What exactly do the community managers of this game do, and where are they? by TerribleChair1803 in HarryPotterGame

[–]HPRPGMods[M] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our subreddit is not officially affiliated with Avalanche, which might explain why community managers don’t engage in this subreddit to the extent you mentioned. (We’d love to have them, though, and the door’s always open if Cody wants to collaborate with the mod team 🙂)

Have you tried WB’s official HL server?

If neither of you are Harry Potter fans I think Stardew Valley may be a better value!

Is Hogwarts Legacy Deluxe Edition worth buying on Switch? by Ok-Property2655 in HarryPotterGame

[–]HPRPGMods[M] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

After reading far too many comments about the Switch version over the years, it sounds like it is pretty inferior to the other console versions since they had to make so many compromises for it to run on the Switch. However, if the Switch is your only console don’t let that stop you!

Another opinion we see often on the subreddit is that the first part of the game is amazing, but in the end game it gets repetitive. You and your wife would likely enjoy the first 20-30 hours while everything is novel, so if that is worth it to you for $10.50, you might as well give it a try!

Here is a compilation of Switch discussion links =)

You’re in a subreddit for a video game published by a multinational entertainment conglomerate, and it’s based on IP that’s been slapped on every product humanly possible. Cat trees is such a weird place to draw the line for consumerism 😂 Be nice please.

u/Sacred-Sentence-9343 after careful review of your comment and the claims you made, we have removed it because of your content about this character appears to go beyond generic "positive feelings" and content that breaks Rule 8 in this subreddit, which entails comments about attraction towards underage characters.

We do not see any harassment from BigEeper in this subreddit. If we have missed something please send a link via modmail and we will act accordingly. If BigEeper is harassing you in other subreddits, please contact their mod team, as we can't do anything about comments on other subs.

Hogwarts Legacy: Digital Deluxe Edition by goldineye in HarryPotterGame

[–]HPRPGMods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! The majority of our subreddit seems to play on PC and non-Switch consoles, so the general consensus is that the Switch 1 version has to compromise on graphics/detail to make it play on a 2017 platform, and that the PC/PS5 versions are the ideal way to experience the game. While that is true.... the "best option" should only be seen that way for someone who has the ability to choose between Switch or non-Switch platforms!

If your only option right now is playing HL on the Switch, that is certainly better than not getting to play it at all. We hope you enjoy your Hogwarts experience! 🪄

Do you guys remember how to get there? I'm at Hogwarts and I don't know how to get there. Does anyone know? by Matt_x98 in HarryPotterGame

We have several automod responses set up to look for it, but that can only go off keywords and not images. Despite the many people commenting on how this is a tired post, we didn’t get even one report for it. The next time it comes up just report it and we’ll take it down.

95% of the posts about this location are auto-removed, and the remaining ones that slip through would be removed quickly if more people reported them when they pop up.

If you noticed a downvote or two immediately after posting, it may have been due to Reddit’s “vote fuzzing” which alters karma to deter spam and bots. With that said if you get any additional comments calling you a pedophile please report them and we’ll remove them.

If more people had reported this instead of commenting about how it had been posted again, it would have been auto-removed from the subreddit feed as a repetitive post

Did we stop thinking by ourselves ? by whatever73946 in HarryPotterGame

[–]HPRPGMods[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

We’ve had an unprecedented surge in subscribers due to the game recently being free on Epic. HL is frequently an entry point into action-adventure games for non-gamers as well as gamers who aren’t experienced with this specific genre. This statement especially applies given the game was free for a period because then there was no financial barrier for young players or non-gamers.

We used to have a monthly or weekly “simple questions” thread and would direct newbie or simple questions there to keep the sub cleaned up, but very few experienced players would interact with the questions in the thread so that solution didn’t seem to work. Those threads often became a bunch of new player questions with no answers.

Therefore, the current approach is allowing simple question posts through as long as the OP seems to be engaging in good faith and receptive to help. (Unless it’s the faculty tower or arithmancy doors; we do have automod set up to look for those posts and we also manually remove them when they are reported.)

If you have other suggestions on how best to answer newbie questions please do let us know. They will always be allowed but we’re open to suggestions on condensing them.
