    This game is brilliant and should be treated as such. The player slowly descents into madness and turns into a screaming creature that talks to itself in self hatred, just like Gollum.

    In regards to the question of "how they got the license in the first place," the answer is pretty simple (and depressing). While Christopher Tolkien was still alive, he used to be really strict with the kinds of things the Tolkien Estate was allowed to sell licenses to, but as soon as he died, whoever took over from him just started licensing it to whoever wanted to give them money. This game (and the Amazon show...) were literally made over Tolkien's son's dead body, because he would never have said yes while he was alive.

    • @Prince__Teclis
      @Prince__Teclis Год назад +150

      I think whoever is in charge now just wants to get as much out of the licence now as possible over the next couple decades before the series becomes public domain.

      The whole game's development is weird, too. Daedalic Games has never made any game like this, before. The real question is HOW DID THEY GET THE LICENSE!? It doesn't make sense. They've made some small scale platformers, sure. So why the fuck are they making a 3D LotR game? Somebody at the Tolkien Estate approved this, and I hope they feel awful for it. Give the license to a developer that can handle that kind of expectation, not to mention the development, itself. I do not look forward to another waste of the LotR license be it from Daedalic or another studio.

    Let’s not forget the fact Gollum hadn’t heard his name for 600 years until the events of the Two Towers when Frodo calls him Sméagol. It sounded like an absolute foreign word to him, yet here he is before that referring to himself as Sméagol. Did they not at least watch the films?

    The sad thing is, I have seen people trying to defend this game. Claiming that its just a small indie team, so we should cut them some slack. Two problems with that: One, we live in a world where a single person can make a masterpiece like ULTRAKILL or Stardew Valley with basically zero budget, so a team with a budget of any size making this atrocity is inexcusable. Two, they are charging "AAA" prices for this game, so we need to judge as harshly as a "AAA" game.
    In the end, if it looks like shit, plays like shit, and runs like shit, no matter how you slice it, its gonna be shit.

      Comparing this to Ride to Hell is tricky in that they both have things that make one superior over the other.
      LOTR Gollum's "interesting" art design and the lore it's based on immediately make it better in one way, yet Ride to Hell actually allows you to interact with the world instead of having you move through level after level, even if done poorly.
      Both are painful to look at it. They both take the term boring to new heights.

      usually it goes, in no particular order:
      -no clear direction or end goal for the product
      -high developer turnover
      -no publisher oversight
      -QA not even being an afterthought
      -hands-off management or conversely poor/aggravating management
      -inexperienced developers
      -inflexible launch window
      I heard that Daedelic had a lot of staff leave either before or during this games development so that's probably the main factor. It'd still fall on management for not hiring enough capable staff and/or not allowing new staff to get accustomed to the systems they would be using(little to no training) yet expecting to meet goal markers for the project all the same.

    I’d be interested in a game about Sméagol’s corruption into Gollum and his slow descent into madness. It’s an aspect of the world of Hobbit and LOR that I don’t think is explored enough and I think it would make a very interesting story. They could even work the corruption into the gameplay by making Gollum move slower as the Ring weighs down on him until he can’t stand up anymore and making Gollum enter a kind of withdrawal period if he’s separated from the Ring for too long that gradually gets longer as the Ring corrupts him more and more.
    Instead, we got this broken mess that made us all feel like Gollum by punishing and torturing us until we went insane.
