SPOILER warning but Depending how you played. If you have low honour. You will see a Coyote in the end But if you have high honour. You will see a Deer in the end Each of them represents your fate in life in the end of the game. This is such a beautiful way to immerse a player i think.

I read LotR before The Hobbit and expected them to be similar. I knew The Hobbit was a children’s book, but I expected to see something like a childrens version of King Arthur or Robin Hood that I read as a child. Instead, what I got was a reasonably contemporary novel written for children...

I mean i am fine if it adds up. Like being forced to do something they did not have any say in, fair enough that makes sense. But the whole "I am gonna do evil but i am so innocent"... like that i have never been fan of. Its why LOTR never did that because they are aware of their choices. I...

https://bookstore.wordonfire.org/products/tolkiens-modern-reading "Tolkien’s Modern Reading addresses the claim that Tolkien “read very little modern fiction, and took no serious notice of it.” This claim, made by one of his first biographers, has led to the widely accepted view that Tolkien...

I took these photos on my way to school today. No, I'm not mad. Actually, me and my classmates are going to act in a play tomorrow. That's why we need a bow. As a tolkienist, I own one. We'll take part in the event called approximately "The Last School Bell". :)

Modern Sword Fighting (MSF) is a kind of sport invented in Russia. It's really exciting and it can give you some skills that are useful for Role Playing Games. I've been taking Modern Sword Fighting classes for about a year. And I'm going to share some information about MSF in this thread. In...

Was this a phenomenon of Numenorean civil wars?Yeah, classes's conflicts massively increased, keeping deteriorated of public security, policy's dramatically decreased of poll, as well as all kinds of domestic problems obviously started appearing during the final years of Numenor. What do you...

So, here's another story that just, rather, "Birthed itself", in the recesses of my writer's mind, 'In the Midst and Wake of flaming carnage, when the world is engulfed in dying conflagration, a lone survivor must unlock the secrets of his past through scraps of his lost brother's notes...

I keep hearing people talking about George RR Martin like he's the second coming of Tolkien. Now don't get me wrong, I enjoy Game of Thrones, but I kind of find it offensive - the comparison. Yes, there are many similarities between the two writers, but the fact of the matter is that every...

I think Lisa Gerrard - Devotion has a sad, Elven departure feel to it. I think Veni Veni Bella by Medieval Baebes has a nice Rohirric Celebration feel to it. I think Faun - Tinta has a Numenorean feel to it. I think Dido - My Lover's Gone has a sad Aldarion and Erendis, Numenorean feel to it. I...

I was talking to someone yesterday about the beginnings of the Fantasy genre...so I looked it up...and low and behold... JRR Tolkien is considered by most to be the father of modern Fantasy Literature! No wonder everyone says that "so-and-so stole Tolkien's ideas"! They have to! He is the...

TTFers with access to a library or with online access to a periodicals database may be interested in Modern Fiction Studies, Vol 50, Issue 4, which is devoted to Tolkien.

It is a widely popular opinion that the genre of modern fantasy began with Tolkien, when he penned the first tales of Middle-Earth. I, however, find this theory lacking. While I do enjoy Lord of the Rings immensely, I really can't bring myself to say that Tolkien invented the fantasy genre...

If Aragorn lived in modern times, what would he do? Would he be a politician? A doctor? A military man? Or would he play professional sports? If he did play professional sports, what sport would he play? What current person most resembles Aragorn- in action, attitude, character, looks...

What breed of modern day dogs do you think is closest to what you think Huan to be. I think he has to be an Old English Mastiff... Any other opinions? (Being a dog lover, Huan happens to be one of my favourite characters).
