I'm not finished yet, but even though I am enjoying my time - I wished it was more immersive.

I often find myself walking around and appreciating the detail Hogwart and Hosgmeade has to offer. The feeling of just exploring the grounds of these locations is just amazing. Sadly, I wished the game focused more on the school events and house&rules mechanics that are in the books.
The games fails to give me a feeling of being a student at Hogwarts.

Pro’s:
- Great detail to famous locations.
- enjoyable combat.
- ability to create your own Character.
- fun diverse side quests.
- outfit designs are saved upon acquiring the item.
- some fun activities the player can participate in (sadly limited, and locked to side quests).
- mods to enhance your experience
- House specific quest and dialogue.

Cons:
- Sorting ceremony was way too short!
- reward system is bad. Final reward chest from puzzles or dungeons often gives worse rewards than random stashes of items.
- Difficulty felt too easy (on hard).
- Too many Auto-saves which makes dying irrelevant.
- Open world filler content is repetitive & boring but required to unlock upgrades (such as inventory space or power).
- Hogwarts isn't as mysterious or dangerous like in the books.
- AI within Hogwarts don’t have schedules and just despawn.
- lack of interactions with the surroundings.
- Too much freedom to the player which makes the Player Character feel like you aren't a student of Hogwarts.
(numerous of mentions in-game talk about rules, yet there is nothing to enforce them onto the player).

Third point also applies to other locations outside of Hogwarts. For example, If you enter the forbidden forest, you see many warning signs about how dangerous it is. Aesthetically it looks like a place you shouldn't enter, yet it's the opposite... It's far from 'dangerous'. As a fan of the movies, first thing I did was going into the Forbidden Forest. Expected to be punished and die by frightful monsters, but sadly that wasn’t the experience.

However, if Hogwarts Legacy 2 is made. Don’t make it bigger, but make it a more meaningful world, and closer to the books with events and consequences of your actions (rule breaking).

My hopes for HL2;
- If you go inside the forbidden forest or places within Hogwarts, make it dangerous and punishable if caught/die. There is an infirmary in the game, why not use it? You could tie the houses 'point system' to it.
- School rules apply for player (Curfew, forbidden forest, or forbidden ares inside of the school).
- As well as improving upon potion crafting & gardening mechanics. Kingdom Come Deliverance is a great example in how it should be done (waiting game is something I'd expect in mobile games, not PC games).
- I would make "room of Requirements" optional. Concept is nice, but I rather be designing or improving the Houses Common/bed rooms and be among other students that I can interact with.

It's fun to kill some time in due to the lack of other fps alternatives.
However, that fun got ruined by the Launcher and UI.

I ain't starting the game 3 times just to get int o DMZ & Warzone.

A Rhythm FPS gamer done well.
If you enjoy metal songs, this is great game.

The songs are very good and the game officially support modding. Unfortunately, it requires you to set a locked BPM, which is one downside of the game. If a song changes BPM, the game can not adapt. I'd love to see even more depth into modding the game, but this is the current limit of the game.

After clearing stages, you unlock Challenges. These Challenges unlock buffs to acquire higher combo's/higher scores.
These Challenge stages aren't as easy to complete (perhaps due to "Beast Mode"), so it's good fun when you do manage to clear a stage,

Amazing RPG game with surprisingly quite a lot of debt. During fights I had quite a hard time surviving against enemies who kill me within 2 shots, but the story and RPG elements made up for the challenging side of the game.

For who want to try out Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines, I suggest checking out the Community Mods on ModDB & Nexus. There are some big mods that enhances the gameplay (ex. I personally went for the Clan Quest mod that build & improves the story).

Warzone 2.0 Specific review:
The experience varies between players, and you should try it out yourself.
For me however, the game is poorly optimised and UI is a mess.


DMZ is a good addition to the game, and I'm enjoying it a lot more compared to BR.

Edit: The game is a good way to kill some time with the lackluster FPS genre. However, they ruined that with their MW3 release and its bad launcher.
I ain't starting the game 2 or 3 times just to enter DM&Warzone just to kill some time. If the game was really good, sure. However, with all its (micro)transactions that get spammed in your face, like some p2w mobile game, it's not worth that much dedication to start a game.

Great scary game, especially when played solo! For less than 10$ it's a steal.
When you play online, for the best experience, either play with friends or find lobbies through their Official Discord.

Easily one of the best Battle Royale games out there. Great game to play off and on.

In short, Warframe is a sci-fi based shooter that requires a lot of farming to unlock or craft a new "Tenno" (characters with special appearnace/abbility).
The story seems to have gotten better
