The final battle between Talion and Eltariel should have taken place during the events of Frodo & gang's adventure to Mt. Doom. Eltariel intercepts Talion as he tries to save the One Ring. She is ultimately defeated by him, but she delayed him enough so that he can't get to Mt. Doom in time. The One Ring is destroyed. The Nazgul die. The end - fade to black. Special scene after credits: Celebrimbor's ring is lying among some rubble. We see a hooded figure pick the ring up and wear it. The hooded figure removes their hood to reveal their face. Its Ratbag.

Wow. Even though he was unable to free himself from endless torment, even though his family was killed, even though nobody truly supported him, even though he was doing all the work with practically no real payoff, even though he was betrayed by the only 2 other people by his side, he still fought back against evil. Even if Talion ultimately fell to the darkness, he was still a good man, a good husband, a good father, a good soldier, and a hero to the land of Middle-earth. This is no fate for any man.

[@FluffyFrigginFox]

Finally someone with some common sense. Talion is a true hero in every sense of the word. He sacrificed his very own freedom knowing he would eventually fall to the ring. He held off evil for decades even though the ring was consuming him. He did not succumb to the ring right away like everyone else had. He bought time for middle earth to gather heroes to destroy the one ring all the while uncertain if any heroes would come to take his place to save all of Middle Earth.

[@kungfumaster51]

I think Talion is the perfect representation of Sam's speech about the "tales that truly mattered" and how real heroes kept going due to their belief that there was some good in the world, and that it was worth fighting for. He knew what was a stake and as a consequence elected to keep going.

[@EskChan19]

I loved the part where she sees his past and finally understands what she actually did by betraying Talion like she did. Talion was a great character, he had a great development throughout the games, he saw through Celebrimbor and to the very end tried to do the right thing, and fought to buy the heroes time even if noone would ever know he even existed. He was a character worthy of this franchise. I get the gist that they planned to make a sequel to this game featuring Eltariel and Celebrimbor but really, without Talion it just wouldn't be the same. I kind of want a Battle For Middle Earth 3 now, and Talion definitely gotta be a playable hero character.

[@thegamingnoob4304]

hear me out in the 3rd one you choose a side orc talion or celebrimbor and each one causes different endings if you win r dont win if you die as talion then the bright lord wins and everyone is enslaved if talion wins he turns on saouron or whatever idk what happens when he wins if orcs win then well it should be ratbag and ranger if you play as eltariel well its the same as talion like if you lose he wins if yyou win he loses

But that's just me. Thoughts?

[@callum493]

I have a head cannon that he at some point found out (from a book or something similar written by sauron and celebrimbor) how to create a ring. He did so and rid himself of the corruption. Helps my conscious and helps level my hate for this dlc.

[@GreaterGrievobeast55]

@@callum493 that would make for an interesting AU! Might be a bit more plausible if maybe talion learned the forging abilities by experiencing memories of clebrimbor do it. The main issue is tailon is a main with a waining soul, I don’t think he’d have any energy to pour into the ring unlike sauron who’s a maiar or celebrimbor who’s an elf from an age when elves were really OP.

And then the straw that broke the camels back, "You are not alone" take all of that plus sauron's influence. And you get the nazgul that is talion.

@jonahfalcon1970 the hell you bringing isildur into this? This has nothing to do with isildur minus his ring. And the only reason talion has isildur's ring is....wait for it. Because eltariel and celebrimbor betrayed him. By which he was left with 2 choices. Either die and let sauron or celebrimbor take over middle earth. Or put the ring on and hold back the forces. You put on the ring and it corrupts you. The rate of corruption is dependent on the person's will and their resistance. It took talion 80 years to be corrupted by the ring fully. 80 years. But you know what started him down the path of this corruption. Eltariel who for all her worth. All the stuff she spat on about how celebrimbor is evil and that the new ring should be destroyed, takes the ring for herself to finish sauron and leaving the man who has fought a war damn near single handedly to die. And then this broken man. Who wants the war to be over. To just die in his home land. Has to hear from this person who betrayed him, who still wears the ring SHE said was evil, who left hom to die despite his helping her stop the nazgul, and he has to hear about how he's not alone. Again, 80 years of being alone and fighting a war and she says "nah fam, I know I betrayed you but I'm still your homie" I would have snapped like talion too.

[@BamBam-3886]

Talion knew at the end how of his soul was lost to Isildur ring, but Eltariel was corrupted by Celebrimbors ring just like how Galadriel was sort of corrupted by the one ring in The Lord of the Rings when Frodo offered to give it to her.

This ending says everything. When Talion died the place he was walking toward looked more like the Grey Havens to me. I believe that Talion will be resurrected in a third installment of the game that will take place immidiately after he was killed by the explosion of Mount Doom. His task will be to destroy Celebrimbor and the new ring once and for all; bringing about the dominion of men. He will do this to earn forgivness for having become a Nazgul and will be given one of the elven rings of power to do the task. When its all said and done he will go to the Grey Haven, like we saw at the end of "Shadow of War", and depart into the west as a hero and finally be able to rest.

