Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor is an exhilarating action RPG set in the dark, foreboding world of Mordor. It introduces the innovative Nemesis System, which creates dynamic, evolving enemies that remember your encounters and react uniquely, making every battle feel personal. As Talion, a ranger bonded with the wraith Celebrimbor, you hunt down Sauron’s forces, using a blend of swordplay and powerful wraith abilities in fast, fluid combat.

The game’s open world is rich with lore and stunning environments, from dark fortresses to haunting landscapes. Packed with side quests and collectibles, Shadow of Mordor encourages exploration and offers plenty to discover. The story, set between The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, draws players deeper into Tolkien’s universe, focusing on revenge.

With its groundbreaking Nemesis System, engaging combat, and captivating story, Shadow of Mordor delivers a thrilling adventure that sets a new standard for open-world action games.

The game is good, has lots of content and missions!

The story line is ok but full of clichè. It has some nice side quests too and you can play quite for a long time!

If you are a fan of the Lord of the Ringsthe game is for you and for my opinion it is one of the better LotR games out there.

  • Easy controls but only if you play with a game pad, mouse and keyboard is not that good
  • Graphics are still awesome
  • Some very nice finisher moves
  • Challanges are endless, mostly the same so very repetitive
  • The story is ok but a little bit cliché
  • I hated the mouse and keyboard controls

One of the best games ever made, the graphics are still fantastic today. The story is simply right, but the gameplay is excellent and generally addictive. The Nemesis system is one of the best systems ever included in a video game, as you grow more attached to and invested in a particular enemy.

Amazing game! I totally enjoyed the time I spend playing it! The story was really interesting and ahead of its time when it came out. The combat system was amazing and entertaining, I didn't feel like it was repetitive.
  • Amazing story
  • Lot's of things to do!
  • The story ended a little bit rushed.
  • the music lacks a bit

The game is very good and with tones of content and missions! It delivers a very good story line and a handful of side quests that will keep you going for a good amount of time! If you are a big fan of the Lord of the Rings, you definitely won't be disappointed!!

Definitely worth buying this masterpiece. I love games that are free-roam after finishing the story mode. Great game, amazing story, I love the combat because you can execute enemies and get a chance that Uruks will run in fear (Requires a rune though probably, which I have)
  • Executing Enemies
  • Open world
  • You get to see Gollum from The Lord of the Rings

A brief and shocking opening scene sets a dark and brutal tone as Talion, a former Ranger of Gondor, is ritually executed along with his family. Talion’s spirit is then bound to an amnesiac elf ghost and returned to Middle-earth for vengeance against Sauron’s forces. It’s a story that doesn’t make total sense for hardcore Tolkien scholars, but it’s well-acted. It makes decent use of Gollum, and there are a couple of memorable new characters - particularly Ratbag the comic-relief uruk, who guides you through the process of infiltrating the enemy army.

My interest in the plot dwindled toward the end, but it does a fair job of explaining why Talion has such sweet supernatural powers with his sword, dagger, and bow. Much like in the Batman: Arkham games, you can choose to stealthily pick off enemies one at a time, or dive head-first into a brawl with dozens of opponents and beat the crap out of them with a smoothly animated series of attacks and counters. Unlike Batman, of course, Mordor’s involve great, gory decapitation and stabbing animations, and outside of the scripted story missions, there are few distinctly separated stealth and combat areas. It’s enticingly freeform.

Acrobatically slaughtering Sauron’s ugly minions feels as easy as it appears to be for Legolas in Peter Jackson’s movies, and it’s more fun to do than to watch. Sword combat feels pretty much just as good here as brawling does in Batman – which is to say it’s amazing. Mordor’s take on building up hit streaks to power up lethal takedowns is a bit more forgiving, in that you’re almost never locked into an animation. If you push the counter button, Talion will drop what he’s doing and counter instantly. It’s extremely responsive. A time-slowing power makes scoring a couple of headshots with the bow easy, whether in stealth or in the heat of battle, though it’s kept in check by ammo constraints and a limited (but upgradable) supply of time-slowing juice. And even though stealth gameplay is pretty basic, it’s great to have the option to thin the herd a bit before they know you’re there.

J'ai eu un peu de mal au début mais une fois qu'on maîtrise le personnage, c'est vraiment prenant ! J'y ai beaucoup joué jusqu'au jour où je suis entré dans cette grotte où il faut être le plus discret possible. Ce n'est pas vraiment mon truc...

Shadow of Mordor is a very worth piece for anyone who enjoys a good story and can invest a lot of hours. It is also very similar to the Arkham series, this time with a different face.

The gameplay can be a lot of suffering for those who hates repetitive combat, when you fight againts a group of Orcs there is a chance of you smashing the whole keyboard not because of the angry feeling but because of the combos that demand a lot of buttons to press. So you should mostly try to be a sneaky assassin since it was far more enjoyable and similar to Assassin's Creed (except for the part when you shadow teleport to your enemies). Plus, the gameplay is basically recycled from the Arkham series (Warner Bros games...).

Killing the Orcs will grant you not just XP points but also mind-control reward which will later in game give you a whole army of Orcs.

Endless amount of side quests is very repetitive so it will make you feel bored fast.

Other than that I recommend you playing with a controller because the game is somewhat much smoother and also better for combos to make.

I have completed the GOTY edition in around 50 hours. And boy it was great. Superb story and lots of fun wielding the sword, shooting arrows and riding Caragors. You cannot go wrong with this game. After the final cut scene I felt the story was a bit too short.

Gameplay is like AC, simple and fun. Story is interesting. GOTY Edition was well worth the investment, because it have all DLC, Graphic is very good, but it takes lot of graphic cards memory. Can't wait to play Shadow of War.

The game is amazing.
I still play it even though its been 3 years.
There are good and bad about the game.
Good in General is that the game simply rocks.
Bad is about some small glitches/bugs and e.t.c which dont really bother me. But if i had to say something bad it would be the Graphics are to Grayish.
Worth a buy but most of all woth a play.

Ich Finde das Spiel macht schon Spaß auch wenn es jetzt nichtmehr das neuste ist.
Wenn jemand etwas sucht um die Zeit zu vertreiben ist es das Geld aufjedenmfall wert und durch die DLC hat man auch neben der normalen story viel zu tun
  • Spaßfactor ist sehr hoch
  • Kein Spiel wo man nach ein paar minuten durch ist
  • Ungewöhnliche Kampfsteuerung

Such an amazing game. After playing it, i can understand how it got such a positive review and game of the year nominations. There are a few things that make it easy to play but it gives you so much freedom to execute each mission.
  • Large map
  • Vast amount of abilities
  • Control
  • Enjoyable story
  • Great graphics
  • At times it becomes impossible to die unless you kill yourself
  • After playing it for quite a few hours, the orc becomes repetitive.

Gets old really fast. The mechanics are nice but that's pretty much all the game has to offer. As soon you get tires oof slaughtering orcs the game is over for you. the story is boring and totally not compelling and the game has as much in terms of an RPg as BF1. You simply watch dialogue and get sent to kill stuff.
