Hogwarts Legacy players spot major Dark wizards plot hole

At least they have limits?

Hogwarts Legacy has an issue with its Dark wizards, and it's not that there's a lot of them, threatening the stability of the Wizarding World in their quest for ancient magic.

Obviously it's impossible to create a flawless game, unless you are EA Redwood Shores and the game is MySims. However, Hogwarts Legacy fans, while charmed by the game, are picking out the things they'd like added or changed. These include a House Cup, Quidditch, an arachnophobia filter, companion system, and a multiplayer mode. All of this hubbub is almost deafening the controversies that the game has had, like the association with Harry Potter author J. K. Rowling's transphobic comments and accusations of antisemitism in the game's story.

Modders are waving their metaphorical wands over the game and adding sorely missed characters like... PS1 Hagrid to Hogwarts Legacy. Check out out below:

Hogwarts Legacy also allows its players to become an absolute rascal, and by "absolute rascal," I mean the wanton use of Unforgivable Curses. Those include the Killing Curse, the Cruciatus Curse and the Imperius Curse - acts that require real unquenchable evil to be present in the soul of the witch or wizard. So it's odd that none of the Dark wizards in the game employ them against the player.

"I've beaten the game and I can confirmed outside of cutscenes and 'very scripted sequences' your enemies never use Unforgivables," said Reddit user HeliusNine. "And yes, I agree this is a missed opportunity." Yet, the room is split.

"This would be dumb [as f*ck] to actually implement. Cheap instakills and stun locks are so irritating. Leave that trash in souls games in my opinion," added another, with one player reporting that a modded game where foes do use Unforgivable Curses is not as fun as it might sound.

At the moment, there is no DLC on the way to the game, so if you are missing the use of Unforgivable Curses, or Quidditch, or the multiplayer mode, then mods are your friend.
