The RPG Fanatic Review Show - ★ Lord of the Rings: The Third Age Review ★
146https://rpgfanatics.com Review for LOTR: The Third Age (2004) for the PS2 by EA Games. The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age is a 2004 console role-playing game by EA Games for PlayStation 2, Xbox and Nintendo Gamecube. The player controls a core group of characters that are used during the adventure, leveling up according to experience gained from battles and quests.
The plot of The Third Age involves Berethor, a Captain of the Citadel Guard of Gondor, who is traveling to Rivendell to find Boromir, one of the nine members of the Fellowship of the Ring. On his way to Rivendell, he is attacked by a group of Ringwraiths and almost killed, but is rescued by a female elf named Idrial, who is a servant of Galadriel. There, Gandalf the Grey informs them that Boromir is traveling with him and the rest of the Fellowship, and that they are headed in the direction of Moria.
On the way to Moria, Berethor and Idrial meet up with Elegost, a Dúnedain Ranger. He informs them that he was traveling to Moria with a dwarf. After a series of events, they rescue with Hadhod, a dwarf warrior, from a troll. Upon entering Moria, the newly formed fellowship narrowly escape with the help of Gandalf. They also help Gandalf to slay the Balrog at the Bridge of Khazad-dûm. Despite their best efforts, Gandalf still falls into shadow. Following certain events after leaving Moria, the party learns of Boromir's death, and the group is charged with helping what is left of the original film/book Fellowship to save the world of men in Middle-earth. They continue through the land of Rohan, meeting along the way Morwen, a lady of Rohan who has lost her family to Saruman's attacks, and Éoaden, a member of Théoden's Royal Guard. Berethor and company help to muster the Rohirrim, and they arrive at Helm's Deep to aid Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli to fight off the Uruk-hai as they storm the fortress.
After this they journey to Gondor and the city of Osgiliath. There they help Faramir defeat Gothmog the orc commander, as well as several Ringwraiths. It is revealed that Berethor was stabbed by a Morgul Blade (similar to Frodo on Weathertop). They find that Berethor was tasked with finding Boromir so that Berethor could bring the One Ring to Saruman, and then to Sauron. The company then makes its way to Minas Tirith and finally help Éowyn defeat the Witch-king on the Pelennor Fields and defeat the Mumaks. After defeating the 8 remaining Nazgûl, the warriors head to Mordor, where they face off with the Eye of Sauron itself, and destroy it. There, the game ends with Gandalf telling Berethor that Middle-Earth's tales will continue.
How I review games:
Unlike many game reviewers I try to review a game from the perspective of who I believe the target audience of the game is supposed to be.
If I personally don't belong to the target audience for the game I'm reviewing, I try to consider if the intended target audience would enjoy the game or not.
