Merely a day after it launched, Daedalic Entertainment issued an apology on Twitter surrounding the game\u2019s severe technical problems. Daedalic stressed that they were \u201ccommitted\u201d to releasing patches so players could \u201cenjoy the game to its fullest potential.\u201d The studio previously delayed Lord of the Rings: Gollum a few months for \u201cpolishing\u201d purposes. However, it clearly did not improve much due to it being one of the worst-reviewed titles of 2023. Now, former Daedalic staff members have come forward for the first time, claiming A.I. software actually generated the apology and claimed that the team making the game was set up to fail. Lord of the Rings: Gollum apology was allegedly generated by A.I. program In an interview with the German gaming outlet GameTwo, previous employees of Daedalic Entertainment spoke about everything that went wrong with Lord of the Rings: Gollum. They claimed Daedalic was unaware of the apology before it went out and publisher Nacon was in charge of its release. In addition, the devs revealed that the game\u2019s budget was only around 15 million Euros, far below what many AAA games cost to make. \u201cThere were people working on the game that have been developers for 10, 15, 20 years, and they\u2019re good, but they can\u2019t do magic because they weren\u2019t given the funds,\u201d said former Daedalic senior developer Paul Schulze. \u201cYou can\u2019t just throw more money at something like that, hang on for another year, and then everything will be fine. That\u2019s unrealistic because the game underneath it doesn\u2019t support it.\u201d Since Lord of the Rings: Gollum launched, Daedalic Entertainment has stopped developing games.
