Gollum won the argument, and the ridicule of the internet. This was followed by them outright shutting down their development division, as well as laying off over a quarter of their staff, and beginning the transition to solely a publisher all in just over a month. Its inevitable icy reception prompted an apology from the developer for the state that ' The Lord of Ring: Gollum' arrived in. Fumbled over the finish line by a studio whose previous work was largely 2D point-and-click affairs, with €2 million (~$2.2 USD million) in government funding to make it happen, the game was lambasted for its dated visuals, wonky controls, some very drab-looking fonts, eyebrow-raising dialogue and horrific performance all for the outrageous price of $60. To many, it resembles one of countless licensed cash-grab shovelware titles from the PlayStation 2-era, lost in time. ALL the unused/placeholder dialogue (200+ lines).Įmerging from four years of development hell, long after its original Fall 2021 launch window, The Lord of the Rings: Gollum feels like a relic of a bygone era in the worst possible ways.
