So I could imagine that they probably wouldn't sound as robotic when mixed with a "more present" background/ambience music. This happened before in the gamescom Dark Arts trailer with the teacher/caretaker/father person but that also had (comparatively) loud music playing alongside it. There's only so much you can do with that sort of automation.Īs for the voices themselves, some felt sort of robotic (but in a weird way). They're not a dealbreaker for me (there were a few good ones, but heavily overshadowed by the worse ones). At least they're not claiming this is a life simulator, it's just a highly magical and immersive little jaunt into the world.įacial animations will be percieved kinda differently for each and everyone here but them looking not great/on par with the mocapped/mixed&edited cutscenes was sort of a given (based on the speech tool they mentioned in the Autodesk presentation). Hogwarts: Legacy (and especially in the demo today) has taken great strides to control peoples' expectations. I'm seeing the same telltale signs of fan overhype that I saw with Cyberpunk 2077, but at least with CP2077 it was often thanks to lies and fake marketing. I think it's unfortunate for them that this is the first serious HP lore game in a long time, and so peoples' expectations are full a full-on life simulator in Hogwarts. These guys are pouring their hearts into making a highly immersive take on HP lore for people to dip into. Not all video games can have Call of Duty's budget with absolute top industry talent.
This seems like a highly reasonable middle ground. Much as I fantasize about a fully scheduled Hogwarts school/class simulator, that would take IMMENSE development.
