one of the few action games I played and
... loved. It was a blast killing those orcs! In my opinion: a little bit better than second game.

Giant Bomb
5/5 stars
This perfectly competent open-world game gets a heck of a lot more interesting when it throws an endless host of savage, dynamic AI enemies into the mix.

I love the nemesis system
wish more games could use the nemesis system. We just have to wait on the patent to expire I guess

Still very good game in 2022
Because of the new serie ring s ogf power i wanted an update on the history and a good slaughter of orcs. I was realy suprise that i did not hear of this game earlier since its very good. But after the 15 hours of gameplay there is not a lot of different gameplay but u are one the sick people who want to finish all the achievement. My boy this is a good game. And it is not too long so u don't need to invest too much time. And there is a lot of lore if u want to know more about the history but it is not mandatory if u juste want to kill war chief. I recommand this game for sure

Nice visuals, awful k+m control
The intro looks really good, visual effects, music are all very high quality I got it as an action game to have some fun once in a while killing monsters, but... Could not play more than one hour, I do not have a controller, and keyboard+mouse control in this game was awful I tried several kb combinations, they play one worse than the previous, unfortunately
