LotR > Elder Scrolls > Witcher => GoT.

Can't really say much about Berserk.

TES Lore is garbage. Berserk doesn't have much lore. Game of thrones ha somewhat interesting lore. Witcher lore is somewhat interesting. I've heard lord of the rings has the best world building which is why it influenced so many series.

Who the hell puts Berserk in a lore contest?! For real, most of the series' lore is still unknown because the manga chapters only gets published for like 4 times a year.

Anyway, Lotr takes this.

LOTR is leagues above the others.

Having said this, Forgotten Realms has some pieces of lore which are really engaging, for me, most of the elven history is awesome, from Kethryllia Amarillis crusade to the abyss, to The Crown Wars, to Zaor Moonflower becoming the one true king of the elves. Netheril's lore is also very engaging. In short most of the past history of the realms is fascinating.

Elder Scrolls in a stomp, the problem here is that 99% of players (and presumably voters on this poll) have absolutely no idea just how deep the lore goes. As someone who's studied both TES and LOTR lore, Elder Scrolls lore is vastly more captivating and complex, but like I said, most people won't know this.

Lotr is overrated. Elder scrolls has better lore.

There are college-level courses focusing entirely on The Lord of the Rings and its lore. I'm going with LotR.

TES > Lotr >>> Witcher >>>>>> GoT

I don't know anything about Berserk, but GoT is the lowest when it comes to the complexity and depth of the story.

I voted for GoT since it’s simply more palatable to me. Though if I was more intelligent, I would undoubtably vote LoTR, see as it is indeed great and has the addition of being the original.

The world of LoTR just seems to narrowly described. I can only understand 1 continent, and not even in its entirely. At least in GoT a fair amount is shared about Essos and even more so with Westeros, though it too does have other “mystery lands”.

TLDR: I choose GoT because I’m not educated to respect LoTR as it most likely deserves.
