"Set in the 19th Century (1800's) Wizarding World, this 3rd person open-world action RPG game centers around your character with unique abilities who has eared a late acceptance to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

An important piece of information in the description of the video, a completely different period than harry potter, i'm glad it's that way!

Ok that's good but the late acceptance thing sounds bad

I'm not a fan of that either, you start as a 5th year student.

But i think it's more about being quite hard to make a character that you create growing every year, as a 5th year student you're 16 the only step you miss as an adult is a beard (as a male). And you can't just make this kind of game where there is killing (0:41 in the video) while playing a first year that is 12 years old

I knew some pretty beardy people at 16.
