Quoted from DanQverymuch:How about: No, LOTR is neither the greatest nor truly the greatest. I still say those mean the same thing and that the "truly" meant nothing
I'm not a grammar instructor or anything but I do speak English. 
To me, there is a slight difference to the questions. The "truly" added makes me think the OP is placing emphasis on the game's reputation rather than his personal opinion. If that was his intent, then it was successful (at least with me).
I think the question stated either way would get similar responses.
