What we all figured would be some sort of gimmick is actually an incredible system that works behind the scenes even when you think it isn't.. Follow the in game story yes, but make your own story using the nemesis system and your suddenly in a whole new world!! Graphics are what you expect nowadays from a AAA title along with the sound.. The gameplay has the best elements with almost assassins creed style assassination manoeuvres..… Expand

Combat based on other games. Check. An overly hyped new game mechanic. Check. Absurd system requirements. Check. A story from a licensed universe that has little to do with its license. Check. It has all the elements of a truly terrible game in the making. However, I actually found myself loving this game.
   
   If you do not like arkham style fighters with assassin's creed stealth mechanics than yes, this may not be the game for you. But if you do enjoy these game elements, you will surely find that the combat is satisfying, and the enemy chieftain system will make you actually interested in the hordes of enemies that you will inevitably destroy throughout the course of the game. In fact, the nemesis system is not a gimmick, but a well though out mechanic that will likely be "borrowed" for years to come. Your enemies level up with you, so each death feels important. You will begin to remember the names of your enemies and become legitimately nervous as they selectively attack you at the worst possible times, making the game-play constantly engaging. At one point I became frustrated that my enemies were immune to nearly all forms of conventional assault due to how they had leveled. However, this only make victory more sweet when I was able to painstakingly plan and execute an exploitation of their only weakness.
   
   As far as graphics go, people will likely complain that it is not quite as good as Skyrim with 4k textures, ENB mods, etc, but to me this game looks beautiful and runs at a constant 60 fps on the highest settings (no ultra texture pack though.) In an era of poor game optimization, this game runs flawlessly.
   
   The game is not perfect, as the end game content is sorely lacking, and the story could have been more fleshed out. However, I still have nothing but praise for monolith productions, who took legitimate risks making this game (which payed off tremendously) and took the time to make sure that their game was actually working on day one unlike so many competitors in the market today.… Expand

   Gameplay is great, the only problem I have with this game is that the campaign isn't long enough and the assissants of the Black Hand ofGameplay is great, the only problem I have with this game is that the campaign isn't long enough and the assissants of the Black Hand of Sauron are WAYYYY TOO EASYYYYYYY. Not only that, but you don't even get to fight the Black Hand of Sauron!!! You have some finisher moves to take him down, but not a real fight, the rest of the game was great, but they should've made the campaign way longer and the real bosses harder and more of them. The Captains and Warchiefs were WAY harder than the actual bosses which was very disappointing.… Expand

   Ассасинс Крид в мире Мордора с некст лвл боёвкой бэтмена, основной геймплей которого состоит из гринда орков на 24 часа при 100% прохождении сАссасинс Крид в мире Мордора с некст лвл боёвкой бэтмена, основной геймплей которого состоит из гринда орков на 24 часа при 100% прохождении с фулл прокачкой и попыткой выфармливания большинства легендарных рун. Основной же сюжет без доп.активностей часов на 6 - 8.
   
   Из плюсов:
   - Максимально юзабельный и полезный апгрейд персонажа, который по мере прокачки скилов и добывания рун - сражения из унылого бэтмен закликивания превращаются в эпическую вжух вжух мясорубку.
   - Прикольная система Nemesis, которая позволяет взращивать орков как тамагочи, издеваться над "питомцами", а после рубить им головы.
   - Для фанатов киношного «Властелина Колец» сюжет слегка расширяет лор вселенной.
   - Годный порт геймпада.
   
   Из минусов:
   - Основной геймплей и продолжительность игры зависит от гринда орков, что может максимально быстро надоесть, если боевая система и Nemesis уруков не заходит.
   - Система Nemesis полностью раскрывается в самом конце сюжета, когда игра уже успевает поднадоесть и смысла фарма рун нет.
   - Сюжет весьма вторичен и скорее нужен, чтобы отвлечься от фарма орков.
   - Боссфайты просто смех, это не дарк соулс, но всё же можно было придумать что-то более интересное.
   
   8мь любителей мясного фарма из 10ти.
   
   ------------------------
   
   DLS «Lord of the Hunt» охотничье ответвление с Торвином на 2-3 часа при 100% прохождении.
   Из нового:
   - пару механик связанных с дикими животными, ездовые квесты, чумазый скин Талиона и записки чуть расширяющие лор игры.
   
   6ть отрыжек из 10ти.
   
   ------------------------
   
   DLS «The Bright Lord» мини противостояние Келебримбора против Саурона на 2-3 часа при 100% прохождении (без фарма рун).
   
   По сути это слегка прокаченная версия основной игры:
   - изменены некоторые механики
   - уровень орков увеличен
   - битвы стали еще более массовыми
   - создание "армии" стало кое как походить на создание армии - где можно в пылу битвы заарканить 30 болванчиков и они будут драться против другой 30ки (выглядит максимально фаново и эффектно)
   - на удивление неплохой финальный боссфайт, который даже дает какой никакой челлендж (в сравнении с оригинальной игрой).
   
   Из минусов:
   - максимально душные доп.квесты - почти все завязаны на стелсе или на время, хотя и основные особо не похвалишь.
   - слегка нелепая развязка финального боссфайта.

I'm not a fan of how the world was designed, but it is a nice open area to play in. Great finishing moves and the story has been really decent so far.. Got it on a steam sale, very happy I didn't pay full price.… Expand
