- Hi Guys, here it is! A detailed explanation of the main events in Shadow of Mordor. This video pretty much contains everything that you need in preparation for Shadow of War set for release on 10th October. Hope you find it useful and informative.
Who's here because shadow of war is free on ps plus?
Me LMAO. I had shadow of mordor on my 360 but I never finished it before I gave it away
I actually bought it ages ago but never got around go playing. Saw War on Ps Plus and got annoyed. Haha. Figured I should play it. Absolutely loving it so far.
Me
I am, I thought I played the same game before, but it was the first game I payed, I was like where the tutorial? But remembered enough to play the game
Damn I missed it lol just bought it today had to pay the full 50
5 years later, hugely helpful -- finally starting the sequel! Thank you!
Glad you found it helpful, enjoy Shadow of War!
How has this only got as many views as it has? Much more informative than the other videos I saw. Good job!
Graham Woods Thanks
Yeah it was the information that I have been looking for
yup, video i just watched never even mentioned celebrimbor stealing the one ring and using its power as well as the death of his family
Its just a word for word read of the Wikipedia page lol
Played the game when it was released and thoroughly enjoyed it. Unfortunately it's been years since I've had the chance to replay it and simply dont have the time to just to be ready to play Shadow of War. But after this incredibly well put together summary I remember everything kind of like Celembrimbor getting his memories back Haha. Now I'm ready to place the second game. Thanks a bunch!
Perfection. I needed my memory refreshed and this did the trick.
Awesome work ! Thank you very much for this summary !
Thanks, glad it could help
Your story summaries are the best and most informative on RUclips period.
Wow, thanks appreciate the support 👍😊
This video was awesome. Much better than the other videos I watched. I subscribed
thanks N7Kate! really great video and you have pleasant voice. I started playing this bc of a gamepass quest on my series s and i'm hooked!
Thanks 😁 glad you found it helpful, enjoy the game
Shadow of War is on sale on steam and Shadow of Mordor isn't and I've never played either...
Oh comon, this is one fucking robbery and people dont even know. Its word by word from wikipedia comon. Someone did a dirty work for you and you dont even mention it. Disgusting
6 years later and still useful !!!
Nice explanation :) now i can play shadow of war
Thanks a bunch for this video. I got both games on my PS5, btu just can not play the first one, due to SEVERE (talking 200+ms) input lag, that makes timing parries and so on damn near imporssible for me (I have generally rather long reaction times, so any input lag makes my experience generally magnitudes worse. the second game luckiely does not have the same issue.
Oh wow that is such ashame for you as Shadow of Mordor is a really good game. I'm glad my recap video could at least help to fill in the gaps before playing the sequel
Clean, clear, perfect...
Thank you !
Literally clicked Like one second before you talked about it if we found this informative
Heck, it'd be nice if you had two Like buttons 😀
Alright! your video was a great choice for me to watch to prepare me for Shadow of War. Had this game for years but never played it. Thank you! your video was very informative and now I'm caught up! Thank you so much! new subscriber
Your welcome, glad the video could help prepare you. Enjoy Shadow of War! Thanks for subscribing 😁
Thank you so much great video!
Your welcome :)
I have no idea why I've been sleeping on these games for the past 10 years.. they're fucking amazing. I'm forced to play them on my PC though because as of now they're is no 60fps patch for the series X but if there was these games would blow up again.
Both the Mordor games are great. Though I do think I enjoyed the first one the most. The nemesis system was fantastic. There's something special about discovering an older game for the first time and getting to play it through 😁
AWSOME fucking video! Subscribed 👍🏽
Thanks on both counts 😊
Way better than the other videos I watched thank you!
Thanks 😁 glad you found it helpful
Thanks, about to finally get stuck into Shadow of War and had forgotten pretty much every bit of the the first one's story since 2014.
Glad i could help, enjoy Shadow of War
Nice video I wanted to play shadow of war but didnt play this one so It helped me a lot to understand the world!
That's great! Glad you found out helpful, enjoy Shadow of War 😁
6 years later, very useful, thank you!
I'm really pleased that even 6 years later people are still finding and watching this video. Glad you found it useful
This was brilliantly done - thank you for your efforts! Now to enjoy Shadow of War.
