    This game is pretty good. Basically, it’s set hundreds of years before Harry Potter, but it feels like a similar world. If you like HP but want something fresh, it’s a good pick since it’s absolutely it’s own game (different lore, familiar world).

    I’m playing it with my kids, and we have separate characters. It’s getting a little old at this point (I’m almost 30 hours in), but there are still curveballs even this late into the game.

    Definitely check it out if you’re a HP fan. Some downsides though:

    • without quiddich, the broom is kinda boring; I only use it to unlock fast travel destinations
    • somewhat unstable on my system (Linux), and often crashes if I play >2 hours; might be an issue w/ Wayland or KDE 6, not sure
    • combat gets pretty repetitive, but my character is about to be OP so clearing out repetitive enemies should become pretty fast

    All in all, it’s fun and well balanced IMO.
