Yes, I highly doubt you would be able to run around the the school spamming Avada Kedavra and CrucioThe Disney Infinity games are actually very well designed and developed. I expect similar here, accessible and well constructed and plenty of attention to detail for the fans, but not really going to be what people expect (i.e Witcher 3/GTA set in Hogwarts). It'll be more like the lego games, which isn't necessarily a bad thing in many ways, but not something anything other than potter fans will really enjoy on any deep level.
Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised to see a polished game, I just don't see the potential for this to be the open world game changer some are hoping for it to be. Best I'm hoping for is a modern version of 'Bully' with a Harry Potter coat of paint.
I think a well done harry potter open world would be fab, and certainly something a lot of fans would have been dreaming for. What we don't want is a Ubisoft style open world - i.e inorganic, drab worlds with pointless objectives cluttered all over the place, towers to climb and the game feeling exhausting a few hours in.
You only dislike OW because your sense of direction is terrible and you get lost often.You deserve it. Have some Cage.
I have amazing sense of direction as you well know! You monster.
I thought it’s been delayed till April?
Still says 10.02 on Steam and their site. April for PS4 and Xbox One
Pretty sure new gen and PC is still Feb. Old gen is April.
It's a third-person open world story-driven action game pal. It goes without saying PS is getting it first.
Ahh right, must have read it wrong then. Still think they’ve missed a big opportunity by not implementing an online functionality.
The biggest red flag for me is its existence. You can't really create an innovative IP when you have such a huge fan-base to appease.
What are the red flags? Everything I've seen of it looks pretty good, I have to say. I don't know much about Harry Potter though.
There’s an arena that’s only available if you buy a special edition. So makes me think there will be micro transactions.
That's my main concern too. I think the dark magic is a dlc too.
Is a 1080 steep these days? There’s been a 20XX, 30XX and now 40XX released since then. The 1080 was released nearly 7 years ago.
Really? That's annoying. I noticed that if you pre-order you get a few extra bits too.
Ah, had no idea. I hate shit like that. In my opinion any sort of exclusive, in-game content for pre-orders or special editions at launch is completely unacceptable. Not that I was looking to get this early or whatever, but this just means I'll wait for the inevitable "complete" edition at a heavy discount years down the line, if I ever decide to buy it at all.
I'll probably get it anyway since my girl is a massive nerd, just didn't realize I'll have to give her my 3070 as well
I'd say yes. A 1080TI, which they quote, is (to simplify things) as fast as a 3060 card just without the DLSS capabilities. Most AAA games to come out this year were much less resource intensive. For comparison, Cyberpunk runs with 70+ fps on mixed mid-high settings; Dying Light 2 with 70 fps on high. Both games with no upscaling. Plague Tale Requiem runs with 60ish fps on 1440p Ultra settings + FSR.
