The door is finally open to focus on diversity and social issues, everything else is secondary.

Gen 6 is over. Why woudl LOTR games suddenly be great?

Gimme dat Total War: Middle Earth.

Just to spite historyfags

I get that you are joking, but I am actually scared that the lotr amazon series is going to turn into return of the kangz.

it definitely will happen, and other LOTR media too. Tolkien's works are more or less one of the last bastions of unsullied white European works that liberals despise so this is their final push to destroy it. I can promise you there will be many articles about how it's about time that evil old racist Tolkien had his vicious white supremacist narrative destroyed.

Goddamnit Orcposting is going to turn into reality.

WE WUZ NAZGHUL AND SHEEEIT

Already happened with the Warcraft movie.
Can't remember if it was the director or the head writer but you should see his comments on Tolkein being a "white guy in a trench."

>mfw John Rhys Davis already came out and called this whole affair bold-faced garbage to make money

...

hopefully now we can get some fucking black characters

Now the hebrews can ruin his family's legacy for decades to come. Yessssss... good goyim. Buy my new EA LOTR gayme

What's left that isn't shat all over by the Jewish agenda?

>Tolkien works
Thinly-veiled monolithism brainwashing. I don't care for it, I prefer to keep my freedom of thought out of harm's way.

>black characters
>middle earth
>black
>yurope

i want to hear what Viggo says, he spoke out against the Hobbit movies and even Two Towers and ROTK so I wonder his view of this trash

Maybe now the lore can be good

Best lock yourself in a box and never do anything ever again then.

But they already put black people in it

YAAAAS!
now there will be interracial all over the place i can't wait

He had no real power to begin with so I don't see a difference.
Tolkien estate can bitch all it wants, WB has the name and they'll use it however they want.
Hopefully the lessons from Wolfenstien and EA fucking up will be a good incentive for the next Shadow game to be good and whole.

Gimme the skinny on the old man

>wb announced that will open a new studio in vancounver and let nu leafs make an 'important' new game entry with a brand new cast of rich and diverse characters

>will be a good incentive for the next Shadow game to be good and whole
In what fucking universe is that sound logic?

Answer me

I wasn't joking. I don't think it's a good thing but it is what's going to happen. It's inevitable.

So after everything, did he do anything wrong?

he forgot to live his own life

frodo was a black homosexual all along.

Got in the way of the LOTRCU (Lord Of The Rings Cinematic Universe), that dumb old hag.

Can't wait for Gandalf the Black

I dont think there will ever be a truly great Lord of the Rings game.

>Niggolas
>Afrodo Saggin
>Gimleeroy
>Ballin'
>Slangwise
>Pimpin'
>Gerri(curl)

can't wait

can't wait for Return of the Kang

Yeah great games like shadow of war? Fucking kill yourself.

>First new LOTR game takes place entirely in Far Harad to show that not all of the enemies of Gondor are evil
>In the Silmarillion mini-series/movies Feanor is an Elf of Color whose kinslaying was for the purpose of overthrowing the oppressive regime of the Valar (all played by white men/women)
>Morgoth just wants freedom
>Elendil and co. are now black while Ar-Pharazôn and his court are white
>Melian, Maiar wife of Thingol, is now transgender or gender-neutral
>Turin's sister is now adopted instead of a blood relative
>Beren is now a beta-male and Luthien does everything he did on top of what she already did in the story

I know you're trollin user but this is the sad reality these days.
Can't wait for a transgender PoC wraith once liberal writers get their hands on it.

I always found it kind of sad that his entire life was based in his fathers shadow, like yes Tolkiens work is amazing and his work should have been protected. But damn. Literally his whole life was spent based on his fathers life.

Sci-Fi and Fantasy are dying

You joke but he's actually pretty cool looking

Kill yourself asap for even thinking that for a second.

At least he didn't up like the son of the Dune guy, who essentially pissed on the legacy with a series of shitty books.

>he didnt play BfME2

Two towers for PS2 and OG Xbox was quality entertainment

...

