the story is actually pretty good if you are paying attention to it,it makes you feel so sad for smeagol and knowing his character into much more depth. i feel like if they took 1 more year with the same story but different gameplay the game wouldn't had been bullied. also the parkour is good but it needed more moves. voice actors did splendid also,so if you dont jump into the hate of this game you can see some great things in it like the story
@@turnbull832 same I put on the long play with no commentary to try and put me to sleep instead of using melatonin and it put me to sleep in the first 10 minutes
They really should have just had Gollum tripping balls 24/7. Like... the world through his eyes is some unhinged insanity where the guy isn't even 'holding on by a thread' the thread freakin' snapped and he's been in free fall ever since.
*2023’s Lord Of The Rings - Gollum is the latest Gollum.* Players get to jump into the shoes of John Gollum as he performs a series of Gollums to Gollum out of his location. The Gollum introduces several intriguing Gollum mechanics such as movement, couching, a Gollum bird, and an innovative new Gollum system - Where your Gollum is completely up to you. How you choose to navigate Gollum in this innovative Gollum world will leave you wanting Gollum and more. With features such as Gollums eyes, hair and movement, gamers will surely be talking about *this* Gollum for many to come. It Gollums without saying, this is an early contender for Gollum Of The Year.
If there's one key thing I've learned about developing video games from this, it's that, if your game relies on dialogue, put the dialogue before the load checkpoint of a failable section of the game so you don't hear the same paragraph of conversation on repeat.
The exploration in this game (just from watching videos) reminds me a lot of Star Wars Jedi Survivor (though obv not even close to as well done). And that game sold extremely well.
@@DBZpfpguy You mean you don’t like passionless games made by charlatans masquerading as game devs? You mean that you don’t want to spend $60 on a game that is worse than most $30 indie games? That’s insane.
Thank you for uploading these full streams to youtube 🙏 I'm having difficulties watching through twitch since it sometimes buffers (I rarely ever buffer on youtube / netflix 1080p so I dont think it's because of my connection), I'll get 20-30+ of the same ads from only 1 stream (if the ads varies I can bear it, but only transformer ads for a month 💀), and I cant watch it in 1.5x speed on twitch mobile app. So once again thank you charlie and team!
All of these facial animations are so fucked up. They animated them to talk but then they snap back to their default state immediately after the line. It's so awkward.
It’s one of those games where I can tell that not even a single person even tried to put a personal touch on it. Not a single person even tried to push a single aspect of this turd. Not the voice acting, character design, art development, scenery, level design. Not a single person on the project stood out like they cared.
honestly the Ice Age 3 cash grab game for PS2, in my memory, was less sleep inducing than this game. Yeah it was almost the same game at times, but it had variety and the character being good at acrobatics made sense
Considering the fact so many people are talking about that game I thought there are more people that were interested in it, but after checking steam nobody was really interested in the game at all, which is good. I still cant believe they are selling it for 50$ tho, it looks like fanmade game made by like 5 people max, graphics look horrible and climbing mechanics were more polished in prince of persia from 2008
When I checked the first day Charlie put a gameplay vid (which was the first time I've ever even heard of this game) I checked the player count on steam. All time peak was ~500.
It's kinda funny how there's like 1000 characters in LOTR but even games that don't focus on movie characters kinda do (Third Age basically copied Gimli and mixed Boromir with Aragorn lmao)
@@matthayes4128 I just heard that hobbits were lucky at least it's some explanation for smeagal getting away. Also not only are hobbits killing another balancing it out since luck couldn't be on both sides
The story was written
The code was coded
The animation was animated
Truly one of the games of all time
I'm not 100% sure the code was coded

this made me laugh harder than it should have lol. thank you, I needed it
9 out of 10 doctors reccomend this game to insomniacs across the world.
Only 4 likes? Let me change that.
And the other 1/10 passed out
I genuinely just put this video on to fall asleep to because it worked with the first part.
@@turnbull832 same I put on the long play with no commentary to try and put me to sleep instead of using melatonin and it put me to sleep in the first 10 minutes

Yep, remember Senua's Sacrifice? Something similar would work here
instead they made this boring shit
This is 2006 mandatory stealth section game design.
4:05 dude what a great start. The immediate death by jumping too far, the basketball sound, the classic abrupt death screen
A bad game is never late, Charlie White. Nor is it early, it arrives precisely when it means to.

