I like LEGO games, but I missed a lot of the older ones. I already played LEGO The Hobbit which plays better LEGO LotR but this has the better story. I currently only beat the main game; I plan on going back and 100% it. Like most LEGO games, trying to get 100% will at least double the playtime since you have a lot of quests and have to replay all the stages. If you are new to LEGO games, I would recommend playing LEGO City Undercover, DC Super-Villains or Star Wars: The Force Awakens. After playing those and you want more LEGO games, then I would recommend playing this and The Hobbit.

I played this on the SteamDeck. I had use Proton-GE. The game froze on me once but not sure if that was due to Proton or being an older Lego game. Game crashed on me at a cutscene near the end, so I replayed that and played the last 2 stages on my PC with no issues.
