Seriously fucking underrated

WOW, just wow. I was late to the middle earth games, but I'm glad I've played them at this stage of my life. This game (and shadow of Mordor, to a lesser extent) are what ideal videogames are. Everythings is dynamic, the gameplay, the story (with the nemesis sysyem), just everything. This is a game I glady finished 100% on brutal, I didn't get bored for even one second. I wish I could play this again for the first time.

The main story is sometimes a bit over the place (was my own doing, the way I played region to region), but it ultimately comes together very nicely.

ALSO the multiplayer aspect of this game is what Multiplayer in these kinds of games should be.

So where is the first game is fully rely on the nemesis system, and take advantage of it. Fully exploring from every aspect. In this, it just feels like a gimic for a soules open world game. This feels more story focused, but in a linear way, where the nemesis system doesn't really shines thru.

Being a diehard Lord of the rings fan, and waiting to play this game for a long time after the first one. I grinded this game so much, it had the same amazing combat of the first one and then added way more content. The nemesis system still remains unique and awesome and I will always remember this game.
