Many aspects of Hogwarts Legacy don't unlock until you've progressed through the story your ability to get a broom and fly so you don't have to trek across the map, the Room of Requirement which acts as your base, and even the Talent system that upgrades your spells. While it may be tempting to pick a point on the horizon and run off into the Highlands as soon as you arrive at Hogwarts, it's better to bite off a chunk of the main quest first. Progress the main quest before you properly explore

Here, I'll walk you through eight hard-fought tips that should help speed up your Hogwarts Legacy progress, understand the game a little better, and avoid needlessly investing your time where it won't offer much dividends.

We're on this edge where games are still coming out with HDR adjustment settings when they don't need to, they just need to assume 1000 nits, but because Windows 10 is still very prevalent, they give people those controls anyway.There's a lot to understand, and Hogwarts Legacy isn't always the best at offering an indication of when a lot of these features are going to unlock. HDR in gaming, and HDR in general, is a bit of a weird field right now. Windows would assume everything is being presented in 1000 nits and bump up the brightness, blowing out your bright spots, which you don't want. But let's say you set it to 1170 in-game anyway. This gives you the truest representation of what the graphic artists wanted you to see. If you're getting 1170, Windows will take the 1000 nit peak brightness and automagically turn it up to 1170, bumping up everything else along the way. What you want to do is always set games to 1000 nits and then let Windows and your display tone map the 1000 nit signal it's receiving to the maximum luminance of the display. With games, and with HDR in general, everything is mastered at 1000 nits. I would then rerun the calibration tool and save that profile. If that is the Medium setting then that's what *I* would do. So what I would do, and this is strictly my own personal tastes, I'd set it to whatever will give you the highest maximum luminance.
