I hope they give me a real student experience with the next game. Classes were the best part of the game but also barely in it. I want house rivalries, quidditch games, house cups, give me a school full of unique fleshed out npc characters and reduce the game world size and I’ll be happy as a clam
@@imaginarycorgi7312 the opposite actually, id happily never be able to leave the grounds apart from going to qudditch or the forbidden forest (abit like the old ps2 games) and instead have a super fleshed out Hogwarts with way more hidden passages, student quests, mini games such as wizard chest, detailed classes where you actually have to do stuff like in bully etc instead of it being an empty space with alot of simple npcs like the first one
@@smiling-i3t Those games were good for the time. And I’m not asking for bullshit like AC Valhalla. Maybe explorable London with bit of the muggle world and Diagon Alley with the Ministry of Magic. It would be like Spider-Man 2 PS5’s addition to the original map. Basically the original map a tiny bit bigger with the London bits I mentioned. I’ve heard it will take place in Harry’s time. So maybe Grimmauld Place too.
I loved the open world of Legacy, but yeah something a bit more focused on the day to day life of a Hogwarts student would be very fun to me. Either that, or let us see other wizarding schools that were spoken of. I was really intrigued whenever they were mentioned.
not gonna lie, the world size is fine as is. Instead of making it bigger or smaller(idk why they would make it smaller) just refine the world and flesh it out even more. Do what you said and make the classes the most important part of the story and we follow our characters through some kinda mystery just like the actual harry potter movies
I wanted to need to eat and drink and survive within the massive school and world. Or actually have to go to class or skip class and sneaking out at night being more of a difficulty instead of just walking out
If WB can look at the failure of Suicide Squad and the success of Hogwarts and still think they should double down on live service then they deserve to fail.
This game always had mod support. But with new update all these mods not working now. The same sing with old savegames with these mods. New mods are junky and require WB connection. So now you're always being online under their control.
Funny this comes out right after I finished the game for the first time. Was decent but I agree with most overall reviews -- too much time running around random hamlets, not enough Hogwarts activities, combat only OK. I hope they listen to the gamers because it seems to me that criticisms were pretty universal. More Hogwarts, less killing random men in bowler hats wandering the landscape.
Yeah my sister was looking forward to this game but when she played it she said all she really wanted to do was attend classes etc and live the hogwarts experience lmaooo
you can't criticize the game cause it sold 28million copies 0-source: every youtuber saying this is a good game while throwing that number around (seriously it is a lot)
A little disappointed that it broke all my other mods, but that was expected. The real problem I have is that I like mods that keep the game fresh. I was using night curfew and immersive npcs so that I had to actually sneak around Hogwarts or sneak into shops at night to explore and get demigueses. I slowed down the time it takes for days to pass so that I could play slower. The biggest problem I have right now is that these mods are broken and I have no valid replacement yet. Hopefully a new mod is made or these mods are made official or the mods get fixed so they work
I still find it bafflingly stupid that they had no plans for DLC or expansions for HL. Even after they realized it was going to be a hit, they still didn't.
Steamboat Willie was a Disney property that entered the public domain just last year. Before Hogwarts Legacy, Avalanche was the studio that made the Disney Infinity games. There's your connection.
ive been following avalanche for a while closely and the core team seem to really care about getting the best product out for fans of the series. One thing with Hogwarts Legacy is that it is so lore accurate that you can tell they really do care about the game. I do hope they can continue to evolve after this warner bros business.
The red circle bug you experienced is called a sphere trace. It's used in unreal engine to detect the location of something it overlaps (The wall in this case). There is a setting that lets you see the trace for debugging purposes. They must've forgot to turn it off somewhere in the code. In case you were still curious as to what that was xD
3:10 I think their main reason for doing mods even tho the game is 2 years old is because they're getting it ready for the second game or are just trying to hype the sequel by raising the expectations
They are going to have people make mods and they will be able to put it in the next game. Thats why the modding is done on the UE and curseforge system. Its smart, modders will make them their next game and charge money for it.😂
Hopefully we get some sort of mod support ported to console in the future, it would be limited in comparison but would be cool with the directors cut. I have a PC but cbf re buying the game, even on sale.
The red circle around him is an unreal engine sphere trace. It had to do with the motion warping vaulting over the wall. It's not supposed to be visible in game.
Hogwarts Legacy is a great game. I love how the devs continue to tweak the game after all this time and it has me quite optimistic about the next game.
Tried replaying the game but... I still prefer the mods available in Nexus since I literally made my character look like an anime waifu which is not available in the current mod updates.
