Heaven Angel Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 One game to rule them all In Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, you take on the role of Talion, a valiant ranger whose family is slain the night Sauron and his army return to Mordor, moments before his own life is taken. Resurrected by a spirit of vengeance and empowered with Wraith abilities, Talion ventures into Mordor and vows to destroy those who have wronged him. Through the course of Talion's personal vendetta, you will uncover the truth of the spirit that compels you, learn the origins of the Rings of Power and ultimately confront your true nemesis. Fight through Mordor and uncover the truth of the spirit that compels you, discover the origins of the Rings of Power, build your legend and ultimately confront the evil of Sauron in this new chronicle of Middle-earth. While many previous games set in Middle-earth have revolved around the major events or characters depicted in Tolkien's books, Shadow of Mordor offers a new chapter that fits comfortably between The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Players control a lone ranger by the name of Talion as he journeys deep into the heart of Mordor in the days before it transforms into a blasted hellscape. Along the way, developer Monolith is exploring a fascinating next-gen approach to enemies, encounters, and storytelling, one in which every player shapes their own story through the choices they make. The Nemesis System assures that every enemy you fight is a named foe, and if they survive their battle with you, they continue to grow, improve, and act in the world, even as you attempt to do the same with Talion.

Aftrunner Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 I like the sound of it. Not so happy about the combat being Batman like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NitroNeo Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Battle of north left me a sour taste, i didn't like how it had area transitions instead of free roaming to a destination, combat was ok, but i really need a LOTR Game with skyrim like freedom & dragon's dogma like combat, that's a dream game for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Boss Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Looks awesome. Inspired from AC but more awesome. Fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dylanjosh Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I like it. It seems to be taking navigation & combat from Batman / Assassins Creed but that's not a bad thing. I like the follower system thing but I don't think the memory system will amount to much. Seems like a gimmick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
