Never say anything again, if you base what you think is lore off the movies I'm going to come through your computer screen and jack slap you. Don't be so hard on him. The problem with making a mod based on a book with very popular movies is that there are more people who have seen the movies than people who read the books. You're going to find people who want things added that are specifically from the movies.

Indeed, it is pretty hard to please everyone... You have people who want armour redesigned to look as it does in the movies, and people who want armour to follow the books so closely that all plate-armour is removed. People who want no departure from the lore whatsoever... and people who want every corner of the world to be bursting with new invented tribes and races. There are people who want more copied-and-pasted factions to play as, and people who want more much-needed depth for the existing factions, and people who want both. Then you have people who want loads and loads of specific content for their favourite faction. (Usually those tricksy Elves and Orcs) and people who want a complete new way of playing the game, or want a deep and convincingly realistic world, or just really want to see a particular tree added to the mod...

In fact, if the history of this mod is anything, it's one long story of trying to please all the different groups in their turn without upsetting another one, or making them wait too long. Thank you Mevans! You are the greatest!

P.S I like some invented tribes, but do not fill every corner with them xD
