Would he count as living/undead or both?
Don't taint /tg/ with this garbage.

How was this allowed to be made? I assume if Christopher Tolkein ever hears about it he'd drop dead on the spot.

>taint
lewd
I'll taint you
>>53772007
Oh look its the fun police telling us we're doing fun wrong
>>53772042
Tolkien was probably THE most pretentious autist to ever exist
Funnily enough so is his family
>>53772042
Because it's fun, and the world doesn't care about your autism
lv 10 Fighter with a cursed Ring of Dominate Person, Mass
>>53771965
Errm.. Didn't he have his throat slit open?
I'm pretty sure he's dead, and possessed.
>>53771965
He is literally a textbook revenant. Undead shackled to this world by the cause of their death and their need for revenge.
Not only that, he's possessed by an ancient dead spirit.
So the main character is a revenant possessed by a spirit. 200% Undead!

>Dominate Person
It's actually more like Geas.
>>53772042
Because as a videogame it's fun as fuck. Besides, it doesn't even have the LOTR name, it's just a Middle-Earth alternative universe.
>>53775035
he also is very fleshy revenant
like, so juicily and healthy, looking good and regenerating fast
maybe it's because he has double of the remaining life energy he thus has more life energy and an living person, thus being double undead makes him more alive then living

"Level 30 Rapebaby of a (((corporation))) having its way with a story" sounds about right. Now fuck off.
>>53778556
I understand being upset over the utter silliness that is the story, but the game itself was genuinely good
Bright Lord's lame, stat Bruz instead.
>>53778829
Well yeah, but nobody is arguing game mechanics.
>>53778556
Its not canon. Just enjoy it as a separate game. Dont get so hung up on the fact it uses middle earth
>talion
>raping any lore
The lord of the rings setting has been the stage to much more absurd shit.
SOM is absolutely tame and completely believable considering some of the shit we read in the books
>tom bombadil
>the whole saruman arc
>the blue wizards
>the unforgiven
>wargs
>the whole silmarillion
>smaug
>the silmarils
>ents
>ungoliant
>>53778974
No, SOM and SOW seem way more insane than any of that.
>>53778974
In addition:
>the barrow wraiths
>the dead marshes
The idea of wraiths and restless undead has been widely present into middle earth lore.
Even if it's never stated that something luke talion could happen, it's never stated it couldn't
>>53778974
>>53778981
I think that the thing that makes SOM different is that here revenant totally looks like a living man (with a ghost inside).
It could be explained like that >>53778180 but its still stands out.
>>53778981
You're just biased because tolkien wrote those.
Had another writer come up with the idea of the silmarils, feanor or smaug, all of /tg/ would've gone on about lore rape
