“Gaming industry don’t let this become a trend in “where the fuck have you been? How old are you my dude? You must not be that old at all if you’re bitching and complaining about the stupidity when it’s been going on in the gaming industry for a while now and when I complained about it years ago even though I was benefiting nobody said a damn thing but now all the sudden since everybody is a little upset that PlayStation is taking W for once it’s a big problem like GTFO my dude the rest of your video was fine but that shit really pisses me off Especially when this game has a wealth of cotton in it and you’re bitching and complaining about the one quest?

The only people bitching about the goddamn exclusive quest for people that don’t wanna PlayStation, I didn’t hear anybody bitching and complaining when Xbox was hoarding all the exclusive Contant back in the 360 days I wouldn’t know because I was a 360 owner people used to make fun of the PlayStation people for not having exclusive Contin and now all the sudden we give a fuck? Why because it’s not the Platform of our choice? Xbox get exclusive shit nobody says a goddamn thing I’m really getting tired of hearing this garbage because all of you are nothing but hypocrites, this has been a practice on Xbox for years as for PC players y’all get to enjoy the luxury of having content none of us can get we can even mad are goddamn game consoles! So let PlayStation have a goddamn free quest here and there or a goddamn potion or something like Jesus Christ you people are so annoying especially because I know that if it was on your preferred platform you would be a little more soft on the issue
You have to try the mage from "Your Only Move Is Hustle" (which is in a open beta right now) It's a very weird fighting game, turn based (kinda?) But the mage is incredible, has a lots of spells, pls try it
I actually think Harry Potter is the perfect franchise for Persona style gameplay where you play out the whole year day by day while increasing skills, learning things, solving things. I hope we get something like that some day
I mean... Have you slept under a rock? It's probably faster to list the things where Rowling behaved normally and well adjusted over the last years than where she didn't.

Hey I gave Wizard of Legend a try after your last video. You were right, it was an amazing experience. I only wish the elemental environmental synergies were more developed. Otherwise, rogue-like mechanics were well implemented.
For elemental synergies i recommend magicka and magicka 2. It is really fun to combine different Elements there. Wizard of legend really Doesnt have any elemental synergies to my know but it is more fun to play with different item combination
@berenarchidon8256 yeah magicka was OK, a bit slow to my taste but was unique at least. I still crave a magic combat puzzler type with environmental kills/interactions as a focus
6:56 I always thought the slytherin house was a bunch of young directionless kids getting into trouble who just needed good role models and direction. And much like our prison systems we just give up on them and stick them all in the same housing to let them symbiotically feed off each others negative behaviors and aspects to become worse. Its literally like kicking a hungry dog and wondering why it bites.
I find it hilarious that in an interview the devs stated that they designed the broom in a way to keep the player closer to the ground until later in the game after you've upgraded your broom. Then without missing a beat they showcase a flying horse that can go anywhere as something you get from preordering the deluxe edition.
I feel like the laser beam battles will be like the the button mash sequence at the end of a big battle where you have already done the big intense battle and it is more so a cutscene where you have to time the button presses at certain times like a quik time event.
The part where jay talks abut the god points of harry potter and the history that JK created, but then proceeds to call her insane got me laughing so hard
She's truly insane like she went from telling one of the most critically acclaimed wizard stories, and then in the future managed to devolve into no better than a fanfiction writer. "Yeah man everyone is either gay, trans or some other minority group" "These two characters are intensely gay with each other." Like what. I've heard of better Harry Potter fanfiction from high schoolers.
A lot of developers start off making cheap soulless corporate games (because money) before they get a project they can be passionate about, so their track record isn't necessarily indicative of their future performance. I remember there were some other big, talented dev groups that started off the same way.
Yeah, doing what Hollow Knight did is a huge risk/huge reward type-a-deal, and it's not something everyone's willing to take. Sure, you won't have a trashy game on your record, but if the passion project fails, then you're just fucked, not much you can do about it.
Lucky you. Summer reading was always assigned at my school. Nothing like being forced to do a book report on your first week back or else you start the year off with a failing grade
I think it's funny how laser-beam battles became so common in the Hogwarts universe, after they established, in the movies, that they were extremely rare occurrences... The only reason Voldemort's beam, and Harry Potter's beam connected like that, was because they had twin wands, wands containing feather cores from the same phoenix... This was explained IN the movies, but... I guess they forgot that, because now anyone can beam-connect with anyone, at any moment, and it's a super common occurrence? In a time-period BEFORE the events of Harry Potter?! Lmao. And somehow, 1800's wizard fashion (The whole Noire-style), looked more modern than early 2000's wizard fashion ( Based on 1600's style)? Make it make sense...