LOTR Expanded Universe oh boy

Elves actually return from beyond the sea as LIGHT ELVES TO PURIFY THEM ALL

If I see a single black elf, dwarf, hobbit or sorcerer then I ain't watching it. There are black people to my knowledge in the tolkien world but they are not in middle earth or the elf lands or w.e its called

I don't think any of them are black. More like you have Arabic like people. I can't think of any lotr race that would be sub saharan African or anything similar

WE WUZ DARK ELVES AND SHEEEIT

>getting triggered over a nobody's shitty tumblr art

Fuck back off to your containment board

Goddammit my sides hurt!

well they can easily include niggers in arab shit

Not really. They're totally different.

>Gerri(curl)

Elrond? More like N-word

Who do you want to see BLACKED

Yes now we can finally have black and middle eastern dwarves and elves, and the racist white humans will finally allow the poor and oppressed orcish peoples into their borders

The games already ran the universe into the ground; I can't wait to see how the movies are diluted through successively worse adaptations.

Hobbit 3 was already a joke or parody - I swear at some points it looks like some third-rate adaptation of Dark Souls.

Fucking orcpost you faggots. I don't have all day.

>mfw they'll put copious amounts of sex and politics in it because that's what Game of Thrones does

Yes you do, you lying sack of crap.

they both rape goats kids and white women

>Sup Forums is so politically mindfucked that the first thing that comes to mind when anything changes is whether or not this means anything for the inclusion of women and minorites
>not the fact that Shelob is a sexy seductress antihero now and Celebrimbor forged an even betterer ring than the One Ring and ended up soul fused with Sauron for the entirety of the LOTR books, which apparently nobody even noticed

>Lord of the Rings is now in the hands of the modern film and television industry
>"lol why are you worried about diversity quotas haha"

ORCS ARE BEING OPPRESSED!

>giving a fuck about diversity quotas when actual damage is being done to the series by hack writers

oh no but now there are blacks in middle earth, this ruins everything

...

Are you pretending they don't exist?

...

Samefag from Sup Forums

...

The difference is that until now, external works were very firmly non-canon. Now anything can happen.

...

I needed this. Thanks.

Right, and people are worried about the inclusion of non-whites? That's the least of my concerns with this.

no problem m8

You knew he didn't give a shit when Shadow of Mordor came out.

Shadow of Mordor wasn't canon at all, just a RULE OF COOL romp through some cool Orcs with a lot of dumb "lore" in between.

Now we can have Shadow of Mordor-tier stories but marketed as actual legitimate sequels, and minus all that problematic Orc treatment, that will spiral the series down worse than Star Wars.

...

The adventures of Dildo Baggins.

You know it's going to happen user.

...

Alright I hear you but you can't say that the Dwarven anti-elf-arrow windmill ballista wasn't the tightest shit.

...

Star Wars is in better health now than it was during the prequel era tho

Oh man, this right here just dethroned foreskin cucked as the most funny shit I've seen on this site.

There are literally arabs and "people of the east" in LOTR

And they fight for sauron lmao,

The average Sup Forumsfugee poster doesn't know shit user, they just pretend that they do, and they'd use anything to justify never ever getting laid.

Blacks aren't Arab you fucking retards Jesus Christ

this really activates my almonds more than the ocposting

...

Yes because KotOR 1 and 2, Jedi Knight series and Battlefront were all shit compared to the games we get now.

SW was still allowed to have depth and meaning then. Now it's just a convenient path to merchandise and muh diversity.

There are Black Arabs son

Easterlings and haradrim are middle eastern Arabs not black also Muslim /=/ arab

Early access footage to the new TV series.
It's beautiful.

>background laugh
just stop

Oh good now most hobbits are going to be black, all the elves are going to be black, the dwarves are going to be trannies, and all the heroes will be BADASS girls.

>Remember when this guy was in a coma?
>Well he's awake now but paralyzed from the neck down

Hurray?
