The only survival crafting game set in the Fourth Age of Middle-earth™️, the iconic fantasy world created by J.R.R. Tolkien
Key Game Features:
-Feel the Fellowship: Experience the Fellowship of the Dwarves like never before, with the rich lore of the iconic fantasy world from J.R.R. Tolkien interwoven into the very fabric of The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria.
-Survive the Dark: To survive the treacherous Mines of Moria players must conserve resources, hunt and gather for food and manage their sleep, temperature and noise levels. Utilize dynamic light systems for safety and to blaze a path further into the darkness. Battle unspeakable evils and survive hordes of monstrous Orcs in visceral combat, while uncovering the secret of the Shadow that looms within the mountain.
-Base Building: Find solace from the darkness. Reveal and clear new locations to create architecture on a grand scale. Get creative and construct bases from scratch or build upon the existing environment. Beware the evils which seek to destroy Dwarven progress.
-Rebuild and Reshape Moria: Restore the long-lost ancient kingdom of Khazad-dûm to its former glory, recovering Dwarven landmarks as the story progresses. Resurrect old mines and refire their forges to yield their untouched resources.
-Explore: Delve into the depths of the Mines of Moria. Procedurally generated environments are abundant with resources and fraught with mystery and danger, providing a unique experience each and every time.
-Co-op Multiplayer: Adventure alone or band together with friends in online cooperative multiplayer with up to eight players.
-Craft Dwarven Tools, Weapons and More: Craft and loot legendary Dwarven armor, tools, weapons and structures. Rebuild ancient forges to strengthen, repair and enchant gear. Upgrade and unlock new technologies and fantastical machines.
- Uncover Magic Artifacts: Discover ancient magic items including swords that glow when Orcs are near, maps of long-dormant Mithril veins, books with forgotten crafting plans and amulets that give strength or wisdom.
-Mine Ore and Jewels: Establish mines to unearth deposits of precious resources such as iron, gold, and quartz; and fantastical materials such as Mithril. Access crafting stations and forges to convert ore to ingots and upgrade gear. But be prepared, mining is loud and can awaken what lurks in the darkness.
-Comprehensive Dwarf Builder: Players become part of Dwarven Legend as they create their own Dwarf in the custom character creator. Dwarves can be customized in a variety of ways to create a unique Dwarven identity. Then, during gameplay, players can find and craft armor and weapons to further enhance their unique style.
it's baffling how over all these years every single LOTR game goes to some unknown small developer, it's almost any big studio's dream game to make. But no, some backwater almost-indie studio gets it, almost every time. wtf?
Not that a big studio might do it justice either, but it is odd.
yeah... this is not the LOTR game you were looking for played alone for w while and I don't think I can stomach more. Maybe with friends it would be fun but solo it's kinda crap. Doesn't look bad, especially if you're a sucker for LOTR. The building system is a lil bit confusing but something to get used to. The combat - holy shit that is bad this would be a nice EA candidate for them to gather feedback from ppl on how to improve on certain things. Maybe they can still do it with a released game, or maybe they will use Epic as EA and then rls it on Steam and version 2.0. At least it's not a shit show like Gollum
Right, done some more playing. Its mediocre at best. The settings are nice but its waaaay to repetitive with some anoying spawning enemies. You fight 2 goblins and more spawn behind you even though there was no earlier...no matter if you have a wall behind you or not.
Also, the menu system is kind of like the one in Starfield - not slow, but slow enough to be anoying when you try to swap between stuff.
I've restarted 3 times and the map is pretty much identical (atleast up to where you are supposed to build your first base).
Its not an expensive game, but there are games out there that are better to spend you cash on
shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
