I couldn’t agree with you more, the third trial is an absolute triumph! Did you ever play that game Ōkami? It reminded me a lot of that as far as the artwork and movement. I’m pretty deep into the game. I’ve put in around 82 hours and I think I have 5 main missions left to complete. I’ve enjoyed many of the companions missions as much as the main one. I admit, as soon as I was able to get the level 3 alohomora spell I kind of completely forgot about what I was suppose to be doing and went crazy unlocking all the floo flame locations and doing all the Merlin trails and treasure vaults and the townspeople's missions and hunting down field guide pages. When I finally got back to the main missions I was way overpowered for the enemies I had to fight! Lol! I’ve always thought that the mark of a great game is how easily you can get lost doing all the side stuff without ever thinking about the main story. That’s one of things I liked so much about the Fallout games. But the main story in Hogwarts Legacy is great also. I just hope that the ending can live up to how great the rest of the game is!

@Engineblow I did play Okami, and it was a really great game, especially the art design and painted aesthetic, so I can see what you mean there with the section feeling reminiscent of Okami

Regarding Hogwarts, I do agree that the game excels with side content and collectibles. It’s very easy to get distracted and lose a few hours flying around and messing around with extraneous activities. The story is pretty decent. Not the highest tier, but it’s good enough to feel satisfying in the end.

I may be wrong, but to me this feels like a potential franchise where they put in tons of work getting the graphics, mechanics, characters and ip just
