Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

I do think that-

And Shadow of Mordor, that was a good one in that style

... yeah.

I do think that this game does wonders, though, for...

A lot about Gondor and Rohan.

What you don't get a ton of is where the hell did Mordor come from and why is it the way that it is? You get a little bit of that if you play through the Shadow of Mordor game.

Phenomenal games, by the

way.

Oh, yeah.

Could

you imagine if Fallen Order had had the mechanics of Shadow of Mordor? I am now, holy crap.

Right, right.

Well, and one that's fas- And we're getting a little far afield, but I just have to drop this little, this little tidbit because I love it.

Um, there was the, uh, uh, about 10 years ago, the Shadow of Mordor games, um-

Mm-hmm

... for PlayStation and Xbox where it was a Lord of the Rings game where it had the Nemesis System.

A lot of people have.

Like, back with Shadow of Mordor, Shadow of War, and they brought out the Nemesis system.

Like, that was something they were trying to do and work on a new system.

There's a lot of shite that they still have it all locked up and it hasn't gone out.

Yeah, I

mean, I guess if we were talking about One Rings, because I've played Shadow of War and Shadow of Mordor.

Because you work with the spirit

of...

Because he is a shapeshifter.

I

really like Shadow of War and Shadow of Mordor.

I love that game so much.

So, you know, this is me, literally my introduction to this series.

It felt like they wanted you to experience the cinematic sword fights without your uh you know like the the the cinematic uh like the cut scenes where you know hit a hit b blah blah blah you know like no this felt like when you parried you hit that parry at the perfect time when you uh you can do this kind of like this kind of like it's essentially a pair you kind of phase and then you move and then you can you can strike it was it was giving me kind of the like uh shadow of war or shadow of mordor i don't uh i don't know if you guys have played that so um i see david is here what's up welcome to the stream it kind of gave those vibes a little bit.

I loved like the finishers that, uh, that was, that was fantastic.

Like I really, really enjoyed some of the finishing moves, but, and I will say this and I'm going to plug them again.

That's what I was going to be doing tonight.

That or Shadow of Mordor, which I'm going to play until the early hours of the morning tonight.

Sounds fun.

You know a game that I just recently got into in the very limited free time I currently have? What? Shockingly enough, World of Warplanes, the game that everyone considers dead.

So if you're picking any of them up, just remember, don't be a baby.

One of the main selling points of 2014's Middle Earth, Shadow of Mordor is its revolutionary nemesis system.

It's also one of the most ingenious ways a dev has come up with an entire inbuilt game system almost solely meant to roast you.

The concept is simple.

They'll become stronger, scarier, and legendary among their peers.

They were the one that finally bested you.

But in Shadow of Mordor, the player character, Talion, has merged with an elven wraith named Celebrimbor.

This means you can resurrect after each death and go back and seek revenge against your slayer.

again more DC shit like there's I'm trying to think yeah but a Wonder Woman game from

Monolith was going to be sick um like they did the Shadow of Warren ship Shadow of Mordor like mentioned doing a Wonder Woman like fuck me dead They got shut down because of Warner Brothers mismanagement.

They could have just sold them off.

They'd still be active.
