I’m currently still playing it - just because I got it on PSN. I’m not at all into the Harry Potter lore, ok one boring weekend I watched the films and they are OK - but it’s not my kind of topic at all.
So as a non potter fan: The game is absolutely beautiful, combat is ok I agree but all those side quests are not creative, they are frequently boring - as in many meh open worlds. (I enjoy open world, Witcher 3, Horizon - much better)
I think Legacy had better followed a system like the modern God of War, where the story drives what you can access.
Because it’s so beautiful I explored the full map as soon I had a broom, so no there’s no sense of wonder having the story play in a new part of the map.
Having played far cry, I started taking out camps just for fun early - as soon you can get invisible you can just cheese a lot of the enemies. All that combat feels disconnected from the story, they could have just left it out.
Learning new spells in class is like cool on one hanf and feels like one of my nightmares where I’m back in school on the other. The tasks you need to complete for each, come one collect a potion buy some stuff - didn’t they have better ideas.
Probably a lot could have been made out of the school situation with all the shenanigans between pupils, but the game is so fucking politically correct they won’t even play pranks on each other.
We’re the teacher’s pet. Yaaawn. What about being on a mission while everyone sees you as a no good troublemaker?

Still overall a really OK game, but not great.