But does Gollum have what it takes to really Gollum above the rest⁉️
Truly one of the Gollums of all time
Gollum
Gollum is the type of game that will be remembered for generations to come due to its life-changing experience
Waltuh
or life ending due to boredom
Just like Death Stranding, literal history
The thing is you’re not wrong. You’re vague enough that literally anything could be inferred from it. Well done.
Gandalf's "Too much about too little" line sums up this game very well.
That's deep. Nice

What sucks is the publisher is just gonna be like "durrr guess people don't like 3D platformers anymore"
The exploration in this game (just from watching videos) reminds me a lot of Star Wars Jedi Survivor (though obv not even close to as well done). And that game sold extremely well.
they should go back to point and click adventures
kudos to charlie for being determined to finish a game no matter how dogshit it is
1:23:26 And of course the “crate” is just two assets grafted together
brother you *came back* to the Gollum game? Curse you, curse you because now I feel compelled to finish watching it to suffer as you did.
Game of the year , the only game that helps you sleep
These Graphics are top notch exactly what you would expect from 2023
And a game that recommends something like a RTX 3070 (using DLSS quality mode) lol
This is the 2023 version of the ET game from the Atari
The Orc armor in this game is so hilariously terrible, like what orc wears a gigantic dome hat as tall as itself?
surprised u didnt fall asleep
Officially the hardest game to watch fully
2005 PS2 Madagascar game's stealth mission in the night of the zoo is much better than the entirety of this excuse of a "game".
I remember that level all too well, that Madagascar game was so fun. This game, however, is ONE big joke!
@@DBZpfpguy You mean you don’t like passionless games made by charlatans masquerading as game devs? You mean that you don’t want to spend $60 on a game that is worse than most $30 indie games? That’s insane.
This game will be on the news for being the cause of the incoming global wave of narcoleptic attacks and explosive diarrhea in a couple weeks
Its bad that the best part of this game is the achievement art 😂
looking forward for gollum speedruns
gollum speedrun scene will be the dawn of humanity and everyone will become insane
i feel like the drake ai lyrics decribe perfectly how lord of the rings fans feel about gollum
world design is the only decent part of the game
i commend Charlie's tenacity pushing through with this absolute poop ball.
He plays a lot of games and I mean a lotttt I don't these days I rather hang out with girls
Looking forward to watching more of this trainwreck later lol. Thank you for doing Gods work buddy. 😂
"Buddy" 🤓

I honestly don't see the problem with this game, it doesn't look too bad for a Ps3 tech demo!
I like how shmeagol just keisters the key after the owl grabs it. Pretty immersive prison simulator tbh
Keester** would be a more appropriate spelling my good sir.

Did a full on "WOOOO" when I saw this upload, man this game is like watching a car crash in slow motion. Way better than even the best sleeping pills!
2 hours 15 minutes that looks like straight from Crash Bandicoot warped lol.

Who else had a laughing fit whenever Charlie died 😂
Another great clip Charlie, love the short clip format videos you been making like these.
I was looking forward to this game keyword being “was” glad I didn’t pick it up
you always make me smile even through gameplay’s of terrible games you rock charlie 🎉
why tf do the cutscenes look worse than the gameplay💀
This game already need a remaster
Gollum: Gymnastics Champion. Just waiting for the ribbons.
NGL these VODS are my new sleep therapy/ASMR lol.
Hang on. What does it matter if they go to The Shire? Frodo is already gone. They won't find him there. WTF would it matter if he told them?
i love how charlie said in the first clip he uploaded that he def not gonna finish it, when some1 from chat asked him haha

What are you talking about? Jesus is the one playing the game.
I think that smaegal has been trustworthy to people because since he's technically a hobbit, he has luck on his side since hobbits have that ability
Is that why they never die unless old age or a hobbit is killing another hobbit?

It takes penguinz0 approximately 4 minutes to shit which is the most entertaining thing in this video
It's too much from reptile brain I'm going to have a seizure
climbing simulator fr
You're a brave soldier, Charlie.
Dope people still have interest in the ps3
Climbing simulator?
The only funny thing is the rag doll on death for some of them at least breaks the insomnia
Do the game awards have a category of boring game of the year i think it's gotta take 1st place!! 🖒 let's GO!!!
ITS THE DAUGHTER!
I wonder if this is going to be an ET moment for gaming
I don't get the hate. Everyone loved this game when it was with cats
There Best work was on The Menu Screen
Why didn’t they add combat like it makes no sense, Gollum is fuckin nuts, should have various rocks and shit to use 😂
Clips channel, posts full on 20min to 2 hours videos
How are you all going?
This game is goated
It is literally Stix.
hey charlie i love your videos !!
I didn't think it was possible to make a game that was more boring than Death Stranding, but god damn have I been proven wrong
Ikr 💀
How is this game boring yet games like limbo get nothing but praise
good shit
Sleep simulator
jesus is playing his game (faith)😄😄😄
I think it’s growing on him
Why does he keep playing it 💔
You're gonna give yourself a brain aneurysm at this rate
