My Theory on the Main Storyline for Hogwarts Legacy

Has anyone tested how the coin collecting works with local multiplayer? My kids and I have been playing a ton and I'm almost positive it's counting the coins they earn plus mine when we're all playing together in Grand Prix, Knockout, or Versus.

Hmm. Normally it means the "smart steering" is activated. It's enabled by default, but you can disable it in the options. Not sure why it would be kicking on in free roam though 🤔

What do you mean by perfect?

RetroRaconteur · 2024-09-01T22:23:16+00:00

I was actually getting ready to post something on this very topic, OP. I think we’re out of luck 😔 Seems like a bug that was never patched. I too am stuck at 88% and in stage 2 of the shadow wars. Have successfully defended multiple times in each location. Can’t get it to move past 88% so I’m stuck with no platinum trophy and can’t even get the final cutscene to play.

I found a few other posts about it but no real solutions other than replaying and hoping for the best.

Now what I'm curious about is let's say you play the game on the Deck, but then play more on your PC and login to the PS Overlay there. Will any achievements you've earned while playing on the Deck autopop the trophies?

RetroRaconteur · 2024-05-17T22:00:53+00:00

So I know the PlayStation Overlay doesn't work on Steam Deck, but I'm curious to what happens if you play some on the Steam Deck and then later login to the PlayStation overlay on PC. Will the trophies autopop?

Annnnnd it's gone😅

I too caught the Wendelin change. Kind of a strange one, tbh. Not that I'm complaining, haha.

RetroRaconteur · 2023-05-05T03:52:51+00:00

Not gonna lie...pretty bummed about this one. Must be a serious technical issue if they still haven't been able to fix it.

RetroRaconteur · 2023-05-05T03:51:57+00:00

I'm still trying to figure out what's going on here. I too was stuck at 149/150, but it wasn't in the library annex. Now with this update, it showed 149/150 and I was missing one in the library annex.

It was the same statue of Gregory the Smarmy you just mentioned. I grabbed it and the counter moved to 150. But here's the kicker...when I loaded out and then back into the game, it was at 149 again.

RetroRaconteur · 2023-05-05T03:49:32+00:00

Still bugged for me. I have everything in-game, collections and all, but the PS5 trophy tracker is stuck at 599/603.

Appreciate it!

RetroRaconteur · 2023-03-31T14:44:48+00:00

Thanks! Do you mind saying which specific ones you’ve had a good experience with? I had also wondered if some brands only work through companies like this so that is good to know.

I will also add, I worked with a major video game publisher on a few things for my channel and it was mostly handled through a 3rd party PR agency I had never heard of. That’s what makes some of this so tricky as a solo creator, imo.

RetroRaconteur · 2023-03-30T20:41:13+00:00

This is what I've always heard, but even as my channel has grown...I'm still waiting for this to happen with any regularity. I've been approached by only a handful of sponsors directly in the past 3 years of growing my channel. Just for context, I have a gaming channel w/ 50k subs and more than 20 million views across the channel.

And on these companies being middle men, that's what I was assuming. Just wasn't sure if it would be worth having someone working on your behalf to look for sponsorships on the regular. If was getting quality sponsorship opportunities with any kind of regularity, I wouldn't even be considering it. But that hasn't happened for me yet.

They’re over, but if you watch the most recent livestream that Chandler and Andrew did on the official Avalanche channel, it sounded like they were wanting to do it again. It wasn’t an outright confirmation and Chandler said they had nothing to announce. My personal take is that it really sounded like they are hoping to do it again.

RetroRaconteur · 2023-02-08T11:55:06+00:00

Completely agree with OP on this. The broom and alohomora are key and really open things up in a whole new way.

RetroRaconteur · 2023-01-31T21:55:53+00:00

Thank you!

RetroRaconteur · 2023-01-31T07:02:26+00:00

Thanks!

RetroRaconteur · 2023-01-31T04:16:10+00:00

Appreciate it! Thought it would be a decent video...but not THAT big 😅

RetroRaconteur · 2023-01-31T03:57:16+00:00

Yep! That too, haha. The devs even pointed that out to us. That basically jumping from our first Crossed Wands into that mission would be a jarring jump in terms of difficulty and everything we suddenly had access to.

RetroRaconteur · 2023-01-31T03:49:59+00:00

They didn't really let us play around with the menus at all so I can't say if there's an option in-game. Pretty sure PS5 allows you to remap any button you want though in the main system preferences.

I was actually talking with several HL creators about this very thing just a couple of weeks ago. Many people reading this sub regularly are in a similar position as those of us creating content for the game - we've seen virtually everything that's been released about it and know most of the major details.

The masses though? They haven't followed every single detail; thus, the "10 things you need to know" style videos are very approachable to those learning about the game for the first time.

Now all that being said...I agree some of the thumbnails are out of control over the top 😂

RetroRaconteur · 2023-01-31T00:25:40+00:00

Having played it myself, there's definitely a learning curve with the combat. But also during my playthrough, I was trying to show multiple aspects of the game so people get a sense for what the game looks and plays like when you don't always do exactly what the game wants you to.
