[edit] Hermione and Ron need to be Playable!
Since they were playable in GOf, they have to be playable in OOTP! Only becuase it would make more sense. I mean come on you have to agree with me that Hermione and Ron do a lot more stuff in OOTP, than GOF! They do a lot more fighting, they learn brand new spells, they help Harry a lot more, like the time Hermione got rid of Umbridge for him! Heck they practically did everything together besides the Occlumency lessons with Snape! So yeah Hermione and Ron have to be playable! Besides in this book, and movie! Harry, Ron, and Hermione are really a unit, and they are much more as a team in this book, and now motion film! So there is no reason why Hermione and Ron can't be playable characters! Hermione and Ron need to be playable!!!!!!!!!!
[edit] Proof?
Non-Playable So far it is said that the following characters will be in the game :
Severus Snape Hermione Granger Ron Weasley Dolores Umbridge Voldemort Bellatrix Lestrange Dudley Dursley Rubeus Hagrid Grawp the giant
Where is the proof, I want to know! So far all I have heard is that Harry, Dumbledore, and Sirius are playable characters, there is no proof that Hermione and Ron are just non-playable characters! (I hope they are playable characters!)
[edit] Reasons Why...
Hermione and Ron should be playable characters in OOTP Video Game!!!!
Hermione:In the beginning of the fifth book[HP5], Hermione is staying at Grimmauld Place, the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, with the Weasleys. When she and Ron are reunited with Harry, moody and temperamental after being confined to the Dursleys nearly all summer, he loses his temper, which causes Hermione to get rather tearful. Hermione tries to tutor Harry on how to interact with girls when Harry tries his hand at a relationship with his long time crush Cho Chang - which ultimately falls apart due to Harry's inability to handle Cho's grief over Cedric Diggory's death and Cho's misplaced jealousy towards Hermione. Hermione becomes a prefect for Gryffindor. Hermione also continues S.P.E.W., attempting to befriend Kreacher, the surly and malicious old house-elf who lives in Grimmauld Place, despite the elf's obvious hatred of her by calling her a "Mudblood". She devotes her time and energy making clothes for the house-elves and putting them in strategic locations, in the hopes of freeing the elves. The house-elves refuse to clean Gryffindor Tower because of this, and the task is left to Dobby. Also, in Order of the Phoenix, Luna Lovegood is introduced. She is Hermione's complete opposite; accroding to author Rowling, she's "the anti-Hermione," ; "Hermione’s so logical and inflexible in so many ways and Luna is likely to believe ten impossible things before breakfast." Still, though the two girls do not share the same belief system, they become friends and comrades-in-arms when Luna is one of the few to support Harry by joining Dumbledore's Army (the D.A.) and aiding them during the climax of the book. Hermione's capture and subsequent blackmail of Rita Skeeter proves useful when she persuades Harry to give an interview confirming the return of Lord Voldemort. While Hermione is trying to convince Harry to start the D.A., she finally identifies Harry's enemy by his nickname, "Voldemort", making her one of the few students besides Harry to use the name. During the D.A., Hermione conjures a corporeal Patronus in the shape of an otter (Rowling's favorite animal). She also protects the D.A. from total betrayal (by Marietta Edgecombe, a member) by hexing its sign-up sheet; as a result of this, Marietta is (apparently) permanently disfigured by a cluster of pustules on her face spelling 'Sneak': since this is still the case at the beginning of the sixth year, it is clear that Hermione has not as yet repealed her hex, and that presumably nobody else can. This raises the paradox of Hermione's magical prowess being employed in a less than stellar manner. Hagrid introduces Hermione and Harry to his giant half-brother, Grawp, and since Hagrid is being targeted by Umbridge because of his loyalty to Dumbledore, he asks them to take care of Grawp if Umbridge somehow succeeds in getting rid of Hagrid himself. Hermione is initially very upset and angry with Hagrid over his request, feeling that Grawp is too much for the three of them to handle, but Grawp proves unexpectedly useful later on when Hermione and Harry lead Umbridge into the Forbidden Forest. After Umbridge is carried away by the Centaurs, the Centaurs turn their attention to Hermione and Harry and prepare to kill them, until Grawp unexpectedly blunders his way in and distracts the centaurs long enough for the two to escape. She is involved in the battle in the Department of Mysteries, in which she is seriously injured by an unknown curse from the Death Eater Antonin Dolohov, but after taking ten types of potions a day, she makes a full recovery. (Hermione Granger Wikipedia)
Ron:In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Ron is appointed a Gryffindor prefect, much to the surprise of himself and everyone else, especially Hermione, the other new prefect. His brother, Percy, now distant and disconnected from the family, sends Ron an owl congratulating him and advising him to "sever ties" with Harry and side himself instead with Professor Umbridge, the abominable new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher; the letter angers Ron. Ron explicitly shows his support and loyalty for Harry when his classmates imply Harry is lying about the return of Voldemort, sometimes using his power as prefect to threaten them into silence. Though they spend their usual amount of time bickering, Ron and Hermione present a united front endorsing Harry. Ron supports Hermione's suggestion of Harry teaching students practical Defence Against the Dark Arts, which Umbridge has all but banned. He later helps to found the secret students' group called Dumbledore's Army. Later, Ron battles the Death Eaters alongside Harry, Hermione, Ginny, Luna Lovegood and Neville at the Department of Mysteries. He is injured in the fight, but makes a full recovery. (Ron Weasley Wikipedia)
So as you can tell they deserve to be a playable character in OOTP, they help Harry so much! They have done so much for themselves, and Harry!
[edit] Reasons why Ron and Hermione are not playable:
If you follow this link you will find a post on the Leaky Lounge about Ron and Hermione's unplayability. Link: Leaky Lounge
Note especially the part about taking over and becoming a leader. This is a very good reason why they are not playable.
NOTE: The person that made this post has visited EA studios and this is what EA have said themselves.
[edit] Well...
as long as Hermione and Ron are with Harry every step of the way, then I guess it is fine that they are not playable.
[edit] Where is the proof...
... of the stuff that is getting put on here?
[edit] Items that have not been confirmed
- It has been confirmed Bertie Bott's every flavour beans are NOT going to be in this game!
- Dungbombs, Stinkpellets: Just because these have been in several of the other games, doesn't mean they will be in this one!
- Brooms: Although EA would love to put flying into this game, because of their small team size and limited time, they have made their priorities and exploring a large Hogwarts is at the top of this list.
[edit] Creatures that have not been confirmed:
- Blast-Ended Skrewts: Once again, just because they are in previous games, doesnt mean they will be in this one!
- Hedwig: Not confirmed.
[edit] Spells that have not been confirmed:
- A whole bunch!
[edit] Characters that have not been confirmed:
- Although all the characters on that list are most likely to be in the game, the last three have not been confirmed. All the others can be found in the first link at the bottom of the page and searching carefully.
[edit] However...
If you have seen proof of these things, just link here to the page where you have seen it!
