Every once in a while, Peeves arrives to cause some havoc, but that is it for life in the castle. Teachers and students seem to float through the halls like nothing is happening. My major disappointment, however, comes from the rest of the cast around Hogwarts. They have some depth, but not enough to make them phenomenal NPCs. The other main characters you interact with are just alright. Sabastien seems to have some major depth, and after 15 hours of play, his story was the only one I really cared to explore. Listen, the main characters from each house are interesting enough, at least kinda.

Interacting with other students? Sub-par. There has likely been a non-stop smile on my face as I’ve explored the school and the surrounding grounds. The game looks phenomenal, and visiting areas I’ve seen in movies and read about in the books has been amazing. Walking around Hogwarts was almost everything I wanted it to be. However, when Wired said the characters feel very one dimensional, I realized I couldn’t agree more. Listen, Hogwarts Legacy is a dynamite game, and if I scored it right now I would give it a solid 9.0 / 10. Sorry! But there was something said in that review that people nitpicked, but that I don’t necessarily disagree with. The Wired review for Hogwarts Legacy took a lot of heat this week, and while you might be interested in my take on the review, well you won’t get that.
