Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, the perfect adaptation?

The story of this game takes place between the events of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, and forces you to carry out your revenge and impose your will on Mordor. The game begins on the night of Sauron’s return to Mordor, as his army coldly executes those at the Black Gate.

Aside from its gameplay, which is halfway between that of Batman Arkham, notably for its combat system, and that of Assassin’s Creed, with climbing in its sights, it is the Nemesis system that is the game’s most distinctive feature: each enemy has a unique face, its own personality, its strengths and weaknesses.

Depending on your style of play, your confrontations will give rise to specific sworn enemies. Find the best strategy to defeat each of your opponents, infiltrate their ranks and dominate them in a world that remembers your every action and decision.
