Harrypotter but I’m done
Is it possible to play through Asian servers?
Another game gone, much Money gone... Business now Is make a game, closed game and use Money of people
Didn't millions of people download this game?
And people was spending Thousands, at least we still got hogwarts mysteries I hope.
They deleted it off my phone
Yea it was millions of people who downloaded the game but way less than anyone would have expected for a Harry Potter game. And yes they make thousands of € with the game but that's not enough for such a game. You need to make more than 100-300.000€ per month (which was how much they made on the WB version of the game) otherwise it's not profitable enough for them.
Game was just a money grab
Just like Harry Potter hogwarts mystery that’s a scam and look how long that’s lasting lol
Warner Bros clearly messed up big with this one, and yea seeing how successful Hogwarts Mystery is compared to Magic Awakened is insane... but that's just purely marketing, Hogwarts Mystery has very good marketing and that's why they managed to have a successful game and WB don't
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Bro now your acc can transfer nesteast sever
@@akshulthat3551 really? I didn‘t know that, is that 100% confirmed? And if yes how?
@@WizardGreene yes 100 confirmed
Now many WB players are come NE sever

@@akshulthat3551 yea I saw that, I‘ll make a video about it tomorrow
Why are you people spending money on these games , stop
According to your logic no one should spend money on free games so that means that free games will just not exist anymore in the future… I am sorry but I don‘t get your comment. We can be happy that such games exist so people that can not afford video games can have something to play for free. I get it that some games just totally abuse the microtransaction system like Harry Potter Magic Awakened did but don‘t blame the players. There are actually really good gacha games out there and for me personally gaming is a hobby and I like to spend money on my hobbies, nothing different than for example someone who likes to go fishing, he spends money on his equipement and I spend money on a game. The only thing people should never do is to overspend and to spend more money on a game than they can afford but otherwise I can not see a problem at all in spending money on games
@@WizardGreene stop playing mobile games that are designed to suck your money from you. You are just like the old people who are zombified on the slot machines in vegas
@@WizardGreene these are not games. Don't conflate the two. You are essentially supporting a toxic business practice and just telling the producers that " hey, this is all okay! We will gladly give you money for subpar content and blatant scam marketing and fomo inducing psychology grifts"
@@ThoraxtheDarkk They are games, I agree that some companies make super shady stuff but there are also decent and good gacha games out there, you just need to find them. I personally like some gachas because there is regularly new content and I can interact with people, that‘s why I prefer online games. It‘s also really conveniant to be able to play it on a phone, tablet or pc. I get it that the mobile market is like 90% bad games and 10% good games but it doesn‘t mean that all the games are bad and there are always other options and some people obviously prefer single player games or consoles.
@@WizardGreene just don't spend money on them
it was a fun game at the start, but with how it was going with playerbase it was bound to happen. it was fun watching your vids on updates etc always exciting!
Yea the global launch was a very nice experience, even though we immediately saw a huge player drop after just one month but I can totally understand everyone, it was just to much pay2win and I get it that people are sick of it and just stop playing, sadly companies like WB will never learn from their mistakes..
And also thanks for your kind words
You were always the best. Thank you for standing up for our community whenever you could. Wands up. ✨🫶🏻
Wow thank you so much for your kind words, you prove once again how nice and lovely this community was / is! It feels really hard to leave this all behind but as I said the Harry Potter Community will always have a place in my heart
Так народ це дійсно була цікава пригода в якій я зустрів багато класних та крутих людей всім дякую за ці емоціїї та час проведений в грі)
