Geoff Keighley (via Variety): A sequel to Hogwarts Legacy is now in production and a 'very big priority'

Looking forward to how WB manage to fuck this one up.



I mean, the game is full of stuff that people online would normally complain about being woke. From a major side character being trans to 1800's Hogwarts having 10X more diversity than 1990's Hogwarts. It's just that no one cared because the entire discussion focused on how playing the game was upsetting Resetera.
The diversity didn't feel forced and felt inclusive (ie not replacing existing characters with race and gender swaps but adding on to the people there) not excluding. I never finished the game but 1 trans character, if not made like dragon age where that is all they are, or if skippable who cares. It's when they force it on you, ala Viel guard that is when its shit.
 
I hope they dig even further into the exploring aspects and we get to explore even more of Hogwarts now, with richer and deeper interactions, more secrets, more involvement, more everything. They could play more with time of day too.
 
Makes sense that they would prioritize development on a game that might help dig the game division out of the hole that Suicide Squad put them in.

I think the question will be if they can keep the focus and "completeness" of the first game and avoid the GaaS temptation.
 

EDMIX

Writes a lot, says very little
Keep the live service garbage out of it and it'll be a 'very big success'.

Lets hope.

If its really some live service type game, i'm not buying it.

I got the first day 1, but I can drop this series as easily as it was picked up lol
