Probably rated M, of course. I don't think Tolkien wanted THAT much blood in a game... still, looks pretty cool.

Saw the trailer, sure it looks awesome, but I got a rather bad experience about LOTR games (especially Conquest.

Anyhow, just wait and see...

"hope it turns out well, if not, ok then"

By the way, can't someone force that bastards to make an LOTR RPG or something that takes place in the 1st age? Would love to kick Morgoth around (and Feanor's sons of course)

The North would be quite enough to keep programmers busy for years, if they had a sense of scale.

Of course, distances would have to be scaled down quite a bit, since otherwise it would literally take DAYS to move your character across the map... unless there was a fast travel feature...

When you say the people behind Baldur's Gate, do you mean BioWare?

So, a Lord of the Rings RPG..... developed by BioWare.

Someone pinch me.