There are still some engineers on hogwarts legacy that did what they wanted to for this update, not something the "bosses" wanted to put in for customers would be my guess.
Initially I, like many others, was super pissed that my nexus mods weren’t working but I think we just need to give the mod authors a few more days/weeks. Already many of them have said they’re trying to figure out the creation kit to get make their mods compatible with the update. I’m hopeful that mod support will allow the authors to make more elaborate mods and give the game a second life and maybe even re-introduce cut content.
Its just crazy to me that with the ultra plus mod developed by 1 person, the game looks way better and is more optimized than with the new "official" version.
I was wary at first when this game came out. I eventually just forgot about it and never bought it. But just because of this update for mods and optimization I'm gunna buy it. It just goes to show there will always be a market for single player games with solid updates and proper support.
This game has the framework for the immersion mod it needs. Just a bit scripting. House points - actually works Curfews - you cant go outside at night after x hours or risk losing points, but can use stealth to fool the wardens. If youre not back before 5:30 am you automatically lose house points. Curriculum - you need to attend classes on specific times every weekday or risk losing house points. Classes take actual in game hours. You need to do this every day and theres a tineskip for the days the class isnt quest related / story related. Basically all the time you spend fooling around in the game is done either in between classes or at night, risking getting caught and losing house points.
I know multiple people who became full-blown gamers because of this game. Like, they had literally never played a video game on a PC. One person even went on to 100% RDR2! I credit HL for that.
If they just gave us a truly open world with a much better combat/magic systems. Do the whole school thing the proper way with the school breaks as the open world learning and leveling up phases. If you did all the school years as progressively harder season releases you'd have an endless movie style game.
No doubt this breaks all the preexisting pc mods that have been out for a while now.. hopefully those people will fix them to work with the new update.. honestly i wouldn't be surprised if they made this in order to get rid of any mods they didnt want like nsfw stuff
I wasn't familiar with mods at all, but I decided to try cyberpunk 2077 with mods and oh my fucking god, it's another whole new experience with just little things.
I've been playing this game for my first time on PS5 it's not bad but I can see how it gets slightly boring if your not q big fan of Harry Potter and the universe and lore
Oh even as a avid Harry Potter fan me and my wife got pretty bored with the game. It’s a decent first Playthru, but it’s very lackluster as an RPG. I remember the developers were trying to compare themselves with the Witcher three, which is one of my favorite games ever made and if you compare the choices from Hogwarts legacy to the Witcher three, it’s not even comparable it’s honestly laughable. I was much sort of hoping we would get some thing like the Witcher three or fallout new Vegas when it comes to options and replay value set in the Harry Potter universe, but I barely passes as an RPG
Just wanted to stop by and say I appreciate your channel they’re very informative and honest I’d like to upgrade to a pc at some point if you can I’d like to ask your opinion on a good gaming pc as I’m ignorant to the best bang for my buck I have about 2 grand your recommendation would be greatly appreciated thanks as a fan to your channel keep them coming I look forward to your input
Hoping my existing installed .pak mods from nexus mods would/will still work fine. RIP Small UI, School Makeup, NPC Schedules, Spells Enhanced, Reshade, etc. if not. Neglected to mention that this could potentially brick the thousands of existing mods with over 16 million downloads. My game looked almost movie quality with reshade running- I'll be really sad if I can't use it anymore.
I would love if they add this to console. I know not ever game can do console modding but after BGS and BG3 have done it I feel like most games should. And this game should be one of them
hopefully this will make the devs/modders fix the terrible CPU usage issues and finally make this game playable because as it stands there is still no pc CPU in existence that can run this game properly.
Thanks for the controversy the game had it became so successful. I'm one of those people who we're not into Harry Potter but bought this game and loved it.
@appleblossom1403 man, that's a bummer, I literally just beat HL yesterday and want to keep playing, but there is nothing for me to play cause I did everything.
I think they are keeping their word both ways Quidditch game is multiplayer live service The mobile HP games are monetized with micro transactions. Hopefully with those things existing, they leave Hogwarts Legacy as a single player adventure
Unfortunately it broke all the mods i had installed which were basically hair and custom faces for my characters. Quite sad really. Although ray tracing is almost playable now so theres that
Now i'm sure he is biased towards the companies, saying the game does not run very well when it is a stutter knightmare and don't reach 30 fps, and saying is not a masterpiece when it is a boring copy of a batman game.
Luke getting Mcdonald's: "I tried the Big Mac...."
Tbf, we'd all watch that review too 😅

