Enough has been said regarding how inadequate The Lord of the Rings: Gollum was and Daedalics internal studio being shut down is certainly unfortunate regardless. There isnt much to redeem about The Lord of the Rings: Gollum but, while that game failed in nearly every aspect, the IP its a part of will continue to thrive as long as fantasy is a popular genre. Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of the Rings Game is seemingly on the right hairy foot, for instance, and itll be interesting to see what other games are in the works, if any, because there are many more stories still for The Lord of the Rings to tell.
