Oh wow, interesting.

You know some of these designs are quite interesting. Tolkien's illustrations of some of the armour were quite ornate, and so I enjoyed seeing some of these more bizarre get-ups.
It certainly *feels* better as a Middle-earth game than those bloody Shadow of Mordor games. This one is not so nihilistically edgy.

{{ From the little Ive seen of gameplay it seems quite simple mechanics, reminds me more of the games that came out at same time as the official tie in games to the LotR's films did on ps2, only they weren't the official ones. Bit rough, bit simpler but drawing more from book rights than films in some ways. I think with this we get Gollum getting out the Misty Mountains past goblins, being lured to Mordor and eventually captured (with no doubt some Nazgul evading), his 'escape' and capture by Aragorn, then 'escape' again from the elves of Mirkwood (that seems to be make up a big bit of trailers, so chunk of game is probably set around Mirkwood), and I'm guessing it'll end on Moria and finally meeting up with thee fellowship. }}

A probable outcome!

{{ Was nosing my steam stats and apparently I have spent 4,307 hours in Steam VR, and as some of the VR games I play are on Oculus not Steam you can probably add at least another few hundred to that.
But even on just the Steam stats that means Ive spent just shy of 180 actual days inside virtual worlds.
Heck since the last time I last reinstalled Skyrim Ive spent 21 and a half real days inside that world.
21 days, thats longer than Ive gone to visit any actual real place for! }}

{ Well the Gollum game is out- and, its generally been hailed as the worst game of the year by some distance. I think had they put it out at indie game prices- 20 quid thereabouts its would have got 5/6 out of 10 reviews probably, but as a full price 60 quid triple A game, no, no , no. }}
