i loved the detail in the opening cutscene of the main character being able to see the thestrals. such a nice touch

The game is what every Harry Potter fan dreamed of truly a masterpiece

Finding those details while gaming honestly touched my heart and made me feel like a child. What an experience. I’m looking forward for new games set in the wizarding world. The potential is unending!

"You'll fight a couple of acromantulas in the game", bit of an understatement...

This is the first time I’ve seen the arachnophobia mode, and I have to say that while it’s a neat idea, it looks WAY scarier than the original spiders lol

Its clear that the people involved in creating this game had some deep passion for the project and it shows, such a sweet experience. Thank you wholeheartedly!

You can tell this game is a labor of love by fans for fans (and even non fans!) It's been years yet I still discover something new about this world. You guys even made the battle system so fun and challenging! Initially I was content exploring through the castle and the open world because the design is gorgeous. But I eventually look forward to taking out the bad guys

I noticed the memorial to Coltrane (Hagrid) the first time I played. Was a really nice thing devs didn’t need to do❤️

This game is begging for some DLC!

The easter egg I love the most was the shurtcut to Hogsmeade, you know the entrance to Honeydukes behind the One-Eyed Witch, just like the books. Though, I preffered the route to be even longer and smalle. Another easter egg I loved was that you actually had the painting in front of the kitchen near the Hufflepuff Common Room. I love that you actually needed to tickle it! My bf who didn't read the books, didn't know it was there and I showed him. He was flabbergasted, so even for those who didn't read the books... it made it so much more magical!

I noticed most of these! It really moved me emotionally when coming across these details! Very well done.

Great job on this video, guys! I was blown away on so many of these when I originally found them. The love, care, and attention to detail the team put into the game is just incredible. Also, it looks like Chandler had a lot of fun recording for this one 😆😆😆

The amount of effort and attention to detail that went into making this game as accurate to the books and movies as possible is astounding and it really shows.

Appreciate all the Ron references! The movies definitely didn't do him justice

I am amazed and touched by the dedication and attention to detail the devs put into the game. Sometimes when playing I focus on finishing the quests, but this makes me want to stop and explore more. I admit I also laughed that using Flippendo on a cow says spilled milk and gives you a trophy.

My favourite one will always be "follow the butterflies." I laughed so much when I saw the quest name.

Was hugely moved when came across these references while playing the game, it was like living the dream we always wanted. Brilliant.

I want to live in the universe they've created, this game is simply amazing. The details are just incredible.

Even though I found many of these on my own I have to say a lot of those I genuinely wasn’t aware of, such as 3:12 wow had no idea about that! Hats off to the devs who had to not only deliver this amazing game but also delivered interesting bonuses for the players, such as these Easter eggs!

This game is so damn detailed I love it!! I found so many references from the film which has me always coming back to play this game more and more! You can tell the devs really put effort into this game by how much detail and lore behind each Easter egg! I love this game and hope they will continue this level of devotion to such a wonderful game. Fingers crossed 🤞🏾 for a game of the year award 🥇

I would love some “additional quests” DLC for the game or something.. it would be so fun having more random side quests to do

I thought i would have discovered all of these already before watching the video, as always with you guys my mind has been blown and ive realised i have not even scratched the surface yet. Great video :)

Wow, some were new to me. Thanks for making such an amazing game! Love when you make both the book and the movie scene come true ❤

I love this game so much 🥰 It couldn't be more perfect. Thank you for including all the details and for making this happen. ❤

Got to say this... Everyone that was involved in this game... You are all absolutely brilliant, one of my favourite things was seeing a troll dancing on the river bed, just the small things that made me smile. Thank you

A lovely run down - noting some that I missed, which was fun to see. The effort that has gone into this game is beyond anything I ever expected. This Potterhead was well and truly impressed (and super obsessed) by this game. A very well done!

We need BIG DLC with romance and much more misions.

The deathday party is a personal favourite. It was magical finding that dungeon when exploring the castle. Took me by suprise walking into a party.

I like the armor guys in some hallways who gets so annoyed from the other one humming that they just absolutely destroy them

When you go through the Room of Requirement for the first time, you can also find one of the Pawns from the chess game that takes place in the 1st book. That was one of my favorite finds!

Really I tip my hat off to the entire dev team ! Seeing all those details and attention to the look and feel of the game really shows the love and hours you all put into the game ! As a software engineer I know there must have been a lot of compromises made to get this masterpiece on time and under pressure, so really bravo for keeping the magic going there.

