I even read the Who Was book about J.R.R. Tolkien who started this series. The Shire is fraternal to Worchestershire and Buckinghamshire along with Bree, Minas Tirith and lots of other places in Middle-Earth to resemble medieval times.
There was already Lego The Lord of the Rings and Lego The Hobbit. Played one, almost ready for the other. I enjoyed both main trilogies and the Amazon original series set before both and I claim the language, Elvish and Orcic to both be mythical like Parseltongue, Minionese and the Na'vi language.
Why the fuck don't they make a DECENT Lord of the Rings game? An open world set in middle earth where you create a character of the species you want and build them
Wtf you mean looks beautiful? The interior scenes specially would be below average in the mid 2000s. Viva Piñata has better textures and lighting than this and that's a 2006 game.
The game looks like it has a lot of potential to be cute, cozy, and fun regardless of whether you're a fan of LOTR or not (I'm not but this still appeals to me). However, I'd be lying if the production value didn't seem like it was... less than what was needed? >.< I mean graphically I think Fable on the original Xbox is far superior to this. It may, in fact, even be able to run on the original Xbox and GameCube.
@@Emmaline91 Fools will now of course argue that this is FaNtAsY and of course everything goes in fantasy. Now, if that is the case, why not include Klingons, purple aliens, Godzilla and Robots into this game?
You'd think after Gollum they learned their lesson. Clearly not. Animations, models, all look terrible. I get that they're going for a cartoony look but that doesn't excuse this... Those faces are going to give people nightmares. Who okayed this for release? Who looked at this trailer and thought this was okay to put out? Seriously, fire whoever that was... The art looks like it was generated by a cheap AI. The animations look like they were shat out by a North Korean slave farm. I feel really bad for whoever is working on this as after their studio shuts down, they'll be out of a job. If I were them, I'd start looking now and abandon ship. With leadership this incompetent, they're going to sink anyway.
@@veliustactics9133 Awww. is anticipatory obedience soldier for DEI agendas making fun of things he does not understand? Things like historical accuracy, Tolkien, European mythology etc etc. But no: Let's just call everybody who points out blatant pandering and agendas of forced diversity r***cist. Good boy.
Another very random and niche kinda game for the lotr series :/ i really cant believe and understand why we are getting these kinds of games… nothing for me so ill skip this one just like the last 4-5 lotr games
This... doesn't look good. The art style looks more suited for the PS2 in a bad way, plus the inclusion of non-white Hobbits (Middle Earth is a distinctly English mythos AND the Hobbits are only known to be in the northern areas of Middle Earth before you point out the Haradrim, get over it.)
this looks barely fun and sooo cookie cutter lmao why bother. there are 5 million cosyTM wholesomeTM games on the market and they dont have a single thing to differentiate themselves other than their IP.
Just watch this trailer again from a gameplay and graphic point of view and forget the lotr branding.. it looks awfull and boring. Ring of powers,the gollem game... you cant just pick this IP and deliver us dog shit and expect us to buy it..
They really don't know how to market these movies or do proper merchandise. This looks like a joke. The shire is one of the most memorable places of Middle-Earth. Not THIS
И всё же я не понимаю, зачем делать хоббитов черными. Ибо что в сериале что вот в игре, ну не идет хоббитам быть черными. Не смотрится это блин. ... Still, I don't understand why hobbits should be black. Because whether in the series or in the game, it doesn’t suit hobbits to be black. Damn it doesn't look good.
Tales Of The Uncanny Valley! While this trailer hasn't 100 percent killed my enthusiasm, 'alpha footage' of animations and textures is a really, really bad idea - as is any use of gen AI that the casual viewer has to consider was used to make this odd looking thing. The narrator starts out English and ends up American. 'Foraging friendships' is either the worst pun ever or something only Chat GPT could come up with on a bad day. The invitation to 'wishlist' is interesting as I went to GOG and there's no GOG store page.

Orlando Bloom who played Legolas and Will Turner, I will hire to voice Donald Worthington.
Can't wait! It's been so long since I had a release for my Gamecube!
Land Paste can turn the world of The Lord of the Rings real once summoned.
Finally, a new PS2 game by the looks of it!
Development takes a while
There was already Lego The Lord of the Rings and Lego The Hobbit. Played one, almost ready for the other. I enjoyed both main trilogies and the Amazon original series set before both and I claim the language, Elvish and Orcic to both be mythical like Parseltongue, Minionese and the Na'vi language.

Lord of The Rings online? It wasn't that bad at the time
My dad and I would love to play this together if there ends up being multiplayer.
Pegi 7? No weed?
Legally distinct from marijuana.
Looks beautiful but I hope they work on the character designs a little bit, they look very dated with the sharp polygonal edges on the faces, etc.
Yeah, and those facial animations definitely need some work. Anytime they give those big, wide smiles, they look like they're gonna go for my neck...

