Do Choices Affect a Player’s Character in Hogwarts Legacy?

The Potterheads have finally got their biggest wish come true, all thanks to the action role-playing that came in 2023 called Hogwarts Legacy. This game let fans take on the role of a fifth-year Hogwarts student who unravels the secrets of Ancient Magic and fights the evil forces.

But what makes this game even more special is the freedom for players to build their own characters. From the appearance of the character to what kind of sorcerer they want to be, it all depends on the creativity one has. There are many missions in the game that let the fans choose how to proceed with the game. But the question is, do the different choices affect the gameplay in any manner?

Choices have consequences in Hogwarts Legacy

The gameplay of Hogwarts Legacy depends on the player’s choice. First, the player reaches the prestigious Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, as the player needs to choose which Hogwarts house they choose.

Now the house the player belongs to affects one of the main questlines, which is to find the lost pages of the book that the players found in the library’s Restricted Section. The player’s house also affects the appearance of the special House robes and the Quidditch captain’s outfit.

The next choice which affects the gameplay is whether the player travels with Natty or Sebastian to the village. As with whom the player travels, they get to know more about them. But this choice mostly affects the fight with the Troll, as Natty’s spells deal more damage compared to Sebastian’s.

The next choice kinda affects your inventory. So while choosing the good options, some side requests will just reward the players for the quest. But going for the evil choice can let players get collectibles in their inventory, which they can’t use in the game.

Sebastian’s quest line gets greatly affected by the player’s choices. As he will allow players to decide if they want to learn the three Forbidden Curses or not. Further, whether the player chooses to protect Sebastian from punishment to Azkaban, affects the player’s friendship with him. Eventually, the ending also gets affected by players’ choices, like whether they want to keep the special power sealer or have it for themselves.
