    AJ: "Are those the orcs?"

    I need to game more like OJ to maximize the joy derived from gaming.

    So sad, that in modern gaming industry the new release trend is:
    -release the game in a broken state
    -apologize for the poor state it was released and promise to do better in the future
    -release patch hopefully in the first few weeks, that fixes some bugs but not all of them
    -the game might be in a playable state in a year or 2 if at all
    -repeat with the next title

      Broken or not, Gollum is still a bad game overall. Gollum is one of the worst characters not only in LOTR lore, but in literature in general. I don't know of anyone who's been a Gollum fan, so I don't know who this game is made for. Broken or not this game wouldn't sell.

      I think we also in part know why it happaned...the developer Daedalic Entertainment had no experience in making these types of games....hell this studio was known only for 2D point and click games!!!! So their first entry into stealth/platformier action adventure games would be highly risky.

    Looking at their previous games, which they seem to be very efficient at pumping out to a fair bit of positive acclaim, this is one of their first attempts at CGI visuals and I think the very first attempt at something non-isometric, non-side-scrolling and non-point-and-click. Not apologizing for them, of course, as I don't have the power to do so with it being valid, just saying I understand why they're struggling. Then again, BGS have dabbled in this exact thing for decades and still aren'tr able to produce something less than 50% jank.
