Unusual Robe Question??

[Deamo]

I’m not a big Harry Potter fan only watched some of the movies and iv never read the books so I don’t know if this has been mentioned but my question is this.
In Hogwarts legacy when meeting the members of our respected house I noticed that all the students have 3 black stripes on the arms of their Robes but we only have 2 why is this?

Maybe a fail design wise, since students clothes are probably made as "one piece" while the player is using a "layered system", they could have two artists on working on the clothes, one for the player and the other for NPCs, creating differences between them, or the Student clothes are part of an older equipement concept from the game that could have been cancelled and they reused those assets for NPCs

There are about eight different variants of the school robes which you can get in game. The one worn by most of the NPCs is one of them. (There's another that has the three stripes but in color and higher up the sleeve, another that only has one stripe, one that has the one stripe and a hem stripe on the robe itself, one with a tassel on the hood, etc.)

For some reason the game starts you with a different one, though.

Nope, they're made in two pieces just like we are (clothes and then robe). As mentioned, the robe the NPC students wear is one of several variants of the school robes you can use. It's just (for some reason) not the one you get as default.

---------------------

There's also about thirty or forty other robes / cloaks / capes that are available to players.

In the books and films, the students were expected to wear the robes (and uniforms underneath) in all classes (except Beasts and possibly Flying), to meals in the Great Hall, and when travelling to and from the school. Street clothes were allowed at other times (and in Beasts and possibly Flying classes).

In respect of that, I've kept my character in a school robe all the time, with street clothes underneath, but that's up to you.

I am aware of all the different robes in game my question is why does the verry first set of robes the game gives you have 2 black stripes on the sleeve and every other student in the same year have 3?

Because for some reason the set you're given by default is not the same set the other students have.

And that is my question. Now does anyone kindly have an answer please?

Because while you enter as a fifth year you are so in name alone? The player character is -not- a real fifth year, the reason for the additional lessons to catch up and so on. Perhaps we start with robes to reflect our real status? I mean, ain't no reason to be robed as a fifth year without having any idea how to ride a broom starting off.

After what happened in the beginning, Fig hurriedly transforms your clothes into the robes you are wearing so you can attend the house assignment ceremony, and assumedly missed that detail. I think it's a nice touch, myself.

Have you a screenshot of the robe? i haven't found the one with two black stripes, all of the ones i found were either 3 stripes, or a big stripes with golden countours or double golden stripes, never found a double black stripes one, but well, it didn't bother me much to be honnest, i based my "One piece" hypothesis based on many other games where NPCs used clothes that were not usable by the player, usually made differently than the player equipement

Yes the distinguished school robes. That's what I wear all the time. I think they're cool looking.
