Gollum dev says it’s charging for the precious Elvish-language DLC because it had to train voice actors in how to speak it

Developer Daedalic Entertainment has belatedly explained why its upcoming The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, releasing on 25 May, has paid-for DLC that adds more Elvish to the game. As part of the game’s pre-order campaign it’s been offering the perfectly named ‘Precious’ special edition (opens in new tab), which comes with four extras that players of the standard edition will be able to buy as DLC. One of these is a voice-over expansion for the Elvish language Sindarin, which basically makes the elves speak more in their mother tongue while you wander this version of Middle-earth.

Well, it turns out that all players will hear some Sindarin, but that this adds more of it, and the studio says the price reflects the effort involved in adding it as a spoken language.
