You won't be playing as Harry Potter or any of the other famed magic kids, nor meeting them, because Hogwarts Legacy is set in the late 1800s
Uh oh...
You won't just be stuck at school hitting the books: the area around Hogwarts is explorable, and that's where you'll be smacking trolls and goblins around with magic. Magicking goblins to death will play a big part of Hogwarts Legacy, as the narrative is centred around a goblin rebellion, helped along by "Dark wizard Victor Rookwood."
Oh... oh no... :wut:
that's relieving. good thing there isn't a problematic history of depicting an ethnic group as simultaneously greedy bankers and violent revolutionaries
