On a similar note, many of the main Hogwarts characters have surnames that are familiar to Harry Potter fans. Like when I went into the Slytherin girl's bathroom and discovered a snake etched into the sink or when I went into a different girls' bathroom and discovered what looks to be Polyjuice Potion brewing behind one of the stalls (lots of things happen in magical bathrooms apparently). I can't even tell you how many times I caught myself smiling as I came across a familiar location or a cheeky bit of text that mildly foreshadows events that won't happen at the school for over 100 years yet. Hogwarts Legacy and the magic of nostalgia Once a set of main quests are completed something like a new chapter starts with additional main quests and side quest challenges. Completing the main quests not only furthers the main plot but unlocks spells and experience points that help make it easier to explore. There are typically two to five main quests at a time with plenty of NPC side quests. When it comes to the main plot and quests, Hogwarts Legacy allows players to do exactly what the magical students are known for: Make friendships, learn powerful spells, discover secret passageways, collect magical creatures, and enter extremely dangerous situations in order to take down an evil band of magic wielders. What‘s more, the game manages to do this while offering a really good balance of open-world exploration, meaningful progress, and captivating story. Thankfully, pressing a specific button while hovering over a quest brings me to the proper location on the map that I need so I don't have to go searching for it. Because of this, finding out where I need to go for a quest can be confusing. There are three maps: Hogwarts, Hogsmeade, and World Map. The castle feels HUGE and it's easy to get lost in its labyrinthine layout, but helpful Floo Flame locations allow me to fast travel to areas that I have been to already.
Thankfully, the game allowed me to go wherever I wanted almost immediately after the opening Sorting Hat ceremony. While the opening cutscenes laid the groundwork for the game's overall plot and hidden mysteries I was initially more interested in exploring the world on my own and ditching out on classes. These clothing choices make my character stand out more but also have a more functional purpose which I'll get into later. A wide assortment of robes, hats, gloves, scarves, outfits, and eyewear eventually become available. I was a little unimpressed with some of the hair options at the start of the game, but was happy to find that there are additional hairstyles awaiting at Madame Snelling's Tress Emporium in Hogsmeade, which can be accessed early on.
HOGWARTS LEGACY FOR PC SKIN
Some of these choices can be changed after the game starts such as hairstyle and eye color, but it seems others like voice, dormitory, and skin tone cannot be altered once the game begins. Then I got to give my character a name and select whether I'd be in the Witch or Wizard dormitory. Additionally, I got to choose between two voices, each with five different pitch options, which I appreciated. At the start of my adventure, I was able to choose the face shape I wanted from a list of possible options and then customize skin color, hairstyle, hair color, eye color, eyebrow shape, eyebrow color, and facial markings. While not the most intensive character creator out there, Hogwarts Legacy does offer many customization options.
