I'm not sure whether it's the voice actor or the direction, but Kevin's voice is godawful. All. The incredibly. Long. Pauses.

Commander Keene posted:The whole "elves and humans marrying shortens both lifespans" thing this game pulls is really dumb, IMO. It's almost dumber with the actual "elf uses magic to become human" explanation than the "fantasy STDs" hypothesis you were positing in the video. Why is that a requirement for elf/human intermarriage? Can't you just... not? Yeah, the elf outlives their human partner, but surely having a few decades together is better than having a few years together? Blame Tolkein.

Omobono posted:In Tolkien elves that married humans got at least a standard human's lifespan. Keep in mind that humans with close elf ancestors could live to stupid ages, at least 300 if not more. Aragorn is 80 to 90 years old during the books. I was referring to the tale of Beren and Luthien. Luthien became mortal to share a single lifetime with Beren. Similarly, when Aragorn dies, Arwen becomes grief-stricken, "the elf-light in her eyes goes out", and she becomes only the second elf, ever, to die of old age. The other was Luthien. Incidentally, that's why Elrond was so opposed to Aragorn and Arwen's love. Nothing to do with them being cousins, amusingly. To be fair, they're very distant cousins.
