But taking pride of place in the centre of my hate zoo (which, by the way, is not a nice place to visit) is the predictable, condescending response I get when I reveal my passion for gaming."
Shahmeer from eXputer: "I've always wondered whether the success of Hogwarts Legacy had much to do with nostalgia. The RPG is great but certainly not free of issues."
I totally agree, and no replay value for sure but enjoyed every minute I was playing it. Not a Harry Potter fan but still really enjoyed
I still haven’t finished it, mostly due to it not holding my interest after 20 hours. Wouldn’t say it’s a bad game, wouldn’t say it’s amazing I really can’t judge it fully due to not completing it.
Harry Potter is one of the biggest IPs in the world. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out why it sold so much. It’s a great game on top of that, so the math kind of maths here.
Can’t wait for the article on if Zelda or Mario only sold well due to nostalgia.
ngl, it got me in the first half hour
after that, a big let down, mediocre at every step
only fans are praising it
In what way was it mediocre, can't really find anything about it that was mediocre and I'm not a hp fan
It's still a good game almost time for a 2nd playthrough, the passion they put into it is🔥🔥 crazy how after a couple months or a year folks get to complaining about this n that about certain games smh childish mfs

Nobody should ever be ashamed of their love for the gaming medium
“First, the revenue angle. In fiscal year 2018 (which ended in the USA on June 30, 2018), Microsoft alone reported earnings of $10 Billion. That’s billion, with a capital B. And that’s Microsoft, whom we are led to believe have spent this console generation gazing wistfully at how well Sony are doing. Which, it must be said, is very nice indeed. Sony’s PSN generated $12.5 Billion in the 2018 financial year. For clarity, that’s the PSN store. Alone. Not consoles, not peripherals, not disk based sales. Just PSN. It speaks volumes that Microsoft’s $10 Billion suddenly looks tawdry by comparison.”
Idk how anybody can look at the industry leaders of this medium make so much and still believe that it caters primarily to children.
"Pet hates"? In my day, whipersnapper, we called them pet peeves.
