Best game trailer ever made imo. Come back and watch this a few times every year. The music, editing, voice acting all comes together so well.

Troy baker is so talented how does he sound so different in every game!

2016, this trailer still gives me goosebumps

[glorfindrasborgia]

This is one of my favorite game-trailers of all time. The music, Celebrimbor's voice acting, just everything fits together so perfectly.

When Sauron said, "Celebrimbor, " there were like fireworks going off in my head. THIS GAME LOOKS SO AMAZING. I IT.

[lordfaust]

oh my...i actually ignored this game for a long time but when i saw these trailer i really think this has a great story to tell

[starkilr]

Can we just appreciate how great Sauron looks on both his armor and his fair guise?

[brandonberry]

So addicted to this game, even after beating it I still go around mordor just slaughtering Uruks for fun, the DLC looks so amazing!!

This trailer is better and more faithful to Tolkien than The Rings of Power.

Well for all those people who were wondering exactly what this ghost's beef with sauron was now you know. He was the guy who crafting all the rings.

this trailer sold me. celebrimbor and annatar in one trailer... that's much more than i could hope for <3

[anongrey]

One LotR game to rule them all? I think so.

[UltramegaMA]

My mind is telling me please don't mess this up.
This is how LOTR game should have been made and I hope it lives up to it's expectation.
(Battle for Middle Earth was/is amazing)

2022, still playing this game, still one of the best trailers I've seen.

[kroyatful]

Celebrimbor is also my favorite character in this. Just has such amazing quotes.

[Monkayh]

I SHAPED THE HISTORY OF MIDDLE EARTH, I CRAFTED THE RINGS OF POWER

[BlindSociety]

They are really good at getting people excited about their game. I am positively itching to play this.

[JIRWINKOGaming]

Am I the only one that finds the part with Annatar/Sauraon speaking to Celebrimbor to be the highlight of the trailer? Just the way that line was delivered combined with the gleam in his eyes was epic. "Only you could accomplish such art, Celebrimbor."

[jebosamvasjako]

It was one of the best games i ever played.

First of all, spoiler alert as this is Tolkien lore right here:

One thing that bothers me is, Celebrimbor only crafted the Three Rings, the rings for the Elves and not the other ones. The other Rings of Power were made by his fellow smiths, which Sauron corrupted to gain the influence over them. Sauron finally made the One Ring which would control all the Rings of Power, except the Three made by Celebrimbor, as those were not touched by Sauron. Upon sensing the betrayel of Sauron, Celebrimbor hid the Three from Sauron, while the other Rings of Power (16 in total) were retrieved by Sauron. Those 16 rings were then send to the Dwarves (7 of them) and Men (9 of them). The Three eventually were obtained by Elrond, Galadriel and Gandalf, capable of sensing Sauron through the rings, but Sauron could not take them over.

So, the game shows seven rings and says Celebrimbor is the crafter of the Rings of Power. Is it too early to call it a contradiction in lore or is the trailer just a little bit confusing?
