Combat can be fun but the game gets really samey really quickly.

It's ok. A decent AC rip-off that actually managed to do better than the original in terms of gameplay. Too bad everything else sucks. The nemesis system sounds rad at first, but it gets borings quickly.

It gets repetitive pretty quick. I enjoyed the fighting, and I tried to really delve into the lore, but almost every area of the game world looked like every other area, and many enemies could only be defeated using gimmicks. Also, this concept of an immortal main character, who would die and come back... sorta bothered me. I liked the nemesis system a lot. Would love to see that same concept applied to another video game, something not LotR specific.

Conceptually it's cool to have a game where orc hordes are a notable factor but it's just... what do you even do with that other than slightly better Arkham combat, run away, or rely on extremely contextual traps? This game is an amalgamation of various AAA tropes that while polished in execution is extremely boring in terms of what it's offering mechanically. The plot is also a bland nothingburger, taking away the charm of Tolkien and replacing it with a Hollywood idea of "cool and edgy."

Tam "Lan galiba güzelleşiyor." dediğim anda zart diye berbat ötesi bir QTE boss savaşı ile bitti oyun. Elinde Orta Dünya gibi bir evren varken bu kadar kıytırık bir intikam öyküsü yazmak? Bilemiyorum... Yan görev sosu verilmiş ana görevler ile uğraşıyoruz oyun boyunca. Yapımcıların ballandıra ballandıra anlattığı Nemesis sistemi de anca sonlara doğru kendini ortaya koyuyor. 2.yarısında keyifli hâle gelen mekanikleri sayesinde rezalet sınıfından kendini kurtar

nemesis novelty wore off quick and never amazed. them killing me just felt cheap most of the time cuz the combat wasnt good enough. and needing captain bodyguards for warchiefs got tedious and annoying. intel was cool but too tedious to get. and they barely remembered things from fights like it shoulda been more lol. combat got better once more OP etc and stealth stayed meh. story cool but confusing and not set up. like you kinda rush into it. glad i had goty runes etc. loved seeing ring maker

I enjoyed the first few hours quite a lot. It's fun how the world opens up, you get more cool abilities and there are more things to do. However, it then quickly becomes repetitive and doesn't have any redeeming factors. I was often very frustrated, not because of the difficulty, but because of things not working out I'd expect or want them to. The story/writing is pretty terrible and it tries to cram every line uttered in the LotR films in here, which was very jarring. Not great.

I find the look of the world exceedingly ugly and navigating it to be a chore. The climbing is janky as hell, and the combat is fun but it's just less-responsive Arkham fighting. The "story" framework might as well not even be there with how little it matters. The nemesis system is a great idea and shows real potential, but I don't think they quite pulled it off this time around.

The game play is fun but it's such a bummer to play. It makes me sad.

Shadow of Mordor is what I have been missing from Assassin's Creed for about five years now. The Nemesis system has breathed new life into the now rote and lifeless checklist-heavy, quasi-Arkahm, quasi-stealth "AAA" experience. The very large "however" is that the story is a meandering and, at times, painful misunderstanding if not downright rejection of Tolkien. The story I wrote with the Uruks was always more satisfying than anything scripted.

Totally inexplicable to me how this became popular. Well, that's a lie - anything with a big marketing budget is almost guaranteed to be popular.

The way this game continued to give the player more and more things to do, the way it improved and widened the gameplay strategies, is some of the best stuff I've seen a game do in years. The gameplay itself is fantastic, drawing on Assassin's Creed and Arkham Asylum, but that Nemesis chess board is what makes it unique. The story is ass, but the game is fun as hell.

Story and character are lost in the mire with this one. however Shadow of Mordor is a wonderfully crafted (if a bit buggy) open world action game. It'll satisfy the Assassin's Creed and Arkham fans in us all. Not to mention scratching that Lord of the Rings itch at the same time.

Most entertaining brawler based in the LOTR's universe.

A visually impressive game with some of the most fluid combat mechanics in recent gaming history. The Nemesis system is also an extremely interesting gameplay mechanic that serves to give the game a unique element found nowhere else. Unfortunately, a weak story and repetitive gameplay prevent it from being an all-time great.

A great fighting system that allows you to fight groups of thirty and feel like it actually is happening in a semi-realistic manner. The boss system and having enemies and internal feuds are amazing as well.
15 Jan 2018
The Nemesis system rocks, the combat was ripped right from the Arkham games but it was fun.
12 Jan 2018
[PS4] Still haven't finished this one. The fact that enemy units get tougher each time you die is both ingenious and infuriating. Might restart it, as the the lore is interesting presented despite the liberties taken with the source material.
