My favorite thing was to max out arrows with Legolas and play and replay the Black Gates level.

Also, the only reason I've found so far that it hasnt happened yet is because EA still owns Quidditch video game rights & won't do anything.

Also fair. I don't mind lootboxes as a concept, as long as content isn't gated behind them. Like, Black Ops 3 had weapons that could only
