Once the charm of the Harry Potter license wears off, this thing falls off HARD.
The first few hours exploring the world are super fun, but once it becomes clear this is basically just a generic Ubisoft open-world game with an IP skin pasted over the top, it becomes a lot less enjoyable.
The quests are super formulaic and forgettable, the story and especially the villain are meh. Level-gating quests is a blatant way to pad out the main campaign.
This is basically a pretty good 15-hour experience padded out into an OK 25-hour one. It does look nice, though.
