Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor

[Wismar]

What do you guys think? I'm not that big of a fan when it comes to LOTR but this looks pretty good. Looks almost like AC but without the shit.

The gameplay and nemesis system look good, so I'll probably get it.

Looks like an Lord of the Rings version of AC which sounds cool. However, I don't understand the whole powers system (while it is pretty interesting). It just doesn't fit with the world of Middle Earth. The problem I have with stuff like this is that if Gandalf or the highest Elves could not have such powers, how can a man? This would have been the dude to send into Mordor with Frodo to destroy the ring.

Yes. I hope they stick with the in depth lore.

This does look good though like kind of a AC rip off, but in a good way, with new features (the wraith thingy etc). Will be fun to play I bet but I find it a bit weird that one "normal" Gondorian Ranger posesses such power. I hope we'll get some good explanation for that (maybe he is one of the Istari like Gandalf, send back to Arda by the Valar to fullfill a special mission or so  ).

Looks damn good.

Well here's hoping that it won't be as pathetically easy as the AC games.

and that they won't make sequels even when the main character has died.

If it does 2015 will be one bad ass year for gaming along with Kingdom Come and whatnot.

I think people need to examine the source material a little better. Magic and the like has always existed within the setting, albeit in limited fashion. The Silmarillion and Unfinished Tales are a good starting point for that.

EDIT; The team itself includes some fairly talented individuals as well. Quoting this from Wikipedia;

In August 2013, an artist leaked that Monolith Productions was working on a new triple-A title, separate from Guardians of Middle-earth.[5] On 12 November 2013, it was announced that this game was Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor.[6] The Monolith team is working with Middle-earth Enterprises, Peter Jackson and the artists at the Weta Workshop to make sure that the settings, characters and story align with the canon of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit.[1] The game is being written by Christian Cantamessa, who was a lead-writer and lead-designer on Rockstar San Diego's Red Dead Redemption.[2]
