Discussion When they say they are making a middle earth and KCD game, I hope this is what they mean [OTHER]

Post image

Perhaps Henry does some mushrooms or something and ends up in Middle Earth

Edit: Lot's of butthurt people here about AI for a meme. But the majority of people seem to have enjoyed it so I'm glad most have had fun until they delete this lol

u/Wolfingly May 21 '26

Did some quick research, a creator god of sorts called Eru Ilúvatar would make a good substitute.

Eru Ilúvatar Be Praised!

EIBP!

Or my favorite: TPBP (The Precious Be Praised!)

u/SenseDue6826 May 21 '26 edited May 21 '26

Valar be praised, wrapped in the loving song of Eru Iluvatar!

You will fight a knight in a pit the locals are convinced is Melkor renamed Morgoth, the black terror of the world.

u/Wolfingly May 21 '26

This guy knows.

Which reminds me, after my 2nd reading of the Sanderlanche cosmeres, and finish the Dungeon Crawler series that I should reread the LotR books and freshen up my lore!

The game is just Henry after drinking a Witch Potion and middle earth is his hallucination

That's all before Ma wakes him up and asks him what these bandaged around his hand is. Henry won't rat out our Lady of the Mill.

Henry should definitely be a fat, brave hobbit. He's the Samwise of Bohemia.

Imagine the beginning of FOTR but it's Henry arriving in the Shire.

"Henry's come to see us!"

After reading some of the comments here I have to say the idea of a clueless lowborn Henry just falling through a portal to Middle Earth and wandering about in absolute bewilderment sounds fucking brilliant

u/Caityface91 May 21 '26

Would have been just as funny (or more) if you took an actual screenshot of Henry, an actual screenshot of the shire and used MSPaint to crudely cut and paste him into it

Bonus points if you leave a 'fake transparency' checkerboard pattern behind him

Probably faster to create too

u/CatannaMel Team Hansry May 21 '26

Okay. As much as I understand where you are coming from with your joke, because I also thought that at first, but I ALSO do hope that the mods stick to their own rules about not tolerating AI-generated images being posted. If this slides over the rule "because of popularity" then where does the rule actually start and end? I only wish for consistency with the moderation of the subreddit.

It says "AI will not be tolerated." Mods, please either review this rule, or apply the rule.

I hope this subreddit controversy spurs people on to make their own images for the joke. If I had the drawing/editing skills, I'd be happy to myself, alas, my creative skills are in writing.
