U cant change ur wand. Can change ur haircut later i think. Only things u are stuck wit are wand and house. U can add handles to ur wands to change them somewhat but the wood color and designs stay the same. Id say frick it, dont overthink it cuz u probably wont even notice much in game haha

Trying a workaround here. Requested a refund through Steam and downloading the deluxe version through Epic now. Had an old Rocket Leavue account there.

Game looks great, though the facial expressions of the protagonist are a little off for me. And apparently like a lot of people, I’m seeing some odd frame rate drops where my GPU usage falls through the floor. Hopefully we will have a driver/game update to sort those out soon.

This game is the epitome of me amassing my backlog. I just started ragnarok, decided I should buy red dead 2 for my laptop and all sorts of other games.

I played for 3 hours today and had no issues at all on Ultra.

I have a decently meaty rig, tho, so I suppose that could explain it.

For reference:
RTX 3080ti
Ryzen 9 5950x
32gb RAM

I didn't turn on RTX because that's what I've heard is causing some issues.

As for the game itself:

It's been a blast just running around Hogwarts doing little collection tasks and discovering different things. After seeing about 10 doors with numbers, pictures, and spinny wall dice I finally found the solution and was able to go back and open some of those doors. Felt pretty good.

Faces are kind of wonky, but so far that's my only complaint (I just made it do Hogsmeade).

I absolutely suck at creating a character.


Good news. The character creation is about as shallow as it comes. Just enough to wet your whistle, but not enough to get bogged down for an hour or two.

I've read that as well, but I want the RTX candy.

RTX 3080
Ryzen 5800x
32gb of 3800mhz 14-14-14-28 RAM.

The frame drops are odd. Literally single digits during the sorting hat cutscene, for example. 20's walking down the staircase from the Ravenclaw common room, etc. But I'll get 110fps+ in other parts of the castle with vastly more detail and space.

My big issue with creation is the super minimalist silhouette icons. I couldn't tell frick from them, especially with facial shape. Had to click on every one multiple times

I've not seen this anywhere else, but try capping your frames at 60 fps. Might stabilize you.

It's the Three Broomsticks owner

I'm so tired of this shite. Plus the first student you really meet is from Africa. Have to check those boxes though.

I met three kids in Ravenclaw. One was white as frick. One looked like a white/asian mix. One looked Arabic.

Nah, it's some kind of coding flaw. When it happens, my GPU wattage/usage falls through the floor. It's just some bugginess. I'm not worried about it, though. I'm sure it will get sorted.

Ridiculous. Stuff like this would turn me into a death eater. Any society that accepts mental patients as normal has to be the worse one.

Is this what happened when the trans character wore the sorting hat?

It amuses me that Cyberpunk 2077 had trans possible PC, trans NPC, all over the place, and no one gave a shite. One trans NPC in HL and it's the end of the fricking world
