My personal favorite game that can only be matched by Witcher 3. The game exploits well known mechanics like floo flames, which are very similar to towers in Assassin's Creed; points of interest of different kind, but the main difference from other games, here they've managed to reach exceptional quality. In each location, would it be the main castle, the forest, or any hamlet village outside, I could feel the vibes of Harry Potter movies and book series. The details of environment are absolutely charming and the characters in your quest conversations look real and alive. Some emotions of sensation might be hard to express in words, so I recommend to try out Hogwarts Legacy and see it for yourself.

Game crashes too often with no error message, just freezes and not responds. And you get the message upon entering the game that you exit the game incorrectly.

Update: After 30+ hours the controls with the gamepad still feels terrible. The movement+any other assigned command on LS just causes you to mess up any strategy. Default controls has Crouch on LS press, which in case of mounted fight results in an accidental dismount, after several tests and reassigns, decide to remove Crouch command from the gamepad and use it from a keyboard instead.

Overall the game feels too poor in terms of quality, needs polishing and fixes. It makes you feel the pain not because it's a Souls game, but because FromSoftware made it worse then DS3.
