Aperture Gaming Reviews Middle Earth Shadow of War
0Greetings fellow test subjects!
Test Subject 1337 here for Aperture Gaming. They make it, we test it, you play it. Today I am reviewing and giving my first Impression of Middle Earth: Shadow of War. This is the sequel to the hit game Shadow of Mordor. If you have no idea what's going on, I suggest you go back a few videos and look at my Shadow of Mordor Primer.
If you played and loved the first game, get ready because everything you love is back, along with new stuff to love, and everything is bigger and better.
The game has taken on some more RPG elements and has puzzles, revamped mechanics, and something I noticed was how they made an improvement to an issue I saw in the first game. They are even using footage from the first game.
My only nit-pick is how while you have on outfits that change depending on what you have on, in the cut scenes, you look like you have the base armor and weapons on from the very start of the game, but it goes back after the scene is over. Not a deal breaker and I can overlook it.
Some people I saw complained about the ability to use real-world currency to by in-game currency. To that I argue that this game isn't the first, I don't think it will be the last , and nobody is forcing you to do it.
I was only able to get some plying in because I wanted to get this out in a timely manner to everyone. I couldn't cover everything and I hope I didn't give too many or any major spoilers.
I give the game a solid 10 out of 10.
