Feb 10, 2021Patenting the nemesis system, despite your game being created base on others' ideas. The industry is built on innovating of existing ideas.

Mar 30, 2020Thanks to the all people who wrote that there were microtransactions in this game.It saved a lot of my time, and I ended up throwing it in my trash can.

Jun 26, 2019If I had read the reviews I would not have purchased this game. No wonder it was $9 at Gamestop unopened in the original case and plastic. It's going right back for a trade. Countless orcs that never stop spawning. Endless orc promotions once they kill you (and they will)

Sep 7, 2018Disappointment. The graphics aren't really an improvement over the first one, even the One X version is underwhelming. The story/gameplay wouldn't be all bad, but the endgame is what really makes me cry. At least the previous one had a decent ending!

Nov 22, 2017Initially a good game, but it turns repetitive and grindy as you get to the end. Endless fortress sieges all identical and with boring mechanics. and if you lose a battle you doubles your grind. Never touching this game again

Nov 2, 2017Yay, lootboxes!
You are paying for those extra profits with user ratings. I think you will find that in the long run, it's not worth it. Just ask Ubisoft. -

Oct 29, 2017Szczerze? Jeśli nie graliście w Shadow of Mordor, to zagrajcie a Shadow of War olejcie. Jeśli graliście w Shadow of Mordor, to chyba lepiej jeszcze raz zaistalować SoM niż kupować tę grę. Jest to w zasadzie to samo co w jedynce, tylko rozwleczone do granic możliwości.

Oct 28, 2017Микротранзакции и деградация геймплея, тьфу
Дрочить капитанов и захват чтобы увидеть настоящую концовку, рили?
Минимум сюжета - максимум дрoчильни, а что еще хуже - это то, что дронильня сингловая -

Oct 27, 2017I really enjoyed the 1st Shadow of Mordor, unfortunately Shadow of War not so much, lot of reused assets, repeated missions, average story, And a god damn microtransactions.
the online feature needs lot of improvements. -

Oct 23, 2017Unfortunately the dev team wanted to implement microtransactions in this game. Stupid decision that really takes away from what could of been a decent game.

Nov 29, 2017Perhaps you might slap your forehead in dismay by the goofy plot or looseness to the source material but what's undeniable is, that Middle-earth: Shadow of War is a lot of fun.

Nov 13, 2017Middle-earth: Shadow of War has high production values and is a fun open-world slashathon, but it's stretched thin. The storyline starts off promising, but all of the interesting characters get pushed aside to make room for nothing of consequence. Hours upon hours are lost to the abyss as players engage in a relentless cycle of gear upgrades and Orc recruits. Assaulting fortresses and conquering territory loses its appeal a bit too quickly. The game is pretty entertaining in short bursts, especially when Talion can make full use of his powerful abilities. Still, the lack of finesse when it comes to combat will make fighting feel a bit bothersome. The Ranger is at his best when he's eliminating the opposition with surgical precision, or making use of hazards in the environment. All in all, this title is worth a look; just don't expect to grow too attached to it.
