Slitherin is too nice

[Truen]

Honestly, if not for the colors the npc wear I'd have a great deal of trouble finding any differences at all between Griffindor and Slitherin characters. I think devs played it a little too safe with this game.

Ominus is kinda a ♥♥♥♥

[Akemua]

TBF, even in the books, not all of them were bad/♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. The only reason it seems so is because important characters that were antagonists to Harry were in the house.

That said, yes, I did expect more snide and condescending behavior.

[Steppenrazor]

everyone seems too nice.. its hard to be "evil" i guess using those unforgivable curses you eventually get are the extent of it.

my one real complaint...

[suksas]

Are they? Cause I keep hearing an occasional slytherin NPC in the backgrounds say some stuff that are not nice.

In general, being a ♥♥♥♥ isn't the reason they put you in slytherin. And prior to Voldemort, the house was fairly normal house with no dark past.

Author simply needed someone to play the villain in the books and given the recent world events plus general disposition of holier than thou that sometimes creeps into the house, an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ rich boy makes a cut.
The two bodyguards of tweedle Dee and twidle Dumb can be found in any house. They are not evil, just dumb.
Nancy is just a regular girl. Every house has those like her.

Look at Percy Weasley. Is he really any worse than Slytherins? The guy was willing to turn on his own family for a job at ministry.

Slitherin is a house for ambitious people who are supposed to be part of the elite in their active life (or come from elitist families)

That doesn't necessarily mean they are all a$$holes.

And the three Slitherins I have interacted with so far aren't exactly angels.
One practices forbidden curses, one has a very bad temper and is definitely an elitist, and the third was the third character I wanted to punch in the game.

"If you want to impress me", I don't want to impress you, I want to make you shut your trap and learn about humility.

Slytherin in Harry Potters time was corrupted by death eaters

People defending bad game design blows my mind. Slytherin was known for being egostic and hungry for power , ofc their people would look downwards to the other. Besides i dont know if you noticed but they dont even talk about people like half blood and ♥♥♥♥ because im sure devs would directly assume current society would apply it to our own political system(what is probably true)cause racims and ♥♥♥♥. Its just lame how everything is becoming less fun and more political. Only shows that people use that term to force their own mindset....

[ArchLobster]

This is because of the misconception that being ambitious is the same thing as being an awful person.

Of course, Draco and his ilk played their roles in the books and they were Slytherin. Big part of that idea.

You can be driven and ambitious and still have morals. They are not mutually exclusive.

Yes, in the Harry Potter timelime, where the Deatheaters all had their kids in that house, so that one day they could help take over the school. Not in the 1800's.

meanwhile there's that Hufflepuff that loves Black and tells him he hopes he kicks the mudbloods out of the school

Isn't Slytherin just meant for people who have ambition and seek power? That alone is not evil at all. You can use power for good.
It's just that villains of course always seek power, just for evil not good, and that's why the Hogwarts villains you see tend to be from Slytherin.
I haven't gotten too far into the game, but Sebastian, who's in Slytherin, keeps making comments about breaking rules, getting into trouble, avoiding detention, participating in secret forbidden duels, so I mean the "bad" guys are there.

Everyone in this game is too nice, Literally every character is unrealistically happy and cheerful 24/7 with constant big smiles and positive facial animations. Avalanche studios used to make budget disney games and knockoff children movie games like chicken little etc. I feel like it really shows in this game, they don't seem to be able to actually create characters with more than one emotion.

I understand harry potter is meant for a younger audience but as a long time harry potter fan now as an adult it feels way to childish and watered down compared to the later harry potter movies where everyone isn't constantly happy all the time. I mean there's dark wizards wandering around..

You do realize the evil nature in the game is your choices for your character. Do you give items back to people who lost them on a fetch quest?

Do you tell some kid to grow a spine and keep something they had you get because they couldnt?

Its YOUR actions that are evil or not. Not the NPC's in the game.

[Sneaky Fox]

I think they were bad during the time of James and Severus, and got worse when Voldemort reigned. I do not think they were this bad back then. plus the hole pureblood issue is not such a hot topic. Its more a human vs. goblin story and humans can stick together when they have a common enemy.

ive interacted with a few slytherin quest givers that are rude.. The broom girl comes to mind. Just because you are ambitious and clever doesnt mean you have to always be a douche
