@@victuz I haven’t read the Silmarillion yet but wasn’t Morgoth his Sauron’s master still alive also?, my point being a bigger evil than Sauron wouldn’t allow him to be even near that powerful yet.
The beginning of it all was caused by Vala Melkor, he damaged two trees of light in Valinor, Telperion and Laurelin along with the Ungoliant big spider, after that he went to Formenos to kill King Finwe, the great King of the Noldor, and take the Silmarillion Gems from Feanor. Then he rushed off to middle earth to hide, and at that moment everything happened until now
No problem, Melkor struck the 2 trees (1 of silver and 1 of gold) and ungoliant the giant spider, the mother to the spider shelob that stung frodo, but the giant spider drained them and became more powerful
The gameplay and storyline for these two games are leagues ahead of Amazon's Rings of Power. This game stayed true to Tolkien's work with their own creative liberty that doesn't offend anyone.

2 games yeah, Shadow of Mordor and Shadow of War. Really good games if you understand the lore behind them and if you enjoy Assassin's Creed type games
Can't you just give the show a chance? You criticized it even before it came out, because it didn't have Tolkenian aspects, and it took too many liberties. Well, thank the fuck, that's what they have to do, the book is the book, the series is the series. I remind you that the series is not the film adaptation of the fucking Simmarillion, IT IS NOT. There will be aspects from which it is inspired, but for 3/4 it is invented, so it is useless to go on to say that it makes no sense because it is different from Tolkien's writings. Anyway, those who say that there are no Tolkenian aspects have never read shit, thanks for your attention and goodbye. Find out, look at it, and shut your mouth.
Is it wrong that for the rings of power, I wanted this portrayal of Celebrimbor. Or something similar. Like with Elrond, he now has blonde hair. I'm not a fan of it, and can I get an amen for those who feel that there is no passion in the acting, like they're just reading a script and not giving it any energy.

What's funny is that this games actually took a big dump on tolkiens lore and nobody actually cared and want a series like the game. yet somehow are bothered by having black people everywhere... cant be the lore tho, so why?
Yeah, there is so much lore breaking in this game, but I love it because it’s accepted this game being a game, a fan service. And it’s the story, the intention behind it, no political agenda or Woke trash. And because of that, they can fuck the lore and still make me happy. But Amazon have fucking clue.
I played these games without knowing a thing about LOTR. These games are probably the best fantasy based games (Skyrim is always #1 to me) and started my love for lord of the rings . I actually just watched all 3 movies this week but a little disappointed that we never see Sauron come back
You should really read the silmarillion. Sauron is a cowardly little bitch compared to the elves of the first age. You want to know power? An entire continent sunk because of a war between gods. 8’ tall humans wanted to conquer heaven. A dragon the size of a mountain existed. An elf wounded the second most powerful being in creation. The gods spoke to mere humans and gave them favors.
Well, he actually does come back, and in a deleted scene. The issue is it doesn’t make any sense at all. We literally get to see him tear up an army in the beginning of fellowship, that’s basically all of the information we need to know that this guy can’t be allowed to return.
Let me explain. Sauron is a Maiar. Basically a lesser God or a Minor God. He cannot be completely be destroyed but he can be reduced to almost nothing. A spirit of the wind. A harmless ghost. The Ring has most of Sauron’s essence/spirit/power, which is why he needs it back to gain his full power back. The Sauron that we see in LOTR is a weak one but powerful to command armies and Ringwraiths. The reason we don’t see him in the movies at all is because he can’t really take physical form, if I remember correctly. The Ring is able to corrupt and destroy anyone who wears it because the Spirit of Sauron is in it. Essentially, Sauron influences the wearer To self destruct themselves. The movies of the Lord of the Rings doesn’t show the full strength of Sauron, because at his full strength, The Free People of Middle Earth would be enslaved and the realms of Gondor and Rohan would be at his command. Not to mention, the 3 Elven Rings would be located and be at risk of falling into Sauron’s hand. I’m a huge Tolkien fan so feel free to shoot any questions
@@Rvckyricardo1- sauron can not use his full ainur power because he entered ea. Eru took away like 99.9% of his powers to make destruction less likely. Same with all ainur. Including the istari. 2- he did have physical form in the third age. But it was too weak to do much. Hence why he didnt make an appearance.
@@Rvckyricardo Sure! I havent read any of the books but is there anything in the books you would have wished for them to be in the movie? Things that would make it more accurate or explain the story better?
In the end it wasnt the forced woke inclusion even those characters are kind of likeable. At this point Elrond, Galadriel and Cerebrimbor are just unlikeable characters and look nothing likes elves.
Not sure why we never got a show of this. This would’ve been a lot better than rings of power. After watching the first two episodes it just feels underwhelming compared to lord of the rings, shadow of war, and even the hobbit. Already I feel like the show is gonna end up like either the halo series or wheels of time
Of course they wouldn't make this into a show. They don't have time for good story telling since they are too busy to tend to the fragile egos of white woman and black people and force their biased ideology on other people.
My guy, rings of power just came out & there’s legit only 2 episodes. They have so much more story to tell it’s not even funny, there’s legit gonna be 5 season lmao.

