It's even slightly possible some unknown person will step up and improve things. At this point, I wonder if the new AIs should be given a crack at the writing. Rings of Power: presented by ChatGPT.

Also, if I recall correctly, only one Elephant made it into Italy. Hannibal's elephants were North African (now extinct) so even smaller than the African elephants we are used to today. They must have arrived in Spain by crossing the straits though so water transport less hard on them than crossing the Alps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASOIAFrelatedusername Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) Looks rough and from what I could gather, the gameplay does not impress either. The writing will have to save it. The fact that the publisher decided to charge extra for the elves speaking Sindarin (and I suspect that this will only be NPC chatter) and a "Lore compendium" does not inspire confidence either.

Nothing to do with Rings of Power, of course, but Middle-Earth Enterprises and Wizards of the Coast have collaborated on a one-off LotR-themed M:TG set.

Ser Drewy Posted May 17, 2023 Author Share Posted May 17, 2023 https://www.polygon.com/23723747/lord-of-the-rings-amazon-mmo-announcement A new LOTR MMO is coming from Amazon studios. Although I believe this is a new new LOTR MMO because they cancelled their last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrddin Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 (edited) Which is funny, considering LOTRO is still limping along. Granted it's finally past the end of the book series (I think... ) and is now dipping into more obscure areas of lore for expansions. ETA: *The Mordor expansion came out in 2019. They've been doing post-Sauron, parallel, and pre-quel content since. Edited May 17, 2023 by Myrddin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
