The State of Lord of the Rings Games is Embarrassing
With the upcoming release of The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria, it’s time to take a look at the current state of Lord of the Rings games.
Return to Moria is the only upcoming Lord of the Rings game currently in development with is ridiculous given that it doesn’t look particularly promising and this new trailer comes only two weeks after the critical failure of Gollum. Where are the plethora of triple A video games that this franchise should be getting? Let’s talk about it.

    I love the Xbox version of Morrowind. Got so fast with that UI.

    Apparently OpenMW and the Morrowind Code Patch patch this, but at least on the version I'm using, fortify intelligence does this instead. I'm going to guess this alternative doesn't work in the base game.

    Other solution is restoration combo of Fortify Intellegence+Fortify Magicka. Such spell aren't only restoring magicka but it's also give you additional temporal points of magicka beyond your maximum for every cast so it's possible to get something like 2000/150 after some casts or any amount you like.

    So long as you don't have any effects that buff intelligence over 100 drinking a couple of Sujamma does the same trick all though you'll have to wait 60 seconds for the effect wear off. They're a bit heavy to carry around but you find them pretty commonly in loot crates or from traders and bar tender in town.

  • @jaketripp7934

    whatever you do, do not use Damage Intelligence!!! Damaging will permanently keep your magic at 0. Draining will wear off eventually and bounce back once it's over.

    If you're having issues with this because your main attribute is intelligence, it will only bring it down to 10 therefore won't work. To get around this, add drain intelligence 100-100 twice. This will fix it and make spell work

  • @AnonYmous-mm9di
    @AnonYmous-mm9di 6 місяців тому

    Figured this out on my own last year. Setting the duration for 2 seconds helps a lot. Additionally having 100 base intelligence helps as well. You can put this spell on weapons, allowing you to gain magic on hit. You can even bypass the wombburn effect of the atronach sign by coin constant effect damage intelligence 1 pt and restore intelligence 2 pts. It tricks wombburn on rest and wait

  • @nocturnalsilhouette6756
    @nocturnalsilhouette6756 7 місяців тому

    I find it interesting how the Cuirass of the Savior's Hide cancels out this spell; the cast will work without the replenishment. even in taking advantage of the game mechanics, one can still be kept in check by intended game design.

    There's another way to restore magica through spell. It takes two spell for it to work - fortify magica and fortify inteligence. Set them to 100 and after each successfull cast you'll get +40 magica. The good part is that the amount of magica will stack and exceed your maximum. So you can have thousands of magica points, effectively making sure that you won't ever run out of it.

    Do you have to a spell that has >= your max intel or can you simply to a 1 point spell and on resetting intel it resets your whole magicka? Rephrased: Will the magicka reset be proportional to the drained intel attribute?

    • @fantasywind3923
      @fantasywind3923 Рік тому

      EXACTLY! :) A proper triple A experience, open world single palyer RPG set in Middle-earth that would be both lore friendly and fun and engaging, in depth, good story, characters and NPC's it can be done with enough passion and respect for source material! The possibilities are endless it can be anything from something a la Gothic, Kingdom Come Deliverance hehe or Witcher 3 like as the monumental achievement showing how to do a proper adaptation of a book series into video game medium! Or Elder Scrolls type game or even Dragon Age style....or hell if nothing else then I'll take the Assassin's Creed formula, but please more lore friendly and canon compliant than the Shadow of Mordor/War those games were real lore butchery, one could do a sort of model on the later AC titles, so we can have anything from AC Black Flag like game (with elements of Odyssey and Origins and some of Valhalla) so we could have naval combat in Middle-earth setting, open world sailing on vast map, exploring isles and shores of Great Sea Belegaer, having sea battles with ships of Corsairs of Umbar (or sailing as one :)) one could even have some canonic events to play part in story (Thorongil commanding a fleet for raid on Umbar, Aragorn was commanding ships while serving in Gondor :)),....or a sandbox immersive one like...Red Dead Redemption 2 style! It's camping and hunting mechanics would fit well in a lotr game!

  • @DR0NNZ1
    @DR0NNZ1 Рік тому

    I’d love a lord of the rings rpg game like Skyrim & The Witcher 3 but honestly the middle earth Shadow games is the closest we are going to get of it like I don’t understand why someone can’t just pick it up and make a really good rpg or a good games in general, the hole lord of the rings franchise as a hole is in a bad state though I think

    • @fantasywind3923
      @fantasywind3923 Рік тому

      Shadow of Mordor and it's sequel have their problems (truth be told they are lore butchery of highest order) and they are more action than rpg hell the potential for making a proper open world RPG in Middle-earth is enormous! The lore alone would give enough material for several games the size and complexity of Witcher 3!!!! Various historical settings could be basis for entire series of games! But it depends which companies will hold the lotr game license still the potential is there problem is if any developer will have true passion for this world like CD Projekt had once! Lotr games imagine like set during wars with Angmar, entire Eriador in full detail to explore from Ice Bay of Forochel, to Misty Mountains from the sea to the frozen Northern Wastes it would be huge! And if it had also a sort of sandbox quality like say....Red Dead Redemption 2 with various vehicles to use, boats, carriages and horse drawn carts, coaches, various steeds (also one may imagine having the snow sleds of the Lossoth for the ice and snow covered northern lands of Forodwaith :)) then one could add other addons hehe entire expansions, using Moria and elven land of Lindon for side adventure!

      No I remember that game, there were actually a lot of middle earth games in the 2000’s. I was mostly talking about the history of middle earth games that have come out in the last 15 years. The release of these games has slowed down considerably. I would love to go back to a time where games from this franchise were more common. Something like a modern Lord of the Rings online is supposedly being developed by Amazon so we’ll see if that actually ends up happening. Here’s hoping!

  • @iangoodwin2103
    @iangoodwin2103 Рік тому

    To be clear there’s a very good chance Return to Moria may be a solid survival game, however it’s upsetting that this is the only game set in middle earth in development. I’m sure this won’t be anywhere near as bad as Gollum, but the fact that we have only have this and no triple A game is disappointing. Still looking forward to hopping online with some friends and trying this out. Fingers crossed 🤞 Amazon is also supposedly doing an MMORPG, however that was already canceled once so I’ll have a bit more hope once we get a trailer in a few years