@@saucemaster9611 Rings of power won't get better. Because as it always is with woke projects, the plot is only secondary.

Okay can someone clarify this was celebrimbor who almost killed Sauron but then lost the ring correct? That's why he used the same tool that celebrimbor used to forge the Rings to kill him
Not sure what you mean, since Gone With The Wind is a terrible movie that's too long, overwrought, and racist. Also love that you said "the entire rings of power series" when there's only 2 episodes even available. Willing to bet you haven't actually seen them, which is too bad, as it's really good.

@@gnarly3000 he watched his wife and child die before he was killed. A wraith is a spirit of vengeance. It said that what type of ghost you become is based off the emotion your feeling at the time of death
The Valar and Maiar all had varying levels of power between them. Melkor was the strongest of the Valar (before he reduced himself to Morgoth pouring all his energy into the world), and Sauron is probably the strongest Maia apart from Eonwe and MAYBE Melian. In fact, Sauron at his strongest (Second Age with the Ring pre-Akallabeth) was stated to be mightier than Morgoth at his weakest (War of Wrath, end of the First Age).
I remember playing one of these on the PS4 years ago but none of these video clips were in the game. Anyone remember what all the games in this series were called? Epic game by the way of my all time favorites!!!!
Middle earth shadow series. Fist one was shadow of modor, second was shadow of war. I think both are currently on sale on psn store or included in PS plus extra.
I would love to see them make a game going thru the fellowship to the end of the LOTRS I think with this format it would easily be the game of the year.
not true... sauron controlls the orcs the reason that they think and don't go wild is because they are all controlled by him which is proven because after the lord of the rings trilogy all the orcs scatter some kill themselfes some hide but most of them die and why? they could survive for so long and yet they all died so easily ? maybe they we'rent thinknig straight because they we're not controlled anymore. anyways my point is that technicaly him controlling all the orcs means that he killed everyone.
God yeah. Both the Middle-earth games and Rings of Power shit all over the established lore, but at least the Middle-earth duology is entertaining and actually maintains the ESSENCE of LotR. The same CANNOT be said for RoP.
Amazon, with a similar approach to this videogame, similar scale, energy, stakes, cast... but your humongous budget, Rings of Power would have made House of the Dragon look tiny. But you chose two incompetent show runners, and from there all the way down, everything crumbles. It's inevitable.
As a mage, I am quite intrigued by these “Rings of Power” 🌀💠🌟. We had many enchanted rings and artifacts in the realm I come from, so it is fascinating that legends about power rings should exist here as well.
If they only make a game of the lord of the rings all three films and the hobbit with the meccanics and gameplay of shadow of mordor and shadow of war.... ladies and gentelmens....the perfection
That's because the Amazon series is a low budget fantasy drama made for streaming service, you can even see it from the costumes and props alone. People really have too high of a expectation if they think any TV show or even most movies can match the $300 mil budget that Peter Jackson did for the blockbuster LOTR trilogy, which is still widely considered one of the most ambitious and expansive movie production ever pulled off even today.
yes, it does, and they make a point of explicitly stating the games are not cannon, unlike other current debatcheries of Tolkien's world(cough cough rings of power cough cough)

of course it would fall. the ring was too big. he should have made it smaller.
Sauron IS the ring, his body merely willed it back to him to reunite.
The ring just returned to it's master.
my favourite part is where he said, "its ringing time" & ringed all the humans on earth. Truly one of the moments of all time.
Shadow of mordor is gold
Okay can someone clarify this was celebrimbor who almost killed Sauron but then lost the ring correct? That's why he used the same tool that celebrimbor used to forge the Rings to kill him
Fan Fiction
2:43 Gideon Offnir
This 5 minute video is better than all of Rings of Power season 1.
Never forget the men of Gondor who tried to hold back the tide of Sauron at Minas Ithil...
Just this five minute cinematic from a video game is like Gone with the wind compared to the entire Rings of power series
Not sure what you mean, since Gone With The Wind is a terrible movie that's too long, overwrought, and racist. Also love that you said "the entire rings of power series" when there's only 2 episodes even available. Willing to bet you haven't actually seen them, which is too bad, as it's really good.
How can it be better than the entirety of a series you’ve only seen 2 episodes of? Wth do you ppl be smokin’? Like seriously, what do you have to possibly be this upset about that you made such a impossible claim? It’s impossible for you to know that so why say it? 😩😭 y’all really crazy
Rings of trash

