Okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, so I finished the storyline tonight...........................
I am still on the first 50 pages of the Silmarillion, and so I haven't yet come far enough into the Second Age to learn ANYTHING about Celebrimbor other than he was one of the Elves that decided to stay in Middle Earth as opposed to return to the West.
[GAME SPOILER GAME SPOILER GAME SPOILER GAME SPOILER!]
The only thing I have to say is, I much prefer the notion of a benevolent elf smith (Celebrimbor) that is tricked by Sauron, much like how he [Sauron] tricked the Numenoreans into sailing Westward, into forging the rings of power...
The moment I saw Celebrimbor heading up an entire army of Orcs and what can only be assumed to be disillusioned Gondoreans or maybe some Wild Men, I dunno....... Yeah, I kinda tuned out at that point...
Then I saw Celebrimbor jank the one ring right out of Sauron's hand, as opposed to Sauron crafting the ring himself...
This game is awesome, love the open-world style and how gritty it feels... But this story took a dive on me...
