>beautifully crafted huge and well realized Hogwarts castle>90% of the game happens on the outside>you only attend each class once>rest of the game is a glorified collectathon ubisoft game Swing and a miss of the century
>>749063701just have to pray they don't absolutely fuck it in the 2nd game
There's a mod that allows you to regularly attend classes, unfortunately it's been broken since last year
>>749063701>>you only attend each class onceSeriously? Why not make it like Bully where you can attend the classes multiple times for various bonuses?
>>749063701HP really needs to get a game from an actual video-game studio instead of a collecathon french-fucks at Ubisoft.A CRPG would do too.
"HARRY POTTER DID YOU IMPREGNATE MALFOID AND TURN US ALL INTO IMPRESSIONIST PAINTINGS YOU GLORIOUS SON OF A BITCH" Dumbledore said calmly. "I'VE GOT AN ERECTION I COULD BLUDGEON DOBBIE TO DEATH WITH, 500 POINTS FOR GRYFFINDOR"
>You only attend each class onceWhat's the fucking POINT? I want the magic school experience!
>>749063848They'll restore all the shit they cut from the first one and lean more into being an actual RPG/school sim. Trust the plan.
I was gonna get this but then saw a gameplay video of it stuttering on a 5090. That's insane.
Have we hit peak angst yet?
>>749063701I really hope the next game focuses much more on the social aspect. I cannot even understand why they didn't focus on it in the first place.
Thank you Shiina for the experience
>>749063701everyone wants a wimsical persona game with wizards and witches but no one is willing. I think there is a gacha. A FUCKING GACHA willing to do it but fucking end me
>Make it Persona styled with actual fucking Calendar Dates>Examination Dates>Relationship building>Make stats your Magic aptitude stats>Bunch of NPCsFucking writes itself right
>>749063284Reposting this request in here. I'm desperate and my heart aches.
>lick my feet, loserhow do you respond, /vee/?
>>749063868Holy shit, Malfoid turned Dumbledore straight
"HARRY POTTER DID YOU ASK MALFOID TO THE DANCE?! HER FATHER'S SO PISSED,HE HOOKED DOBBIE UP TO A CAR BATTERY AND USED A TIME SPELL TO TURN SECONDS INTO HOURS, FUNNIEST SHIT I EVER SAW. I hope you understand the gravity of the situation and why I'm only awarding 50 points to you."
>>749063958
>>749063701i caught you yearning again /v/ explain yourself
Other than posting Malfoid. I want to see your Pottermore results, I like seeing what other anons get. People were posting them in a thread before no-fun janny showed up and nuked it.
>>749063912I really hope they do, expand on it too expand character customization too I don't want to have to rely on mods again
>>749063967There's the korean fanfic that predates all this by a few years https://abendrot.neocities.org/malfoid/malfoythevillainess_en_0.1.epub
Have we decided on her name? I propose Draconica.
>>749063701I'm worried WB will force them to make another Magical Ubisoft game.
>>749063985Peak tsunderes tend to do that
>>749063984The lack of self awareness is astounding
where is her game?
>>749063859>french-fucksAvalanche Software is an American studio based in Utah, and Hogwarts Legacy is their first AAA title. Prior to that, they've mainly made licensed games for various children's networks and the infamous Dragon Ball Z: Sagashttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avalanche_Software
>>749063858I am pretty sure you have to go back to the classes to learn different spells after fulfilling requirements but I don’t remember the game super well so I could be wrong.
>>749063941Other anons have theorized the publisher (or some head dev/suit) cut that to make the game as approachable as possible. Sounds plausible to me.
They're not going to make a AAA game where you get to romance a minor, best case scenario they accidentally build the framework to let it happen through mods but idk how moddable the first game is anyway.
“HARRY POTTER!!!! WHY HAS THE MAJORITY OF HOGWARTS’ MALE STAFF AND STUDENTS BEEN SUBJECTED TOTHE GENDER-BENDING SPELL?!”“Headmaster, I can explain—”“TEN GORILLION POINTS FOR GRYFFINDOR!!!”
>>749063701The problem with Hogwarts as a personaRPG is the fucking quittich The game NAILED the fantasy aspect, but the game was nonreactive and unimpressive
>>749064090>That vialSo it's now a universal symbol for a love potion?