Everyone said the same thing about the Star Wars cinematics to the online game 😂you people have no idea what the difference is between live action and animation do you
A scene from Rings of power...oh wait, much better

This is how you create an alternate LOTR story, no bullshit or woke agenda.
How is the new series woke
@@tylerparker1959 He probably means
everyone isn't white, the women don't have big tits and keep falling over, ethnic minorities don't get killed off for the sake of it and a white guy doesn't come in to save the day. 🤔😏.
Really though, he needs to get used to it, because this style of doing things isn't going anywhere. These productions and Hollywood studios, are mostly there to control the minds of people and push agendas, but it's dressed up as entertainment.
Once Tom Cruise stops making Mission Impossible and his style of movie, its over.
@@tylerparker1959 people's idea of woke is them having a black character.. it's honestly a dumb thing to people to complain about......
@@j-s-m considering all the humans in the Southlands should be Middle Eastern or Mongolian looking.
I have no issue with the actors, my issue is with the directors lying and using them as a shield to deflect criticism.
@@tylerparker1959 are you really asking that fucking question?
This game looks so much better written than new amazon LOTR.
They really turned my boy Sauron into a Sith for a video game
Exactly what he reminds me of
I mean, isn't he basically a sith?
I thought this was a movie and I was gonna ask why it looks like a video game.
That's a badass video of him watching his family die to become a true wraith
How exactly did he become a wraith?
@@gnarly3000 he watched his wife and child die before he was killed. A wraith is a spirit of vengeance. It said that what type of ghost you become is based off the emotion your feeling at the time of death
This is better than this Amazon Prime shit
Still a better fanfic than rings of power would ever be.
Epic! Would love more LOTR stuff!
I'm kinda burnt out on it myself. I would like to see a whole new fantasy series personally
@@jayman9168 ok?
@@calmondey4214 ok?
All new is Fan Fiction
@@morfruse nah Ok
This looks more like a movie than a PC game. I have never heard of it, but wow.
The games were Shadow of mordor, followed by its sequeul, Shadow of war.
Even tho this game is very unfaithful to the actual lore its story is so much better than Rings of Power so far
🤦
that aint sauron, thats darth vader with a different voice 😂
This is what the series should of been
The show isnt even bad though. And there still has to be build up for a fight.
Stop crying lotr as a whole is not even that good, the series is okay
@@Paredinho1 no
@@JerryRiverofCars no
@@JerryRiverofCars its absolutely garbage
This was a great great game. One of the best.
Instead of rings of power season 2 why not turn this into a tv show done right how sick would this be
This game series raped the LOTR lore just as hard as Rings of Power.
This story better then rings of power 🤣🤣🤣😂
I thought this was a SoW sequel at first and got excited
1:08 isnt that the smart zombie from I AM LEGEND
celebrimbor losing the ring is truly the most pain scene to see in middle earth
Balrog's just might be the most intimating enemy by appearance
Dude is mutant af for someone who is the same race as Gandalf.
The Valar and Maiar all had varying levels of power between them. Melkor was the strongest of the Valar (before he reduced himself to Morgoth pouring all his energy into the world), and Sauron is probably the strongest Maia apart from Eonwe and MAYBE Melian. In fact, Sauron at his strongest (Second Age with the Ring pre-Akallabeth) was stated to be mightier than Morgoth at his weakest (War of Wrath, end of the First Age).
Why is this so much better than Rings of Power?
Better ??? ... That Video-Game-Cinematic is ridiculous ...
That's cooler than the Amazon one
I love how they used Peter Jackson’s rendition of the Balrog
I remember playing one of these on the PS4 years ago but none of these video clips were in the game. Anyone remember what all the games in this series were called?
Epic game by the way of my all time favorites!!!!
Middle earth shadow series. Fist one was shadow of modor, second was shadow of war. I think both are currently on sale on psn store or included in PS plus extra.
Pretty sure these are from shadows of war
Trailers
@@matthewjennings5093 i wish it was on sale on steam
Start of the video was from ending of Shadow of Mordor, rest was from sequel called Shadow of War
I'm watching this to try to redeem the rings of power show. This is so much better Oh my goodness
Too bad this isn’t “canon” in the Tolkien verse.
as it should be
It's a good story... Better than RoP so far
@@flaviomonteiro1414 facts. Not sure why they just didn’t do this instead
@@flaviomonteiro1414 Way better
@@Nightlizard1564 even if they did do this story Tolkien purists would seethe and cry even harder
We need another shadow of Mordor game! Number 3..
Crazy how an original spinoff story is more faithful to its source material than a billion-dollar budget "official" TV series of the same franchise
Thank God Keanu Reeves arrived with his glowing eyes.
What?
Ohhhh
Best comment :D
Best non canon history of all geek universe. More compelling than the original.
I would love to see them make a game going thru the fellowship to the end of the LOTRS I think with this format it would easily be the game of the year.
Well.... Sauron killed nearly Nobody in this Clip 😅
not true... sauron controlls the orcs the reason that they think and don't go wild is because they are all controlled by him which is proven because after the lord of the rings trilogy all the orcs scatter some kill themselfes some hide but most of them die and why? they could survive for so long and yet they all died so easily ? maybe they we'rent thinknig straight because they we're not controlled anymore. anyways my point is that technicaly him controlling all the orcs means that he killed everyone.
@@extrage3061 so the orcs killed an entire Army of Humans... Didn't see Sauron kill an army in this video
"Best i can do is 720p. Take it or leave it" /GamerClips
tbh, i like this celebrimbor better than in rings of power
Remember when we thought THIS was horrible use of the IP? What i wouldn't give for this to come back.
God yeah. Both the Middle-earth games and Rings of Power shit all over the established lore, but at least the Middle-earth duology is entertaining and actually maintains the ESSENCE of LotR. The same CANNOT be said for RoP.
Holy crap these cutscenes are awesome
I wish we could get a Unreal 5 of these games
After dark x I've grown from a man to a god, needs to be playing to this
Amazon, with a similar approach to this videogame, similar scale, energy, stakes, cast... but your humongous budget, Rings of Power would have made House of the Dragon look tiny. But you chose two incompetent show runners, and from there all the way down, everything crumbles. It's inevitable.
As a mage, I am quite intrigued by these “Rings of Power” 🌀💠🌟. We had many enchanted rings and artifacts in the realm I come from, so it is fascinating that legends about power rings should exist here as well.
So you identify yourself as a mage or what?
Or are you posessed
what realm are you from mage?

