Tolkien basiert. Da Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment die Rechte fÃ¼r die Entwicklung von Videospielen hat, die auf Inhalten der Herr-der-Ringe-BÃ¼cher und -Filme beruhen, konnte Entwickler Snowblind bekannte erzÃ¤hlerische Aspekte in die mehr als 12 verschiedenen SchauplÃ¤tze des Spiels einbinden, von denen in der Trilogie lediglich 3 zu sehen sind.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDer Herr der Ringe: Der Krieg im Norden bringt mit einem Koop-Modus, bei dem die Aktionen der Spieler miteinander in Wechselwirkung stehen, frischen Wind ins RPG-Genre. Bis zu drei Spieler grÃ¼nden ihr eigenes BÃ¼ndnis und ziehen gemeinsam in brutale Schlachten. Bis dato unbekannte Gegenden, Geschichten und Charaktere stehen dabei ebenso auf dem Programm wie aus den Herr-der-Ringe-Filmen vertraute Elemente. ZusÃ¤tzlich lassen komplexe Charakter-Individualisierung\/Entwicklung, umfangreiche Koop-Gameplay-Optionen, verbesserbare SpezialfÃ¤higkeiten und aufrÃ¼stbare Waffen die Herzen von Rollenspiel-Fans hÃ¶her schlagen. Um Saurons Truppen im Norden den Garaus zu bereiten, ist echte Team-Arbeit gefragt - oder die Spieler sind gemeinsam dem Untergang geweiht!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-2 Spieler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-3 Spieler Online Multiplayer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-3 Spieler System Link\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJe 1 MB SpielstÃ¤nde\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-3 Spieler Coop Modus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChatfunktion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDolby Digital\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDownloadbare Spielinhalte\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHDTV 720p \/ 1080i \/ 1080p\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnterstÃ¼tzt Coop Modus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plot of Lord of the Rings: War in the North takes place within the time frame of the events experienced in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/person\/47273\/j-r-r-tolkien\/\"\u003eJ. R. R. Tolkien's\u003c\/a\u003e books as well as the series of films from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/search\/?q=Peter+Jackson\"\u003ePeter Jackson\u003c\/a\u003e. While the adventure in this game intertwines with that of Frodo and the Fellowship, it primarily takes place in other areas of the Middle Earth map. The player's character and two companions (which can be either computer controlled or co-op controlled with two friends) serve to support Frodo's grand quest by battling Sauron's \"General\" and his minions in the north. The adventure and that of the main story from Lord of the Rings overlap at certain points and there is definitely a connection, but the player does not control any of the main characters from the original story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe three canonical character types are available to play, Eradan the (human male) ranger, Andriel the (elf female) mage, and Farin the (dwarf male) warrior. One of the three predefined characters is selected at the start of the game. There is no character creation, but within the game is an option to tweak the look by using mirrors in certain locations. Also at certain locations it is possible to switch to one of the other two characters to control or simply continuing on as the character that was started with. Each character can be played as a range fighter or a melee fighter, or a combination of the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe events are entirely linear, with the path set out before you with obvious goals and quests. It is not an open world game that can be freely explored and were the given quests can be ignored. The game is segmented into areas that are accessed by clicking on the place name on the map screen. Many of them have central hubs for resting, trading, shopping and acquiring new quests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gameplay largely revolves around fighting creatures. Each area is filled with orcs, goblins, spiders, trolls, and other minions of Sauron. Melee fighting is handled with a combination of standard hits and special moves. It is also possible to block and dodge (rolling). Range fighting is handled in the same way. The two companions use their own set of skills to assist in the battle and can be instructed by the player in the solo mode. Characters can be upgraded with new abilities through the game and there are often conversations with different options, but with no moral ramifications. Each character class has unique abilities such as mining gems and destroying walls for the dwarf for instance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*** Data
