I had no interest in this game but now this game is looking AMAZING and I dont even like LOTR.

 

 

I love the wraith powers and i love the fact you can change the story like that.

Looks real fun but still on the fence tho since I'm not that big a fan of the books. Still the game looks beautiful and the gameplay looks assassins creed type fun.

[iEatTacos]

Looks really cool. I might give it a try. I love lotr

[lucario23]

Batman with a Lord of the Rings skin.

AC copycat going for gimmicy customizeable story, 

 

will proubly skip this game.

[DexterousGecko]

shameless AC clone with a LotR paint job? no thanks.

[Auzzie Wingman]

Almost forgot about this one. Should be a good game, although I think the devs are one of those who've made bugged games before.

Cool, can't wait to play it on my WiiU. Actually liked the hack-n-slash gamecube lotr games.

Well it's not coming out for Wii U, sorry man.

Stoked for this game (although does look like shameless assassin's creed/batman rip-off.

 

But to be honest, combining Assassin's Creed and the Arkham games with Lord of the Rings is like a dream come true for me!

[Gamejunkie]

It looks really interesting and I certainly will give it a go. Dismissing it because it uses gameplay elements from Assassin's Creed and Batman is just silly and ridiculous. If we all took that kind of attitude we wouldn't be playing any games as most games copy elements of previous games. If anything its a testament to how good the gameplay of those games is.

I'm just hoping this Nemesis system they hope to plant into the game meets expectations. It shouldn't be hard to do, but to make it so you really feel the impact of your choices would be nice.

 

Also, I hope shadow jumping or whatever it is that lets you teleport to enemies isn't overly broke. Then again, I don't want it to be restricted.

The gameplay doesnt just LOOK like asscreed. It looks waaaaaayyyy too much like asscreed, like, same code too much. I know nothing about this, is this being made by ubisoft? If not, I see a lawsuit coming.

[Auzzie Wingman]

It's being made by.... I can't remember. Not Ubisoft, or at least not the developer.

[thechamp80]

Being made by Monolith, WB is publishing.

[Expansion Pak]

I REALLY don't give carp about LOTR but this game actually looks impressive.  I actually like how they fused AssCreed with Batman and I might have to check this one out.

[3Dude]

Yeah... My eyes still got it.

Hmm, perhaps the developers modelled too closely to AC/Batman they didn't realise this was happening. I don't know, I don't work there.

Im pretty dang good, even though ive barely touched anything asscreed (I still recognize it through its prince of persia original code base, that asscreed came from, far superior games, an absolute shame they watered such wonderful controls down to auto play for the brainwashed masses) though I could get tricked by very similar, which is why i did a quick google to see what all else noticed. this guy though, is 100% cyborg accurate, this guy has had this stuff burned into his retinas, working with, staring at these assets every day, probably hundreds of hours a week towards the end crunch.

If he says those are asscreed code and assets they are using, they 100% are.

Well, we shall toast to the superhumans then!