I'm still playing my long time dream game and I'll stay on as long as I can and I'm sooo happy about everything I'm discovering !! Most of all, I'm happy that it was made by real Harry Potter fans, you can tell

I just wanted to say HUGE thank you to the game devs for your passion and love that you put into every inch of this game

Why has there not been any expansions? We need more! I’ve completed the game 6 months ago and still waiting.

So much amazing detail in the game. Credit to the dev team! ,🪄🧙‍♂️🧙‍♀️

I am in love with this game, I've noticed the majority of these, and I'm very nosy XD Hecat is easily one of my fav professors too!! I hope to see more of these little tidbit videos

Thank you for this game. So much love put into it. 🐍💚

Ron's chess move in Philosopher's Stone 😂 Great vid! This game is beyond captivating!

I really hope they do a video covering all the Twitter videos they've done, explaining how they used book descriptions for locations like the cave first years come in on the boats etc.

the spider without the legs n roller blades somehow more terrifying then they normally look

I knew all of these except for the shop with 3 different doors / interiors

I love all the nods you did in Rons direction, as he was a very underated character in the films.

I love all of those details so so much! they just show how much knowledge and love went into creating this game!!! Also that portrait of Wendelin the Weird is my phone background - it's just so fabulous! And omg I knew that the Magical Creatures Ride Castle looked familiar and I wrecked my brain every time I went!!! That is so so so cool

I'm glad I noticed many of them! This game is a dream come true to us original book fans, and I'm so immensely grateful of the hard work and attention to detail (and faithfulness to original work) that went into this game. Forever thankful of the experience and the happiness it's brought. Thank you :) Hopefully we'll get to see more Sebastian and Ominis in the future!

Love the game!! Hope it gets a expansion or sequel!!

I got this game for Xbox one when It released, it is amazing I love everything about the game and how there are sooo many little Easter eggs and details shows how much love and effort you guys put into this game, thank you so much for making an amazing game!

Everyone knows about the Hogwarts quidditch stadium, but it was cool finding the backyard community setups in other regions.

This game is a love letter to the series. I don’t play a more magic game since ps1 philosophers stone!! I do love it thanks a lot!! ❤

I've only begun playing this last week .. And it's one of the best so far! Love it a lot

You can also see the lake where Harry first casted his stag Patronus when he saved Sirius Black from the Dementors. Numerous stags spawn in that area.

You even thought of the Thief's Downfall at Gringotts which I noticed a couple of days ago while re-reading the books :) absolutely brilliant!!

dude thank you guys so much for making an arachnophobia mode! they are so much less creepy and scary looking and I don't know if I could've done ANY of the quests involving spiders if ya'll didn't make that an option! I even sometimes have a little chuckle at the roller skates. bless ♥

The fight with the Grim and the White Wolf I think is a reference to Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. And the Infari with them to be the friends they lost in the wars.

I love this game so much, and I’m not even a huge Harry Potter fan. It’s so gorgeous, it’s so vast, and so detailed. I had to take a long break partway through and when I came back decided to start from the beginning again because I wanted to experience it all again. And there is still sooo much I haven’t discovered! And I love this video, because I’m learning Easter eggs that I definitely would never have known. (Again, not a big HP buff). Thank you for the video!

Thank you for bringing such amazing details to our attention.

I'm a huge Harry Potter but honestly at this point I'd get almost any game Chandler is involved with

1/7 surprised me & was unseen. thx

While I've never cast flipendo on a cow, I do like to accio them to the Merlin trials circle. When the Merlin trial ends the cow gets stuck on top of the little gazebo

I don't know if this will work each time, as I've only just noticed it, but the squid will come out of the lake during exploration time (not only when younare on the broom) to see the squid, you come down from the bridge on the left of hogwarts, as if you've just came from Hogsmeade. The boathouse should be on your right, there's a giant tree on the left. Near by there is a small peer/platform area with a boat tied up. Park your broom and face the direction of the tree. The squid then makes an appearance. It's done it twice now from this location, I am playing as a Gryffindor x

I’m so glad the Developers of this game took the time to add so many details and references my favorite one is the death day dance I’ve always been curious what that actually looked like. I would also like to say thank you thank you thank you for adding an arachnophobia mode as I am someone who hates giant hairy spiders and that was always my problem with Skyrim I loved the game itself but the spiders were always terrifying and everywhere and there was no arachnophobia mode so thank you for taking the time to not only add that but also add a reference that just so happens to be of one of my favorite Harry Potter scenes with it. You guys made an amazing game and you are all so awesome never forget that.

Loving all the love for Ron! 🧡

Amazing job y’all. Every game could use its tweaks but this one is an amazing experience reguardless

Hogwarts Legacy is such a beautiful masterpiece of a game! I have played through the gave five times and I’m still amazed how beautiful this game is. I do hope there will be dlc for this game.

