What are the best Lord of the Rings games?

I've been playing Shadow of Mordor since I bought it in the Steam sale, and while killing orcs is pretty fun it gets quite repetitive and fails to capture the sense of grand adventure that I associate with Lord of the Rings. What are some good LotR games /v/?
>>
lord of the rings conquest
>>
>>383011982
Ive been playing the last days of the third age lately, the mod for mount and blade. Just got into mount and blade itself, but im a huge tolkien fan so I couldnt pass the mod up
>>
Two Towers and Return of the King for PS2
>>
>>383012046
Isn't that dead?
>>
Lego LOTR
>>
>>383012136
those were pretty good desu
>>
>>383011982
Return of the King
>>
>>383012232
4 player split screen, baby.
>>
>>383012136
I like the diablo style gba games too
>>
>>383012359
I don't have IRL friends
>>
battle for middle earth 1 and 2 are both really good, although i don't know how well they have aged. at the time they were great games though
>>
>>383011982
lord of the rings online
was unironically the best mmo of the last 20 years
>>
>>383012507
Is it still worth playing
>>
>>383012339
>>383012453
those
>>
>>383012707
no and he's lying. the game is WoW with lord of the rings themes
>>
>>383011982
Lord of The Rings: The Third Age for PS2 is quite nice
>>
Best LOTR adventuring games would Return of the King, LOTR Third Age, and Lotr War in the North. I think the old Hobbit game was pretty good too.
>>
Has anyone played any of the LotR conversion mods for the Total War games? Looks like there's The Fourth Age for Rome: Total War, and Third Age for Medieval II. Wondering if they're worth a go.
>>
>>383013361
war in the north was bad.
>>
>>383013147
What a fun game

except for the helms deep gauntlet
>>
>>383013684

I had lots of fun with it playing coop. I can see it being boring if you played by yourself.
>>
>>383011982
fellowship of the ring gba is a comfy/shitty RPG based on the book
>>
>>383013496
Third Age for Medieval II is really fucking cool. IMO one of the best conversion of total war games
I strongly advise it
>>
>>383013496
Get third age for Med 2 it's god tier. Although I recommend getting submods for it too. Mos is just Third Age+ and lore friendly. Divide and Conquer is less lore friendly, do some questionable things (trolls of the white hand for example) but works so much better with Total War gameplay and have more factions.

PS2 Two Towers and Return of the King
GBA Two Towers and Return of the King
All the LEGO ones
PC Battle for Middle Earth games (1/2/RotWK), especially RotWK+Edain Mod.
Third Age Total War Mod for Medieval 2 Total War, both with MOS Submod or Divide and Conquer Submod, MOS is more a kitchen sink addon with a lot of shit while DAC focuses more on quality new additions.

Conquest is a garbage Battlefield clone that is messy as fuck with a metric fuckton of bugs but retards like it for some reason.

>>383013496
Fourth Age for RTW is meh, only TATW for M2 is good.
>>
>>383012707
No and it never was, that game was a literal WoW clone with LotR book license (so if you are used to designs and locations from the movies, they look nothing like that ingame). Nowadays it's a half-dead WoW clone with korean tier grind and microtransactions because it's """F2P""".
>>
>>383015957
TATW is fuckin' great.

The Last Days of The Third Age for M&B is pretty good, too. The way you get troops is really different than regular M&B and can take some getting used to though.
>>
>>383016262
>The Last Days of The Third Age for M&B is pretty good, too.
I've been meaning to play it but I remember it only being available for the vanilla M&B which is garbage compared to Warband.
Did it ever get ported to Warband? If so, I know what I'm doing this weekend.
>>
Is there a game where I can adventure and see the beauty of middle earth or are they all action games? I've only played 1 or 2.

ps2: the two towers, the return of the king, the third age
pc: battle for middle earth, bfme II and rise of the witch king
>>
>>383012405
You should probably kill yourself then.
>>
>>383016851
The LEGO games, unironically.
Alternatively the shitty WoW-clone MMO which is LotR Online but see >>383016164 if you want to see the beauty from the movies.

If you like Tolkien, consider watching this. The guy puts into words the feeling that I have everytime when reading Tolkien; it's like coming home.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXAvF9p8nmM

Also feels from about 54:00 onwards
>>
>watching the behind the scenes of the movies
Is there anything comfier?
>>
>>383016561
Yes it did
Ive been playing as a rohirrim ridet with lances and bows. The great war just started and theoden calls for aid.
I just started playing M and B for the first time last week, got bored of vanilla fast, but this mod is incredible
>>
>>383018437
>1h
I'll watch it in the evening anon, ain't got that much time now.

Also

Tolkien was a mad autist for burrying his wife as Luthien despite her asking MULTIPLE fucking times for him not to do that.
>>
There should be a stealth game set in middle earth.
>>
>>383013147
I like it, playing it on and off right now. Not really looking forward to Helm's Deep and Edoras is pretty annoying. Is Morwen unironically useless? I have finished the game lots of times, and now I'm trying to mix up my squad. Elegost is pretty stronk with the debuffs, but Morwen takes two hits and is down and doesnt do anything aside from damage, and since her stats are awful she either misses or does pitifully low dmg.
>>
>>383012046

This game sucks dick, don't listen to this person.
>>
>>383011982
There aren't any
>>
>>383023924
Fuck yourself to death

Fuck you.

Because I don't think some shitty RTS or console beatemup with lord of the rings slapped on the title is any good?
