Turbine Revises Story Character’s Death Due to Player Feedback

**Update 18 Spoiler Alert**

MadeOfLions recently posted on the forums about an upcoming revision to the way a character from the Epic Story dies.

“I think this is one of those cases where an idea that worked reasonably well on the page maybe didn’t translate as well into the game. For the next update, Hal won’t come across as quite so much of a laughing sociopath, Aragorn won’t be standing idly by while the action happens, and Gothmog won’t be attacking Hal to get him to stop laughing, he’ll be attacking Aragorn in order to finish things once and for all. I think the new version probably works better, even if the underlying story isn’t really that different.

To me this is a big change and I am glad it is taking place.  I felt the emotion expected out of the audience didn’t flow well and this change should create a more satisfying ending to a beloved character.
