![]() ![]() 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. 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. Professor Binns could also start out alive at the beginning of Hogwarts Legacy and become a ghost during the game. Even if Professor Binns died further in the past, there could be more revealed about this character and his unknown origins in Hogwarts Legacy.While not the most intensive character creator out there, Hogwarts Legacy does offer many customization options. ![]() It's possible that Professor Binns died just before the game starts, and that some of the characters in Hogwarts Legacy may have information about his life or how he reacted to dying. Professor Binns died in his sleep one night and then woke up to teach his class as if nothing happened. Since Hogwarts Legacy players start off in their fifth year, it's possible that their classmates might have known Professor Binns while he was alive. ![]() Professor Binns may also play a similar role to his part in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by revealing some ancient Hogwarts secret or an old myth of magic. If attending History of Magic is part of Hogwarts Legacy, then Professor Binns could potentially reveal important backstory for the events in the game, or even new information about a much earlier wizarding community. During the State of Play, it was shown that one of the goblin rebellions occurs during Hogwarts Legacy, so Professor Binns could be a source of information about earlier rebellions and their outcomes. Since players will have a part to play in a goblin rebellion in Hogwarts Legacy, paying attention to Professor Binns in History of Magic could provide some key information. ![]()
