Which is why i'm here 3 years later writing a review. I gave this 9/10 because i thought the acting was brilliant, the story was well told given the obvious budget restrictions (they were clearly trying to show the massive scale of the conflict but didn't have hundreds/thousands of people to work with) and personally i found the music/soundtrack to be icing on the cake. I completely agree with another reviewers' assertion that it was great to learn how Tolkiens own 'middle earth' tales had taken inspiration and where he had adapted a lot of terminology from. But it does a great job of being sneaky and educating you whilst you're watching. Because they've used their budget effectively and tell the story well. But it can hold its head high whilst standing next to them. Its nowhere near the high production values of Gladiator or any other blockbuster medieval romp. Welcome to my Let's Play of The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-EarthIf you'd like to name a unit in my campaign, feel free to leave a comment with. Another aspect worth highlighting is the advanced artificial intelligence (AI) that will make the confrontations and battles a more enjoyable experience.ĭownload this game based on The Lord of the Rings and live the battles for Middle-Earth in first person.This ' DocuDrama ' follows the battle of hastings through the eyes of the peasants (portrayed brilliantly by their respective actors) and the Huscarl they're forced into following and where their journey takes them across the UK and tries to show the opinion of what life was like for a lowly foot-soldier of the era.


With regard to the game's technical details, The Battle for Middle-Earth 2 stands out due to its playability and the fact that it's a lot easier to play than other RTS games like Empire Total War. Without a doubt, this sequel includes a lot more of the story behind The Lord of the Rings than the first instalment, offering us the possibility to take part in battles that hadn't been included in the films. This title goes further into the facts narrated in The Lord of the Rings novels written by J.R.R.Tolkien, and it allows the player to relive the intense battles that take place during the dangerous journey that takes Frodo and the rest of the Fellowship from The Shire and then Rivendell to Sauron's domain in Mordor, a volcanic region of the Middle-Earth. The Battle for Middle-Earth 2 is the second part of the real-time strategy (RTS) video game of the same name.
