I long for that week I had covid. I managed to play so much. Being ill is the only way I'll get to play for more than an hour now.

Yeah it was the highlight of 4 months off with torn shoulder ligaments for sure. starting to get pain in that shoulder again but I'm almost out of sick pay so that's an issue!

Does anyone else's series x sound like a jet engine playing this? Nope it's whisper quiet as usual. This score has to be one of the best gaming soundtracks ever. If I hadn't googled it I would have thought they got John Williams back to do it. It's a brilliant mix of using the original movie beats mixed with sprinkles of the original Jurassic park. It's brilliant.

Yeah, I agree, I noticed them weaving in the classic jingle also, and it worked well.
My X is also whisper quiet.
So far my only real complaint (ignoring the pop in / texture streaming), is it feels like it's all a bit too zoomed in. Need a fov slider?
Ive just done the intro to Hogsmeade and I get now what every body was saying about the setting. It's actually better than in the films. The school feels a more appropriate size for it being the only wizarding school in the country.

I keep trying to play more of this but my kids keep hogging the Series S & X we have to play Roblox together.
What's the etiquette for telling your own children to fuck off so you can have some play time too?
Also, Series X quiet here too.

Right. It's 6 o clock... Better get in your jammies ready for bed.

Where are you?
I'm about to do school run and then I think I'll be a sloth and play this rather than sort the house.

I am getting some slowdown on my series X, which I am surprised at. I totally agree with the need of a slider, the camera is to close to old Duffers Potter's head! Is anyone else already thinking about QOL/sequel ideas

Is anyone else already thinking about QOL/sequel ideas The sequel absolutely needs a better story, better writing and engaging characters. An actual morality system would be nice too. The loot system is a bit pants too, one of those games where there's just random scarves and hats in completely illogical locations. I'd rather you just craft or buy all your gear and find money, spells, crafting components in chests. Other than that they've done an astonishing job. 40 hours in and still blow away by the world they've created.

This is a big game, and I’m kinda getting bored a bit now. Wanna move on to something a bit faster paced.

I wish all the main stories trials had been something creative like the 3rd one.

Still playing it after 60 hours - not bored as I haven't discovered everything it has to offer. It's a lovely world just to get lost in.

Let's hope that JKR doesn't get paid royalties by units sold then...

They're building a Harry Potter attraction down the road from us, and I'd kinda assumed it was a bit late, what with the last movie being 12 years ago and the Fantastic Beasts movies being shit. Clearly I'm a fool and there's still a massive market for Harry Potter stuff.

After playing the game my friend's daughter is now well into the franchise and is working her way through the films and books.

It will run so badly that you won't have to worry about that.
