This game is great fun for about 6 hours, then you realize it's the exact same thing over and over.

This game did not disappoint at all ! If you play shadow of Mordor, you’ll definitely love this one too. Great story and after you beat the game you can still have fun offline or online in vendetta missions or Conquer fortresses.

I really liked the original game so I wanted to try this out too. I play online here and there, but prefer one-Player games like these.

Very much like the Arkham Asylum games. Full of lore and an immersive world. The vendetta system is fantastic, and after 20hrs of gameplay, I still dont feel like I'm running into carbon copy orc captains. The building an army feature is a lot of fun. Overall an amazing game.

Game is alright, if you enjoyed the first one you'll like this, but to be honest it kind of lacks anything that makes it..."wow".

In all honesty I have just started it, but upon beating the first one I can honestly say this feels like a MORE THAN worthy sequel. I would definitely recommend. This price is absolutely KILLER through Best Buy as well. 10/10 recommended.