Celebrimbor looked so awesome in the games but I guess amazon had some different ideas. 😀
If they only make a game of the lord of the rings all three films and the hobbit with the meccanics and gameplay of shadow of mordor and shadow of war.... ladies and gentelmens....the perfection
They literally have perfect characters for most of the gameplay mechanics in the film, Legolas, Aragorn, even a few others
Two Towers and Return of the king both have excellent games of their own.
@@eddiecowen2624That's why they made Two Towers and Return of the King games with these characters.

LOTR RTS NEEDS TO BE MADE
The new Lord of the rings show is trash 😭 imagine they made the series based on this story 😳
That's because the Amazon series is a low budget fantasy drama made for streaming service, you can even see it from the costumes and props alone. People really have too high of a expectation if they think any TV show or even most movies can match the $300 mil budget that Peter Jackson did for the blockbuster LOTR trilogy, which is still widely considered one of the most ambitious and expansive movie production ever pulled off even today.
I’d accept animated series like clone wars for LOTR
His face reminds me of the leader zombie from I Am Legend. 😂
There was no ring made to compete with Suraun. Saurn forged the one ring, not elf nor man forged it. This contradicts Tolkien's stories
aCtUaLlY...
yes, it does, and they make a point of explicitly stating the games are not cannon, unlike other current debatcheries of Tolkien's world(cough cough rings of power cough cough)
Amazing how both games are better than Rings of power, this cutscene alone is already better.
I always thought about giving this game a try 👀…just wasn’t sure if it was worth it or not
Totally worth it.
Get it when its on sale..
Absolutely worth it.
@@_graiderz2462 literally came out 6 years ago. It's probably like £5 😂
Still the best Lotr game so far, hope they'll drop a new one
Wat game is this please
Shadow of Mordor
Shadow of Mordor and it’s sequel Shadow of War
you should have made the ring smaller. so it wont fall out of your finger again next time lol
Who is that at the beginning?
Yes i think so
Probably a placeholder character for the black hand of Sauron before they were finished making the first game
I notice a curious lack of Sauron destroying an entire army of humans battle scene in this video.
Better than Rings of Power by a milestone.
