ITT: Games that fucking shocked you
Initial Reveal:
>edgy protagonist
>lorerape story
>Batman with swords
Release:
>Nemesis System is actually a novel concept and fucking fun to play around with
>actually getting involved in promoting your retardo orcs to warchief and having them kill your enemies and shit and its legitimately fun
>>
It was all right for a playthrough.

Still not worth full price though.

>Nemesis System is actually a novel concept and fucking fun to play around with

how? It requires that you die in order to actually get a nemesis. And I never died.

It's a 6.5-7/10 game

don't forget its someone's daughter

should I get this game? I have about $13 on my wallet and this game is about $10 or so
>>
>>321794198
>It requires that you die in order to actually get a nemesis. And I never died.

this. The game was way too easy. And no uruks ever came back. I beat the entire game without even getting a nemesis.
>>
>>321793695
I almost never play any game twice.

I just beat this for a second time last week. The Nemesis system makes it perfectly enjoyable to play through over and over.

>such a dipshit that he starts a sentence with a preposition
>tries to convince people on an anonymous image board that he never died
>follows this up by giving it a rating, implying that dying in a video game makes it a better game
You never beat it and quit 1/4 of the way through, don't lie.
>>
>>321793695
The nemesis system is objectively pretty cool but the rest of the game sucks so much cock that it ruins it.
For instance, if you have even a slight amount of aptitude for vidya you're going to kill your nemesis every single time by chopping off their heads or blowing up their heads. The only way they come back stronger is if you kill them in a retarded fashion like fire or knocking them off a cliff.
Plus that story...that horrible forced piece of shit story. They could have saved money by making this game about an orc, removed all the cut scenes, and taken it out of the tolkien universe because that shit is played out and they obviously didn't give a single fuck about it in the first place.
Then you'd have had a cheaper game that people would actually enjoy instead of this shit festival with one good feature.

Why do people play games on easy and bitch about it being too easy
>>
>>321794474
nvm its $17
>>
>>321794638

the game isn't even that hard.

And yeah I did beat it. I think I died to that boss that looked like the dudes from the witcher 3, but that's it.

As long as you use a finisher, you'll always cut their heads off. And if you cut their heads off, they don't come back. Sorry bud but the game is just okay. It's not exemplary or anything.
>>
>>321794717
The game has no difficulty settings.

Why do people comment about games without having played them?

I loved this game and the combat is extremely satisfying my only gripe with is that the story was complete utter shit.
>>
>>321794796
I had orcs come back with their head roped back on. It takes a while, but they do if you play long enough.
>>
>>321794796
I don't believe you. The game is easy but there's some ridiculous shit in the game to kill you the first time you see it like the spear chuckers and the big cats. Pretty sure you'd have to take a couple deaths to those through your playthrough.

I decided to give this a chance and I'm really enjoying myself. The customization is nuts too, so many layers. I like the thrusters, wall running, boosting, specialists.
>>
>>321794717
Maybe you should actually play this game?

Even on the hardest difficulty the combat is easymode. I only died once or twice on the hardest difficulty mode, both to a troll instakill move.
>>
>>321794796
Yours such full of shit. Most of them are immune to finishers.
Gg dumb ass
>>
>>321794904

This review sums it up. Pack it in boys.
>>
>>321793695
They made the snorefest Bamham combat actually fun with all the killing options and executions.
It's also really pretty to look at.

A solid 8/10 game.

>points out the stupidity of getting upset by comments on an anonymous imageboard
>does so in the same post

I mean. You literally need to be killed by your nemesis in order to really experience how cool it is. So yes in this case, you DO need to die to fully experience the game.

>>321795048

You can finish any of them once you get their health low enough. Also it's really easy to tell you're samefagging your angry replies.

A 7/10 is not a bad score. Relax bro.

>>321794963
I got downed a few times but never died. The enemies are brain dead so it's easy to get away if you're in trouble.

I didn't start having fun until I turned off all of the button prompts. Then it was pretty cool. I finished the game with all of the stuff found. And the DLC is pretty fun.
>>
>>321793695
Man I remember the Nemesis System for this game getting the living shit shilled out of it.

Seriously each time you look up shit it's always "OUR GAME MECHANIC IS SUPER COOL YOU GUYS"
>>
>>321795048
>Most of them are immune to finishers.
lol no. at most like 5% are but they're usually not immune to getting a ghost fist in the face which also guarantees a kill.
>>321795369
I'd say your experience is uncommon because you're particularly good at this game then. I'm decent at it and while I agree the game is a breeze 99% of the time, sometimes I'd get hit by a spear or run into a dead end and get raped, particularly with the dlc that added overpowered hunters and shit.

I had a rune combo that gave me like 3 second chances when I got downed. I eventually stopped using it but at that point I was overpowered and never died. The teleportation thing is pretty ridiculously op. So are the explosive flaming arrow spam you can do.
>>
Recommend this? I've seen all of the LOTR movies and didn't particularly enjoy them. I didn't pay enough attention, I think.
>>
>>321795372
It is super cool.
I think arguing from your position means you either don't understand the system or you are being deliberately contrarian.
Throwing a guy off a cliff and having him come back to kill you with a metal plate in his skull and screaming "THROW ME OFF A CLIFF WILL YA HUMIE" or whatever the fuck they say......it's cool subjectively and it's cool from a technical standpoint which is objectively cool.
>>
>>321795534
the ones that are immune to finishers usually fall to their knees. And then you have to finish them with a button prompt that, you guessed it, cuts off their heads.

OP is a buttangry retard that thinks I haven't played the game but yeah, I have.
>>
>>321795707
You probably know more about LOTR than the guys and gals who wrote this game anon. They shit on the lore and the game is better for it imo.
>>
HELLO /v/, I'M HERE TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR THE NEMESIS SYSTEM, HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT IT?
>>
>>321795707
Yeah, you're the intended audience for this game.
>>
>>321794638
No first word in any sentence in that post is a preposition. I'm sure you're excited to show us what you've learned in 10th grade English this year but try to be less retarded in the future.
>>
>>321794198
>It requires that you die in order to actually get a nemesis.
No it doesn't. It just requires you to kill an orc leader at least twice. They keep coming back more and more pissed off, and more and more up beaten up.
>>
>>321795710
>you either don't understand the system or you are being deliberately contrarian

Neither, I was just kind of peeved at how literally the only thing about they marketed is the Nemesis System and wouldn't shut up about it.

Their money dick has been stroked to completion anon. They've moved on.
>>321796127
Well it's really all the game has going for it that's unique.
The combat is from Batman. The parkour is from ASS Creed. The story is shit. Obviously the only thing people are going to discuss is the interesting aspect in an otherwise bland as a bowl of oatmeal AAA release.