[@Shy4234]

It would be a more fitting end to talion

[@elportero8710]

I think that Monolith is done with this series. Maybe they will a make a sequel campaign in the form of Eltariel fighting Celebrimbor, but they're done making games. Also, if they did make another game then I think it will not be about Talion. Not only would this make sense from a storyline standpoint, but there's just no evidence for it. Why would Talion be resurrected? Not because he was a Nazgul because of the reason he became a Nazgul. He gave himself (willingly) over to Sauron just to protect Middle-Earth from the Bright/Dark lord. If anything, he'd b welcomed with cheers wherever it is that he's going, be it the Gray Havens or Mandos' hall.

[@09stoneheart]

The pass may not be like the Grey Havens as it described in the books, but the developers may be trying to base it on Peter Jackson's depiction. Not to mention there is a moutain range behind Talion, not the sea, as he is walking towards the pass and the Peori mountains should be in front of him if was in Aman going to the halls of Mandos. Also, the last scene with Eltariel shows her as being "called" by Celebrimbor to serve him after having worn his ring for so long. So its unlikely she will oppose him. Especially since we didn't really see her denounce him in the dlc. And defeating Celebrimbor and destoying the new ring may also just be a way for Talion to regain the humanity he lost when Isildur's ring corrupted him. So he can depart into the west as the man he was and not what he became. We will just have to see what they have in mind.

[@sirmonkeys422]

09stoneheart NO. PLEASE NO. HE DIED. D I E D. HE WENT TO VALINOR, THEN LEFT ARDA. STOP MILKING THE FRANCHISE. it's ridiculous enough already.

[@taifhamid1]

well in the true ending it does say that Talion was finally able to be freed from the darkness and you see him throwing away his weapons and armor as he heads into what looks like gondor, i guess it means that he is reunited with his family in death and that after decades and decades of fighting(half of them fighting the dark lord's armies, other half when he finally succumbs to the ring's power and becomes a nazghul) he is finally at peace. I think the game and story could use a new protagonist along with new mission system(make orc armies and conquer orc fortresses gets boring quick, for me at least) also to allow them to explore more of the world of LOTR, i think it would be amazing to see new races, areas outside of mordor and just let the story advance in general instead of pretty much repeat what the previous two games did.

[@nurselaykan3721]

Seems more like backstory for a side-character to me. Backstory for the next game, when the escaped & unchallenged Celebrimbor commands his dominated Bright army for equally destructive purposes, with her as his wraith along the way. She *is* following his call, after all. We all hate her, but I think that's the point. It'll be so satisfying to kill her & then Celebrimbor, one after another - both elves who betrayed Talion once before.

You're missing the point of the story. They made the dlc story to SHOW you how power corrupts you. It corrupted Talion, yes, but the whole point was that at the end, she became a slave to celebrimbor, that’s why she ‘heeded the call’. It just reinforces the point of the main game (and also Lord of the Rings), that anyone can cave to power and the cost of their morals and principles. I like the dlc because it actually makes Etharial an example of this , as she took the ‘moral high ground’ in the main game, claiming that power simply needed to be destroyed, yet now she wields the ring and follows celebrimbor, even after the dark lord is gone. The ending of the dlc is MEANT to show how everyone is flawed when the rings are involved, because she doesn’t even follow her own rules.

Palpatine: talion turn the dark side dew it Talion turns to the dark side Palpatine: goooooood

[@TheWaluigiman1]

It truly is sad to see Talion slowly become a Nazgul. He is a beloved character for myself and watching slowly turn broke my heart, especially since he wanted to simply die in his homeland. But hey, at least we know about the Third game. More Ghost Daddy to come and hopefully more rocking powers.

[@michaelwalton-cf9jq]

My main problem with this DLC is that we kill Talion easily. Even though throughout the main game we build him to be this badass character who can single handedly take down entire fortresses. Just to be fighting an average elf and need help from the nazgul.

Where the hell was she when the Fellowship was founded? Coulda used her.

[@DjKingSultan]

she doest exist (thank god)

[@anotherunreliablenarrator]

Fuck no, she'd betray Frodo at Mount Doom and fail, then say it was his fault anyways.

“I am banished from death,and bound to the flaming eye”.......The MOST BADASS LINE

[@DRAKE_FORTUNATE]

Talion didn't die here. He spent couple decades in preparation, leading up to the war, prior to this fight with Eltariel. After the fight, he fled and became a true Nazgul. He then spent a further few decades searching for the fellowship whem he joined the nine. Eltariel returned during the decades to fight the Nazgul. Later on the ring was destroyed and Sauron waa defeated. Just as this happems, Celebrimbor is also freed. Whether she will unite with him, who knows...

[@GreaterGrievobeast55]

Wait if talions still fighting sauron’s armys after this fight, why is he saying so many things that make it sound like he’s obeying saurons will now?

This is the wrath of Galadriel 😍 5:49

Or the other realization that's come to me is maybe it's just really easy to hate on it new character then to hate on one that you've grown so accustomed to

[@chasehervey2384]

Nope, she's a crap nugget.
