LEGO® The Hobbit™

Nunca tuve oportunidad de jugar estos juegos de Lego en mi infancia y este sería mi 2do juego de lego que e jugado, aprovechando que esta en oferta, algo que me sorprende es que se vea tan bien y de una calidad muy buena, algo que también me sorprendió fue que este en Español Latino, cuando en su descripción solo estaba en Esp. España, grata sorpresa jaja

freeplay is fun enough; the story play is more cut-scene than game play, none of the lego charm and overbloated with lifted dialogue. I usually end up just exiting the game after each cutscene because the momentum is gone and the game works against reachinng a flow state.

Чудова гра, дуже багато можливостей та додаткових місій. Багато різних персонажів. Дуже класний гумор. Дуже рекомендую для проходження 😊

[b]LEGO The Hobbit[/b] feels like a slightly newer version of [b]LEGO The Lord of the Rings[/b], with a reshuffled Middle-earth map built around The Hobbit films instead. The big problem is that it only covers the first two movies. The story ends immediately [spoiler]after Smaug is released from the mountain and flies toward Lake-town, capped with Bilbo's "What have we done?"[/spoiler] - and that’s it. No final act, no resolution, and the planned DLC that would have finished the story was cancelled. That alone makes the package feel incomplete. Like most LEGO games, it naturally encourages two playthroughs. First, you run through the story mode with only light interaction in the hub world. Then you're released into full free-roam Middle-earth. After that, you go back through the levels in Free Play to gather collectibles - with some stages even hiding entirely new puzzle-focused areas that weren't accessible the first time around. If you've played [b]LEGO The Lord of the Rings[/b], this will all feel extremely familiar... maybe too familiar. And again, like most LEGO games, it starts slow: no detectors, no multipliers, and a small roster of characters. You'll constantly find collectibles you can't reach yet because you're missing the right tool or ability. But by the end, everything opens up, the upgrades click into place, and clearing the map becomes deeply satisfying in that classic LEGO-completionist way. But with the story literally stopping mid-trilogy, the whole experience ends up feeling like an unfinished version of a game that was already done better the first time.

The biggest problem with this game is that the films it adapts just are not that good. They have an astronomical amount of filler, divergences and strange additions to the story that simply make the original story worse. The story is stretching itself and perhaps even worse the game is also stretching itself out with new mechanics that just don't add that much. The resource collecting and crafting systems that quite a few reviews complain about will only block your progress for the first section of the game as crafting resources are abundant. If anything, these systems basically add nothing to the game. Another massive issue is keeping track of all of the very similar-looking dwarves. The abilities they have that are needed to do puzzles are not all listed so there is alot of alternating between dwarves and checking their tools to see what they have. You are rarely given them all at the same time, but actually remembering them is still required. I had fun with this little puzzle game, but I would not recommend it to anybody.

Recommended if you liked LEGO Lord of the Rings. Note that the third movie is NOT included, so the story mode ends when Smaug flies to Laketown. Quick note on some bugs you might encounter: - Sometimes the "fast travel" bird gets stuck. This happened more than 10% of the time for me. Exit to menu and reload the save. - A certain door with 3 targets near Bree would not allow you to shoot. Going to settings and setting VSync to 30 and texture quality to low fixed this for me. Try these solutions for other bugs not mentioned.

As a LEGO games fanatic, this is a fun one. I really like all the unique abilities and animations the characters have, the map is also fun to explore (but a bit confusing sometimes, but that's just me being horrible at knowing directions), and so are the levels. The obvious downside is there's no Battle of the Five Armies implemented. Iirc they wanted to add it as a DLC but it never went through? And as much as that disappointed me, I wouldn't not recommend the game. Also buy the DLC on sale like I did. The full price isn't much worth it lol. The only ones I use are Baby Smaug and the elk. Oh and Baby Gimli is awesome.
