It is a cool game. Mechanics of old Assassin's Creed with Batman series. If you think this as a Orc slashing game, it is really good. Nemesis system is nice. You can be the Lord of Mordor if you try. But it has flaws.

Story and characters sucks. I don't even remember if I finished it or not. But I know final boss sucks. Talion sucks. Very plain character. The environment sucks a bit. I mean, it is Mordor. I understand that you can't have a diverse map. BUT, what you can do is investing in lore. I was expecting even darker and scarier places. Stories of the past.

It is not a game you would play for the story. It didn't fulfil my hunger for Middle-Earth either. What you can do is, killing Orcs. Lots of Orcs. There were not a diversity of enemies anyway.

So yeah, you can kill orcs in style. Or you can kill orcs with stealth. Or, you can make orcs kill other orcs by branding them. Did I mention that you can kill orcs?
