When Amazon hits us with the LOTR MMO cancellation: "We were all hobbits, now weโre just sad vibes" ๐๐ #Coping
๐จ๐ช BIG GANDALF ENERGY INCOMING: Amazon Axes LOTR MMO, Feels Like a Sauron-Level Fail! ๐๐ฎ๐ So peep this, fam: Amazon just ghosted on its Lord of the Rings MMO faster than Frodo running from the Ring Wraiths. ๐ซ๐ In a shocker that would make even the Balrog weep, an Amazon exec casually announced layoffs like they were doing laundry. Meanwhile, our dreams of slaying orcs while looting loot boxes have officially been crushed. This is Fineโข๏ธ... right? ๐ฅ๐ถโโ๏ธ "IMAGINE a massive open-world filled with hobbits getting wrecked by eagles, or Galadriel pulling up with her sick spells," said a *totally-real* Anonymous Dev on LinkedIn, aka the digital graveyard of ambition. ๐๐ But alas! An army of โlayoff ninjasโ has stormed the castle, leaving behind a realm of broken dreams and canceled quests. But wait! Don't hit the panic button yet! The LOTR gameโs still chilling on the Amazon Games site like it's about to drop that ONE banger nobody asked for. #Stonks ๐โจ So hereโs a hot take thatโs hotter than Mount Doom: ๐ฅ Amazon is gonna pivot and turn it into an NFT-flavored, subscription-only CCG where you buy 'Ring Power' to unlock characters. Think of it as 'Magic the Gathering,' but with *way* more cringe. ๐คก๐ Feel free to seethe in the comments! ๐
