The Lord of the Rings Gollum: The Untold Story Reveal Trailer | Game Awards 2021
Lord of the Rings is back with a trailer showing us Gollum/Sméagol as the protagonist. This game is The Lord of the Rings: Gollum: The Untold Story, and thus far has no release date.
This game is really exciting but the newly revealed look for Gollum just is not it I'm sorry. It doesn't look all that great and sticks out terribly from the rest of the world and its characters.
They gave us a game with the worst part of the lord of the rings…
Gollum looks weird and that doesn’t sound like Andy Serkis! Shame.
Why would anyone want to play as gollum, seems crazy
Ok so a couple of things to unpack here:
1) what is up with the voice? So many people out there who can do almost perfect Gollum impressions, and this is what they went with?
2) what is up with the animation? Gollum looks like he should be a character in a Tim Burton animated film whilst everything else looks really realistic. How can the graphics in a 20 year old film be better than a video game trailer in 2021? Like was this a deliberate design choice?
3) Gollum’s voice and animation in Shadow of Mordor was way better than this and that came out in 2014.
4) I am curious as to what kind of gameplay this will have. Like, if it’s a stealth game, then I can see it working. Not sure what the combat will look like, but it’ll have to be careful.
Why’s everyone so against this game it looks awesome
Looks fun
So far my favorite part of this is the voice acting. I love the clear differences between Smeagol and Gollum.
This makes sense. Gollum was corrupted by the materialism represented by the ring.
Perfectly represents Consoooom culture.
Is it me or the voice just isnt the same
If they couldn't get Andy Serkis, they could have at least gotten someone who could do a decent Gollum impression. That voice is kind of cringy.
I hope the dlc contains the arc between the hobbit and fellowship where gollum eats babies and children of the woodmen.
Can we just get a game that follows the main story or at least a remaster of the old games?
Come on…. At least use the same voice actor.
There are thousands of people who can do a Gollum impression spot on and these guys really missed
Why he look like that tho
I'm honestly hopeful. I've saved, conquered, pillaged, and sliced through Middle Earth so many times in so many different games. What I'm saying is, I'm not against a story set there that's not some large, epic quest – there are plenty of other games for that.
He sounds like dobby not gollum
You know what, I like who ever did the voice for Gollum in this. The distinction between him and Smeagul is well done, considering we're going to be spending the whole time stalking about as him.
o rosto desse gollum ta horrivel, e nao esta nada parecido com o original, ainda da tempo deles consertarem isso
This looks cool. I might get this
I love lotr
This looks so bad
Where's my Farmer Maggot game?
That's a crazy amount of dedication onto something that's gotta be a prank on Tolkien and vidya fans alike
