I enjoyed the first game, but that final boss QTE was so disappointing.

Hope they can expand the story more and have more gameplay, as fun as it was killing orcs and turning them into your slave it got boring after a while. Flesh out the story more with different missions other than just recruiting your army.

While I did not enjoy the first game, I am intrigued to see what they do with the Nemesis system this time around.

Neat. Never beat the first one but I killed lots of orcs lol.

Looks great. I wish I was better at this type of game.

I rage quit the first one after about three hours :laugh:

I don't have the time nor the patience for those games, even though they look great.

I have started but never finished :

- Arkham Asylum
- Arkham City
- Assassin's Creed
- Infamous

I like the LOTRverse but I'm afraid that if I get SOM I will never finish it.

Plus for each game you have to memorize all the buttons and button cmbos.


So my gaming preferences go like this :

- action/adventure : old school stuff (8/16 bits or classic games mde for current gen)

- sport games : curent gen consoles

Don't care for any of those games/series at all, not really a genre I'm normally into, but I really liked Shadow of Mordor. That said, I didn't finish it as it got a bit repetitive after a while. Really interested to see what they can do in the sequel.

Shadow of Mordor is just way too easy of a game once you unlock all the good moves. Combat is fun for a while but got kinda boring after you've got all the moves and whatnot. It is fun going around feeling like a God though.

I have to admit the statue and cloth map are really cool collector's items.


Unfortunately, the "Mithril Edition" costs $300 USD....

First game was solid but suffered from poor pacing.

Hopefully this game has more enemy types and more varied skills.
