I got this on a steeply discounted sale price (less than $10) so at that price point I don't think this is a bad game at all.

Not the biggest fan of game stories like this, somewhat like lord of the rings, but I enjoyed the gameplay style. Refer to youtube clips for the gameplay.

The 1st one was good but the 2nd one was better. Improved combat and the gem system added a bit of variety to the game.

This game starts off strong but slowly degrades into a lesser game then its predecessor. Fun for awhile but only the most dedicated will see the ending.

Every one of my reviews for other products are always 5-star. I hate to not follow that with this game and I really REALLY wanted to like it more than I do. I've not finished the game yet but I must admit, a gamer of 35+ years now (since the original Wizardry on PC), this game struck me as overly complicated. I'm really good at picking up game mechanics but this one seemed like they added stuff just to make it more complicated, maybe with the mindset that the more stuff they cram into it the more people will like it. No me. I'll try to finish it but right now I'm not really feeling it.

This game is a nice sequel to the first game. They have improved on multiple mechanics that make the game stand out above the rest.

The lord of the ring universe is always full of action. The diversity in the gameplay really makes the game's combat tons of fun.

As Fun as the original times 50! I can play for hours. Even though the quests seem redundant, they're always fun and rewarding.

Lots of improvements from the first game. There's a lot of sidequests to do, and a tons of abilities to unlock. The open-world aspect has been changed to a number of large set pieces instead. While they're all intricate, they lack the sense of scope and scale of the original. And despite the world being filled to the brim with objectives, it gets a little repetitive quickly. It doesn't help that the story is a confusing mess. Play this one just for the satisfying action.