I'm not too optimistic about the game overall, seeing how lifeless Hogwarts looks in the trailer. Like, it's a freaking school, teenagers should be running around everywhere, doing a bunch of shit in the background but they're only standing in little clumps of silent idle animations and the few you can interact with stand there like trees with little sparkles around them to indicate they have a pointless fetch quest for you. At least, the combat looks pretty decent, but that won't suffice.
i mean hogwarts doesnt look too lifeless imo in the SoP it looked like there was areas where there were lots of npcs talking sitting down looking like they were talking and older years i hope the new showcase makes u change ur mind
@@randomterrarian5566 but even then hogwarts doesnt even look empty i mean maybe it did in the showcase we first got a couple months back but that was because that was literally a different build of the game on a dev kit the 2nd showcase showed how npcs outside of hogwarts are quite realistic there was one npc kid pretending to ride on a broomstick lol also the 2nd showcase visually looked better with textures and stuff so im excited
@@justvibing1889 nah nah they shit and then magic it away. However by the events of the Harry stuff they started using toilets…. Still makes the chamber of secrets restroom into a massive fucking continuity error but whatever jk isn’t that good at writing
I have some things to say. 1: The PlayStation exclusive stuff only lasts a year then it'll go on other platform's. 2: The developer's have said that there will be many choices that will allow us to go down the Dark Path. 3: THAT MOB PSYCHO MUSIC AT THE END OF THE VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😍
I never used lightning in games and it took me so long to realize that the lightning isn't normally blue. Blue lightning is my favorite because it just hits right. As someone who tried to die by lightning, this is what I want.
If you read the books, you'd remember that Slytherin fought back against the death eaters in the battle of Hogwarts like all the other students. The movies stole their moment.
I hope that the main storyline traverses multiple years so you get the experience of going through all of hogwarts, and that would also be a good way to lock some of the more powerful spells behind the main questline, I also hope that there is a skill tree that prevents you from unlocking EVERYTHING, I want there to be choices that you make which change what happens
My primary take from having followed the game over the last year or so, is that the developers really seems to care about the game, and have gotten at least some freedom to make the game they want to make aswell as the time to do it
Mana systems are only problem when it's an inconvenience to fill it and not a skillful part of the game. Ff14 is a great example of mana on healers/casters. You should never run out if you're playing properly, but you can if you don't know what you're doing
he talked about why a mana system is bad in one of his previous vids, TLDR: limited resource makes you spam the most powerful spell to get the best dps, disincentivizes cool spell combos and creativity
@@shalvei_ So the reason OP mentioned FFXIV is because although it doesn't have an "open combo system" or free combat and what have you, there's benefits to using your skills in a specific order to conserve mana and amplify their power as much as possible. No smashing funny big number button or it goes down the drain and now you have no mana, no bitches and a funeral to pay for. In more open games tho, Jay is right yessir
I'm confused. What's wrong with the "ASMR" videos? I think they're a neat way to make players watch places from the game and search for clues. They're basically free to make, unlike trailers. The devs are HP fans and know we're dying to get our hands on the game. They're just sharing what they can with other fans. I adore this game's marketing strategy.
@@azzy-551 Not even remotely true. That's like saying streaming is mostly porn. There are some really good ASMR videos with most just being generic as every other genre of entertainment. The best in ASMR are usually men but there are a few professional women who are really good at their craft and put care into their work. Moonlight Cottage ASMR has a video called "Wand Shop" that's related to Harry Potter and the set looks real and very well done. You should check it out if you haven't. There's also Gibi ASMR "The Adventurer’s Shop" which is more general fantasy. Pretty good stuff.
You know how Toys for Bob were assigned to work on Skylanders for years before Activision let them make Crash 4? That's basically how I see Avalanche rn because the game does look amazing.
I wouldn’t let the past games be indicative of this game, I mean From software, and Santa Monica Studios made some weird games before they got going on their big series and look at them now. Each have games that have won GOTY and this year they were pretty much neck and neck for GOTY. It looks like the devs of this game are passionate about it so I think it’ll turn out great
Can you choose your house, get your classes schedules that you'd have to actually attend to them or else u would repeat a year? May be reward for having good grades? Maybe competition with other houses? Teachers? Random festivals? Actually fucking year/seasons rotation? Sneak out of ur dorm at night? Secret path that leads to places where ur not supposed to be? Relationship with people? Quidditch?
