    Purchased Shadow of War after playing through all of Shadow of Mordor. There have been some changes, but still love the follow up. I have about 30 hours in so far and lots of missions and fun. You do not need to do the micro purchases in the game to play it (and I don't). It can be a bit repetitive with the hack and slash, but enemies level up when you don't finish them off and makes game fun to have them taunt you. If you like Lord of the Rings or the Hobbit, RPG or just a great story and graphics, then this is your game.

    The second in the Middle-earth series I have played and it was just as fulfilling as the last and another series I finished in the last 2 years. I love the fighting sequences and how you level up. And the comments from the Orcs will leave you in tears, they are so funny. And if you lose a battle, you better watch out, these guys come back stronger than ever. Pay close attention to the strengths and weaknesses of the Orcs you do battle against. May the force errrr......Godspeed!

    Great continuation of the SoM series. I feel the improvements made really helped the series. Keep in mind, this does take liberties with the Lord of the Rings storyline and die hard fans might have an issue with that.
