Return to Moria Sandbox Mode - First Look w/ Devs!

[@sagmanbennettrobbinsoppenh2926]

@30:50 Me and my daughter play together on PS5 and we actually have a little base built outside the mountain. It was in either Dwarrowdelf or Barazinbar, there was a doorway to go through, but it had a bright purple area above it. We built a wood platform and hopped right up out of it on top of the mountain. There was nothing outside but a purple sky and the diamond sections you can't break, and many big rocks to climb. Some sections would glitch away and you could see the game areas from way up above. We built the little base right at the doorway we came up through and slapped a Mapstone in the corner to ensure our return. Nothing at all to do out there, but it was cool to get out for a bit and breathe some purple haze air. We took pics and video for proof as well. There IS a way out!

[@sunsettersix6993]

So happy to see the devs continuing to improve this game! I really enjoy base building in survival games and love to see the improvements related to that.

[@vaguehenri802]

Banger game. Loved playing it with my friends. You can really tell that there is some heart in it.

[@minecraftstarfleets1840]

I would love to see domestication. We need to be able to build a farmstead/ranch! :-) Love the game and the dedication to Tolkiens lore.

[@damianritter4142]

There's hints of that when you look at the pig/wolf things

[@jorgeguillen8655]

They should make an openworld lotr with good vs evil

[@Kingkit25]

Isn't that just shadow of war?

[@jorgeguillen8655]

@maykeegan7574 i meant a new lotr game base off the movies but open world were u can pick ur own faction

[@Morgoth_The_First_Lord1]

They need to make a game where you're just a ranger among the people of Middle Earth. Going to fight, sell, buy to live and protect places like the shire, Gondor, Rohan, and even just watch over the elven great halls. It would be fun for this to be an open world. Exploring every inch of Middle Earth that the films never imagined and showed.

[@tylerdurden7965]

for sure, like a MMO similar to MUME with the same level of detail and respect to the source material. Brutal PvP, no handholding and real consequences for death. That would be amazing

[@CarlGorn]

Bighorn sheep would make for awesome Dwarf pets.

[@KAISERaw17]

Love this game, hope it gets more love and support! So many opportunities for dwarves to expand into more of Moria, other mountains even!

[@CarlGorn]

Rather than rails, I could see Dwarves carving tracks into the stone that serve a similar purpose. Moreover, they could be filled with oil to lubricate the way railroad tracks have grease.

[@_thenothing8249]

Looking forward to release on Steam when ever it may come. Also will there be any of the iconic Moria locations from the books?

[@james.beatty]

There are a few, yes. Like when Gandalf is lost in the books, where three paths lay ahead. The left foul smelling direction is the end region in-game. A wizard's rune even marks that spot so players will notice it's indeed from the books.

[@ziplockbag3243]

will they be fixing the mining song bug? that almost made me stop playing

[@OdeeOz]

Well played mates! 👍👍👑

[@taddymason4980]

Love the channel.. just wish the voice volume levels were more even. Can barely hear a couple of voices but one of them is deafening in comparison. Quite hard to watch without getting frustrated 😔

[@peacemaker2023]

Enjoying this game just started playing on ps5 on tier 2 cant wait to finish campaign and do sandbox infinite possibilities i can only imagine tier 100 . Love to.see indie studios kicking the crap out of triple aaa studios one of the very few games i love to play. Most games i hate. Im getting bored of gameing but yours is a gem keep going guys.

[@landonmurray3813]

Who needs a "box" when you have other dwarves!

[@Hyakman5408]

4:28 This is what Amazon should have been saying from the beginning. Instead, they just crapped in a bucket and said, "This'll work!"

[@Wolf-hb9kf]

Can we please be able to rename mapstones? I hate having to always tell my fellow dwarves what mapstone the base is

[@neroolj]

You can do it. Open map stone waypoint on map🙃

[@zlatar_ibraglóin]

Not on PS5 you can't

[@nicknite7475]

Awesome

[@joshyjohnson5287]

27:30 Poor Ballgag got dwarf-handled.

[@norsepnw3578]

Meanwhile the devs have wrote off the xbox players games been out on PC and PS5 for months now smh

[@ZampanosCat]

Will some of these updates like the music updates and the color updates to the map be included in the campaign mode, or only the sandbox mode?

[@NerdoftheRings]

It’s throughout the game, so it will be in both!

[@blackbeardspider]

Dumb question, I know this is on PC, but does it let you use your character from campaign and anything on your person in sandbox mode or does it make you create a new character and start over?

[@johnconstantine2754]

On PS5, this game has more glitches than any other game I have ever played. I love it and will continue to play it, but the music lag is awful.

[@zlatar_ibraglóin]

Yep, I'm having the same issues. I love the game so much though, that I'm gonna buy a PC, 😂

[@palevale]

i hope they add defensive structures such as spike walls or crossbow turrets at some point

[@barukkazhad8998]

My boy and I play lotrol together as Dwarves....we are looking forward to playing this

[@Gaminggma]

I’m on a PS5 so I know it will be a bit for the update. But I am curious, in the current version I would get so lost because the maps did not help at all in finding my base because I couldn’t keep track if I was up or down or which side of an area. Will this be even more difficult with all the different levels? Or will the map I am looking at be only for the level I am currently on?

