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, especially if you shoot at explosive barrels or fires.
+ The game is reminiscent of endlessly swinging a sword, but that’s what I like about this game
+ The first thing that surprised me is that when you die from some Uruk commander, he becomes stronger, and it’s even more difficult for you to defeat him the next time once. And also there is a system of ranks among the Uruks, and someone can become a commander, someone can become an assistant commander, fight with each other for a more honorable place.
+ Animals. There are only a couple of them, but they can really help if you saddle them or lure a whole detachment of the same caragors. Some of the leaders may get scared and run away.
+ A little about leaders, each usually has weaknesses or strengths. To find out more about this you need to interrogate special uruks who know the information (worms). Thus, for example, you can kill a leader with just one sneak attack.
+ When the game starts to get boring with its endless hacking, it presents us with a new strategy and a slightly different way of fighting. Further minor spoilers:
+ Excellent additions, although short, but cool
+ Screenshot mode, which quite flexibly helps you choose the right angle, filter, vignette, substitute the game logo, etc.
+ Add. I completed almost all of the missions. They are of several types, but all in total they are monotonous. You can practice with them, and for completing them you will be given special useful perks. Like the endless possibility of executing for a while and so on.
+ Bossfights are normal. The last one in terms of the main plot was really difficult, especially when the fps drops =)
Cons:
- The graphics seem to be good, it’s a pity that my computer didn’t handle it...
- There are only uruki around, yes people - no diversity. There are few animals...
9/10 rings
The game really deserves to be played, especially for fans of the Batman series and just the slasher genre.
