You know, there's been a change in gaming. The age of people fussing over sequels not being as good as the first of things can't apply to gaming. Shadow of War is further proof of that fact. It expands on everything that made Shadows of Mordor great, without overwhelming the player with a lot of foolishness. Every quest, whether it be a main quest or side quest, feels important. Gravitas that has the player really feeling like the world is closing in on them. The ork soldiers in this game are both hilarious and frightening. They ambush you whilst you're trying to move from one section of the map to another. They are each very tricky and have a set of weaknesses and strengths that players can use to turn situations to their favor. The recruitment system is great as well, giving the player the choice to utilize a new recruit to fight for them immediately, retreat to their base, or even spy on their current ork war chief and betray him when you attack. It's a really cool concept that provides all manner of treachery happening throughout the game. The music is fantastic as well. Chill-inducing soundtrack. The story it carries, in my opinion, could easily be made into a series for television that would rake in the dough. Combat feels great, with the execution attacks leaving foes with limbs and heads bouncing across the terrain. Other enemies flee in terror at the sight of their captain falling from player's blades. Very satisfying game. If you've played the Shadow of Mordor entry, you owe it to yourself to continue the story. This game is awesome.
