What are some essential LoTR vidya?
Nothing, really.
I guess that Medieval II mod was pretty good.

The EA ones, amazingly. Two Towers and Return of the King. LEGO™ Lord of the Rings is OK if you want something where you don't have to think... At all.
Lord of the Rings online is ok, even though they casualized the fuck out of it when they got rid of skill trees and shit, but its still a decent game for F2P.
Third Age

>The EA ones, amazingly. Two Towers and Return of the King
This is the answer, theyre pretty good. Also Dragons Dogma.
The Souls games arent very similar, but theyve always given me the sense of adventure I like from the LoTR.
why didn't frodo just throw the ring into the sun?

Hey! It's the hobbit from Quantum Break
Hey LotRFags!
what exactly was so evil about mordor hat they needed to conquer it? didnt they essentially ignore everything outside of mordor if it wasnt for the ring?

No one tried to conquer Mordor. Nothing wrong with mordor itself, just the Dark Lord decided to make it his home since it's a very defensable position. The armies marched there to defeat Sauron, not conquer Mordor.
>>329469804
why defeat Sauron if he does nothing wrong?
I really liked the EA action games, but the one I always return to is Battle for Middle-Earth 1.
EA did some good things with LOTR.
>>329470094
Sauron did everything wrong in his entire life. Within the timespan of Hobbit and Lord of The Rings though, he was gaining strentgh to march on the West with his armies and conquer everything.
Which is why he: secured a deal with Saruman to put Rohan in check, sent Nazghuls to retrieve the ring and gathered armies of orcs and from the further West to sent an initiative on Gondor.
>>329470094
Sauron is like Arda (where LOTR takes place) Satan, taking over the role from the previous one, and has quite the history of evil. If not stopped he would dominate and ruin everything.

anyone know if LotR: Conquest was any good? it looks promising
>>329474241
was this more RPG or action?
>>329470870
>Sauron is like Arda Satan
That's the wrongest thing I've ever heard.
>>329474403
Action
>>329475797
It's absolutely true, though.
He's described as someone who can literally TALK people into doing shit. That's how he fucked up the whole of Numenor.
And he also mentioned taking over the role of the previous one [Satan].
>>329466512
my favorites are
fellowship of the rings 2002 game
BFME1(campaign)
return of the king
Shadow of mordor
also war in the north is okey
>>329477171
>fellowship of the rings 2002 game
That brings back memories. Couldn't go past Balrog back at the time.
>>329474403
LotR Conquest had pretty fun multiplayer but the servers are dead
>>329466761
This guy gets it, Third Age was fucking great
>>329476928
Morgoth is Satan
Sauron is just Satan's incompetent bitch boy who inherited the keys to daddy's car
>>329476928
>taking over the role of the previous one
Sauron can't even compare to Melkor. He only acts though because he's playing against noobs that lacks the power level to see through his bullshit.
>>329477383
I wish they made games like it today. It was action adventure when that descriptor still meant something and wasn't simply "action games we can't put into any other genre".
>>329477597
Yeah, Conquest was actually a decent game, but you could never get enough players to fill a goddamn map and the campaign was just the same shit with bots. It was also the rattling of Pandemic's death chains because EA was not pleased.

i heard that it was incompatible with windows 7 what about 10?
>>329474241
War in the North is sadly just inferior Two Towers with no movie imagery to carry its OCDONUTSTEEL story with knock-off characters. I did like bigger RPG focus on gear and skills, though.
>>329478523
You bet.
>>329478257
Ah, dat Shire. Have to download and replay it now.
Fuck you, I liked it.
Return of the King on GBA.
It's basically Diablo II: LotR Edition
>>329478976
I liked it too.
>>329469320
>conquering mordor
Stopped reading. You obviously don't know a goddamn thing about the plot.
>>329476928
Though he isn't as powerful as Morgoth was, especially because he lacks the Silmarils
LOTRO is amazing.