[@keithtaylor5535]

i wish they would bring back war in the north

[@rivercitysasquatch9421]

When will this be available for PS5 in Japan? Only seems like the Gollum is available….i settled foe that game because after watching the playthrough here i wanted to get Moria but could not..

[@Newt211]

How do you delete map icons you place?

[@stevehess2426]

im having an problem looking for the ubasam wood normaly drops from the mushroom trees and now they dont are they droping off somethin else i have been all over to the point i cant kill the orcs with what weapons i am able to make at this point of the game

[@ttandc]

Have you guys found these red and blu altars? I open them but nothing is inside.

[@terrycrook2349]

will this be the version out shortly?

[@cptpawn7035]

guys what is the sandbox mode? is there new places or bioms?

[@hatchicus6242]

We need dedicated servers or match making!

[@michaelclinard3354]

Add snaping to building peices.!!!

[@georgeblair3894]

Had the Horde bug out on me * twice * at Forge of Narvi. No steel ingot recipe. Uninstalled (Steam). Wrote the appropriate review.

[@TheKingofGondor]

Can someone comment if there is a beginning and end to sandbox like there is in campgain ?

[@pascastro9928]

I would like if the game didn´t lag when hitting the orcs. Specially when charging an attack. I love the rest bur those staggering moments of FPS drop or lag just bother me a lot. Still, I love the game and the lore, the mining and survival factor, the exploration everything else!

[@crehenge2386]

Haven't been able to play since the december update, and the devs said they couldn't fix it. Hope this update fixes it

[@dominiclusetti546]

Should play more

[@serenajohnson1101]

HI..NERD OF THE RINGS...WHEN IS THE NEW UPDATE SAND BOX COMING ON THE PS5..PLZ CAN YOU FIND OUT...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@serenajohnson1101]

WOULD BE GREAT IF YOU COULD MAKE..BATHROOMS AND SHOWERS..STEAM BATHS FROM THOSE STEAM VENTS THAT YOU COVER UP WITH ROCKS..

[@vannahsa3]

How is nobody interested in the Glittering Caves?

[@guui5]

Man, i want to suggest something. If you can speak with the developers to put unlockable character of the LOTR Saga! Like Aragorn, Legolas and Gmili!

[@VictoriousWatchman]

You mean a game than isn’t woke? No DEI Dwarves? I’m in!

[@UkrainianPaulie]

Need an open world LOTR game like LOTRO, but modern. No interest in this game, but enjoy.

[@michaelcolton9530]

iPad port please🙌🏼🙌🏼 tell the developers I want to be able to play on my iPad Pro on the go

[@Wally_stad]

I’ll never understand how LOTR, one of the most popular IP’s of all time, has only this to offer in 2024. What a mismanagement. Gollum, this, and the upcoming shire game are embarrassing.

[@kgdw.2k919]

It definitely has something to do with the rights. I think select companies own majority and unless you’re Amazon you probably can’t get anything.

[@neiloconnor7776]

This is quite good though

[@isaiasherrero7889]

It’s still good though.

[@joynerplays5643]

Then click off and piss off

[@timberwolfdan5910]

This game is friggin awesome! What the hell are you talking about, bro?

[@electricmayhem8147]

was disapointed. its hard solo cant get through the hordes for the black items to rebuild the bridge. i love the game but i cant play it.....

[@kevin4324]

You don’t need the hordes to advance. The boss fights give exactly the BD needed. If its not bugged.

[@electricmayhem8147]

@@kevin4324 i beat the elf area and orc town. but i guess im supposed to look for black colored stones on the ground and mine them now too. or i did get a bugged world. either way, not fun.

[@TheHiggybaby]

The update allows you to change the difficulty now. I set it to "Solo" in my own build and it's now much more manageable.

[@electricmayhem8147]

@@TheHiggybaby thank you. i just changed it now.

Not on Steam, not interested.

You can still be interested and play on console you fool. Stop being so arrogant and elitist.🙄

[@coreymckee4844]

They literally said it's coming to steam grow the f*ck up.🙄

[@Morgoth_The_First_Lord1]

This game must be made: Open world next generation graphics. Lord of The Rings game. It should include the following. All races from Tolkeins writings. You should have a choice of which Side you wanna join. It should be 3d to first person. Epic violance for middle earth is beyond anything we could ever imagine. It should have fhe agriculture of ever race. Should have a key point of ever race. Such as Gondor as men, Shire for hobbits, Rivindell for the elves, and Mordor or Even Gundabad. You should be able to edit your character like you want. And join the main big battles of middle earth from all ages. Infact this game that will probably never be made should play through ever age. 1-3. Bot 4 since the evil was destroyed other than Tolkeins never finished book of A New Shadow.

[@MichaelCopley216]

[@MichaelCopley216]

[@Semirotta]

Damn this game is so bad :DD but such is any game made with the money in mind. These games using brands trying to roll with the fame of the name with no quality what so ever.

[@SuperJoss97]

You are talking about greed when the price of the game has been permanently reduced by $20. The game isn't perfect, but it also doesn't have the ambition to be treated as a triple-A. It was made by people who love the source material and demonstrated that in every part of it. It may not have the structure or design you want but it is far too simplistic to say that "the game is bad." I hope you have at least tried it before judging.

[@ericmorneau7758]

Yikes this is a modern game?

[@neiloconnor7776]

It’s called an art style not everything needs to have “realistic” graphics