The game came out and I can safely say… It’s upper-mid. Spell variety and creativity are lacking, but exploring the world, solving puzzles, breaking through shields using different kinds of spells with different effects (red shields go down either short range with fire damage or long range with disarming, for example) does get fun. I just wish it wasn’t trying so hard to hold exploration tools back. Like, I want alohamora, but I can’t have it until the story lets me have it. I can’t just do a Hermione and learn it by reading outside of class.
My biggest issues is that a lot of key components of the world like: hard magic system are being handled by the devs since they literally have so little to work with. My expectations for this game are low tbh
They NEED to look at D&D for inspiration on the spells. They can also look at: Neverwinter Nights, Divinity: Original Sin 2, and BioShock. Also Guild Wars 1... Actually... If they just completely ripped off Guild Wars 1, I wouldn't even be mad. lol
So I never watched nor read Harry Potter yet found myself in the wizards and magic brainrot club. The gameplay itself looks really damn good and that's definitely something it has going for it. Without Rowling's influence I think there's a high chance they take a good amount of creative liberty around things like available spells and answering questions Rowling never did. Definitely going to wait for more info but it has a large amount of potential.
@@16m49x3 Death of the Author is unrelated to this, as it's about interpretations, as it's stating the author's input holds no special weight in interpreting the meaning of the text. That has nothing to do with retroactive continuity (retcon) because retroactive continuity is changing or recontextualizing an existing event or piece of information. The author has the rights to retcon whatever they want, they can introduce information that changes the way something sits in the world. Now, the reader can choose to straight up ignore it if it's not in the book itself like Rowling's Twitter, but by itself your claim that DotA prevents already written books from being retconned is entirely false, as subsequent entries in a series can retcon something in a previous entry.
@@Xeconis Which if done too much can make people not consider them part of canon at all. Like with the new star wars movies Fans of star wars consider the old republic more canon than the new stuff, and it doesn't matter if disney says otherwise
Wild to use some quote about the sexual nature of Dumbledore's relationship when talking about J.K. Rowling going insane instead of the transphobic stuff
This video made me learn that gameplay wise cars 3: driven to win has the same fucking gameplay loop as cars 2 on the wii Drive, fuck around, go fast, win
To be fair, golbins aren't slaves, you're thinking about house elves. Goblins are more like lesser citizen of a caste system. Not that it makes it okay really... And the jew coding isn't making it better either.
@@MyBitch925 Liitle hook-nosed and greedy creatures who runs banks? That's every jewish stereotypes from the darkest hours of history. I'm not saying Rowling is necessarily antisemist. This portrayal of goblins is not really something she invented, but it's tactless at best to use it, and really a strange choice to make them the main antagonist in the game (should they really be, I'm open to give the game the benefit of the doubt for this, maybe you can actually side with the goblins)
@@bdletoast09 Bruh. More people associate this stereotype with Goblins than with fucking Jews. Goblins were always associated with gold since the leprechaunt and so it makes sense to portray them as bankers if they existed in the modern age, everyone does this, from dnd to Clash of Clans. Next your gonna call giants slavcoded and racist because they drink cheap booze and live in the snow in most fantasy settings, oh and lets not forget Dragons, they to love Gold and have big Noses, is how to train a dragon also racist?.
@@bdletoast09 i mean it is what it is like not saying you wont buy the game but if people really have a problem with that than they could just not get the game not try to boycott it but ig the jewish steroeotypes is kinda true but im sure that wasnt what jkr was meaning when she made them
Oh man I used to love the summer reading programs at the library. I was actually too good at them. My library based them off of how _long_ you spent reading, not how much you read. Which is kinda stupid actually, because I can read insanely fast.
7:59 how is that a good thing? how is not letting the genius behind this world be part of the most inspired harry potter game a good thing? have you seen what people do with stories they didn't create, but were given full control over? whatever they add will be like fan-made canon. I really hope they are just saying she wasn't involved so that they can avoid controversy, and that she actually helped them behind the scenes. just because she has weird and stupid opinions doesn't mean she isn't a genius or should be shut out of her own work.
@@TheStellarJay Because she's a good author, not a good filmwriter. the fantastic beasts 2 movie was also greatly misunderstood. I also hated it at first, but then i watched movieflame's video on it and it changed my perspective. If you're looking to actually be open-minded, then feel free to check that out. If you don't, then you're willingly and obviously trying your hardest to hate J.K.
