This looks a bit underwhelming, and I'm not even meaning the visual style they leaned towards. I just think the combat looks a bit flat and the adventuring about the caves that I've seen in other gameplay has seemed rather stiff and lifeless (for lack of a more apt descriptor because I haven't played it)

Anyone else think this is missing some polish and spirit?

At the end of the day, it doesn't matter how much polish goes into it. A polished turd is still but a turd..

Yeah definitely didn't do a good job of really making me wanna play it, though it does look significantly better then gollum did, but that's not a very high bar to cross.

I'm having a ton of fun playing it with friends. One of the best games I've played this year. We had to drag ourselves off of it so we could go to sleep.
