I stuck and confused. I followed the "instructions", the maps states I have 1/1 chests. I even opened all the extra chests inside.

But the mission is not considered completed.

So i got Hogwarts legacy 2 days ago on my switch and im having fun, I chose Ravenclaw and I did some of the first classes missions to get the first few spells, I finally reached to the town but idk what to do now, can someone tell me what to do now?

- Side quests missions only available after curfew. Teachers and prefects patrol the hallways, dungeons, and the parc...You get detected by a prefect, but the student happens to be one of those who asked for your help earlier during the game. If you completed his quest, he would let you go without alerting the castle. On the contrary, if you still haven't completed the quest, chose to keep the item for yourself, or have been greedy somehow... You'll get 'captured' and lose points for your house. Points you need to unlock rare items/gear, upgrade spells, and the duration of the potions.

- The common room: It could have been the only place you are allowed to be after the curfew, the HQ where you can prepare for quests, receive quests from other students, save the game by interacting with your bed, store your item excess in the closet or trunk, change gear, and be safe from any attack (I like when -in a game- I narrowly escape from trouble or an enemy at the last second, by getting in a place I can’t be reached and look at him raging like in Dying light).

- Great hall: A place where you can restore your health bar and ancient magic without wasting your potions (same for the kitchens, Zonko, and food you find in the common room).

- Central hall: An in-game hub where you can interact with students from other houses, trade, challenge, or receive quests from...Instead of adding a multiplayer mode that would probably affect graphics and other parameters of the game (I'm not a developer, I'm just assuming, despite its something I expected nowadays consoles to be able to run), the great hall could be the place you must often visit to take part in events and other stuff the developers would regularly/periodically add to the game to keep the postgame relevant until the next game.

- Library: the place you must visit and read books (interact with one to have a page in your inventory) and get the information you’ll need to learn a spell, potion’s recipe, information to pass classes and find helpful clues to prepare quests or hunt beasts. Some books would require a nocturnal infiltration into the restricted session or somewhere else in the castle, like the Headmaster's private library in the tower.

- Social interactions: Helping other students should have filled some kind of bar that once it reaches a certain level, those students could become available to be recruited (using that owl in your dorm) to help you in complicated quests, duels, … If you help more than one student from another house, you will receive the password to get inside another common room. Hence, unlocking another safe base (handy in case you find yourself trapped by night, and too far from your own house), with unique content you can’t receive if you stick to your house. In GTA, characters call you just to hang out…They could have done that in Hogwarts Legacy, so instead of choosing the game’s difficulty, let us decide while playing. I’ll explain…If you choose to be a loner, the game will be difficult because you’ll have to face too many enemies alone, lack of resources, etc... If you choose socializing, students would tag along to help, give you valuable resources, access to their common rooms, and other secret passages to dodge patrols, etc...

- We could have been asked to find and observe magical beasts for the care of the magical creature class. Then, pass a quiz before being allowed to capture a beast…Until completing a bestiary.

- Classes: Each lesson consists of a mini-game related to the content of the lesson, tasks, and a quiz, which, once passed, gives access to a bonus (spell, plant, potion, beast). A clock to keep track of the time and respect the lesson times so as not to lose points or be chased by Hogwarts staff. Something like a wanted system in Red Dead Redemption... Not only could courses have been compulsory to level up your character, but provided content to enrich the lore of HP’s universe as well. Because I don't think I've learned anything not already in the books, movies, or fandomwiki.

- Hogsmeade: They should have thought about making each shop relevant. Growing plants, ingredients, and brewing potions in the room of requirement is great, but it made Hogsmeade irrelevant the moment I could afford to buy pots…Which happened very fast.

- Morality system: It’s incoherent that we could break into teachers’ offices, quarters, people’s houses, and loot their stuff with no consequences at all (I won’t bring up the unforgivable curse who are fine to use in Hogwarts Legacy). There should be a point when people would start 'hunting' or 'watching' you do bad actions without wearing a mask, which would give some importance to the gear you find in the game or buy in shops.

- Clothes: The choice of your clothes and gear could be used proficiently in the game. Wearing a school uniform in Hogsmeade would raise suspicions if you visit Hogsmeade during class hours or at night. Students from other houses would also be curious if they see you wandering around or inside their common house while not sporting their colors.

- After some time, I grew tired of repeatedly fighting spiders to -at the end- come out of the underground with a pair of gloves. The rewards should have been something worthy of the time…Maybe they should have taken inspiration from Assassin’s Creed, where you discover ancient histories. It could have been histories about ancient wizards and events we never heard of.

