Fun Game, Little Repetitive

The game came exactly as described, on time, so kudos to the seller for that. The actual game was solid. The graphics are great and the game play is challenging/fun. The story is good, you will enjoy it if you like the Tolkien lore. Unfortunately, it gets a bit repetitive with time. I still have not played it all the way through because many of the missions are similar in nature: run around, stealthily take out Orcs, fight a big-bad Orc, run around and repeat. Worth a purchase if you really liked the last one or are a fan of the genre!

Everything that the first game was and more! More abilities, more fluent combat flows, compelling storyline and holy cow there is so much content!

Sequel syndrome

Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2018

Platform For Display: Xbox OneEdition: Standard Edition

There are plenty of new things to do this time around in Shadow of War. There’s a new leveling system and weapon system. The nemesis system makes a fantastic return. But I found myself micromanaging more than playing. All the information you need to know means you spend more time navigating the menus and level up screens than running around Mordor. The last game had the perfect balance of leveling. This game acts more like an RPG when it is a dark fantasy action adventure. I love RPGs but it feels overdone here.
The story is... off. No spoilers but the rapport and bond Talion and Celebrimbor spent cultivating last game seems lacking here and it shows through the story. Some of the original characters like Shelob are severely altered so LoTR purists will not like that. The story overall left me feeling like WB is just done. It feels like made this sequel out of obligation and because the first was such a hit but it definitely lacks the charm of the original. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still worth playing and is a lot of fun. I’m just a gaming snob and a LoTR geek. The Silmarillion is one of my favorite books haha. I’d pay between $20-$40 for it. Still worth the buy.

Great game if was for my console

I bought this for my xbox one, waited for about two weeks for it to get to me. To my surprise after opening it, that I was mailed a copy of the game but for PlayStation 4. Luckily, my roommate has a PlayStation so I was able to use it. Still would've been nice to get it for Xbone.

Great game though, love it and is way longer than the first installment.

Really do enjoy the combat architecture

Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2018

Platform For Display: Xbox OneEdition: Standard EditionVerified Purchase

Enjoyable, becomes repetitive and overly complex in the domination stages as the game progresses. Really do enjoy the combat architecture, again would be more enjoyable if it didn't remain so repetitive. Overall a good game, wished for DLC after completing the first installment Shadow of Mordor. At the current price point and anything below, I feel it's very worth of your time.
