One of the best game of 2010s. The nemesis system makes it so fun and with tons of replayability. Definitely an improvement over shadow of mordor which is another gem
As of now I am quite unfamiliar with the lord of the rings universe hence why the story might not have grabbed me however I do believe the delivery here is not on point.
I truly believe that this game simply does not leave you the time to actually figure anything out, it throws you in an open world telling you all these things, dumping numerous mechanics and characters on you. I felt like I truly did not have the space to appreciate anything I was doing.
The disconnect between me and the game's world has not ceased to grow since my rising disappointment in the initial hours. A certain jankiness is also present that never really ceased to make itself noticed in any aspect of the gameplay be it movement, stealth or combat.
Props deserve to be given to the fun Nemesis system yet everything surrounding it from story to gameplay just failed to make me further interested.
What the movies never told you, but in the chain of events written in the original books.
Plays like Assassin's Creed, but in the realms of LOTR. Lots of action, character development & taking over castles. There are a lot of hours to play here and DLCs contain 2 more characters to take through the realms. You may get bored of Orcs & Urukai but you'll put it down now & pick it up later.
The ring is calling your name. ;-)
Cons - came back to it after I rescued it from Steam, thank you GOG, another restored title.
Must reset your GPU driver profile for this game or you get CTDs on startup or other crashes.
For me it was turning off Crossfire & OpenGL, might work for you, might have another setting misplaced.
Online play never held any interest for me, so I will skip any comment on that.