Awesome work 😍 Liked and Subscribed
Thanks 😁 appreciate it 👍
Ok am ready for shadow of war in ps plus free game 😋
Awesome 👍
thx now im gonna play shadow of war
Your welcome, enjoy Shadow of War!
The lore of this game is all messed up. How is this in played out within the 60 year gap between the Hobbit and LOTR Trilogy if Minas Ithil has not yet fallen in Shadow of Mordor?? Smaug burns Dale in TA 2770, and Minas Ithil falls in TA 2002. So this is clearly before The Hobbit in somewhere before TA 2002. Gollum (Smeagol) was born in TA 2430, so he shouldn't even appear in the games. All of it makes 0 sense....
Thanks, great video!
Thanks 😁
By the way, the Tower is the only one that’s explicitly Númenorean. The Hammer was a Gondorian stretcher bearer. The Black Hand has unknown origin, the in game lore says “some say he was once a great king from the East that brought Sauron the heads of two Istari as gifts. Others say he returned across the sea with Sauron after the fall of Númenor. Some say he is Sauron himself, again in fair form within Mordor.
🤓
What is a “stretcher bearer?”
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 a stretcher is a a board that two people would use to carry wounded/dead away from the battlefield, stretcher bearers would either be combat medics or just helping them.
@@ericrooney
That’s quite the arc for a person to go from doing that to becoming the Hammer of Sauron lol. Thx for the reply.
Thank you for the narration!
Your welcome, hope you found it helpful
Thank you. I picked up Shadow of war on 70% sale.
Thanks for the recap!
Your welcome 😁
Thanks!! I played shadow of mordor almost a year ago or more...so i forgot most of the story but thanks to this story explanation now i remember everything and now i can play Shadow of war without any confusion thanks! And you have a lovely voice.
Do you also do a podcast about the Crusades? You have exactly the same voice
No I haven't, curious to listen to it though
@@N7Kate it's called the History of the Crusades and i listen to it on Spotify.
Without the lootboxes and micro transaction system , Shadow of War is now a GREAT game . Sick story and lore , smooth gameplay , probably the best enemy AI system of Nemesis for interactions and library is cool , so every playthrough is VERY different . Just one of the best games imo :D
So has the lootbox and microtransaction system been removed now? If so that's awesome. Does Act 4 still feel as grindy or have they balanced that better?
@@N7Kate Yeah that pay to win system is removed since around 2 years now I guess . For normal game , there is no grind but for obtaining all fortress is a bit of grind . I enjoy it though as orc captains and chiefs are amazig and funny to meet . Not boring imo .
Thank you so much, it's still helpful 6 years later. I just installed shadow of war and needed to know the end of SoM cuz I stopped mid game. After watching the video I'm sad I wasnt able to power through the slow part mid game, it was just a bit too boring and I couldnt continue anymore, but seems that the story regain its footing after that boring part and endgame is epic
Wait...you fight fucking Sauron?!?! Fuck now I wish I could play Shadow of Mordor before Shadow of War, but PsPlus will give us the later for this month
Starting Shadow of War soon after picking up both games for peanuts!
Shadow of Mordor has been an absolute master piece!
I have recently downloaded Middle Earth Shadow Of Mordor on the Xbox One and i have enjoyed it 🙂. I don’t know about you guys but when i play Shadow Of Mordor it feels like The Crow at the same time because Talion was killed and later resurrected and banished from death and he wants revenge . Same with Eric in The Crow , he was killed and resurrected and sought out revenge . I feel like that both Talion and Eric in The Crow has similiar motive and Talion gets his powers from his Wraith Celebrimbor and Eric gets his source of his powers from The Crow 🙂
only 78k views is absurd this is the best and most straightforward video I could find explaining this exact same thing in under 25 minutes lol
Thank you !
Your welcome 😁 Hope you found it helpful
Nicely explained
This was an excellent recap before I play SoW, thank you.
I'm sorry but it isn't confirmed that the 3 black captains were numenorean
Good video bb
Thanks 😁
Thanks alot for this video !! Way better then all the other I saw. As someone who didn't even read or watch lord of the ring it is very helpful lol.