@@donthavelove42 There's a differnce between writing a script and saying what should and should not happen in a game. She should have input, is what i mean. She could tell the story of harry potter so well in her books because that's what she wanted to do. that's what her ideas of lore and characters was built around. She still has so many ideas and bits of lore, but its hard to write a story around something that you just came up with because it's interesting and fit into the universe you created. If other people are going to be using her work, i think she should have a say in what happens and what doesn't happen, and also get to share ideas.
Disney Infinity went hard tho. I need this game more now. I don't even like Harry Potter that much. Let me go even further by admitting that I was a Percy Jackson type of kid. Man a Percy Jackson rpg would go pretty hard too.

If you read the books, you'd remember that Slytherin fought back against the death eaters in the battle of Hogwarts like all the other students. The movies stole their moment.
I hope that the main storyline traverses multiple years so you get the experience of going through all of hogwarts, and that would also be a good way to lock some of the more powerful spells behind the main questline, I also hope that there is a skill tree that prevents you from unlocking EVERYTHING, I want there to be choices that you make which change what happens
The thumbnail is wild
I like how the ability to jump is still one of the most important questions that you actually need to ask!
100 points to TheStellarJay for the thumbnail.
It's probably my first heart ever, so thank you, bro.
But the sauce?
English players would never known how hilarious that the spanish translate on the old hp game was

0:26 when you realise majority of the game is reading in animal crossing.
My primary take from having followed the game over the last year or so, is that the developers really seems to care about the game, and have gotten at least some freedom to make the game they want to make aswell as the time to do it
You HAVE TO PLAY "Your only move is HUSTLE" if you want to know what is to play as a wizard.
Mana systems are only problem when it's an inconvenience to fill it and not a skillful part of the game.
Ff14 is a great example of mana on healers/casters. You should never run out if you're playing properly, but you can if you don't know what you're doing
he talked about why a mana system is bad in one of his previous vids, TLDR: limited resource makes you spam the most powerful spell to get the best dps, disincentivizes cool spell combos and creativity
@@shalvei_ So the reason OP mentioned FFXIV is because although it doesn't have an "open combo system" or free combat and what have you, there's benefits to using your skills in a specific order to conserve mana and amplify their power as much as possible. No smashing funny big number button or it goes down the drain and now you have no mana, no bitches and a funeral to pay for.
In more open games tho, Jay is right yessir
8:11 holy shit i didn’t know u were drippin like that
That thumbnail really brought me in
I'm confused. What's wrong with the "ASMR" videos? I think they're a neat way to make players watch places from the game and search for clues. They're basically free to make, unlike trailers. The devs are HP fans and know we're dying to get our hands on the game. They're just sharing what they can with other fans. I adore this game's marketing strategy.
I loved the asmr videos. They solidify the world as something real and also its just overall relaxing
Mostly ASMR's reputation is what makes that a weird choice, especially for pre-launch advertising
ASMR is pretty much just porn.
@@azzy-551 Not even remotely true. That's like saying streaming is mostly porn.
There are some really good ASMR videos with most just being generic as every other genre of entertainment. The best in ASMR are usually men but there are a few professional women who are really good at their craft and put care into their work. Moonlight Cottage ASMR has a video called "Wand Shop" that's related to Harry Potter and the set looks real and very well done. You should check it out if you haven't.
There's also Gibi ASMR "The Adventurer’s Shop" which is more general fantasy. Pretty good stuff.
@@icebox1954 If it's not porn then why are you recommending it in the same way someone would recommend porn?
You know how Toys for Bob were assigned to work on Skylanders for years before Activision let them make Crash 4? That's basically how I see Avalanche rn because the game does look amazing.
That was a stellar ad read, I'm glad you included some of the best jokes in the video. Also props to Atlas for letting you keep them in
I was surprised when they approved it lmao
I really enjoyed reading the series, until I decided to take a break at the half blood prince
5 years ago
real
I just got the 7 books for Christmas was half blood prince bad?
@@Bottom_1999 in my opinion its the most boring book, but i read it to get to the seventh, which is probably my second favorite
@@deva4229 oh right thank you
ngl the thumbnail got me
Clicked for the thumbnail, stayed for bird guy.
he said "what, repairo?" but he didn't realize that repellious muggledum.
