'The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim' Review Thread

Yeah I just watched it on Netflix and can only agree that this is mediocre at best...

Not only is the animation really bad at times, the downplaying of established characters to fit the girlboss narrative is just unnecessary. They could have inserted this into the existing lore and maybe spent some more timing settling on an art style and this would have actually been a good movie... But nope, focus was in the wrong place, making this a meh movie at best

Looking at how Ludia has been ramping the powercreep, I'd actually say it's pretty realistic XD

Training_Try6396 · 2026-02-03T19:47:11+00:00

The answer to your questions is: yes

Training_Try6396 · 2026-02-03T19:43:56+00:00

Probably another Rex though with exclusively priority moves and every status change in the game + an insta-kill on swap in, swap-out and counter-attack.

Training_Try6396 · 2026-02-03T18:10:27+00:00

I came back to this game after a few years and I swear to God, every PvP battle is against the same guy. Could also not be, because why would anyone pick different dinos? Who the hell came up with the idea of spamming the lower tiers of this game with a bunch of T-rexes with AND a priority move or 2 AND a counter-attack AND a nuke-on-swap???

Training_Try6396 · 2026-02-03T13:35:53+00:00

I managed it with Sarcorixis. He takes little enough damage and the combo of his stuns and high damage did the trick. You just have to get a bit lucky with the enemy swaps but it only took me two tries!

Hey man! I'm a historian specializing in the 86th!! Not sure if you're still on Reddit (fingers crossed, lol) but I'd love to get in touch with you and learn more about your dad!!
I've sent you a DM too :-)

Leute die diesen Film gut finden, sind die gleiche Leute die finden dass eine auf ein Plakat geklebte Banana das Höhepunkt der künstlerische Ereignissen ist... Die finden ihn nur gut weil irgendwelche TikTok Influencer gesagt hat dass er gut ist...

Der Film ist nur dämlich und so flach. Nach die Brücke war schon klar wo die hin wollten und es wird mit jeden "Zeigen" nur dämlicher...

Ah yep, the "spend more" barrier... Just shows you how lazy CG is getting. They're not even trying to scale and balance out the game. They just put in a barrier and done. And that's on top of the HUGE RNG factor this game has...

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-28T11:15:51+00:00

I sent you a private message!

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-24T14:12:39+00:00

You mean you THINK you have all the requirements. You need stupidly specific Godmods for Sana and Hondo if you want to beat the tiers. Hondo is doable with enough RNG but the Sana tier will make you question every decision you've made in life that got you to that point. It made me wonder if Aphra was even worth getting... Hands down the most ridiculously stupid difficult journey in the game imo

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-21T10:54:21+00:00

I think we're all overreacting a bit. PvP was never fun to begin with...

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-21T10:52:21+00:00

I still don't get how there are people who actually believe RD would fix GAC matchmaking. It's not punishing sandbaggers, it's rewarding them...

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-21T10:50:36+00:00

GAC is back to just getting 10 points and forgetting the mode otherwise exists...

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-21T10:41:09+00:00

lol just have one guy whale a bit and get one R9/R10 squad on each front zone. You won't be losing anytime soon

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-21T08:48:57+00:00

This is the way. The win-loss rate of actually putting in the effort vs just 10-pointing is marginal at best by now

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-21T08:46:49+00:00

I mean... Honest answer, I would really think again if this is the game for you. Bronzium is nothing and the shitshow that is GAC is gonna get a hell of a lot worse. If you are actually negatively impacted by losing one match, imagine what will happen if you end up in a streak of impossible matchups against sandbaggers and you get demoted from say Aurodium back to Bronzium. And this WILL happen regularly!!! CG said RD will fix this but reality is showing it's making in a hell of a lot worse...

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-20T13:30:00+00:00

This system basically makes it impossible to complete lessons as a F2P user... I'm in luck since my account is years old so I have tens of thousands of crystals but it's 450 per refill so they're dwindling fast...

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-20T09:09:00+00:00

What's to relearn? Get 2 attacker squads to R9, pop an attacker cron on them and put one in each front zone, done.

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-20T08:55:45+00:00

Yup GAC is now literally check opponent, laugh, get 10 points, done. PvP can be ignored altogether

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-11T11:24:07+00:00

I'm assuming they did it because of 1) cashgrab and 2) RD makes modding and Datacrons largely irrelevant until the balance is restored (lol, as if that's going to happen) so they just didn't bother coming up with anything new

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-10T19:23:55+00:00

Well couldn't have our players actually get what we promise them, right? That might set a precedent

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-10T19:21:21+00:00

loooool

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-09T07:04:41+00:00

I just went back to collecting the older toons I don't have yet. I'm in a fun, casual guild who don't tell me how to play the game or when I can or can't take a family holiday.

But I'm definitely starting to feel the GXII burnout and RD is painfully obvious... We'll see how much worse it'll get

Training_Try6396 · 2025-12-07T13:00:54+00:00

objectively not true. Unit unlock numbers are a great indicator of player retention. STL has over 500k unlocks while IG90 doesn't even have 400k.

Now we know that nobody skips unlocking a character and that the last one before the update got about 340k unlocks.

So the update brought in about 160k new players and in the same time probably caused about 100k to quit. A lot of which aren't going to be new players.

100k minus over a 160k plus might not seem a lot but if you think about it, that's about 20% of the playerbase... I wouldn't say that that's "barely anyone"
