Thanks for dropping by for our latest review!

[Bricksniper]

It's crazy that games for PS2 are still being released!

[JUICEgoons]

I like how one of your positives is “you can throw a rock” 10/10 game.

[TrueHeroAriel]

Let’s be honest who thought this was gonna be a good game

[sane]

Didnt think redfall could be beaten, but gollum takes the cake. I also dont doubt we will get another contender to beat gollum as well.

[CaptainCanuck]

Gollum makes Redfall look like Doom Eternal.

[Xayjohns]

Redfall: "You shall not pass!"
LOTR Gollum: "Oh, my precious..."

[GuruChaz]

Congrats to the junior high student that finished their programming final project. You will be going places in 10 years.

[leoleo]

Game looks like a PS3 prototype even on release. This is frightening.

[LagoonKnight]

They dropped the elf bread on this one y'all.

[Sozitante]

this breaks my heart. The developers otherwise only make games that are pure art and full of attention to detail. I wonder what happened?

[cupidstunt]

Glad I watched this as was going to buy it later 👍

Immagine having to play lord of the rings gollum after reviewing tears of the kingdom

[matthewcopley]

You had a gold mine with rich thick veins with your Tolkien Lore, you have had mod creators who have loved the Lore and have the creativity to make mods for the Total War games, you had alot of success with BFME 1, BFME 2 and BFME 2 RotWK, they are even still played to thos day and the few copies circulating are quite valueable (mainly because of licensing), you then had a new direction that people liked in a what if sceneries with Shadow of Mordor, and Shadow of War. You then have one of the biggest untapped potential you have ever had in a very long time, The Nemisis System.


Imagine a Nemisis System Fueled Lord of the Rings CK 3, or Total

All the possibilities and those options to make money, grow the universe, and still make something good, it did not have to be triple A, but a good double A would have been all fans would need to set off for Middle Earth again.


Instead of all those possiblities, you took a giant pooperscooper, grabbed a big old steamer, threw some hair on it, and then tried to polish that big piece 💩. How anyone thought this was a good idea is beyond my understanding!

[kplante]

What a shame… I was hoping for a good game. Thanks for the good review. I’ll be passing on this one.
Thanks for sharing…!

[TRONiX]

They should of started a series with a nice Hobbit story just as saruman starts to conquers the land.

[TheSkyMasterZ]

Wasnt the minimum requirements for this game a 3060? Thats wild.

[jamesdenton]

The studio is about a 100 person team - hardly fair to call it a “Triple A release”
It does look awful though

[tylerayers]

I just don't understand the art style at all. Why make him look goofy instead of creepy and menacing?

[graemewatkin]

2004 called and asked for their graphics back
