Hogwarts Legacy quick review
I would never expect a game such as this to be anything nearly as good as it actually is. I would put it in a category of games such as Witcher, Mass Effect and Skyrim, but one level below these legendary games overall. Being a fan of Harry Potter universe helps a lot to enjoy…
