I like it. Roll with the consequences of your actions, be they accidental or not, but I can see how that can be frustrating for some

As a Brit, the analogy I’ve always enjoyed is that living in Canada vs the USA is like owning a nice apartment above a crack den. Although, I can’t speak to the validity of said statement.
Yeah, tanking a district makes that area harder and doesnt feel great; however, if you don’t kill any of them, the combat is really hard because you’re under levelled. So you have to make moral judgements and choose who is “best” to kill.
That’s just the campaign. They’ll slap an 8/10 on the multiplayer and call it a day. It’ll sell gang busters again, then when they do the same thing again next year, no-one will bat an eye.
Absolutely, it’s worth talking about since it’s not a new phenomena with Tolkien’s work. We should be mindful of these kinds of interpretations and be clear about how we, as a community, respond.
There are definite themes of ‘old’ or ‘ancient bloodlines’ making better or stronger men and elves, as arda generally declines in many ways. Look at Númenor and its genetic legacy. It’s a short leap for fascists and racists towards blood and racial purity nonsense, and the decline of, or assault on, so called ‘Western civilisation’ from the ‘hordes’ of eaterlings and haradrim. It’s a narrow minded and surface level view of the literature, but morons aren’t exactly known for their media literacy.
I enjoyed the demo but I do hope they tweaked a few things. I hear they made the dodge more viable which should make it a much smoother experience
Since they belong to the super family musteloidea, Wash Weasel seems more accurate. Definitely still closer to bears than rodents though.
