Maybe I just don't understand it, because I'm just a person interested in Middle Earth and not a Middle-Earth Fanatic, but idk.

(I also don't understand why so many people are freaking out about the incoming game "Middle Earth: War of Shadow"... Is it just because EA is doing something with Middle Earth, but not something what actually "happend", so something "lore-friendly?) Because it's no longer Tolkien's universe, which is what we are trying to replicate, is it not?

As for Shadow of War, it's a blatant cash grab that tries to milk the popularity of Middle-earth, while creating a practically unrelated universe.

Ithilion, Discussions Moderator (Auta i lome) 23:25, March 9, 2017 (UTC) I saw an article about it and I was like, mordor, orcs, ranger, celebrimbor then... Wtf is this crap, ranger recruiting orcs? Destroy mordor from inside? Wtf Not recruiting. You are taking control of them. And it's not like Nurn wouldn't have made rebellions to weaken Mordor from the inside. There is some sense (and lore) behind that, but EA also did own things, what is not really bad, I mean if you sell rights to someone, you have to remember that there are risks with that.
