That's kind of the whole thing with this game. It's violence.
I can do a violent LOTR game.

I laughed out loud when I really thought about how many times I've heard a person in a promotional video say "This is the X that Y fans have been waiting for."

I know the battles in the book were violent, but I don't think Tolkien specifically detailed orcs writhing in pain as black spheres gushed forth from their leg-stumps.
But I haven't read LotR in a while, so maybe I forgot about that part.

Meh. Just looks kind of like the GameCube games, but with unnecessary gore added in.

Graphics look kinda plain, but otherwise it all looks like some simple fun. Plus DWARVES, man!
