Some more gameplay, including Gandalf vs The Balrog:
Some facts about the game:
The game will cover all three movies, but for now won't include the Hobbit.
The game pulls audio directly from the movies, so is fully voiced.
There will be some minor RPG elements, such as collecting mythril so that armour can be crafted from it.
All in all, I'm very much looking forward to this game.
"The Daemon lied with every breath. It could not help itself but to deceive and dismay, to riddle and ruin. The more we conversed, the closer I drew to one singularly ineluctable fact: I would gain no wisdom here."
Yep, I'm assuming they're referring to the Last Alliance battle, since Sauron's defeat there marked the end of the Second Age.
Would make sense. IIRC the first of the Lord of the Rings games started with the LA battle as the "tutorial level"- t'was also the first scene in the movies.

I find it sad that someone like Travellers Tales can do an open world LOTR's game that's not an MMO and yet some other big game dev couldn't do it that or they're not interested.
