I genuinely thought this a late April Fool joke off the headline.

Gollum, I'm surprised he has soo many fans tbh.

Hopefully there aren't too many fools to blindly pre-order this game. I'm not saying the game won't be any good or anything along those lines, I'm just saying people need to stop being stupid (hahahaha, we all know that won't happen) about pre-ordering and then being pissed the game is broken until it's updated/patched days/weeks/months after it was released.

Wait for it to come out, check out reviews, then decide if the game is worth your time and money.

On a side note, I didn't even know they were making a Gollum game. Aside from it being in the Lord of the Rings universe, it kind of just reminds me of the Styx game based on the trailer. Gollum isn't a go beat 'em up kind of creature, he's sneaky. Much like you were if you played the Styx games.

The trend of brutal rise in general requirements isn't stopping. Expect more complaining about "bad pc ports" from the people who paid over $500 for an 8Gb card...

More than that though, who wants to see a high resolution skinny gollum butt for an entire game's length?

I fully expect Arwen/Galadriel/Aragorn character replacement mods after the game releases :laugh:
