This is bullshit on so many levels.. :/ A good example of how to not use a franchise.

LotR Kartz Racing, coming holiday 2014!

What a waste of Monolith's talent. To think they could have been working on Condemned 3...

f2p?

DOTRO?

This trailer tells me nothing about this game. It would be really disappointing if this is the thing Monolith has been working on for the past few years. Then again, maybe this game will be awesome. Who knows?

I just don't get DOTA/MOBA games - why remake the exact same game just with a different skin over and over?

HoN/DOTA2/LoL aren't even close to the same game.

As much as I love LOTR....

Not a single fuck to be given.

that! where has the LOTR franchise gone at this point, it's horrible. Characters really feel out of place...

:(

But I want Condemned 3 not this.

I think I'm going to wait for gameplay or at least screenshots until I rip this game apart. At that point there will be no holding back though.

I just don't get DOTA/MOBA games - why remake the exact same game just with a different skin over and over?

what the actual fuck?

I'm almost offended by this. What a horribly inappropriate way to use the licence.

Oh yeah, cool, I was waiting for a new MOBA game.

This is incredibly depressing. Condemned 3, Monolith. That's all I want. I hate that they're just being relegated to these stupid downloadable games.

Ah, I can see it now...

FUCKIN NOOB GANDALF FEEDING. GG WE FUCKIN LOST. END IT PLEASE MY TEAM SUCKS. GANDALF FEEDS AND LEGOLAS ISN'T HELPING.

...and let's not forget about the "foreigners" shall we?

FRODO NOOB FUCK. SHIT NOOB. WHY KS NOOB *insert foreigner now speaking in his/her language as if the rest of the team, who is entirely english by the way, can understand them*

As much as I love LOTR....

Not a single fuck to be given.

Batman TF2 and Gandalf DOTA

@MisuseOfLasers: A LOTRA if you will.

Okay, but what has Monolith really been working on?

Hooray?

Oh well, at least it wasn't Gimli versus a group of sexy nuns.

Hold the fucking phone. THIS is what Monolith has been doing? The guys who made Fear and Condemned have spent the last three years working on Batman TF2 and Gandalf DOTA. Are you fucking kidding me?

My god, i really do hope that Monolith haven't been reduced to making games based on Warner brothers properties.

They're way too good for that. Also i want Condemned 3.

What the fuck is this

@SamDrugbringer: You mean you're not down for some GoME?

Uh-oh they forgot to make the title a into catchy acronym. It’s doomed.

It should have been called Guardian Nerds of Middle Earth.

A) Come on, we know who the audience of LOTR games is.

B) LOTR: GNOME!

This better not be all that Monolith has been working on. Where the fuck is Condemned 3 already?

This looks weird.

I'm sorry but Why are a bunch of Lotor characters fighting in a little arena. It just looks silly.

So it's a LOTR DOTA?

i REALLY hate trailers that give us no info or idea what the game will be about and is instead just a somthing pretty to look at.

so...i guess im excited?

Uh-oh they forgot to make the title a into catchy acronym. It’s doomed.

A trailer like this may have seemed cool when I was 14, but it does absolutely nothing for me now. A knock-down, drag-out fight between characters has nothing to do with why I liked the books when I read them or why I enjoyed the movies.

That was my favorite part of the movie too...where Gollum and Gandalf fought like they were an equal match for eachother!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, not interested.

Looks cool, if there is an IP I could get behind for a DOTA, it's LOTR.

I just hope they don't fuck it up.

What a great use of monolith's talents

one does not merely creep into mordor

I'm a big Lord of the Rings nerd, but I'm curious to see whether this will follow the 2D back-and-forth combat of Awesomenauts or 3D-laned fighting of League of Legends. The trailer still looks awesome though.

Stopped reading at DOTA.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOB!

P.S. - Just kidding.

What stupidity.

Stopped reading at DOTA.

Having never really played a DOTA game, I could get behind this one.
