Thanks. I kind of get what you're saying, but the mental image I had in my head of what a fantastical and whimsical place the Shire would be is reflected closely in that trailer. I'm getting that it's not a "Lord of the Rings" game, but rather that it's based on Tolkien's description of life in the Shire as I imagined it from reading the books.
"The assumption that animals are without rights, and the illusion that our treatment of them has no moral significance, is a positively outrageous example of Western crudity and barbarity. Universal compassion is the only guarantee of morality."