God bless everyone and have a good day
To you too 😁
@@N7Kate ❤️
I picked this up for the Xbox one in 2014. But I ended up selling my Xbox one for personal reasons so I didn't play much of som, however I did enjoy what I did play. Now I have a ps4 pro and just picked up Sow. I thought about getting both bus since I play games on the hardest level and don't play everyday It may take me just too long to finish both games In order. So here I am about to load up SOW thinking it's going to be a solid game with a nice story. Thanks for the vid.
Really good video to remind me of the story before beginning Shadow Of War
Just got Shadow of War for 10 dollars and watching this to catch up, thanks.
Great! Thanks. I was playing shadow of mordor long enough to forget the plot. Now I'm ready to begin Shadow of War!
Spoilers for the end of s.o.m
At the end of the game he says he is going to forge a new ring of power, when he says that his eyes glow orange just like Sauron through the cutscenes in the game, does this show that talion is now possessed by not only the celebrimbor but also sauron
Just got it off the steam sale and u saved me again since the witcher 3 thanks!
Thanks very much! I recently played Shadow of Mordor but still didn't fully understand the story, this helped a lot.
Great video, thanks!
Thank you for this, so good!!
I never played Shadow of Mordor, but I just bought Shadow of War on Steam as it is on sale for $10! Thank you so much for your video, lady!
Your welcome 😁 enjoy Shadows of War!
Subbed, thank you for the quick breakdown, as I do want to start the 2nd game soon, and I love the LOTR lore, it's fantastic! 🙌😃💯
Thanks so much for subbing! Hope you found the video helpful. Agreed, LOTR lore is amazing and super interesting. Enjoy the 2nd game 😁
Thank you so much! Never finished Shadow of Mordor, so this is helpful going into the sequel!
Same here. I got about 70% finished with shadow of mordor and I'm thinking of getting shadow of war. Is the game good?
The surprise to see ratbag alive
Really helpful thank you
You my girl know want your doing i feel like iv played Shadows of Mordor. I haven't but starting Shadows of War tonight
Thanks 😁 enjoy Shadows of War!
better than other videos
Here after shadow of war gone free on PS. Thanks for the video great explanation 👍🏻
Your welcome, glad I can help. Enjoy Shadow of War!
great video
Awesome video, thanks
Good synopsis
Thanks for this one! I also really liked your summary of The Witcher game before I started playing The Witcher 2. Hope that you will keep on making awesome summaries as these!
Keep up the good work Kate, I wish you get more subs and views for your content. Most informative and easy to follow video I have come across in regard to the title.
Thanks 😁 appreciate it
That helps.
w vid
Thanks, needed this info
Great job Kate! I love your story so far videos, they always get me hyped for the next instalment!
Ash's Channel Thanks :) I really enjoy making them so planning more in the future
The game is a masterpiece, far ahead of his time. I will not exalt his great arc that adds points to cinematic- Lord of the Rings franchise or the references to the old Peter Jackson's movies. The shadow of Mordor fixes one of the most serious problems in gaming, that death is meaningless. For example, If a super-gamer plays super Mario and die forty times, he doesn't give a shit, there are three more 'lifes' to save the day. In contrary to Mario and gaming generally, the SOM makes the death meaningful, death has a negative impact on the hero's goal to take down Sauron's leaders. The hero corpse is a promotion to an orc minion to become a leader. Do you see the contradiction? I would resolutely recommend it to any lord of the ring fan and beyond.
Just bought Shadow of War and this video really helped to freshen up the memory. Thank you!😀
Thank you so much. Just bought Shadow of War for the Steam winter sale, but never quite finished Shadow of Mordor. So this video helps a lot.
Really big help. I was given the shadow of war as a gift but hadnt played the first one fully. This helps me recap so i am not lost in the new one
What a stupid idea to forge a new ring to fight against the lord of the rings trying to make an army to overwhelm an enemy that can not be vanquished in the field.
Splendid work, thank you.
One of the best summary recaps I have seen for this game so far.
Best Shadow of Mordor recap
This was perfect! Keep your work up
Very useful, thanks!
Great and informative video. Thanks.
Very nice. Good info
Great job,seriously Thank you for this video.

Nice, concise summary. Exactly what I needed before I play through Shadow of War. Thank You!
Nice work. Thank you :) Exactly what i was looking for before beginning Shadow of War.
Absolutely perfect. Thanks so much for the much needed recap!
