Setting aside the discourse and politics, are models in this game kind of wack or is it just me? I was watching cutscenes and it looks like the upper parts of peoples faces just stop functioning in some scenes.

I feel there are two models for most characters - a high def one for closeups and a low Polly for in-world. And it seems to switch between them badly sometimes. The old lady darkie Artie teacher is a good example.

Also I noticed professor fin’s face is all sorts of texture errors on raytracing in his office
 
Someone here posted a picture of a comic made by some christian organization back in the early 00s. It picked my interest and I looked for their documentary about Harry Potter called "Harry Potter Witchcraft Repacked" by Jeremiah Films. I watched the whole 1 hour and 6 minutes.

I think some things they said where badly interpreted, but others things were certainly spot on. In summary, they explained that Harry Potter is very similar to the Marihuana to hard drugs pipeline. The books in on itself wasn't hard satanic, but it could be the gateway for many kids to the new era stuff and paganism in general. Parents were afraid that children couldn't discern innocent fantasy (although J.K. baseline for her world is strongly rooted in true mithology and witchcraft practices) from real world new age stuff, and so they would try to learn more about how to make spell and shit on the internet or through friends and such. And it really resonated with me. If you had ever been in any Harry Potter website forum, there's a lot of people (specially women) who also overlap with things like Wicca, astrology and that stuff. At the end of the day, Christan families had to think about how even though Harry Potter was a fictional work, it also was filled with symbols, themes and ethics that could never align with their values. But the war was to protect their children. I think they didn't want to set J.K. on fire.

The new HP war 2.0, Attack of the Troons is really different. The Harry Potter is fertile ground for their values and philosophy, the devs even accommodate identity shit to appease them. But they simply don't care. J.K simply stated biological woman should still have their own space and to not blur the distinction between gender and sex. She said that autistic girls can be manipulated into becoming trans, and they should not take serious medical shit on their bodies that are irreversible. So she's a political enemy. Parents fighted because they wanted to protect children, in ther view, from Harry Potter. Trannies fight because they hate J.K. Rowling. I think they hate her not only for who she is, but also because what she represents. She got the balls to brake their illusion for a hot second.

At the end people didn't care and the masses consumed their shiny product happily. I wasn't really mature enough to understand the situation back then in the 00s, but I wonder if people bought the books with the same guilt some people nowadays buy copies of the game due to the (failed) boycott.

Sorry if this post was too long and dispersed, but I've got this in my mind and I wanted to leave it somewhere.
 
This game seems perfect to weed out unwanted company.

Even Sirona wouldn't approve of these Twitter activists, cancel culture bastards.

I'm not one to buy games, but I was having a good time watching Asmongold playing it. Don't usually watch him, but it did make me laugh a bunch of times.

I would've liked if you could interact more with the students/people, but so far seems like that's not really an option.

Anyone get it to run on windows 7?
Click to expand...

Windows 7 doesn't have support for latest gen GPUs so that's doubtful. You have to have Spydoors 10 at minimum

And proper hardware to run it smoothly. Hogwarts Legacy is going to have a massive patch soon, since there are lot of minor bugs and need for optimization.

My 2080 RTX card runs the game flawlessly with expection of physics heavy in game cut scenes eg Armored troll crashing through houses in early game, causing game to calculate multiple physics objects at same time, hundred different pieces or so.

My only complaint that stores don't sell those mystery beans and chocolate frogs since I got craving for both right now.
 
Played a bit and it's pretty good. It's basically a hi Def version of the prisoner of Azkaban game for ps2, even down to the whole field guide collectathon game play. Which is exactly what I wanted.

Character models are a bit dead eyed though, and alot of the teachers have wooden performances. Certain character really need to shut their fucking mouths too, namely the fast travel system and the main character. I do not need the answer to puzzles told to me, thank you.

I do wish the game focused more on the students than the boring ass main quest. The charm of the books wasn't the played out story, but the characters. I think if you could just have more options to team up with your favorites it would go a long way. Just have them follow me around and say how awesome/shit I am ala fallout or something. Goblin genocide is better with friends.

Speaking of, I eagerly await the dlc that shows the event that reduces the ridiculous amount of diversity in this game to the levels shown in the movies.

Selling your soul to Satan makes you cringe.

I've just started the game, and I'll echo that the intro isn't very good. Hearing other characters "ooh" and "ahh" at how big of a Mary Sue the PC is gets old before you even get to the combat tutorial. I hope this doesn't become a lasting theme. Impressive visuals though, and my admittedly somewhat overpowered PC ran it at a perfect 120 FPS up until the scene with the sorting hat, where it immediately dropped to Blighttown on PS3 levels of performance.
 
Time to get American all up in this shit.

I hope mods eventually add extra hair styles, there doesn't seem to be a even a pony tail option, ah whatever my current PC can't really run it, guess I'll have to settle for the console version

great view on this shit op
i believe Christians and the right wing are the most sanest through outs, their boycotts was just hue and cry and i get it.
They where raise to shit like jazz and soft tunes, suddenly you see guy screaming on top of his lungs and books teaching magic
which irked them.
And they weren't half wrong, in the dating market bitches are doing "witchcraft" which is consoooming incense sticks and fucking amazon knick knackery, and making weird numbers! My ex used to do that make me "charms"
like remember that time when witches wanted to hex allah! because of the taliban takeover lmao!
Harry potter is fucking over rated and will always be but a great media for kids, as kids just want a fantastical land where they wanna be wizards and witches

This feels like a PS2 game in terms of interactivity. People don't react to you or your spells at all, they just do their little routines and literally walk through you. Shoot a bolt at a window, it doesn't break but leaves a black spot that disappears in two seconds. You can't even make pumpkins explode. Meh.

Alright, I can confirm: You can't attack students or friendly beasts... But you can kick the shit out of the Beasts you place in your housing pen, including their baby offspring.

Well yeah that shit was a fad in the 90s; she was originally writing YA fiction to get that cheddar, it's not like she knew it'd become a franchise.
Y'know what Scholastic was pushing a decade ago? Pokemon ripoffs. Which Christians also said was satanic.

Actually, I can't think of one fad they haven't called occult. So we're casting the symbolic net pretty wide if rock music, elves, dragons, video games, astrology, slap bracelets, animorphs and pocket monsters are all the same thing.

So not to give troons any credit but I dunno how fair a comparison it is, they aren't spreading themselves that thin by renewing that kind of dumb mild hysteria yet again and it's still a novel fight in their minds. They're on the path though and we seem to be at the point where people are getting over it, so hopefully it's all downhill towards people taking them about as seriously.