The phoenix statue you meet in the tale of the three Deathly Hallows I would think is a reference to The Garden of Eden with the Fall of Man. Painted in about 1615 by Peter Paul Rubens and Jan Brueghel the Elder. where you can see a Phoenix in the same position as the statue

The one thing they probably can’t admit they sneaked into the game was the How To Train Your Dragon theme song with the Graphorn haha

Oh I have noticed some but knowing there was more surprises me!

the Indiana Jones skeleton is rly cool I love small little nods like that 10:14

Victor Rookwood’s descendant is mentioned in Goblet of Fire and was the death eater who killed Fred Weasley in the battle of Hogwarts

Omg the death day dungeon...when I stumbled upon it I screamed. It was amazing 😊

That woo hoo tho 😂 also this singer sounds a bit similar to Bloc Party 😮

Third! just wanna say thanks for making such a great game. i can tell that it was made with such care that only long time hardcore harry potter fans could provide. the little girl in me who was called a nerd for reading the books, playing the old playstation 1 games, watched all the movies many times over (i remember watching the first movie every day after school on vhs) was deeply happy. i felt at home in hogwarts and in the hufflepuff common room and i just want to say thank you. thank you for putting in the time to make such a wonderful game. looking forward to whatever else you put into this world. 💛💛

I love the dead wizard in the Goblin cave with his little homemade Wilson. LOL

Can’t get enough of this, you need to create more Easter egg details, another 74

On my 3rd play through (different houses each time) and there is still stuff I am finding that I didn't in my previous playthroughs

ARE YOU KIDDING Im three playthrough's in and I've NEVER noticed the three different entrances to the shop in Hogsmeade!!!! Thats's so cool!

Found the Australia bricks. Did a double take, that was fun

As someone who doesn't have arachnophobia, the "riddiculed" spiders are way creepier to me than the normal ones.

I didn't plan on crying today until I seen the detail about the grave for Robbie. RIP.

I'm still perplexed by the toilet stall where some greedy student took an entire cake to eat. I never hear anyone talk about it.

Every time i’m so impressed due to the details you guys brewed So OooWee are you gonna fix the Percival Rackam’s trial bug btw?

Love Avalanche games because you guys also made Mad Max! Loving the new game but I’m curious on who portkey games is? Is that a separate studio?

Maybe you mentioned it, there were so many I zoned out a little bit towards the end, but one quest has you hitting bells to play a specific melody in order to unlock the treasure. Ten points to the person who guesses which melody is the correct one ;)

Best game ever! And best team! Superb awesome editing in this video too! Can’t wait for more!!

I can't imagine how long it took them to hold a meeting to design all the details with references from books, films, folders, even something that isn't in the movie but can be connected to the book. how does the supervisor make sure that the details match the book or movie

With the example you gave of the move forward, fire cannons and move again paying a sail. Do you read that as do either but not both?

The memorial for the legendary Robbie Coltrane was a pn excellent touch.

This game is amazing. Can't wait for the next one. Congratulations to everyone involved

LOVE this game! Looking forwards to expansions, add ons, sequels, WHATEVER, give it to me!

0:50 i foubd the grim and the white wolf in that cave i like to think it was a reference to remus and sirius

The one that most surprised me in the game was the fact that Wendelin's portrait didn't have a revelio page 😂😂 I recognized Wendelin's portrait and i got the reference buy it was "weird" 😏 not having a page

As a Harry Potter franchise fan, this is a dream come true

this game is everything i wished for years ago and even more. glad it was made by a team of capable of creating such details.

5:40 The bottles in the vase is actually a reference to Winky the house elf drinking too much butterbeer in Order of the Phoenix. You guys even said so during a livestream, so it confuses me a bit that you changed the reference for this video. The bottles are even labled "Butterbeer"

I did not miss even one of those easter eggs 😎 because my Switch version I preordered 1 year ago arrives this Winter ¬¬

One of my favorite games ever, masterfully made

These are so cool... I missed some for sure

Wow! I didn't know that Bingle and Blatch had 3 different shops. I thought it was just 2!!!

You guys are BRILLIANT!! 🤩 Thank you for this wonderful game!! 🔮🧙‍♀️ I'm looking forward to a new one or a DLC (please, don't just focus on Quidditch). ❤

I'm happy that this game has references to Ron Weasley, because those movies did him wrong. Great game! 🎉

I found something related to the german fairy tale "Rumpelstiltskin". In a locked room above the Thestrals (Near the Quidditch place. Mr. Moon also lives there). There is standing a spinning wheel and a bunch of baskets filled with straw.