>>749064035How does she fly on a broom with a skirt that small?Anyway, I liked Dracaena
>>749063935No, not yet.
>>749064086Pretty sure the first one was supposed to have it but it only got cut due to time constraints.
Oopsie
>>749064013I was a loner nerd who missed out on high school love. Let me yearn.
>A Magical Classroom sim with Puzzles, Platforming, and occasionally battling whatever terrible things Dumbledore and Hagrid have hidden on school grounds.It's all I want, man.
>>749063701Them not making this Hogwarts Bully was the biggest fuck.up. Hopefully they'll fix that in 2.
>>749064128DELTE THIS
Imagine going to gringotts again......the horror of having to deal with goblins
>>749064035I like both Dracaena and Draconica, but I prefer the first one.
>>749064035I find attempting to feminize name by just adding "a" or "ina" is cringe, and especially when it increases the syllables. Draco was named after the constellation (which is a snake), that would still hold for malfoid imo. Either that or something completely different.
>>749064151DUMBLEDORE, VERY CALMLY:“MISS MALFOID, STOP USING FAKE PREGNANCY TESTS ON MR. POTTER.AND YOU, HARRY, STOP BECOMING A FUCKING WOMANIZER OR I WILL KILL YOU.HOWEVERFOR YOUR BRAVERY AND ABSOLUTE LUNATIC BEHAVIOR IN DOING THAT IN FRONT OF THE STUDENTS, PROFESSOR AND ME AT HOGWARTSI SHALL GIVE YOU3000 MILLION POINTS TO GRYFFINDOR.”
>>749063701With AI modding putting games in games, who's gonna put Bully in Hogwartz?
>>749064180Nyo
“Scared, Potter?!” Malfoid called out. “No” he replied, clasping his arms around her, steadying her shaky hands in his own. “Not when I have you. Now concentrate, we can do this!” “…together?” She asked.Harry nodded. In unision, two voices roared as one.“EXPELLIARMUS!”
>>749063701i wonder what other sports you can play other than BROOM GAME
>>749064227>Accidentally kill your future wife while she's having a mental breakdownHow would one even begin to cope?
>>749064206HARRY POTTER, DID YOU TURN EVERYONE IN THIS FUCKING SCHOOL INTO WOMEN?!YOU BASTARD, STOP IT! WE'RE GONNA RUN OUT OF MEN!AND—OH GOD, WHY DID EVERY OLD WOMAN TURN INTO A FUCKING MOMMY BADDIE?!EVEN UMBRIDGE?!WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE, POTTER?!10000 point to GRIFFINDOR
>>749064175There is no hope of the series ever being good with the house cast they set up in the first game imo.
>>749063917>>749063935>>749063958Stop spamming this meme whore
>>749064075Probably, yeah, which fucking sucks. There's no real consideration for fun or artistic integrity if sanding off every corner appeals to an extra two percent of turbo-normies, I guess.
>(ugh… he looks just like his father…)
>>749063984>I supposed she decided to side with the hateful ones masking as supportive people.This has to be satire.
>>749064184HARRY POTTER!THE WIZARDING GAZETTE JUST PUBLISHED YOUR ANTI-GOBLIN REMARKS FROM 13 YEARS AGO!I'VE GOT THE MINISTRY BREATHING DOWN MY NECK!THE NifflERS WILL USE THIS TO GET A MUDBLOOD ELECTED IN MY PLACE NEXT YEAR!GIVEN THE GRAVITY OF THE SITUATION I'M ONLY AWARDING 500 POINTS TO GRYFFINDOR!
>>749064174If you want to know where your quest objective is, interact with the paintings and they'll all point you in the right direction. Instead of the ubishit fart trail Legacy did.
>>749064257Still waiting on someone to draw/write Harry and Dracaena standing in front of the Mirror of Erised, and both of them complaining that it's defective because they only see each other in it.
Quidditch is super fucking overrated. It's just a worse rugby on brooms. You could create ANY sport with all the magic in the world and you settle on shitty broom rugby? For shame JK
>>749064362I can't see a world where FemSnape exists and she doesn't molest Harry, it's like trying to get five from two plus two.
>>749064318With everything that happened to the MC in Hogwarts Legacy 1, there's no way we can have a direct sequel.I remember rumors that they wanted to move Hogwarts Legacy 2 closer to the books.