I wouldn’t let the past games be indicative of this game, I mean From software, and Santa Monica Studios made some weird games before they got going on their big series and look at them now. Each have games that have won GOTY and this year they were pretty much neck and neck for GOTY. It looks like the devs of this game are passionate about it so I think it’ll turn out great
Can you choose your house, get your classes schedules that you'd have to actually attend to them or else u would repeat a year? May be reward for having good grades? Maybe competition with other houses? Teachers? Random festivals? Actually fucking year/seasons rotation? Sneak out of ur dorm at night? Secret path that leads to places where ur not supposed to be? Relationship with people? Quidditch?
wait, so the goblins rebelling so they can get basic rights like wands and magic items like the humans get, are the villans?
I took a break to eat while playing and stopped at "haunted shop" because I'm literally inside it and had no idea it even existed.
The game came out and I can safely say…
It’s upper-mid. Spell variety and creativity are lacking, but exploring the world, solving puzzles, breaking through shields using different kinds of spells with different effects (red shields go down either short range with fire damage or long range with disarming, for example) does get fun. I just wish it wasn’t trying so hard to hold exploration tools back. Like, I want alohamora, but I can’t have it until the story lets me have it. I can’t just do a Hermione and learn it by reading outside of class.
woah someone mentioned wizard of legend, even in passing.
That game's got me feeling some way tbh, quite fun.
ok now we definely need a wizard games part II, where you review magicka!
1:06 And I just got shot in the face with nostalgia.
Anyone remember those imps you can yeet back into their dens? Or off a cliff?
My biggest issues is that a lot of key components of the world like: hard magic system are being handled by the devs since they literally have so little to work with. My expectations for this game are low tbh
They NEED to look at D&D for inspiration on the spells. They can also look at: Neverwinter Nights, Divinity: Original Sin 2, and BioShock.
Also Guild Wars 1... Actually... If they just completely ripped off Guild Wars 1, I wouldn't even be mad. lol
@@arnox4554 💯 Thats the way to go
I have an embarassing amount of hours on cars 3 the game
after the katchau ending
i died
4:37 how u gonna play katana zero music like its nothing i got chills man 🫠
Ngl that cars game looks lit 👀
4:37 *katana zero menu music starts playing*
So I never watched nor read Harry Potter yet found myself in the wizards and magic brainrot club. The gameplay itself looks really damn good and that's definitely something it has going for it. Without Rowling's influence I think there's a high chance they take a good amount of creative liberty around things like available spells and answering questions Rowling never did. Definitely going to wait for more info but it has a large amount of potential.
I mean, rowling started taking creative liberty around things already established too.
@@16m49x3 If it's your own material that's usually called retconning, as you already have creative liberty.
@@Xeconis
Not really. Death of the author and such dictate that a book already written can't be retconned.
@@16m49x3 Death of the Author is unrelated to this, as it's about interpretations, as it's stating the author's input holds no special weight in interpreting the meaning of the text. That has nothing to do with retroactive continuity (retcon) because retroactive continuity is changing or recontextualizing an existing event or piece of information. The author has the rights to retcon whatever they want, they can introduce information that changes the way something sits in the world. Now, the reader can choose to straight up ignore it if it's not in the book itself like Rowling's Twitter, but by itself your claim that DotA prevents already written books from being retconned is entirely false, as subsequent entries in a series can retcon something in a previous entry.
@@Xeconis
Which if done too much can make people not consider them part of canon at all. Like with the new star wars movies
Fans of star wars consider the old republic more canon than the new stuff, and it doesn't matter if disney says otherwise
Love hearing the random Lacrymosa just appearing in the video. Love it
TheStellarJay my beloved
that FMA brotherhood music hits different when you just finished the series for the first time
"couple" of plot holes is such a big understatement
If the game lets me join the goblin rebellion and arm the rebels I’m in
purple lightning is just superior and you are a coward to think otherwise
My cousin worked as a lead artist on this game at avalanche and that's the only way I know about this.
Preordered it I AM HYPED FOR IT SO MUCH
6:48 - clearly you were using magic when you predicted the true main plot of the game :’)
Wild to use some quote about the sexual nature of Dumbledore's relationship when talking about J.K. Rowling going insane instead of the transphobic stuff
Also like.. she's always been insane you can clearly see the antisemitism and racism in the harry potter books
ohh, that Katana Zero soundtrack in the background when he was talking about Vpn, that is so good to hear
it's 2023 already!! Please tell me you've played the game?
Video on it next week
@@TheStellarJay Awesome! I'm very much looking forward to it. mainly coz I am 100% with you on the first video about the Wizard games.
