A Huge Step Back-Great Optimization(Pro)
Pros: -Combat improved; better movement, better moves, better everything. -Graphics; outstanding like its predecessor. But tones better. -Map; colossal, you can explore a shit tone more than the first and more regions. -No annoying stuff; say pick up arrows, now they do it automatically. -Army making; more context in exhibits. -More enemies; yay. Wiverns… -More weapons; yay. -More story; yay. More in exhibits. -More difficulties; Finally. -Dragon Riders Of Mordor. Cons: Before I begin with them, I am aware that this has little to nothing to do with JRRT world, nonetheless they are annoying to say the least; -Exhibit A; Shelob’s sexualization; yup, a spider, don’t get me wrong it is eye candy and all, but you know… it is a f*cking spider. In the lore in the books, in everything. Great for horny teens, I guess. I don’t mind it! -Exhibit B; Sauron. Jr; yup, you play as Sauron. Jr, in some odd way, you forge a ring, build your own army etc. Boring. why? It takes all the charm of the first one, in the first one you infiltrated the army and made them kill each other. This? It is a disgrace. A joke. -Exhibit C; made up story and origins, don’t have any problem with it just find it really bothersome, and you get the usual good/bad ending. Force unleashed anyone? Web of Shadows? Unoriginal af. -Exhibit D; Grind, like the last one. Gear, etc. Just what I want to do! -Exhibit E; woke allegations, I personally don’t have any problem playing as a black dude or and elf chick. I find these allegations absurd; I just leave it here just in case. -Exhibit F; Orcs, trolls, so on and forth, you can control them etc. I want to kill them not be some Sauron knock off overlord and conquer boring castles and all that. It is cool until you reach the ‘build your army’ phase. Count me out. -Exhibit G; you are so fucking limited is stupid, you can only equip x number of skills instead and like it would be logical; All. Conclusion; cool, fun game and a JRRT fanfic, is it worth? yes, it is.
