The only JRR Tolkien game I care about is the fully immersive VR experience where you tell bedtime stories to a young Christopher Tolkien who calls you out on any minor continuity errors you make.
They were probably hoping people would be elated with this announcement, but all I feel is trepidation.
They’ve never had the best track record. The (first?) one on SNES was hot garbage, not sure if there was (an official) one before that. Your trepidation is warranted.
Gollum 2: Electric Smeagol
Has there been a good one yet?
Shadow of War/Modor were fucking amazing.
If they made a new one and the only change was a slightly different story, better graphics, and zero innovation it could very well get GOTY.
Those games were insanely good and WB just sat on the patents and stopped using the Nemesis system
I loved the first one but the 2nd one just couldn’t keep me engaged. I played it for like a week then put it down and never felt the urge to pick it back up again.
The combat in those games is very addictive, it’s just so smooth and enjoyable. So like you said I also don’t think they would need to change much as the gameplay is already top tier.
Shoot…I forgot I own that game. Ha, Steam Sale glut library wins again.
