If I can be a little nitpicky here: In the beginning the dwarf said: “Ah, the Mines of Moria. I hope this will lead to Dwarrowdelf.” Now the Mines of Moria is just a nickname for Khazad Dum. Which translates to Dwarrowdelf.
So basically he just said: “Ah, Dwarrowdelf. I hope this will lead to Dwarrowdelf.”
(Alright fine, they probably refer to the actual mines of Khazad Dum. And with “Dwarrowdelf” possibly just the Pillar-hall. But that’s still wrong so I win.)
Is that really the best gameplay they could show? Not much happened. Visually it’s extremely outdated.
As long as they’re not trying to charge $60 it’s fine I guess. Edit: So it’s $39.99 ಠಿヮಠ I’ll have to wait on reviews.
$30 usd
Why does this remind me of Yogventures?
Are they serious with this? This is a joke right? No way someone looks at that and say “yep, this looks awesome for 2023”. I’ll pay $10 for this, only because I’m a huge lotr fan, but $10 is my upper limit for what I just saw.
Well if that gollum game is any indication, and the Amazon show, the rights owners for LOTR don’t give a fuck about how their property gets used and abused. I expect a lot more shovelware in the future.
Guess I’ll have to enjoy what’s been made thus far, and accept that there likely won’t be anything good made in the future.
I really don’t care about outdated graphics, but unless the exploration is brilliant, I don’t see much potential content. Combat looked ‘hack and slash’ without proper mechanism.
What’s with all these crappy LOTR games? It looks so boring I won’t even try it.
I can see it being loved by the certain communities, like deep rock and such, but come on, you have the biggest and most popular fantasy world ever made and this is what you get out of it?
The company that owns the licensing to lotr is currently in a phase of will license the ip out to anyone mode. So whilst you might think there’s someone out there making decisions on what to do with the property, it’s more that a bunch of low budget companies are asking for the license and getting it for cheap
Mobile game looking ass
Yeah, I’d accept this if it were a DS game. Not on major consoles in 2023.
Is it a mobile game? Looks terrible!
Minecraft + Lara Croft
I get a Valheim mixed with LOTR vibes, I can’t remember if this is coming from a big studio or not…
Where does one go to play a good LOTR game these days? Feels like there a is a big void.