"Scared, Potter?"At her playful smirk, Harry chuckled softly and met her gaze."A little?""You know you can't back out now, right?"malfoyd smiled as if making a stern threat, but she couldn't hide her trembling fingertips and the blush creeping up her cheeks.Looking into her eyes, Harry lowered his voice with absolute earnestness."No... I think I'm okay. I was just thinking about the day we first met.""W-what...? Wh-why on earth are you thinking about that now?" As she rolled her eyes in flustered surprise, Harry offered her a gentle, affectionate smile."Truth is... at first, you kept teasing me and giving me a hard time... I didn't like it at all. But as time went on, getting to know you better and going through everything together, I became certain. Since being with you is so wonderful, I want to spend so much more time with you in the future. I learned countless spells at Hogwarts, but right now, this is the only thing I'm sure of."At Harry's sincere confession, malfoyd pressed her lips tightly together, holding back the overwhelming emotions welling up inside her."I've been waiting for this moment my whole life. The greatest magic in my life is falling in love with you."After a brief silence, she finally let out a tearful yet impossibly radiant smile, and muttered softly,"Seriously... typical Potter..."
>>749064180The angst and misunderstanding is vital for this romance to pull off the ending.
Hogwarts makes me depressed since there's no public institutions for studying anything supernatural. Maybe one day society can unmask the psychic vampires and overthrow their shadow rule over academia and the government.>>749064198>>749064035"Draco" is a masculine noun but it is third declension so it could be be a feminine name without much thought.Names are one area oddly enough were the Latin rules of gender are a little more flimsy too.
>>749064301
The Dumbledore posting just isn’t the same without him beating the shit out of Dobby
>>749064301In the Malfoid reality, that final encounter would've probably gone a lot differently.But if said reality still played out as the current Malfoy encounter does, imagine the global levels of seethe.
>>749064470;-; someone please hold me. I just can't
>>749064443a rugby-like game is the only game where i can only imagine the strenuous injury and the following sport is hockey. I don't know how but the NFL made current (American) football even gayer with the new rules
>>749064443Listen, we gotta do something with Flying Broomsticks. It's either Racing or stupid Magic Rugby.
>>749064403BlueSky is literally just people getting mad at Flies for preferring Honey over Vinegar.
>>749064446Just having the player be an ordinary fucking student with the standard Hogwarts experience would be comfykino. Nothing made me roll my eyes harder than realizing the PC could cast extra-special magic, and nothing made me despair more than watching campus activities fade further into the background as the plot went on.
for some reason game designers dont seem to understand what people want in games. for a game like this, people basically want to live in hogwarts and feel like they are a student. but instead the game focuses on other stuff and doesnt give people the feeling they want.
>>749063701So let me see if i´m properly understanding you. No point system, no unregistered animagus mechanic, no infiltrating the restricted section at the library to learn secret spells, no quidditch, no diagon alley, no chamber of secrets and only the bare minimum classes? Wow. Good thing i didn´t fell for the hype. That sounds embarrassing. I just wanted the Hogwarts experience.
>>749064301You just have to prepare yourself to concede every post-marriage argument when Malfoid lifts up her shirt and shows the scars to remind you of what you did.And when the kids ask about momma's scares, she just playfully says "your father gave these to me"
Imagine getting cucked by a poojeeta
>>749064443Supposedly it's purposely stupid because Rowling wanted to mock cricket, which one of her ex-husbands was obsessed with. The more I learn about Rowling the more it seems she is fueled 100% by spite.
Harry Potter i am now a woman.
>>749064593>spit-trailFUCK
>>749063962>Persona but 6 fucking years worth of calendar dates>and the summer/winter vacationsFuuuuuuuuck
>>7490646726?
>>749064593I can see Malfoid as the one to initiate the first kiss.
"HARRY POTTER, YOU MADE MALFOID DRESS UP AS YOUR DEAD MOTHER AND HAD RELATIONS ON SNAPE'S DESK WHILE DRESSED UP AS YOUR FATHER. YOU PRANKED SNAPE BY YELLING 'YOU'LL NEVER HAVE THIS' ALL TO SKIP OUT ON ONE POTION CLASS? 500 POINTS GRYFFINDOR."
>>749064689Why stop at one year?
