Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

Lord of the Rings. I will never forget this world. I watched the films many times, read The Hobbit, and played almost all the games in this series. And so, in November 2013, the world received Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor. Personally, I just pissed myself with boiling water. The previous games are quite old and familiar, but here is something new, something interesting and at the same time intersects with the plot of the original films. But after a couple of hours spent in the game, the “WOW” effect wore off and Golum crawled out. Joke. The shortcomings came out. And I will write about this below.

Story. There will be no spoilers here. Feel free to read. He's cool, interesting, exciting, and his presentation is simply beautiful. We are told about the difficult fate of Talion, the commande… Read full

Pros:

+ Laconic, but quite vivid plot.

+ The gameplay, in short, is a mixture of Assassin's creed + Batman Arkham.

+ Controls are convenient and obedient. I played on an xbox 360 gamepad - the flight was excellent.

+ The combat system borrows elements rather from "Batman", but is still different and the enemies do not stand still, but attack you so that you barely have time to dodge and counterattack, and you also have to have time and just hit...

+ Excellent solution to the problem of death: you are immortal and are resurrected near the nearest tower.

+ By the way, capturing towers does not blow your mind, like in Assassin's creed and Far Cry.

+ Stealth mode is present and helps a lot. You have at your disposal a bow from which time slows down when fired, and it causes significant damage, especi… Read full

I hadn’t heard anything about Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor until a couple of days ago when I came across it while looking for information about whether The lord of the rings: battle for Middle-earthwill be re-released } , unfortunately I didn’t find any information, but I came across a video about the Shadow of Mordor.

I started playing the game, in general I liked the game, especially fans of Assassin's Creedwill like the game, since the ghost mode is similar to eagle vision, as well as free movement (whether it is a wall or a rock).

As for the game itself, let's start with the storyline, which is a bit short for me, but interesting; the controls have also not been improved a little, but not as crude as in Assassin's Creed: Unity (there were no such negative impressions in the previous … Read full

Shadow of Mordoris probably one of the best Lord of the Rings games. Even if we put aside the setting, the game is still an excellent RPG. Here you have a stealth system, leveling up, and even the opportunity to ride a wild animal. At the same time, the world of "The Lord of the Rings" makes this game much more attractive for both fans and fans of the genre: a seriously written world, many references and an excellent plot.

However, even the interesting storyline could not make me go through only the main quests - I completed all the additional tasks and even collected various herbs for trials. I killed orc leaders to gain experience and just like that. By the way, these same leaders are unique, starting with their name and ending with characteristics like “Afraid of fire” or “Invulnerable t… Read full

This is one of the few games with normal graphics and combat. The game naturally hooked me with the location itself. Probably every Tolkienist would like to see Mordor with his own eyes. And now about the game itself. An interesting but not very suitable combat weapon. (Pointing the bow). Large skill tree. If you have straight arms, then you will become a machine for rolling up orcs in a bank. The plot is perfect for such a game. The map is quite small. The whole point of the game is to get fun from the constant koaschik srszhentf3s orcs.
