I beat the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire game so you don't have to

  I love that Ron is programmed to say "bean" everytime he sees one, no matter where it comes from, and you drop beans whenever you get hurt. So whenever Harry gets hurt you just hear Ron in the distance going "A BEAN"🤣🤣🤣

  Damn, they actually acknowledged how bean-obsessed Ron is in that dialogue? I thought it was just an accident of having limited voice lines in the game through all these years we've been memeing about it. Really took me off guard how Ron's bean addiction was apparently a deliberate choice by the developers all along.

  "Did you finish the Goblet of Fire, Kevin?" The Viewers asked calmly.

  Growing up playing the first 3 games and then getting this on launch day was an experience. Kid version of me knew immediately that something was wrong...

  Ron in the books: brave, sometimes impulsive best friend.<br>Ron in the movies: Brave, slightly dumb comic relief best friend.<br>Ron in the games: BEANS!

  It cracks me up every time Ron FRANTICALLY shouts about beans while they’re in the middle of a battle.

  If anyone is wondering why the levels after Defense Against the Dark Arts didn&apos;t explain the story, I can explain. So, you have some levels that play the same way everytime, such as the Three Tri-wizard tasks and the Voldemort boss fight.<br><br>However, you also have levels like Hogwarts Exterior (which is an extension of Defense Against the Dark Arts), Forbidden Forest, Prefects Bathroom, and Herbology. The first time that you play those levels, you are in &quot;story mode&quot;. Some paths are blocked off to funnel you towards the story, and you get story cutscenes.<br><br>Then, because they needed to pad the game out, you are made to return to those levels later to collect Tri-wizard shields to unlock other levels. When you return, you don&apos;t start at the beginning point, and you don&apos;t play through the story elements again. As far as I know, you cannot trigger the story content a second time, even if you wanted to. Instead, you appear on that stone platform in the level, and the closed paths are opened. So, you have multiple paths to go down for Tri-wizard shields.<br><br>However, after the Forbidden Forest, Kevin started playing on someone else&apos;s save file, due to his problems saving the game. That person must have already completed the story. So, when he went into the Prefect&apos;s bathroom, he didn&apos;t start in the bathroom, and he didn&apos;t see the story content. Ron fumbles Harry&apos;s Golden Egg and knocks it into a pipe. That would have prompted the characters to break the wall and go through the area with the steam taps, the pipes, and the various creatures to find the Golden Egg. Instead, he appeared on the stone platform, already behind the broken wall, and wandered around lost instead. I suspect that the person who&apos;s save file he used also got all of the Tri-wizard shields already as well. So, there was nothing for him to do in that level.<br><br>The Herbology level is a similar case. The story mode for that involves fighting your way through the greenhouses to smash a giant hanging pot and get the Gillyweed for Task 2. Once again, the original owner of the save file already did that, and probably already did all the Tri-wizard shields, so there was nothing for him to do.<br><br>I can also explain how different spells are chosen, since Kevin was having trouble with them. It&apos;s based on the game&apos;s combo system. You have three types of attacks: Jinx until they are stunned, use a Charm, or Jinx until they are gone.<br><br>You have two options when you first encounter an enemy. You can either Jinx until they are stunned, or you can use a Charm. If you Jinx until they are stunned, you have two more options. You can either Jinx until they are gone, or you can use a Charm. Once you use a charm, your only option is to Jinx until they are gone. So, any given fight has either two or three stages depending on what combo you are going for.<br><br>The Dug Bogs are a good way to explain this. If you Jinx them until they are stunned, and then you Jinx them until they are gone, you will use Orchideous. That causes them to explode into pink flowers. If you use a Charm first (which will result in choosing Wingardium Leviosa), and then you Jinx them until they are gone, you will use Orbis. That makes them spin around and then sucks them into the ground. If you Jinx them until they are stunned, then use a Charm (which will result in choosing Wingardium Leviosa), and then you Jinx them until they are gone, you will use Avifors. That makes them explode into black crows. So you have three different combos that you can apply to Dug Bogs right there. There is also a fourth combo that doesn&apos;t work very well. The idea is to defeat them using Jinx, but somehow do that without following the pattern of Jinxing until they are stunned followed by Jinxing them until they are gone. I played the game alot back then, and I could never get the combo reliably on most enemies. You know you&apos;ve done it when they explode into fireworks. But its confusing because that also happens when you drop rocks on them.<br><br>One of your goals in the game is to grind certain spells enough times to master them. Some spells can only be applied to specific enemies, so you end up killing the same enemies in the same way alot. The most painful example is Ducklifors. You can only use it on the Blast-Ended Skrewts (giant crabs that fire napalm), and there are maybe 2-3 of them in the entire game. So, you have to replay sections over and over again. And the combo for Ducklifors is the more complicated three-stage combo. You have to Jinx them until stunned, then use a Charm (which will result in choosing Aqua Eructo to extinguish them, and then Jinx until they are gone to get credit for one use of Ducklifors. On the other hand, if you use a Charm first (which will result in choosing Wingardium Leviosa, and then Jinx them until they are gone, you get credit for one use of Avifors.<br><br>Spell mastery is probably much easier to do in co-op, as opposed to relying on the bad AI. Of course, you have to find someone else who wants to grind these games first.

  Voldemort resurrected himself just to become Harry’s hype-man lmao ‘If only Dumbledore could see you now!’, ‘Your mudblood mother would be so proud!’ Like aw 🥹 thank you for recognizing us and our amazing bean-gathering abilities, Voldy. That’s so sweet of you to notice!

  The craziest thing about this game is that the whole thing is built around its 3 player coop...until you get most important missions and you can only play them in singleplayer 😅
