LORD OF THE RING

After enduring many months of delays, the developers have finally released The Lord of the Rings: Gollum. However, it has received a large number of negative reviews. It appears that PC and PS5 users have deemed it, the worst-reviewed game ever tested. Two popular review-compiling websites have listed this game as the worst-reviewed game of 2023.

A Terrible Reception:

Both Metacritic and OpenCritic placed The Lord of the Rings: Gollum at the bottom of the game list released in 2023. Many review sites have given it exceptionally low scores.

Glitches and Technical Problems:

Reviewers have mentioned different technical issues that hinder the game. From the appearance of Gollum’s rigid legs when fitting to a beam to his hair clipping through his forehead.

The game exhibits numerous visual glitches. Additionally, there are animation glitches that further detract from the overall experience. The players were forced to restart levels due to the delay in the audio display and falling inside ramps and walls.

Underwhelming Story:

The game techs are unable to capture the audience even at the first center of the game where Gollums tries to escape from Mordor in a meaningful way. Outdated applications used show that this app was created in a less meaningful way.

Critical Reception:

Reviews obtained from different sites have been negative. Ben Sledge’s review awarded The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum a meager 1.5 stars out of five, criticizing its dated graphics, facial animations, and flat textures. Push Square mentioned the game as a “broken mess” with outdated level design, clunky controls, unimpressive graphics, and a dull story. GInfinity compared the game to its titular character, labeling it “ugly, malformed, and infested with bugs.”

Comparison to Other Poorly-Rated Games:

Clive ‘N’ Wrench and Crime Boss: Rockay City hold the second and third place for the worst-reviewed games of the year, according to Metacritic. Redfall, even with its initial hype, is fifth in line, underscoring the state of The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum.

Conclusion:

The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum proved to be a tragic gaming experience. It was marred by lackluster storytelling, technical issues, and outdated mechanics. Due to the unfavorable reviews and ratings given by many gamers, this game has earned the title of the worst current game of 2023. It stands as a testament to its poor reception and critical reception thus far.
