It's pretty middling tbh. I played it last year when it was on PSPlus. Certainly couldn't see a reason for all the hype it got on launch. I assume HP fans are just starved of new content.
The gameplay is OK, but there's a lot of dicking about swapping spells, it's too damn long, and honestly not worth your time for a full playthrough. It's a very standard open world, go to the map icons, do the minigames affair. If you've played games in the last ten years, you'll know exactly what to expect. They've made a game for kids that will be played mostly by people who are now adults.
I think the Map of the castle is absolutely exceptional and there's a lot of attention to detail.
The main storyline is enjoyable enough, although I wish there was more of a push-back if you choose to use the unforgivable curses. They're meant to be unforgivable and yet you pretty much get a "oh I wish you wouldn't do that" when you straight up torture an enemy in front of an NPC.
The main letdown for me is that outside of the castle, a lot of the game feels somewhat empty. It's not like Skyrim where you go out into the world and you're always finding little things spread out everywhere that piques your interest. It feels like there's not much reason to venture out from the castle or Hogsmeade unless a mission explicitly tells you to.
Overall though I do think it's decent.

I've never understood the hate for Epic Games Store. Without Epic cross platform gaming would have never happened on consoles.
Yeah dude is a twat and has some shitty opinions but the same people who bitch about him will whine and moan about Gabe Newell having yachts.
I really just don't understand it.
If you don't want anyone to make money from games then that leaves no money left to develop games.
In fact, epic charges less than half of the listing fee for devs and publishers than any other service that lists games. (They lose money doing this, but they still do it).
Just really odd behavior in my opinion. People find anything to divide themselves over.

they are being fair and consistent.

Gamers are extremely toxic nowadays. it used to be less public. now they just rage at everything constantly. and in certain circles, its expected behavior.
lemmy gamers tend to be extremely anti-Epic Games even though there's some really good deals on there.

Around one week ago the game was on sale on Steam for %85, if any of your friends have bought it during that time ask them to refund :)