>>749064583>>749064584There's this split, that's only gotten bigger, in the Western AAA market, that Publishers and Developers have become too detached from their playerbase and now can't actually see what those players want anymore.Or depending on who you ask, don't want to anymore.
>>749064734but why would you do 6 instead of the full 7 years
>>749064623>Feminist icon JK Rowling fails the Bechdel test because she can't spot seething about the men in her lifePottery
>>749063701It's a garbage game that's also riddled with DEI shit but retards got gaslighted into supporting it because Rowling is anti-tranny while forgetting that she's still a raging feminazi and all around woketard who's only against trannies out of pure misandry and nothing else.But you only made this thread to spam fem Draco so here you go.
I wish suited Malfoid art was more common.
>>749064761Surely the finale has to say "fuck off" to the calendar system and just have you go AWOL to defeat the big bad.
>>749064758It has been a while, but didn't people find early on that there was tons of cut files and such in Hogwarts Legacy that pointed to the game having social systems that weren't implemented. It sounds like the developers had an idea of what people wanted, but then the publisher or director stepped in and had no idea what people wanted.
DUMBLEDORE, VERY CALMLY:“HARRY POTTER!DID YOU ASK MALFOID TO THE DANCE?!HER FATHER IS SO FUCKING PISSED!I HAVE NEVER SEEN LUCIUS MALFOY THIS ANGRY IN MY ENTIRE FUCKING LIFE!HE HOOKED DOBBY UP TO A CAR BATTERY AND A PINATA AT THE SAME TIME!THEN HE USED A TIME SPELL TO TURN SECONDS INTO HOURS!HARRY, I WALKED INTO THE ROOM AND HAD NO FUCKING IDEA WHAT I WAS LOOKING AT.DOBBY WAS JUST HANGING THERE, GETTING BONKED BY THE PINATA EVERY FEW SECONDS, WHILE LUCIUS WAS STANDING IN THE CORNER SCREAMING ABOUT THE MALFOY FAMILY HONOR.FUNNIEST SHIT I EVER SAW.I HAD TO LEAVE THE ROOM BECAUSE I WAS LAUGHING SO HARD.EVEN SNAPE WAS TRYING NOT TO LAUGH.AND THAT MAN DOESN’T EVEN FUCKING SMILE.BUT, HARRY…THIS ISN’T A JOKE.YOU ASKED DRACAENA MALFOID TO THE DANCE.YOU HAVE PROVOKED THE MALFOY FAMILY.YOU HAVE DISTURBED THE PEACE OF HOGWARTS.YOU HAVE CAUSED LUCIUS MALFOY TO COMMIT WHATEVER THE FUCK THAT WAS.THE MINISTRY IS PROBABLY GOING TO HEAR ABOUT THIS.THE DAILY PROPHET WILL HEAR ABOUT THIS.THE GOBLINS WILL PROBABLY HEAR ABOUT THIS.HELL, I WOULDN’T BE SURPRISED IF VOLDEMORT HEARS ABOUT THIS.I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND THE GRAVITY OF THE SITUATION.THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS MATTER.THEREFORE, AS HEADMASTER, I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO TAKE DISCIPLINARY ACTION.I HAVE CAREFULLY CONSIDERED YOUR ACTIONS.I HAVE CONSULTED THE PROFESSORS.I HAVE CONSULTED THE PORTRAITS.I HAVE EVEN CONSULTED THE FUCKING SORTING HAT.AND AFTER MUCH DELIBERATION…I HAVE DECIDED THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE…5000,000 POINTS TO GRYFFINDOR.NOW GO TO THE DANCE, HARRY.
>>749064510It should play out relatively the same, have her about to use a deadly spell before stopping herself at the last second only for Harry to accidentally nearly kill her, for maximum angst he ends up leaving a small scar on her face.
>>749064623she is the anti-Lucas.
>>749064623>I totally made the game retarded on purposeGiven what we know about JK now, it's kind of a miracle the books ended up as charming as they were
>>749064774
>>749064035MalfoidMalfoid M. Malfoy
>>749064618Sad!
>>749063701How do you even make a gameplay loop around attending class tho?
>>749063984>I suppose she decided to side with the hateful ones masking as supportive people.We are so deep into clown world that it's genuinely impossible to tell if this is witty irony or oblivious sincerity.
