First of all, I'm a lotr fan, read a few of the books and of course saw all the Peter Jackson films and others. I played the lotr game on the Ps2 way back and had a lot of fun playing it, but I'm finding Shadow of Mordor kinda meh....for me, it was kinda fun fighting orcs and what not...but it got kinda old and repetitive pretty fast, and going after his army was kinda a waste of time for the most part, you have to hunt them down and kill them, but at the same time a ton of orcs appear out of nowhere and you have to fight them at the same time and most of the time before you can finish off the captain or whomever, it cuts and runs away and escapes or you get killed by the other orcs as you fight him and they get stronger and it's like why bother? Maybe had I'd tried playing it when it came out I might have given it a higher rating, but I'm just not finding myself really caring about the main character, the story is kinda meh, especially by todays standards or even older games like the last of us, which really make you feel like the game characters are real. Shadow of Mordor just doesn't have me invested in the main character and tbh, I probably won't finish the game because I just don't find it that interesting.
