Its open world map absolutely nails the vibe of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, it has spellcasting combat that’s stupefyingly good, the characters that inhabit it are charming and unforgettable, and it is positively brimming with countless diversions to soak up dozens of hours of your time. With Hogwarts Legacy, I’m happy to say that we finally got a Harry Potter game that captures some of that magic. But none of these has come close to fulfilling that fantasy of receiving a Hogwarts admission letter that opens the door to a secret world.
In that time, we’ve gotten some respectable LEGO Potter games, an underwhelming EA Sports Quidditch game for some reason, and even suffered through the fevered nightmare that is Harry Potter Kinect. This is wouldn’t be that much of a problem for a lot of people, but the fact that these checks are done randomly and sometimes as frequently as 30 seconds between each check make it entirely annoying.Like many, I’ve been waiting for a truly excellent Harry Potter game since I was in the third grade. Should they not have an active internet connection at the moment, the game would automatically close and boot you out to the desktop, refusing to launch again until a verification can be made. Since the PC version of Hogwarts Legacy comes packed with Denuvo to stop piracy, players on said platform are now subject to random verification requests from the system. Without going any further, the controversy that has raged around Netflix is due, in part, to a confusion that suggested the use of DRM on the streaming platform. It is common to see it in online video games, which is why the vast majority of players complain when it appears in a single player experience. The fact that many companies bet on the use of this technology usually generates discomfort among users, since any of its forms end up imposing a requirement that people consider unpopular: the need for a mandatory internet connection. It is a protection system that we have seen in numerous titles (on PC the use of Denuvo as an anti-piracy measure). It is a term that is also applied to other forms of digital entertainment, since the acronym DRM means Digital Rights Management.
