SoM/SoW was always a great game, it was just a god awful adaptation. The Nemesis system to this day is still one of the best entirely "new" gaming inventions of the modern era and I'm hoping it gets used more elsewhere.
It also introduced Celebrimbor to people beyond just book nerds, so this show fucking him up will piss more people off than they think.
I didn't think the first one contradicted the established lore too much (though I'm not a superfan, so I'm sure I missed some stuff), outside the setup for the game, and it was pretty explicitly an alternate timeline from what I recall. The second game contradicted established lore pretty heavily though.
I don't think the first did much, but it was also so insignificant in the grand scheme that it would be hard for it to anyway. No idea about the DLC, as I never got around to it.
The second did to absurd levels, but it also never tried to act like it was more than it was. A power fantasy wearing LotR skin.
