The Midden - Chamber of Secrets

And the whole questline chane seems kinda' Harry Potterish.

Anyone else think this?

Ancano always reminded me of Draco Malfoy's dad.

Lucio malfoy, I think? Lucio.. Lucien.. ? Som many lucys..

It's a quite odd to think the Winterhold college as a Harry potterish theme. But, anyway, nothing is impossible. In the end, every designer takes his influences and references from the World.

But Doesn't feel right to compare. Let's leave it this way for now.

EDIT: But I must confess I feel like batman while wearing the Nightingale armor. xD

Uh, no. My Dovahkiin is not some dork in glasses.

...no.

Snape was a good guy...

Only similarities I drew is that it's an exclusive magic school with faculty and students and it has its own share of secrets only the higher-ups are supposed to know about (the Midden, basically). Other than that, I don't really see it. There were other fantasy series before Harry Potter that featured a magic school...like Ursula K. Le Guin's A Wizard of Earthsea. I think the College of Winterhold actually reminds me more of Roke from Earthsea than it does of Harry Potter...

I didn't know HP became the headmaster of hog warts after only attending it for a week and having very poor magical ability.

i think theres far TOO many sci/fi nerdy film references/easter eggs in this game , it really spoils some of the immersion effect..

i also really DONT like harry potter and here in the UK if you dont like harry potter youre considered to be weird?!

Aw, come on. Finding the keys to the Millennium falcon in Sovengard was cool

yeah , i mean i understand why to add all of these kind of stuff it gives all the scifi nerdy types something to banter about, but if i wanted to find Millennium falcons keys i would play a star wars game

... Is that a real Easter egg?

I've never met anyone else that read that book! I thought it was pretty amazing. Isn't it a series, too, or was it just the one book?

Back on topic... it can't be Hogwarts without wands!

I feel the EXACT same way!! I didn't want to say anything and be shunned though
