Like me, he was also on the prowl but looking to butcher me to gain recognition among his fellow troops.Īlthough I survived this particular assault, when you do succumb to defeat on the battlefield, the rivalry isn’t over, as the Orc that beats you becomes more powerful. Consequently, if you’re anything like me, you’ll then scour the realms of Middle-earth on the warpath to bring him and his followers to their knees. In fact, in the early stages of the game, as I sought-after a warlord to beat to a bloody pulp, I was the victim of an ambush by an Orc commander. Needless to say, exploiting a soldiers’ strengths and weaknesses is extremely satisfying and like Shadow of Mordor, it didn’t take me long to build rivalries among Sauron’s army. Essentially, the Nemesis System operates much the same as it did in Shadow of Mordor with endless possibilities creating a unique gaming experience. Kill an Orc and another will slide into his place, lose to one, and that Orc will gain recognition. As you take control of the protagonist Talion and fight your way through Sauron’s army, each Orc will react to your actions, usually resulting in a violent confrontation which either party can initiate at any time. To summarise, the Nemesis System consists of multiple Uraks all of which have their own persona. While the last decade has seen games of this ilk improve with bigger maps and better graphics, Shadow of Mordor‘s Nemesis System was, in my opinion, the most innovative idea brought to the open-world genre in the last ten years. Although it’s surprising other RPG’s haven’t gone down the route of creating their own type of Nemesis System, pleasingly, it returns in Shadow of War bigger and more enthralling than ever. The first instalment in the Lord of the Rings spinoff was a surprising success back in 2014, with critics and fans heaping praise upon its outstanding combat mechanics and distinctive characters. Much like its predecessor, Shadow of War is a game of gargantuan proportions a vast open-world adventure full of monsters all eager to kill you off. So let’s talk about what makes Middle-earth: Shadow of War tick. Although there are some limitations to this mode in terms of the graphical power needed to move this world around, the developers have added another option which increases the special effects, draw distance and adds more items to the environment but not the resolution. With the world’s most powerful console just released, Xbox One X owners can now experience Middle-earth: Shadow of War in stunning 4K graphics plus HDR (High Dynamic Range) which not only increases the resolution of the game but improves the overall textures which is quite stunning on our TV.