@@zatzu im looking forward to it because the game was a huge failure in my opinion and i hope he roasts the shit out of it
The beam clashes are the BEST??? WDYMMMM?? That’s such a Harry Potter thing! The main storyline also looks really good 😭
Could anybody tell me the name of the game that starts on 5:16
Wizard with a gun
Thanks o7
I have celeste running in the backround and every time the music started playing I was just like... HUH.... WTF
8:09 men.... I hate myself for laughing at this, and I hate you even more... 10/10 subscribing
I'm not gonna lie I put off watching this video for so long because the thumbnail made me think it was some weird clickbait, was a good video
what the FUCK is that thumbnail
The thumbnail 😭
What's the song at 2:31?
i think its resurrections from celeste 👍
a sneaky Katana Zero Ost “Rain on Brick” during an ad, like
3:47 man really used sims 4 music for his sponsor
fucking awesome

I'm not playing a game about stopping a slave rebellion
To be fair, golbins aren't slaves, you're thinking about house elves. Goblins are more like lesser citizen of a caste system. Not that it makes it okay really... And the jew coding isn't making it better either.
@@bdletoast09 jew coding? how?
@@MyBitch925 Liitle hook-nosed and greedy creatures who runs banks? That's every jewish stereotypes from the darkest hours of history. I'm not saying Rowling is necessarily antisemist. This portrayal of goblins is not really something she invented, but it's tactless at best to use it, and really a strange choice to make them the main antagonist in the game (should they really be, I'm open to give the game the benefit of the doubt for this, maybe you can actually side with the goblins)
@@bdletoast09 Bruh. More people associate this stereotype with Goblins than with fucking Jews. Goblins were always associated with gold since the leprechaunt and so it makes sense to portray them as bankers if they existed in the modern age, everyone does this, from dnd to Clash of Clans. Next your gonna call giants slavcoded and racist because they drink cheap booze and live in the snow in most fantasy settings, oh and lets not forget Dragons, they to love Gold and have big Noses, is how to train a dragon also racist?.
@@bdletoast09 i mean it is what it is like not saying you wont buy the game but if people really have a problem with that than they could just not get the game not try to boycott it but ig the jewish steroeotypes is kinda true but im sure that wasnt what jkr was meaning when she made them
Oh man I used to love the summer reading programs at the library. I was actually too good at them. My library based them off of how _long_ you spent reading, not how much you read. Which is kinda stupid actually, because I can read insanely fast.
Look I'm a simple man. I see a video with a pic of a girl stuck in a wall (in a skirt no less), I click on the video~
5:46 I agree, Sasuke lightning is the coolest lightning ⚡⚡⚡
Why thumbnail
they make a wizard game and can't be arsed to make an animation for unsummoning your flying broom, I don't have high hopes
7:59 how is that a good thing? how is not letting the genius behind this world be part of the most inspired harry potter game a good thing? have you seen what people do with stories they didn't create, but were given full control over? whatever they add will be like fan-made canon. I really hope they are just saying she wasn't involved so that they can avoid controversy, and that she actually helped them behind the scenes. just because she has weird and stupid opinions doesn't mean she isn't a genius or should be shut out of her own work.
She hasn't written anything decent since the last book. The fantastic beast films are the most incoherent plot hole ridden messes ever put to screen.
@@TheStellarJay Because she's a good author, not a good filmwriter. the fantastic beasts 2 movie was also greatly misunderstood. I also hated it at first, but then i watched movieflame's video on it and it changed my perspective. If you're looking to actually be open-minded, then feel free to check that out. If you don't, then you're willingly and obviously trying your hardest to hate J.K.
@@zaappz
"She's a good author, not a good filmwriter"
then i wouldn't think she would fit the game industry story writing
@@donthavelove42 There's a differnce between writing a script and saying what should and should not happen in a game. She should have input, is what i mean. She could tell the story of harry potter so well in her books because that's what she wanted to do. that's what her ideas of lore and characters was built around. She still has so many ideas and bits of lore, but its hard to write a story around something that you just came up with because it's interesting and fit into the universe you created.
If other people are going to be using her work, i think she should have a say in what happens and what doesn't happen, and also get to share ideas.
@@zaappz yeah kind of like involving George Luca on a Star wars game or show
The timing of this video made me think this was about wizards of the coast, the board gaming company
Disney Infinity went hard tho. I need this game more now. I don't even like Harry Potter that much. Let me go even further by admitting that I was a Percy Jackson type of kid. Man a Percy Jackson rpg would go pretty hard too.
U so real for this ❤
oh my god i didnt even know i wanted a pjo rpg thank you
Thank you for giving so much attention to Wizard of Legend, that game is amazing
