Greetings, me and this friend where having an bit of an debate.
Lord of the rings vs Star Wars.
What has more lore?
This includes the use of games(things like kotor and shadow of mordor), comics, tv series, and same world different stories.

Movies and books as well ofcourse,

Well Star Wars has been pimped out so much, the license has been used by everything for years. Way more than LOTR has in my opinion.

Lord of the Rings hands down.

Tolkien created multiple languages, a 3000 year history, an intricately explained beginning and an entire world accurately mapped out to the last detail.

Star Wars also is on par with that, with the old republic games, supplying with gigantic amount of lore, comics that go on for generations, withstand grandchildren of Luke sky walker and much story.

Star wars has a larger universe that has had countless books made on it.In terms of scale, Star Wars wins.

However, I'd almost still say the quality of Tolkien's world wins. The detail of Beleriand, and Middle-Earth with the countless tie ins andevents that can be marked are greater imo than the star wars world.

Quantity: SW
Quality: Tolkien by faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...aaaaar

it can't compare to the masterpiece of Tolkien

Not to mention the beginnings of the SW movies are extremely similar to ... Ah nvm

PS: I haven't played Shadow of Mordor but everything in it that is not directly taken out of the books, texts or letters is not part of the lore, same for Peter Jackson's trilogy (no matter how much I love it), the only genuine lore is in the books, texts and letters of John Ronald Reuel Tolkien and to some degree Christopher Reuel Tolkien

Let the inconsistency, mess and clusterf??? of different (and many times incompetent) authors be a trait of lesser fantasy works
