So you genuinely don't know what you're talking about because the horcruxes and Voldemort's backstory was in Half-Blood Prince, not in Deathly Hallows.
And even if the word "horcrux" wasn't mentioned until book 6, it was apparently obvious that Voldy had done something to keephimself alive. That was a mystery established in the first book.

Uh no? Horcruxes were not established until Deathly Hallows.
Horcruxes were definitely in Half-Blood Prince because explaining what they were was the entire reason behind Professor Slughorn.

HBP ends with Snape killing Dumbledore after he and Harry go to retrieve the locket from the seaside zombie cave.

So no, you don't know what you're talking about.

Ok I checked and yeah they're mentioned offhandedly in one line in HBP, which is still incredibly poor foreshadowing, but I will concede that point.

If they're going to be the major plot device for an entire book, yes, they should have been.

So Pegasus was right when he said you have no idea what foreshadowing means.

He used the luck potion to figure out how to properly question Slughorn about horcruxes.

At this point, I think you're trying to obfuscate stupidity so you can later claim that you were just trolling instead of just admitting that you were wrong.

Bruh, I haven't even read any of the Harry Potter books. I've only seen the first three movies. Even I know these characters have been either 'cheating' or coming up with 'creative solutions' since the first movie. It's literally a series about magical shenanigans and schoolchildren. Invisibility cloaks, time turners, etc. It's all magic, all the time. Magic is literally the entire premise of the series.

Why are you being this way?

Using an explicit cheat item to solve the main problem of the plot isn't clever.

Now I'm remembering why that book made me start thinking "is this series getting bad?"

The first book literally gave Harry a fortune in gold, a brand new racing broom, and an invisibility cloak.

The third book gave Harry a map of the entire school (including secret passages), and the location of everyone in it. And another brand new racing broom.

The fourth book gave Harry a magic plant to beat the 2nd task, among other leg-ups.

The fifth book gave Harry a magic room to hold secret meetings in.

The sixth book gave Harry an old textbook full of helpful notes that makes his lessons a cinch. And a potion that solved his biggest problem.

Seriously, the entire series is nothing but Harry being given some OP item without him having to work for it in any way whatsoever.
It's honestly amazing that I never really noticed this until recently.

Horcruxes are a bullshit plot device that were never foreshadowed in any of the earlier books.

Wand lore, while not inherently a bad concept, is terrible in both its execution in the series and how it's used to resolve the final battle.

Characterization has all but gone out the window by this point. Characters can't even stay consistent within the same chapter.

Harry is suddenly a Jesus figure for no reason.

Half the book is nothing but putzing around, just looking for the next plot item.

The epilogue.

idk what needs to be spoiler tagged out of that but I'm blacking out the whole thing just to be safe

Harry Potter and the almost unending macguffins

I don't know when Rowling settled on the idea of horcruxes, but there's enough groundwork that they don't feel like bullshit.

Voldemort somehow being able to maintain his existence despite not having his own body.
Harry being able to talk to snakes despite not being of Salazar Slytherin's bloodline
The diary having, what was by all accounts, a copy of Voldemort's personality inside of it
Harry having the weird mental connection with voldemort as early as book 5
Dumbledore's "look of triumph" when Harry tells him what happened in the graveyard, which hints that they just unlocked the "good ending" to the horcrux plan

The wand lore and hallows absolutely were a last-minute asspull though. The only time we ever saw wands acting strangely were when Ron's was literally snapped in half. And Hermione "Literally Wikipedia" Granger would've certainly mentioned to Harry at some point "Oi 'Arry, invisibility cloaks aren't supposed to last multiple generations like yours does. I think it might be a legendary artifact."

Yes, that's obviously a retcon with no foreshadowing. So you seem to agree with him the the horcruxes weren't foreshadowed.

That's just a lie. From the very beginning, how Voldemort survived a rebounded killing curse was a question. The diary was showcased in the second book. There was a reference to the locket in the fifth book. HBP was entirely about showing Voldemort's backstory and how he created them.

You really don't understand why the dude that beat Voldemort as a baby and fucked with him multiple times over the preceding years is considered the rallying savior?

All of your other points are whatever, but none of what you said is evidence that she wrote DH first.
How come Harry's scar didn't hurt around the locket when they were rummaging through grimmauld place and found it in book 5? And no one sensed an evil presence like with the other horcruxes?

I don't like book 7 that much, but the only really nonsensical thing about it is the wand ownership rules she pulled out of her arse, it would make sense if it only applied to the Elder Wand but I guess she couldn't find a way to make that work.

The horcrux plot was probably foreshadowed just enough, she had it vaguely planned from the beginning and by book six she obviously had it completely sorted, could've done with a bit more in four and five though. The real issue was that not enough of them had been dealt with and that finding them was super vague, so it made Dumbledore look like a waster and Voldemort an idiot when some kids just go around and mess up his life's plan in half a book.

The Hallows were fine as a plot device, but they really could've done with some more foreshadowing - especially since she claims she had those planned from like book one or two. It would've added a nice dimension to the Dumbledore/Voldemort thing, and Dumbledore's character generally really, if it had been more established earlier in the series.
