Customers value the engaging gameplay, compelling story, and innovative Nemesis System in Middle-earth: Shadow of War. Many also appreciate the game's substantial content and the option of a lower price point for an older title. While some found aspects repetitive, concerns were raised regarding the inclusion of in-game purchases. The action, difficulty progression, and open-world environment were also frequently praised.

    If you enjoy grinding for Your lore, it’s there. It’s weird to have a currency system in this game.

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

    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.

    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.
