I know this should be in the information thread but I think it's too good to pass.



New in-game video showing various battles that will be taking place throughout the game. I cannot wait now it looks awesome, especially play as a Troll and destroying Rivendell.

Maybe I'm being a bit sceptical but the fighting seems a bit sluggish to me and I can see this game just turning into a 'hack and slash'. I mean, if you're an archer, there doesn't seem any way to aim with a little dot showing where you're going to hit I don't see why they wouldn't put it in, as it would make archery a lot more appealing than just hitting a button and standing in the direction of where you want it to go.

Don't get me wrong, the game looks good visually and it would be good to relive the battles from the books, but I haven't seen enough to convince me yet that the actual gameplay will be good enough to make this a good game; not just a game that you need to be a die-hard LOTR fan to play.

I'm not to worried about that, I have a lot of trust in thse guys. Only bit I didn't like too much was the horse riding as it looked a bit shaky. But we've got to remember it's still a WIP.

Hmm... suppose so. Oh, and I didn't particularly want to put this in the Information Thread, just in case you wanted to keep it information only, but the first post is looking awesome Very good work on it.
