The Lord of the Rings: War in the North™ - Legacy Edition

Sharper image quality, easier to use a controller and quality of life improvements make this an easy buy for me. It's easier to manage inventory and skills for yourself and your companions, all DLC items are included and gameplay is still gory fun.

Дайте мне The Battle for Middle-earth и моя душа ваша

我在很早之前玩过《指环王:北方战争》，之后想在Steam补票的时候却发现游戏早已在19年下架了，狠下心想买个CDKey却因四位数的售价望而却步。令人惊喜的是，Aspyr回购了授权，并支持开发团队以进一步对游戏进行重置,游戏的首发定价也远低于其他的老游戏重置作品,这对因原版游戏授权到期发行商拒绝续签授权导致游戏下架而无缘体验作品的新时代玩家来说无疑是件意外之喜 遗产版实际上更倾向于重置作品，它相较于原版并没有翻天覆地的新变化，它包含了原版的所有扩展内容的同时新增了原版所没有的一些便利性功能，还对原版的画面有着一定的升级，但或许是我对原版画面有滤镜的原因在这方面我个人感觉并没有提升太多 在我看来遗产版更像原版的升级版,在原版的基础上打上了一些便利性的Mod，遗产版可以完整的显示队友的属性，并且有消耗品的界面，每名角色都有自己的物品栏。更重要的是玩家可以自由的切换角色，能在关卡推进过程中对角色进行升级和装备的修理更换。虽然按现在的眼光看来一款游戏能中途切换角色丝毫不值得一提，但在原版并不能做到这一点,这导致在原版的体验中 AI控制的角色经常拖玩家的后腿 遗产版还和原版一样支持合作模式共同游戏,如果能找到朋友一起玩这几乎是款完美的游戏，体量也相对现当代的游戏要适中很多，完全可以和朋友度过十来小时相当有趣的时间 游戏现在存在一个小问题，在玩家控制角色消耗如药水之类的消耗品时，另外两个AI控制的角色也会消耗他们各自的消耗品，这使得当玩家切换到其他角色时时常发现已没有资源可以消耗了,这让遗产版中本来应该成为最大亮点的自由切换角色有了一些瑕疵，大可以添加进一步的设置，让玩家可以选择当AI控制角色时降低消耗速度或干脆不让AI进行资源消耗 经由《指环王：北方战争遗产版》不错的商业成绩我也由衷的希望它能开个好头，让更多因授权到期下架的游戏能以重置的面貌重新搬至台前,这些游戏不应该被遗忘也理应被更多玩家所体验 出自 网易 UU 鉴赏家培训计划 感谢由网易 UU 加速器免费提供的游戏 你出内容我出游戏，携手共创优质内容

Just tested it out as I was cautiously optimistic. Runs absolutely perfectly, had to throw a quick reshade on it as the dated graphics and color grading are a bit fuzzy and overly dark but honestly it is as every bit as good as I remember it and you can rebind all keybinds and use dual key keybinds. No more voice chat audio bug either with forced voice chat. Literally all I could ask for. A bit whack I have to buy it again after owning the original though but it's only £15.

Комментарий в поддержку старых игр по властелину колец. Надеюсь когда-то мы дождёмся BFME!(игра кстати запускается и даже поддержка геймпадов есть)

The original game is still a great game but it did have it's limitations mainly with only one shared inventory thankfully with this new edition that has been sorted out; with each character now having their own inventory , giving the player more space to share items or to store items if playing solo. Now being able to swap between the characters especially for upgrading, repairs and changing weapons and armour makes the game more fluid., plus having the characters this way also means they all have their own coin to buy the potions they require while in battle, and they will use them on their own. For those new to this game there are certain things you need to know; each character has their own set of skills broken into three skill trees, so to get the most out of these skills you need to play the game 4 times on each difficulty and the enemy is always a difficulty higher than you. Easy difficulty will give you the most coin which will be essential for the higher difficulties as everything will cost more as you move to the next difficulty. The game carries everything over to the next difficulty including skills, so if you ignore easy difficulty you are ignoring between 18 - 20 skills that you won't have when you reach legendary difficulty. So play all difficulties, also heroic and legendary difficulties are locked till you get through normal difficulty. The story is a wonderful story that is believable within the Lord of The Rings lore and is an enjoyable one. Do all side quests to get the most out of the game which will also give you rare gifts even from a dragon. I highly recommend this game as it is in my opinion a rare classic .

If you are a LOTR fan and love old school gaming, then this really is a treat and a gem of a find. I hate to admit it but I didn’t even know about this game, which makes this all the more exciting for me as I play through it. I think it’s important to point out that this really isn’t a remake or a remaster. The graphics are a bit better but it still looks and plays like an older console game. It’s essentially a fresh coat of (the same) paint. And I’m not even upset about that. It is beyond refreshing and a pleasure to play. It brings me back to the PlayStation days and to how my love for gaming all started. What I’ve always loved about LOTR is that there were so many supporting characters, branching stories and battles going on in the background that helped pave the way for the fellowship. We did get to see some of them in the movie/books. And now you get to play it, as this story runs parallel to that one. The story holds true to the lore and is interesting. I’m loving the cutscenes! The combat is surprisingly fun but of the basic beat em up genre. It’s vintage UI, with its endearing clunkiness. But it’s all manageable and easy enough to follow. I particularly like how you can actually customize your premade character. You can change some of the appearance early on at the Prancing Pony. Your outfit changes with your rotation of gear and there is a skill tree that you can customize to your liking and play style by allocating skill points to different branches. I haven’t run into any issues. It plays great on the deck, the steam machine and my PC. I have tried both split screen co-op (FYI you only need one game copy but 2 controllers) and online multiplayer (each player needs a copy of the game), and preferred the freedom of play that online offers. We haven’t had any issues with saves on multiplayer mode. Our equipment and progression hasn’t been lost. You can even trade equipment amongst one another. We just make sure to end our session in Bree (or another camp like hub where it is saved automatically). Overall, this is a very classic way to revisit Middle Earth that fans can appreciate and enjoy for a reasonable price.

When you play multiplayer, ONLY the host keeps their progress, your friends who join lose EVERYTHING. TERRIBLE MULTIPLAYER EXPERIENCE. DO NOT BUY if you planned on playing with friends.

Seems like a solid port so far. Played this a bunch as a kid. Now I'll get to play it with my kids. Thank you Aspyr!
