Hello all, this topic is most certainly late and has most likely already been discussed, but I'm curious to know what the Community and Team's opinions are of the now completed Season 1 of Amazon's "The Rings of Power" are. I hope this doesn't spark fierce debate
As a warning, there may be spoilers below:
My personal opinion, having watched it December - January, I have to say that it was interesting and engaging and I'm looking forward to a Season 2. The lore changes are certainly questionable, but as a fan of the Hobbit trilogy, they did not truly affect my view; in fact, they made me more curious as to which direction the series will go in time. Overall it was not what I was expecting.
Another reason I wanted to bring up this topic, besides discussing the series, was to wonder what place the series has in the Edain Mod, if any? Will it be of any inspiration to design? Will we eventually see some of the voices added (whether through the Mod or through a Submod)? Will new maps be added, inspired by the locations visited by the series? These questions have been in my mind for quite some time, though I suspect the answer may not be as simple as "yes" or "no".
Whatever the answer, I will await patiently for it, as well as what the Community and Team have to say about the series.
