Forthog was created in reminiscence of Mike ‘Forthog’ Forgey, who was government producer on the sport earlier than he handed away in 2016. The video saying his inclusion reveals Forthog intervening to save lots of Talion from an unsightly destiny on the finish of an orcish axe.

The video ends with a message from Monolith that reads “Mike ‘Forthog’ Forgey was our Executive Producer and great friend here at Monolith.
