I've seen 2 of the movies and read zero books. I'm having a blast playing the game. I may miss some of the nods to the other content but it's not taking away any from my enjoyment of the game.

Wait for sale! This game is decent for Harry Potter fans but it's generic action open world game.
It's decent for open world if you like BOTW it got some puzzles but too easy and copy paste. The is like theme park Open World design with Harry Potter world.
Combat is decent but not challenging. It suffers Terrible Open World AI design where AI have pathfinding issues like getting stuck on terrain.
Main Story is generic RPG story.
Few Side quest and some main quest are decent the rest are too generic.
It has some generic barebones RPG mechanics.

Choosing House doesn't matter in the game it's like Cyberpunk choosing your prologue but generic. Also your Character doesn't have any background it's personality affect what House you choose like Cyberpunk.

Yes! Support the devs. I would love more single player games to be made, with no MT and other nonsense.

If your only requirement is to find a good game, with no specific needs then yes - HL is a great purchase. It's one of the highest quality triple A games to be released in a while. It's very similar to The Witcher 3, only the combat is much, MUCH better. The environmental design is also better. (note that the Witcher 3 is an old game by now however)

There are some things the game does very poorly however. The RPG elements are non-existent, at most causing some branching results in very specific quests. Most dialogue options are an illusion. The game is also very easy without self imposed rules and the puzzles are kindergarten tier difficulty. Some of the filler content you can find across the overworld are extremely bland, especially the dungeons.

You aren't into Harry Potter, but watched all the movies several times. That does not compute. Not to worry, Harry isn't in the game (thank God), so what you have is a fun fantasy game. You don't need to know anything about Hogwarts World. Everything is explained within the game.

Aside from Hogwarts castle, and a bunch of kids flying around on brooms, it's not like the films. It's more like a video game.

They have poachers running around that you have to kill. And goblin miners. And a source of magic that needs to be stopped.

The game is very well done, aside from the writing.

You'd have fun playing it. I had fun with it, and I can't stand the Harry Potter books and films.

Just make sure that you have a powerful computer. Otherwise, you'll be in the complaint department with the rest of the lot.

In my opinion it is. Im not a fan of HP world but nevertheless I have lot of fun. Also some parts of the game like simply walking around Hogwart might be a lot of fun. I bought the game in preorder and I do not regter this - and believe me my steam library has quite a lot of positions which I often wonder why the hell I bought them for...

Better than most game out there, not at all on par with Skyrim, TW3 or Elden ring. Still pretty decent, lot of lore.

Definitively lot more enjoyable if you like the HP universe (which is a cool one, even if you didn't read/watch HP that much, if you feel drawn by the universe, it's worth buying it, else wait for sale, it still a good game).
