@Jonatha29997038 @TolkienWorldG In the book, they were known as the "Pillars of the Kings" and Frodo mistook them for pillars at a distance. The arms were likely not outstretched at all. (artist: Ruth Lacon)

In the films, the statues are of Isildur and his father, Elendil. In Tolkien’s books, they are Isildur and his brother, Anárion. Fun fact: Peter Jackson wanted them to resemble Aragorn, so he modelled their faces on Viggo Mortensen’s real-life father and grandfather. Viggo didn’t learn this until the premiere, shortly after his grandfather had passed. He called it an honourable legacy.

The ancient town of Pelandros in Gondor is bordered to the north by the River Luthduin - in the distance, Mindolluin looms. #minecraft

@NiklasAstrand Our map is 1:58 but the locations are scaled up closer to 1:2 or 1:1

@ArdaCraft_ If Minas Tirith is to scale, it looks like you could walk from Shire to Mordor in a day.

One of the nice things about working in a modded Minecraft environment is that nobody is ever going to bother making an AI slop generator for your niche of the building community #ConquestReforged

@ArdaCraft_ The issue is studio budget, not feasibility. Huge open worlds already exist. Middle-earth could be done justice with Tolkien lore/maps experts involved. Just look at Minecraft players recreating vast overviews of it.

@juansev00 Middle-earth is an entire continent with a huge array of locations/cultures far beyond anything that any singleplayer game has ever come close to showing. LOTRO has only been able to do it by being in active development for nearly 20 years and they still don't have everything.

@ArdaCraft_ I get your other points, but (3) why is it not possible?

@leerobi08433142 Yes this would be ideal and feasible - a bit of the Shire, a bit of Rohan, a bit of Gondor. There's a reason TW3 didn't attempt to do the whole continent.

@ArdaCraft_ I believe it could be more like the witcher 3 open world, we will get multiple large maps to explore each one set in a different region of middle earth, I don't think it will be one massive open world map, not unless they heavily scaled it down, would love to be wrong

@Morearti If “Tolkien didn’t publish it” counts as “not official” then nothing in the Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales, the Letters, Children of Húrin etc is official either. Don’t be silly

@ArdaCraft_ Not official big guy. Just something he said in passing that 'scholars' ran with. It literally says 'late, unpublished note'.
