About this Game:
Hogwarts Legacy is an immersive, open-world action RPG set in the world first introduced in the Harry Potter books. Now you can take control of the action and be at the center of your own adventure in the wizarding world. Your legacy is what you make of it. Live the Unwritten.
The wizarding world awaits you. Freely roam Hogwarts, Hogsmeade, the Forbidden Forest, and the surrounding Overland area.
Learn spells, brew potions, grow plants, and tend to magical beasts along your journey. Get sorted into your house, forge relationships, and master skills to become the witch or wizard you want to be.
I've put almost 20 hours into the game with a 5700 XT and can count on one hand how many times I have noticed "pop-in textures", playing on "High" settings (chosen by the game's benchmark) and 1080p. You can absolutely play any of those listed titles with 8 GB VRAM after a few performance patches they've all received by now.
Yeah, what a joke it wont even run on my 3dfx Voodoo!!
Definitely don't need to 'hold out'. You can 100% play the game on lower settings lol.

This game starts out strong. I felt like the best part was when you're exploring the castle and taking classes. The world itself felt tacked on like they ran out of budget. I was never compelled to finish it.
The game is really well made in many ways but ultimately I lost interest after 30ish hours and never picked it back up. I didn't care for the main storyline and the combat got tiring and ultimately I just realized I wasn't having fun playing the game anymore.
Also the lack of any multiplayer at all really killed replayability for me, as well as the fact that your decisions make no difference to the plot so there's really no reason not to learn all of the unforgivable curses.
Had the same experience as you. Was very into the world at first, but after the 25-30 hour mark, it started to feel repetitive and boring. The story, imo, really lacked any luster and the characters didn't captivate me at all. Multiplayer would have been a nice touch to keep playing.
i have a 6750 xt, been playing this game a lot with my 9 month son. right now sitting at 28 hours. only problem is, he likes to hit the keyboard when we are getting into battles. so although i do have gameplay issues it has nothing to do with my gpu.
it's kind of insane how many different "things" you can do in the game. like randomly collecting "magical beasts" in your secret zone and then harvesting their fur, in order to update your clothes? that's kind of insane lol. i was kind of impressed with the fighting system, it reminds me a lot of dark souls 3? also the plot is actually somewhat good. sometimes i get stuck on dumb things though, but i don't restrict myself from google so that isn't a big issue.

Ty both. Everyone I know who got it similarly lost interest pretty quick. Was wondering if perhaps it got better but doesn't sound like it. Saved me some money!

At the very least, I think I'll wait until it drops under $30. That seems like it'll be the sweet spot for me.

That is what he said.'subpar' experience.
Certainly don't need above 8gb unless you're running 1440/4k. My 3070 is 8gb and got 100fps on high settings in 1080p.
