Gollum's Platinum Is ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE

Ойындар

In todays video, I attempt to platinum The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum 🏆
This is hands down the worst game I have played in an extremely long time and the platinum is just as buggy as you'd expect. There as so many reasons as to why this game should've never seen the light of day and if you're debating buying this game, PLEASE DON'T!!!
Shoutout to these amazing people for helping with the platinum as I couldn't of done it without you all!

    Just to add, I completely understand the reason why the names are so basic but thank you all for letting me know 😊 The main reason I pointed it out was more to do with the fact that, because they were so basic, it became hard to remember who was who. Multiple enemy characters had the same "Cruel" adjective before their name and it became hard to keep up with it 😅 Also, thank you all so much for the support on this video!! I really do appreciate every single one of you!

    The funny thing is that, according to the developers, they didn't want to just copy Jackson's movie trilogy and wanted to make their own original visuals based on the original books. Yet, they failed miserably on both fronts: Not only did they end up copying Gollum's look from the movies anyway (deliberately or inadvertently, who knows), but in their attempt to make him look "different" and "original" they just ended up making him look really bad and laughable.

    I honestly don't mind the characters having generic and unspecific names. Perhaps Gollum doesn't know or doesn't care to learn their actual names. Perhaps they occupy a minimal space in his mind as mere archetypes. I think it is a neat bit of world/character building for Gollum in an otherwise absolutely garbage game.

    30:47 The swimming achievement could be a reference to Smeagol knowing how to swim, which is apparently very rare (or at least uncommon) among hobbits.

See also Frodo's parents drowning in a boating accident when he was a child and Sam almost drowning while running after Frodo when Frodo departs following the Fellowship breakup.

    @xoeleox2079

    Жыл бұрын

    The issue isn't that the achievement is for swimming, the issue is that the achievement is for swimming an unreasonable distance given the amount of swimming that takes place during a single playthrough -- a player must essentially go out of their way and spend at least ten minutes doing nothing but swimming to earn it, as nobody is going to replay this game enough times to earn it "naturally." The worst achievement of this nature that I am aware of is "Tour de Dante Manor" from Lucius, which you get from riding the tricycle for 10 miles -- the tricycle being an item you unlock for completing all the chores. The player can expect to unlock this achievement after a modest 30 minutes of nonstop tricycling (it's recommended to make circles in the garden). Of course, that game also had achievements based on play time (20 and 40 total hours) so it's pretty obvious those devs wanted to get people playing the game as long as they could to boost metrics. But yeah, Smeeg was a special water boy so that he could find the ring in the riverbed. Why Tolkien chose to write this specifically we may never know. Ostensibly invented an entire subset of hobbits just so one could go on to find the ring at the bottom of a river by accident.

    Great video! This game looks so broken... though I will say one thing in its 'defence', and that's on its naming system I think the point of the names being generic is that we see them through Gollum's perspective. Gollum doesn't really use names - look back at LotR, he calls Bilbo 'Baggins' because that's how Bilbo introduced himself but seems to think of it more as an object name than a personal one, he calls Frodo 'Master', Sam 'Fat Hobbit' and so on. The characters are called 'Cruel Woman', 'Beastmaster', 'Candle Man' etc because that is the only thing Gollum would think to refer to them as. He doesn't see people as people, he sees people as objects and one specific object - the One Ring - as a person.

    So many things I don't understand about this game. Why is Mell imprisoned? No idea. Why did she become blind? Dunno. Why was Mell forced to open the door? Hell if I know. Why was Tharanduil able to summon the haze when not even the Maiar have such powers? Shrug. Why doesn't Thatanduil know that elves reincarnate and thus there's no reason to mourn his wife? Why did Bird betray Smeagol, only to turn around and save him at the very end? Why the hell did Smeagol, SMEAGOL, want to kill the Riddle Master?

    Honestly, I saw an ad about this game on a random wiki page that made it look like a parodical, cheap knock-off and, in some ways, even like a really weird bootleg porn game with how it was presented - and I totally believed it was just that, a random malware-infested game meant to steal your credit card info or something. Really, that says a lot about how this game looks and is presented.

    It might of been fix by now, but on xbox on release the game was so buggy that there was a decent chance that in chapter 10 your save would break so badly you would have to do chapter NINE again. And there was a good chance that it would crash trying to get back to the point you where.
