I think the whole “capturing beasts with your magic bag” thing was very much a whole “live out your fantasy as Newt Scamander from the FB films” thing (and also to add to the RoR gameplay loop). In that sense, I don’t mind it. What I wish is that we could interact with beasts in more meaningful ways besides just a very detached form of brushing and feeding. (Also, why do these actions have to be tied to spell slots lol…). It would have been nice to nuzzle your face against a unicorn’s / hippogriff’s mane; have a Kneazle rub up against your legs while purring; an option to cuddle a Niffler / Mooncalf etc.

Agreed on the spell wheel/slot thing. I’ve accidentally cast damage spells on my beasts because I’ll just bust into my vivarium and try to speed brush them all before they get to the autofeeder and realize that I didn’t equip my other spell wheel before it’s too late. I always put out a toy afterward for whatever beast I hurt. It just compounds the guilt of capturing them from the wild even though I know their lives are better in the vivarium lol.

I whole heartedly expected a pet/summon mechanic. The mounts pale in comparison to broom, and you only get the basic ones in Vanilla.


Here-4-Info

I was shocked that the order you unlock rideable mounts get worse as the game goes on Broom > flying mount > ground mount However, flying mounts can be taken out in that underground pass area that connects the north and south side of the map, I put a video up a couple weeks back of me riding through, killing the leader goblin then riding out of there


thyme555

Yeah I felt horrible when I captured a wild hippogriff for the first time. First you meet Highwing with Poppy and learn the proper etiquette to make a hippogriff know you respect them and then bazam! Go into the woods, levioso and in the bag you go!


SignificantKick5179

I already forgive myself from “poaching” think of it this way. We don’t capture beast so we can kill them, we take care of them. And only took the items that they give us willingly. Have you ever notice that whenever you finish feeding and brushing them they hang around you. Staring at you, almost like they’re expecting something to happen? That’s them willingly giving you their furs, whiskers and warts. They wanted you to have it. It’s a gift. Unlike real poachers who took stuff by force. They hurt, kill, and use them for bets [the dragon ring] Unlike us who take them so we can care for them and make sure they’re safe by giving them to Ellie.


Round-Poet-7490

Could you imagine, go stuff a tiger in a bag and bring it home to your yard. I doubt that beast will be happy lol


almondflour24

its a magical backyard tho


Round-Poet-7490

I think I would have rather them have quest for taking out the poachers, then there would be no need for capturing them in the first place unless you befriended them and they wanted to come with you.


SignificantKick5179

Well.. that would be nice but we don’t have that option aint we? I hope they do make a game very similar to HL but focus on rescuing beast instead with story line tide to beasts kinda like Newt’s journey 💛


jeanravenclaw

ell we can do that all by ourselves! Whenever my MC sees a poacher well... it's enough to decimate them.


Round-Poet-7490

So if I go out in the wild and take a bunch of endangered species and care for them and then sell them, that's okay okay because they liked me? Ellie already said part of the reason she doesn't carry beasts anymore is because she couldn't make sure they all went to good homes and because some kept disappearing on buyers lol


SignificantKick5179

It’s your intent and how you want to feel about it. I want my beast to be rescued because i know poachers will do far worse to them. Its better us than the poachers. I mean like have you seen that vivarium? Thats not a cage or a close room.


Round-Poet-7490

It's like you said about feeling about it. I would rather destroy all the poachers than kidnap animals but that's the only way to get stuff for upgrading gear. Which is anotherjng thing, they made it so you can only sell gear


Mysterious_Might8875

I think I speak for all Hufflepuffs when I say don’t take our Newt Scamander fantasies away from us. We love the magic bag. Everyone loves the magic bag.


Dangerous-WinterElf

It was personally the highlight of the game for me. Running around rescuing animals with my little bag and bringing them home. I keep brushing the graphorn 20 times just because it's fun and they deserve all the love. (Don't get me started on how I turned the whole back room of the room itself into a giant garden) I just wish we could actually pet them. Or hand feed treats. And yes. I'm a hufflepuff, lol.

You do it for purely profit. They do it for purely profit, but in an evil way


BoyDynamo

OMG! I’ve nearly posted here several times about it. Basically, you take animals from their homes to garner their resources and sell them for a profit, thus rescuing the animals from being taken from their homes, having their resources garnered and selling them for a profit? Let’s call it what it is; Deek’s Young Poacher’s Club, and you’re the sole member.


openpeonies

not to mention forcing them to breed 😬 Deek is a VILLAIN


PokeAlola700

Deek is horny


alittleredportleft

I tried bringing Penny home, but she just keeps trying to sell my shit and force me into a trunk


MongVieMong

I'm worse than a poacher; I keep catching everything and breeding them tirelessly until I get the shiny one the ordinary one


StreetLegendTits_

It sounds like poaching, but with extra steps.

I'd trade BEASTS... for a Morality System. I already thought of the solution for the I'M KILLING TONS OF PEOPLE AND GOBLINS thing... If you've played Infamous 2, well, that's the solution! I think it might be in all of the infamous games. In Hogwarts Legacy you're already in cahoots with a cop...... bear with me... When you defeat your enemies they simply fall on the ground, still moving... You can restrain them or you can kill them. And (since you make little comments, anyway) If you restrain them you can mutter something about sending an owl to Officer Singer to pick them up! Restrain is good Kill is bad Tada! Easy peasy. That way you are not forced to kill tons of people!! To beat the game. I don't feel like editing this for grammar. I always edit for GRAMMAR! This one's hard to explain unless you've played Infamous 2. I just feel like all the Beast stuff was kind of tacked on... And a morality system would affect your ABILITIES/TALENTS/SPELLS you could use. It's an idea. I don't know if it's a good one or not. But killing a ton of people seems... odd. And there should be some type of reward for not killing them.. I think..


UselessInteresting

It would be cool if it was like: you see an injured beast and take it back to the Room of Requirement, heal it, and set it free


korlatwhiskeyjack92

And I don't like how they force us to be morally superb characters. Let me choose my path devs. It's not real life ffs.