- Weather: I think it would be nice if the game could either let you choose the weather or divide the map into different regions with their own climate, rather than link it to where you are in the plot, not only for aesthetics, but also because it opens the way to game mechanics. Many games force you to pay attention to what clothes you are wearing. Example: If you want to adventure in cold/snowy areas of the game (let's say, to fight and collect items from a mountain troll that only lives there), you must be dressed accordingly so as not to affect your stamina and so on...Another example, riding a broom would be too complicated in those zones because of the winds or visibility, so it would force mastering a winged beast to progress in your exploration.

- Progressive difficulty: Regardless of your character level, I would like the game difficulty to be progressive...Very easy, the closer you are to Hogwarts. Then, it would start increasing the further you explore until it becomes 'Grand Sorcerer, Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot, Supreme Mugwump of the International Confederation of Wizards, and recipient of the Order of Merlin, First Class' level in areas in the map where you'll find no shelter or resources but those you'd bring with you from the castle. Places where you'd find the most dangerous beasts (Werewolves, Dragons, dementors, manticores, vampires?) and criminals of the game, with the rewards that let you reach the 100% trophy instead of completing Merlin trials.

- Let's be crazy: An online mode accessible after completing the main game, where you can start a good or evil guild, a personalized HQ that can be invaded by real enemy players, and beat online special events...Hunt players who made bad moral choices or be chased by them...Characters that choose to specialize in a branch of magic during their main game progression, which would make you think wisely while spending the mission points (House points?) on skills. HQs built in the dangerous areas of the map where you'd be 'safe' from other guilds, but not from the AI-driven characters there? Broom racing? Or just hanging out doing stuff with friends?

- Reading newspapers and overhearing conversations offline would randoñly inform you about what other players are doing in their sessions offline and online, like in the games, in which at the end of an episode, you get a page where they show you the percentage of players that made the same choices as you in the world and among your friends that play the game.

Honestly, the right owners have the money, Harry Potter has a fan base that will massively buy the game, the technology exists, and they can draw inspiration from several games that came out like 15 years ago on PlayStation 3. They can really do a game that would crush all the records and not need a sequel before a very long time.

so with the side quests. how long till j start to google how to do them 🙈 im at the quest with a map outside of hogwarts… and i can’t for the hell seem to read it well. yet i don’t feel like spending days on it and doing other things cause i will forget what it even was

It's a well known game so no new revelations. Good time especially if you're a fan of the books or movies. Great job designing the wand combat and integrating herbology. Broom flying is nice af I end up skipping fast travel just to do that.

Hogwarts is well designed and is fun to explore. There are a ton of collectibles to find but subjectively they were easy for me as I spent most of my playtime exploring the world.

Story is a bit meh and the actor face capture is not the best. There are also some trophies which you need to track manually like the one that needs you to hit every type of enemy with the ultimate and one for collectible chests.

Tip: if you're a pottermore/wizarding world user you can connect accounts to migrate your house and wand.

Timer is very thight, and it doesn't tell you what you have to do

I try completing what it tells me on-screen but it's not enough

I grew up with the Harry Potter games, and Hogwarts Legacy was a wonderful experience—but I feel there's huge potential for a sequel that takes everything to the next level. For years, I’ve been imagining an idea I’d love to share with you, and maybe, if we’re lucky, it could even reach Avalanche.

Here’s my vision for “Magic World,” a sequel or evolution of Hogwarts Legacy:

A bigger, more alive world: including Diagon Alley, the Ministry of Magic, Azkaban, the inside of the Hogwarts Express, the Burrow, and more magical villages.

Fully interactive classes like in Bully, with real schedules, exams, and unique rewards like the Firebolt.

Season system and online events (Halloween, Christmas, Valentine’s Day), and a world where each side quest is a mystery to uncover—no forced repetition or task counters.

Total customization: more physical features, outfits, and fully customizable brooms (magic broom tuning!).

Free online post-graduation mode: choose magical careers (Auror, Professor, Magizoologist) with a fully customizable adult version of your character.

Unlockable Dark Wizard mode: by finishing the game with the worst possible karma path.

Special DLC: Quidditch World Cup, with a system like the classic Quidditch World Cup game, plus a spectator mode where you can freely walk around the stands and interact.

All of this truly came from the heart, as a fan. In fact, something curious happened once: I contacted Ubisoft asking them to add certain items in Ghost Recon Breakpoint, and months later… they released them! I felt like I’d been heard.

I know this sounds ambitious, but if many of us share this, maybe we can make it visible to the developers. What do you think? Would you support this?

Some missions I did have a V on them and some o finish do not. How can I complete missions on this game?