>Want to jerk off to genderbent porn>this has to be a political stance now
>>749064634way too young
>>749063701Don't you mean flick and a twist?
>>749064974Reminder that Harry is basically a nepobaby jock in hogwarts and Malfoid has all the reasons to want his pureblood cock.
>You wake up for the day>Solve Puzzles in Charm Class>Go outside for another Flying lesson.>Prank that Slytherin Girl during Muggle Studies>Lunch>Go to the Greenhouse and find out a Gryffindor has turned today's project into a boxing pine tree and it knocked out the teacher, cue boss battle.Kino.

>>749064950Has been for a decade, anon.Traps and tomboys; futa and gender bender. None of these are transgender and yet you'd be amazed at what gets claimed.
>>749064915Even assuming all combat were to be removed for the "pure" experience, you could very easily translate magic classes into minigames and puzzles, and then sprinkle in social sim aspects to round it all out.
Get this bitch away from me.Harry belongs to Ginny.
>>749064915Like Bully? One class in the morning, one class in the afternoon.
>>749064767>Rowling experienced domestic abuse during her marriage. Arantes said in June 2020 that he had slapped her and did not regret it.Based? She got with this guy because they both love Jane Austen books btw.
>>749065036"HARRY POTTER YOU LITTLE SHIT DID YOU STICK YOUR DICK IN THE GOBLET OF TSUNS," Dumbledore asked calmly.
>>749064618I like Crabbe and Goyle being simps instead of literal retard goons who go "Yes boss!"Yet another thing improved by making Draco a girl
>>749063935>>749064128
>>749063848>>749063912The first game did none of this and it still sold infinite copies. You guys are doing the same cope that Pokemon fans do, where they keep thinking "next gen they'll finally introduce a good story, better graphics, etc.". There's no incentive for them to do so. I guarantee you, HWL 2 will be the exact same game in terms of the overall game design (generic open-world ubislop), the only difference is that instead of the side content feeling AI-generated, it will actually be AI generated. It's a real shame, because it could be a truly special game if they put that extra effort in. But why would they? That doesn't generate extra value for the shareholders.
>>749063979who is she? does she have an accent?also I respond by doing it, obviously
>>749065049It's in E minor because she's a tsundere. Brilliant
>>749064583>>749064758If i had to guess i´d say they do know what hardcore fans want but they are always trying to fish for casuals as well so, in the end, they always end up playing things safe and trying to replicate success rather than taking any kind of risk. Simply put big budgets limit creativity too much.
>>749064915It's easy. Charms has puzzles and platformingPotions is memory puzzles and minigamesFlying is Racing segmentsMagical Plants is a farming simMagical Beasts is combat.
Cute hijinks
Are people actually drawing art like this not on a tablet and/or observing a screen but on their phones? And not even with a stylus but their fingers? Is that really a thing?
>>749065102This blowing up the way it did just cements how bad of a love interest Ginny was.
>>749063701Anyone that plays, watches or reads such shit deserves to be tortured to death.
>>749065102Maybe Ginny should’ve actually had more screentime and a writer that gives a shit about her.
>>749064276need her flashing panties at him doing this

>>749065135>same cope that Pokemon fans dopokemon fans have had nearly the exact same game for 18 years now anon relax
>>749064915Actually easier than you think. The Half-Blood Prince game had a fun minigame surrounding potions class. Just extrapolate that to all classes, the framework is already there with the existing in-game minigames.>Defense: Duels>Charms: That minigame with the balls and obstacles, forget what it's called>Transfiguration: A minigame where you control a creature moving through a course, and you have to shapeshift it to different animals to overcome different obstacles>Potions: Half-blood Prince minigame>Care of Magical Creatures: Standard beast-catching/taming minigame >Herbology: Light farm simObviously some classes aren't viable for this, you couldn't really do History of Magic of Divination>>749064950How much of an insane brainrotted loser do you have to be to look at a funny internet trend of drawing Draco Malfoy as a tsundere and think that it's some kind of political sign

I can't anymore anons. I'm so conflicted. I want to yearn but the recent stuff in the news and the way I've seen the women around me openly support child killers and false accusations has me dooming simultaneously as I yearn. We're never gonna have this in this life, are we? Fuck...