upload it then
Theres a mod for that

pretty sure that's been in the game for some time now
@jetsssssss right requests some pointless feature when do many other things needed worked on
If WB can look at the failure of Suicide Squad and the success of Hogwarts and still think they should double down on live service then they deserve to fail.
Luke can't go a week without the "i tried it" thumbnail.
We do know that, at the very least, he tried to do it.
he is just doing his job you are a bad worker I can smell it on you
Incoming Hogwarts Squad kill the Voldemort League, Luke jinxed us.
Now that this game has mod support, I want to see an actual functional first person mode mod
Yes I agree!
with Arx Fatalis casting system?
or like in the older (PS2 era?) Harry Potter games?
that would be noice

there is a vr mod that managed to make first person work, but its vr only
There needs to be an audio mod for Wingardium Leviosa not Wingardium Leviosa.
There is already, go to Nexus Mods.
They have had it for years, it was one of the OG mods for the game.
Leviosaaaaaaagh!
That's crazy how I knew exactly what you meant.
We need a Lord of the rings/Middle earth overhaul mod.
I see what you did there.

can´t wait for CJ vs Shrek
If the next Hogwarts game is live service I won't be playing it even of it's ftp. Live service gaming has ruined games imo.

This is always a problem which is why Steam needs to allow us to rollback to earlier versions of games.
also they forced us to use online connection to WB service which is crap
I still find it bafflingly stupid that they had no plans for DLC or expansions for HL. Even after they realized it was going to be a hit, they still didn't.
Your editor is on a grind damnn
Can't wait to be bombarded with nsfw snape mods in my timeline.
I'm 100% sure that it's not allowed to have such mods 😔
Yeah they will "regulate" the mods @@giuliar2539 so changing characters etc is probably not allowed.

Hey Luke! Great video! BG3 also has in-game mods now, and I would love to see you cover it!
The mod community can keep the game alive for decades to come 🎉🎉

Its smart, modders will make them their next game and charge money for it.😂
Nah the real reason is so they can control what mods can be used.
@azuma_ayame they can't anymore. I discovered a way around their moderation system lol, I posted the method on my nexus mod: Hogwarts Resequenced
I guess Steamboat Willy got decapitated because Luke ignored doing his quest
Steamboat Willie is a mod we didnt know we needed
Waiting for the Quidditch mod 🤞🤞
I love how this game is getting treated like Skyrim, constant updates and features. All great games deserve this treatment.
Hopefully we get some sort of mod support ported to console in the future, it would be limited in comparison but would be cool with the directors cut. I have a PC but cbf re buying the game, even on sale.
2 uploads in the same day is crazy work.
Is there one for the Herbology professor.....?
maybe on Based Mods site
Nexus moderation team would nuke those and some others they don't like
@SpecShadow yeah that's fair.
Any risky mods are immediately banned since it takes place at school even if it just changes the teacher
Hmm? Oh yea theres been one of those on the Azkaban Moddong discord since like 2nd month of the games release
Community made mods are still better. This update also breaks current mods so we need to wait for old mods to be updated
I hope the next game goes over to diffrent schools if not than expand the diffrences in houses, comapanion characters etc.

