Hogwarts Legacy | Map Design Done RIGHT

Great Stuff, as always!

Hogwarts is too small and alot of nothing lots of empty rooms filled with stairs

Such a detailed world building by the developers. I just wish they started it with Unreal Engine 5 instead of UE 4. It would have been even more awesome. Perhaps they can re-master it in UE 5 and make it even more spectacular.

140 hours, still finding something new

damn Ravenclaw common room

SURFSHARK BOMB lol

This kinda makes me wanna play it

One of the greatest, and most detailed, games I've ever played. Even with the weird hiccups in the fps (on PC). The design of the environments is absolutely stunning. Added to that, it's actually using some of the most beautiful locations in the UK as inspiration. It's supposed to be Scotland, but it has many, màny elements of Devon and the Lake District in it. (For those that want to 'feel' the Harry Potter world for realz, I'd suggest a trip to Devon, and the region around Watersmeet in particular. ( Advantage compared to Scotland in summer: WAY less Knuts/Mosquito's.. 😋 )
Oh.. and I néed that free flying 'drone cam' plugin... 
One tiny caveat with the game when You really want to role-play and immerse Yourself : You can pet all the cats.. but You cannot sit.. ànywhere. Wasted opportunity. Inviting chairs, even love seats, and benches in all shapes and sizes.. but You Just. Can. Not. Sit on them.. (I'm not the only one grumbling about that, mind You.. :P ) My hope is for a handy modder to get that flaw fixed. They did it for GTA5...

I am still waiting to get my hands on this game. Till then i am busy playing the 9 Harry Potter games.

I wasn't expecting BadgerGoodger... Amazing. Why isn't he mentioned in title

Avalanche - "So, exactly how hard are you going to convince people to play our game?"
This guy - "YES!"
Still, he's not lyin. It's simply amazing!

Sounds like an awesome real estate promotional video 😂

I think they really nailed Hogwarts in the game. It´s a perfect mix of the different movie versions, the books and some own designs and yet it really feels like Hogwarts, like how it should be and it gives the warm and homely feeling of the first films. It´s so detailed and I love spending time there. Probably the best and most detailed version we have ever gotten of Hogwarts.

Woah, why your voice is more deeper now??

There is nothing right with this map design.
Paid content.

This video is insanely good. I didn't want it to end!

This map is the closest thing to a “perfect map” since RDR2

The grand staircase tower was a little disappointing only having the top accessible, there are many windows on the tower leading you to believe there are rooms but the core of the tower is just the staircase

I think the Castle in Hogwarts Legacy is somewhat too “whimsical and a little silly and Tacky”. Yes it’s amazing and beautiful in many parts, but it needs to be more grounded and Romanesque/Gothic in Design and less so Disney Castle. I like the design from the Films(3-6 really) for the castle. I also didn’t like the redesign of the great hall and that stupid extra foyer.

The only thing I would change on the castle design is the windows. It needs more clear glass to open it up. The books mention Harry looking out the windows on a number of occasions. Also with this castle being completely open and not a loaded zone, like we always had in the past, it would be perfect to show that off by being able to look outside. The top room of the headmaster’s area is a perfect example of this. It has a wonderful view of the surrounding countryside from inside. More areas could benefit from this. I love the stained glass but some clear here and there would have helped a lot.

horrible accent...

It's such a shame that the NPC interaction doesn't match up with the castle itself

Can we get the other voice back??? this ones extremely professional but the videos are not nearly as entertaining. PLEASE BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL CREATOR'S VOICE

this video on so few views is a travesty

The most unbelievable thing in the whole franchise is the fact that hundreds or even thousands of students sleep in the same school together and NOT EVEN one girl shows up pregnant.
Do you mean to tell me that they're ALL virgins and NO ONE is focking IN THE WHOLE SCHOOL?
This is more unbelievable than any magic in the whole series.

It's a true Legacy of Hogwart.

Amazing video and analysis
Thank you ❤️

According to leaks, they were planning on making the map even bigger. The leaker suspects that the extra map parts might be sold as a dlc

Good to see badger goodger

Love your videos.
Just wanted to say that you talked about a specific location that you would only visit in the game if your character is a Hufflepuff. It would have been nice to put a Spoiler warning before that, as it would help people who have not played the game (like me) yet to skip that section.
Apart from that, we have only visited the Gryffindor common room and once the Ravenclaw common room in the Harry Potter books, so seeing the other common rooms in this video also was a Spoiler for me.

Wow man I love what you’ve done with your voice

Did ANYBODY play the Order of the Phoenix game? It was one of the best games from my childhood. I'm still fascinated by how much detail they have packed in a game from 2007 that ran on a PS2 when the PS3 was already out.

The map is good enough but they should of Added London tho

Bruh that was the smoothest sponsor transition ive ever seen. I was wondering where the hell this argument point was gonna lead to. I was not disappointed

Yeah but the game is boring as fuck 🤦🏿 and let me tell you I grew up with Harry Potter I read every book, have every game and every movie.

It has that charming of Skyrim environment and it can truly beat Skyrim.

The thumbnail made this video much worse of an experience to watch.

Definitely gonna be a contender for goty

Why does this guy talk like he’s announcing dancers at a gentlemen’s club?

We NEED a Lord of the Rings game made by this team.

I'm playing on ps5 and I feel like although Hogwarts is a labyrinth, it's still too small. The rooms need to be expanded quite a bit, the castle from the outside needs to be enlarged quite a bit. Hogsmead needs to be more alive with more buildings and a lot more NPCs walking around, same with Hogwarts... there aren't nearly enough students walking around, running to classes, professors leading their classes out for activities around the castle, etc.
As a whole the game is missing a grand and huge scale feel of Hogwarts and it's areas outside of the castle and the world don't feel alive at all.
It's like an early 2010's RPG with a 2020's paint job.

The map looks awesome just want them to add more interactivity into the world.

Can u do a similar video about elden ring's map?

This is what people think Rockstar do.. but they don’t actually do it

This video actually makes me want to play the game. There's actually shit to do!

I don't understand why you and other people find this game so extraordinary and unique, to me it's just like every other game that came out in the last 10 years. The quest design is generic, the rpg elements are generic, the world map with markers and other points of interest is generic, the mini map in the corner of the screen telling you which way to go and many other generic mechanics. People are crazy over this game just because it has a Harry Potter skin on it
