huge numbers, great game! looking forward to follow up.
It was a really mediocre game tbh. The world and presentation are awesome and made with very good care for people who are clearly fans of the material
But the gameplay loop is quite boring. It remember me Ubisoft games with checklist of quests
The combat itself needs some tweaks as well, as it stands it's a bit easy and boring
This is how I feel for every Ubisoft game in last 10 or so years as well, pitying those poor folks who made all those wonderful worlds that Ubi games tend to have, just to see them completely fucked up by mediocre gameplay mechanics.
Well deserved, it's a good game
Insane number
This sales update moved Hogwarts Legacy into the top 20 bestselling games of all-time, at a tied 19th place with Sonic 1 (includes bundled copies) and Payday 2.
I'd love to get some more linear story driven stories outside of hogwarts and on the darker spectrum (Jedi Order/Survivor)
Well deserved
Really enjoyed this game, insane numbers!
Shows that a well-made single player game still can sell well and even measure up with juggernauts like CoD.
I wonder if this includes the free copies Epic is giving away for free at the moment (probably for less than 24 hours more?). It probably does?
