I'd disagree, it doesn't need to be a gaming franchise at all. It didn't need to be films either, as much as I enjoyed them, not everything has to be franchised out and milked for all it's worth.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could admire works of art and appreciate them for what they are instead of having vultures circle above looking to extract the very marrow of what makes it special.

Pretty sure this is why the Tolkien estate has historically been so tight fisted with the property. We all knew this would happen.
