just a reminder

[󠁳 ⁧Walter White Yo]

this is a live service, the game is online only and requires a Internet connection to play even if it is listed as "single player"

Yes, Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions requires an internet connection to play."

This deserves to be spammed with "Extra Helpful"

So if the game fails and they close the servers you won't even be able to play the PvE mode they so heavily pushed lol

[Hi Im Swat]

Eh, don’t care. It’s still going to be an amazing game

[Soulphia]

its not that big of a deal for $40 nor do i think this game will fail tbh, sure the 3v3 mode might seem weird at first and may take some time getting used too, but i don't thinks its gonna be too bad, unless the bots are just REALLY bad. Concerning the singleplayer mode, in my case i'll probably only beat it once.

its a free game at best.... it will be full of DLC and battlepass content like rocket league and most other games these days... I'm waiting for the Hogwarts modders to do it for free in Hogwarts legacy

They already made it clear there's no Microtransactions or battlepass content.

Let's focus on the REAL issues instead of made up lies, please. Complaining about things that are entirely made up is not how you force producers to make better products, it only proves that the consumers are genuinely stupid enough to fall for and pay for anything.

It's always interesting to see how different people read things differently.
You have to read between the lines.

"There are no plans to include microtransactions in the game at this time. "

I can assure you that someone will get those "plans" inside of their thoughts pretty quickly.

I understand this is a big issue for some people who may not have consistent internet connection, but to 99% of Steam gamers it's not an issue outside of rare ISP issues and power outages.

That's not the issue people worry about though.

aaron's comment summed it up pretty well:

When WB shuts down the service, the entire game will be gone.

I agree with you. At some point this game is likely to turn into a free to play game with a battle pass and other micro transactions. I don't see how continued support would be possible long term otherwise. I have no problem with the initial cheap purchase price or the potential for them adding paid cosmetics later on. My only concern for the game right now is if it's fun. So far the pricing isn't close to as greedy as 90% of games coming out now days.

That's a fair concern with any live service game. I certainly hope that the game gets the support from fans and devs to continue for a long time. I know there are recent legal arguments and bills in support of stopping game devs from closing servers and ending games by blocking fans from continuing the online ablility through 3rd party servers. I'm fully in support of modders removing the DRM and hosting 3rd party servers for games that no longer have developer support in those situations.

Yeah same. I'm also in support of that. But i also already heard loopholes that will be used to counter a possible new law in regards to that.

Once a publisher closes the servers, they will immediately stop selling the game and deactivate every redeemable serial key, so that only the current playerbase is able to continue playing.. And since modders are only able to host new servers according to that law, obtaining a game not directly from the publisher is still illegal, and because of that the game can only lose players, and not gain players anymore.

We will see what happens. Let's just hope this game pops off like crazy,

Who doesn't have an internet connection these days? If you're outside just use your phone's mobile network. Are you people still living in the year 2000?
