The Lord of the Rings: Gollum First Screenshots ~ PS5, Xbox Series X & PC

Looks OK I guess. A bit uninspired design imo.

 

[GymWolf]

gollum's face tho

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Glad we got all them teraflops coming our way. Look at this glorious beauty. Totally impossible on today's hardware.

Yea after looking at it more its current gen graphics at best

 

[azz0r]

It looks a bit better if you go to the source images: https://29-allgamesdelta.s-ul.eu/9cNjY3vH

but if this is next gen, consider me dissapointed

 

[Agnostic2020]

I m assuming this is one of the games being revealed on Thursday MS event ?

Current gen? It looks like a mediocre PS3 game, lighting effects excluded.

Thank God it's not a PS5 exclusive, otherwise X-Bots would have a field day with those screenshots.

It's obvious this artstyle goes for a Knack kind of thing - you can clearly see it with the beasts, but people will compare the visuals with those of Shadow of Mordor and that will be the game's visual downfall.

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

I'm going to assume this is an early build of a generation we know not much about it, and that includes developers and their lack of knowledge of how to utilize the console's power to its limits.

Still, looks decent enough, which only gets me more excited for the next generation.

Gollum: The Hobbitkind Odyssey

What in the fuck is with Gollum's face? That's as bad as that initial Sonic.

And those beasts. The one second from the right looks cartoonish, almost like a hyena from the original animated Lion King.

 

[Dibils2k]

for sure more complex environment but textures and that look rough

CONSOLE LAUNCH GAMES: THE GAME

 

[Den_John]

If this is next-gen, please cancel PS5 and XSX. Not liking this graphical style.

 

[SentientStone]

Art style is more important to me than raw graphics, though I am sure that Golem has all the next gen pores and hair.

"You will keep an eye on him, won't you?"
"Two eyes, as often as I can spare them"

Well Knack was GotG, so too bad this isn’t PS5 exclusive.

 

[sublimit]

Can't say i'm impressed.

Unfortunately the art style here is really bad. Realistic worlds and cartoony characters isn't a good look.

 

[Jaxx_377]

Quality aside, What the hell is up with Gollums face. it just doesn't loo right at all.

 

[Perrott]

Any of the Mordor games on PC looks better than this.

Whats wrong ?

 

[Starfield]

That doesn't look very next gen to me. Wait for may 7th to see what we can expect from an early "next gen" 3rd party title (AC:V)

 

[Nickolaidas]

There are quite a few games which make me say to myself … "Why is this game being made?" This is one of them.

I mean, who thought that 'Boy, wouldn't it be cool to make a game about a crazy, pathetic being who talks to itself and gets bullied and beat up by everyone while it chows down on fish and imagines having a piece of jewelry' and someone actually greenlit this project?

 

[Dacon]

Holy shit this looks horrible omg

I m assuming this is part of Thursday show hence the leak

Going by at least one of the screenshots they at least had a thought of having it based around him having serious issues mentally, but I somehow doubt it'll turn into the next Hellblade.

 

[Nickolaidas]

Whats wrong ?

 

[SaucyJack]

Presumably as it's Daedilic (developer of the Deponia games) this is going to be a point and click graphic adventure/puzzle game?

 

[Lanrutcon]

Gross.

 

[Kev Kev]

looks like im going to be enjoying my new ps4 pro for a lot longer

lol, nah jk, it'll be a couple years or more before we see what these new systems can really..... at least i think that sounds logical? i dunno anything abut game design so.... just seems like itll take some time before devs can get the most out of the new tech

 

[sonomamashine]

A mediocre port.

 

[SleepDoctor]

Holy shit i had to even get a second take on those pics. This shit looks bad. Besides, who ever said "damn it would be awesome if they made a game where you could be Gollem"?

 

[H4ze]

You guys are acting like every launch game before was a graphic wonder smh

Yeah, this doesnt look very appealing, but it's still not a finished game

 

[amigastar]

It looks a bit better if you go to the source images: https://29-allgamesdelta.s-ul.eu/9cNjY3vH

but if this is next gen, consider me dissapointed

Graphics will only get better from now on, its one of the launch titles.

 

[Tamy]

Glad we got all them teraflops coming our way. Look at this glorious beauty. Totally impossible on today's hardware.

its a small team working on it, relax.

 

[Esppiral]

The ground looks nice and detailed

 

[Stuart360]

Hate the art style, was hoping for super realistic.

 

[INC]

'Next gen'............lol

 

[PumpkinPie]

Taters gonna tate.

It is not next gen, of course. GTAVI, Battlefield 6, etc will be next Gen.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

I'm aware. I've played a bit of Deponia. Having some fun with it.

 

[mejin]

who the fuck wants to play as Gollum?

 

[splattered]

Looks awful and I like stylized games. Meh.

 

[OneShotThrill]

Takes a look at screenshots....

 

[Stuart360]

 

[Honey Bunny]

Dark Sector anybody?

 

[GreenAlien]

There is something really off about the artstyle. I'm all for more LotR games, but this isn't what I have in mind... It's mostly the living things.. the environments are nice.

Well.. maybe it grows on you, I didn't initially like Wind Waker either.

 

[HE1NZ]

Looks okay to me. Cool art style. You guys are expecting too much. I don't think next gen is going to look all that different on screenshots.

 

[martino]

not bad in the end i you look beyond DA.

 

[Keihart]

Nice high res texture i guess? looks like a mobile game running on PC.

I completely agree. The environment looks good but the creatures are all so average at best
