  • @darklord884
    @darklord884 4 роки тому +10

    I love how the cast essentially played the opposite of their characters in the game here.
    Big strong uruk--->spindly little goblin archer
    Gigantic dumb olog-hai--->cunning manipulative mage
    Elegant elven assassin------>big brutish olog defender
    I forgot who/what role Sam played in the game, but outside of Matt (who played a godlike being both in the game and here) everyon played as the polar opposite of their in-game versions and I love it.

      @gamester512 7 років тому +3

      Besides, they have shown so many interesting Uruks and Ologs that you might encounter, I'm so excited for Shadow of War that I'm practically bouncing off the walls....and I haven't felt that way about a game for a very long time, like back when I was still going to High School (which was about 11 years ago!).
      I mean, just look at "the Tower", "Tasty", "the Bard" etc. The Tower in particular looked and sounded amazing! I loved the lines they showed from him, where first he said this: "Before we do battle, know this: I will endure more pain than you can possibly fathom. The Tower's armor will see to that." And then, after getting recruited (when most other recruits say something like "I serve you, Bright Lord!"), he simply says: "You stand before....the Tower."

Just in general, Darin really kept up with Sam, Travis, and Laura, who happen to be my favorite players. So well done to him! And I loved Sam's lower voice and general awesomeness, Laura's adorable troll voice, and Travis's high-pitched goblin!
