I was intrigued by this comment, since I have never seen it before 
(bear with me, though - just been back after long lurking phase so it 
might have come up last week - sorry if it did). Still, counting on my 
fingers, I get:

PS: WW, Wizards
CoS: House elves and the Burrow
PoA: Azkaban (?) and Dementors
GoF: QWC (?) and DE
OoP: St. Mungo's/Ministry of Magic (?) and Giants (?)

I have a few troubles with this list. Remnant's definition is 
"immersed" and some of those places are certainly not been immersive. 
The best example is Azkaban, in PoA, which is only mentioned (and for 
that matter, was mentioned equally in CoS). But the Quidditch World 
Cup, the MoM and Mungo's are also "just visited" rather than being a 
big experience.

In the part of the groups, I'm even more confused. I tried to come up 
with one for OoP but I couldn't decide: what group was highlighted that 
hadn't been before? I put down giants, but could be the OoP itself.

So, in short, am I missing something? If there is a previous post on 
this matter, could someone send me a link? Thanks.

Bill has, in fact, joined the Order and has a desk job for Gringotts, 
after having left Egypt to join the Order. I doubt he'll be soon 
joining the MoM, though.

Hope that helps,