@@heinz8233 idgaf what Viva Piñata looks like. Nor your opinion. I shared mine, to me this looks like a beautiful game, now kindly F off.
I'm down for some Hobbit Moon 64
I could see this working well in an Animal Crossing kind of way. Could also see it being a $30 mobile game. Really hope it’s the former.
Who pays 30 dollars for a phone game?
iPhone has games more then that now
I hope the characters look cuter in the final version.
That's a mobile game, right? RIGHT?!
Can't wait to find a ring while fishing, and turn into Gollum!
Be still, my cozy game loving, hobbity heart!
Thanks for putting this on Steam not have it a EGS exclusive like the Moria dwarf game
I sure can't wait to play Tales of the Shire - A the Lord of the Rings™Game
Yeesh

I was excited for this, but the character design turns me off from it unfortunately.
Hobbit Stardew Valley sounds amazing.
Yikes this looks like it's 2 decades old
While the graphics do look a little dated, this game is basically what I've always dreamt about since I was a kid. Looking forward to it.
This looks like a nightmare!
THIS LOOKS SO GOOD GRAHHHHH
So cosy, so adorable, already in-love with it!!
This looks like a cheap mobile game. What a let down.
I thought you were being sarcastic, but then I watched this trailer, and I take it back. You are spot on.
Still looks better than stardew valley & that game sold millions
On is a sprite based 2d game made by one guy and the other....is not. Not a very apt comparison.
I have never seen a mobile game that looks like this. What are you smoking?
@@Zerox392 dude, resident evil 4 remake is a mobile game now. Educate yourself before opening your mouth. You just make yourself look dumb.
OMG YES LET ME PLANT MY ACORN 😭
Finally a new Tales game!
It’s not on steam yet? This will be multiplayer right?
Animal Hobbit Crossings?
Majority female Hobbits
A couple of black and minority thrown in as well.
Did the men die off in a war and get invaded?
Gotta be "inclusive" and not historically accurate for the woke
@@Emmaline91 Fools will now of course argue that this is FaNtAsY and of course everything goes in fantasy. Now, if that is the case, why not include Klingons, purple aliens, Godzilla and Robots into this game?
OH MY GOD I NEED TO KNOW WHEN
I don't like the character models but this could be a nice "animal crossing" or farming style game.
Of course the black hobbits XDDDDD
Fae Farm Alpha 0.0.3?
Hobbit animal crossing lets gooo
Nothing about this got me excited to play the game. It looks pretty scuffed to be honest.
😢 this is such a big miss, so sad to see the franchise reduced to something like this
It's Private Division. They publish awesome games. I have hope, it can't possibly be worse than Gollum.
You are putting the bar way too low
damn, this doesn't look good really at all.
Neither does your grammar, mate.
Where are the shadows?
I didn't expect much from this, but I definitely hoped for "not this"
Coop please
*cope
Can't find on steam to wishlist
Better for you i guess 😂 stop supporting these half baked games bruv, we lotr fans deserve so much better than this
very excited for this!
WoW. The trailer was so boring! I can't imagine how boring the game has to be.
Looks like a mobile phone game with AI Ian Mckellan voice over.
omgomgomgomg this looks so cute
What a waste of the franchise.
All edge, no point.
Well I like these kinds of games.
I love the concept but thought we would at least get movie cannon art direction... not whatever this is.
This looks good!
These graphics are a huge miss
This looks like garbage
WHY THEY KEEP DOING THIS TO LOTR 😢😢😢
Tolkien estate (can't really call them family, at this point) are whores.
Wtf is going on with the Lotr franchise? Golum was 1 thing but lotr fans are NOT the demographic for this
They are taking the most unteresting things about LotR and making games about this, while HP had a game that even won some awards.
Me, a LotR fan: "Oh awesome! A Hobbit cozy game!"
I've been playing Lord of the Rings Online on and off for 17 years and let me tell you that LOTR fans are exactly the demographic for this.
Are you crazy? Look at the comments, everyone is going to love this, and not just people that knows "only the movies". Everyone loves Hobbits.
I think you might be surprised.
I really love it❤ cant wait to play this beautiful game
A cozy Hobbit game? That's a pretty good idea, hopefully they didn't spend too money on it's development 'cause it ain't gonna be a big seller lol...
Yaaaasss!!!
LOTR version of Animal Crossing? Yeah, I’m in.
I'm sorry but this looks terrible.
It isn't the april 1 today! Is this a joke? Pure shovelware!
Soy friki del señor de los anillos pero no juego a esto ni loco
Black hobbit? Are you serious?
How did Weta Workshop approve these character models :(
African Hobbits? I'm out.
Stop crying
Diversity makes us strong. Cowardly racism makes us weak.
@@prairie4929stop destroying European mythos.
Hobbits aren’t real people, mushbrain
@@Hero_Of_Old You just don't fucking know the Tolkien's mythos.
lol what
Graphics so bad you've turned me into a graphics andy to complain about them. Dark Cloud 2 looks better my dudes.

Graphics looking a little too mobile gamey for me
PALIA- LoTR Version
Uuoouuoohh quickly apply brand to two-year-old trend. Soulless. Sorry if you're stuck working on it, keep grinding through.
I hope the graphics are getting another pass. I know the switch isn't a strong console but this needs a facelift.
is this gonna come on the epic store as well?
No one asked for this. Gollum 2.0

Imagine having that sad of a life that non-white hobbits makes you upset.
Agreed. Was interested but now I'm not.
here they come... 🙄😒

more woke crap ther were no gorilla hobbits
cry about it
So what the main hobbit in the trailer boy, girl, more woke made up crap. That aside I’m gonna wait and see reviews.
...i really hope those aren't the final graphics, yikes