It´s no wonder the mods are free. Right now, they have like 15k 24h peak of players, while the total amount of players at release was
Allowing mods doesn't cost them anything, but it makes the game more attractive to people who have yet to buy the game.
There are still some engineers on hogwarts legacy that did what they wanted to for this update, not something the "bosses" wanted to put in for customers would be my guess.
Fully functional classes and having to sneak out at night would be great

Applying for a live service/ micro transactions specialist is like signing up to be a tax collector in medieval times.
The game has so much potential for a sequel- just please give human dialogue, please
i wish they had added , wizard cards or bertiebotts beans into the base game , i loved collecting the wizard cards in the original HP games

Hey Luke, nice KCD2 collector's edition in the background.
Good, now someone can make the selkie tribe in the black lake as a side quest or something.
At first I thought you morphed into the dragon 😅. Then I saw your little character in there. 😂😂😂
Using Ubisoft as inspiration for Legacy is a bad idea. Ubisoft is on the verge of compltely collapsing, AC is on the verge of failure as an IP.
Would be awesome for a "no cooldown" combat mod for spells
I know multiple people who became full-blown gamers because of this game. Like, they had literally never played a video game on a PC. One person even went on to 100% RDR2! I credit HL for that.
suprised it looks pretty robust not just little retextures or tiny mods
built in tipping options would be nice
I want to be the new bad guy. I did the “evil” ending for a reason

I want a mod that changes the main quest. And maybe instead of a student you’re one of the teachers apprentices ?
My Steam Store Page states, that the game includes in-game purchases. So if there aren't any at the moment, they probably will be coming
No doubt this breaks all the preexisting pc mods that have been out for a while now.. hopefully those people will fix them to work with the new update.. honestly i wouldn't be surprised if they made this in order to get rid of any mods they didnt want like nsfw stuff

They broke all the existing mods and they're CENSORING the most popular mods through that stupid "CurseForge" platform.
Lmao after this update my game won’t even launch
hogwarts and the whole harry potter franchise is basically too big to fail, as long as they have good people and good intentions behind it.
Next game is a Hogwarts game in the "The Division 2" style.
Uh Oh....Here comes the Harry Potter with guns mod😂
Doubt they would allow that considering it's a "school" 😂

I think they are keeping their word both ways
Quidditch game is multiplayer live service
The mobile HP games are monetized with micro transactions.
Hopefully with those things existing, they leave Hogwarts Legacy as a single player adventure
This is great and a very great video 💯
hogwarts legacy is gonna be a big franchise with there upcoming titles named as hogwarts identity, hogwarts supremacy, hogwarts ultimatum...
Do you think they will ever add this mod support to consoles in the future??
Thought this update killed my performance turns out it decided to set all my graphics setting to Ultra for no good reason.
Is just me or the rt is way better than before 👁👄👁
Finished this game once and never came back finally a reason replay though id probably wait for a few more months for the more mods to come out
Screen space reflections don't like dragons
We need a Gandalf mod
Dude playing a free big mod feature update and is still skeptical 😅 damn! “What’s their angle here 🤔”
Is having mod support from the devs like this a good thing for the game and mod community?
That's my weekend booked.
Honestly, it's disgusting that the harassers act like nothing ever happened in the first place.
Unfortunately it broke all the mods i had installed which were basically hair and custom faces for my characters. Quite sad really. Although ray tracing is almost playable now so theres that
I hope someone makes a coop mod
Referring to them as “past statements” is pretty irresponsible and factually incorrect.
