Not as classified or as commented on
Played a few hours and quite turned off by a few things: - Number one reason by far - not an open world yet it is classified as such. I have no problem with scripted games but I hadn't thought I bought one here. - Save game time is few and far between, not clear when one "quest" finishes as there are overlapping quests. - Can't collect arrows except one group at a time in approximately 5 to a group? You have to shoot those arrows before you can collect another 5 to use? Why can't it be more, why just 5? - Just a tenuous connection to Middle Earth and less to LOTR. The mention of the game title pulled me in but I feel it spit me out when played. Talion is not Aragorn. - (minor) Accidentally discovered health recovery. Hit "E" on a bad guy and there is a weird glow along with a vamperic draw to restore health? Not exactly like any magic I know of in Tolkien's books. There are things that earned it two stars from me: - Stunning graphics. No doubt it's beautiful. - Movement and fps makes character usage fluid. Very responsive. - Super easy to kill individual bad guys, white then red outlines appear. Almost too easy (I'm on normal). Probably didn't play enough for this Nemesis thing to kick in so I can't comment on that.
