im currently still playing shadow of war, and when i see and unknown captain, i always feel like its a gacha, if its good and cool, or weird and funny, i recruit. but if its just basic, i kill him. in my opinion the game is very unique and cool and its like a pokemon game for me. so for me Shadow of war is very very worth it, especially if it is on discount. for shadow of mordor, i dont know, havent played it yet.
@@ZenkoiGod15I met him once but he didn't mention the wife or kids he mentioned how to the dark lord was going to take over and invade the first area your in so it was a foreshadow for me
@@IStealButterdToast I'll be serious, perhaps you could try becoming a dev, if you could make it, we'd love another middle-earth game like shadow of mordor and shadow of war.
I watched this video to decide, which game I'd want to play first, since I recently watched the LotR movies and fell in love with that world, but maybe not enough to play 2 big games. But then I realized I can get Shadow of Mordor for 3,50€ and Shadow of War for 4,50€. So yeah.... I'll get both, it's insane how cheap these two and Witcher 3 are. But thanks for the very informative and fun video!
One thing a lot of people forget about in shadow of Mordor not being in shadow of war is the captain wars/battles where it was like a 5v5 with your captains
oh very nice! ive just started playing Mordor and wanted a sneak peak for SoW which im most certainly playing next and this vid recently coming out is a sign lol
I played both parts for long periods of time. The second part added improvements to the Nemesis system and went deeper into the RPG elements. With excellent artistic direction, but the choice of texture was not successful and it was very clear that the first part was superior in terms of details and graphics, and the combat system in Mordor was also better.
It would be cool a sandbox game like this just instead of just orcs, a map with orcs, elf’s, humans, and dwarves, and pick your faction to conquer others while the ai tries to conquer you and the other ai s
6:00 i mean, if you think that in Shadow of War Talion already has The One Ring and later Isildur's Ring, which is not the case in Shadow of Mordor this would make a lot of sense...
best part of shadow of war is it is NOT super seriously. Even if you design and make the most awesome orc, you'll find another thats deranged or something thats so funny you forget about all your work. Saddest part is the Nemesis System is locked in behind proprietary permissions :(
From the description, I think I don't really like the Shadow of War loot system cause the weapons we had in shadow of Mordor are special because they belong to Talion or related to him or Celebrimbor. The sword is his, the broken blade his son's and the bow Celebrimbor's. That made them special and I feel like just giving them more power from runes is still a better option. Like the armor pieces tho, they're sick.
If you haven’t finished the game yet be aware this is a spoiler but close to the end of the game the original weapons get an overhaul to the Ringwraith version and you can keep them or change them out personally I switch out but to each their own
I loved Shadow of Mordor my real issue with Shadow of War isn't the microtransations it was the bloat. It felt like an assassins creed open world and that just didn't work for me personally.
And also one time I was fighting a orc and a spear guy was going for the kill then it suddenly froze before he killed me and somehow I was saved by him the name was blank I let him kill me and he’s now really good
I played both, obviously the newer one is better and thats mainly because there are different races of orcs to capture, also I really like Talons endgame gear
What I love most about shadow of war is the glitches and bugs cause one time I was in a online vendetta then I was on a caragor then I press run at the split second I got on I hited a wall and I got sent flying and the mission was failled
Yo downloaded again shadow of war 4 days ago .. lost my progress … played it today for straight 6 hours done talion level 16… at lvl 16 you start enjoying this game a lot cuz unlock combos which necessary to take fight … before lvl 15 … fights ain’t good
In my opinion, Mordor is better because its atmosphere is darker, its story is better, and it takes up less space on the device. After unlocking all the skills, you will not find that big difference.
I ve Player both games but personaly in shadow of war orcs do the work and u just watch but shadow of mordor actually take some skills and the combat is way better , but both are amazing
ola sou do brazil prefiro shadow of war por conta dos fortes traiçoes enganar mortes salvamento e especiais cicatrizes de resto sombras de mordor é muito melhor graficos e orcs unucos
The thing that ruins shadow of war is the fact that the warcheif interaction are severely limited (riots gone and pitched battles are trash) and even worse, orcs no longer get promoted unless they kill the player. Orcs literally get plopped down where they are and never really advance through the system. Sucks though because ut is really hard going back to shadow of mordor because of all the quality of life stuff. 🫤

I’ve always described it like orcs are your Pokémon as well lol thanks for watching!!
@@LiveFromMyBasementdo you ever met a Black gate Orc in shadow of war, if you did what was your reaction when he said about Talions wife and kid

@@ZenkoiGod15you need to play the first game for story bro
@@ZenkoiGod15well played recently and got plat , never met any only Ratbag and well same as the first one
Such a shame Warner patented the nemesis system it had so much potential.
It’s wild
The real kicker is that they haven’t made a game with those mechanics since.
I have such good ideas for a Shadow of ____ game that’s set in the 1st age

@@alkinoriblue5127 I can write a good story but dammit god knows I can’t code properly
I got Shadow Of Mordor today and i already love it, its so fun. I was blown away by the world and story
I bought it two years ago but started to play it yesterday. I am having a blast as I like Assassin's Creed type of games.
I just bought SoW, thanks to this video! I have finished SoM several years ago, looking forward to SoW. You got yourself a subscriber, kind Sir!
No problem! And thanks for the support!!
my biggest complaint with shadow of war is that when you take a fort. you should also take the outposts as well
these missions guarantees maniacs

Oh yea they go on HUGE discounts it’s nutty. Thanks for watching!!
That also happened when I was fighting a orc I legit went flying across the map it’s to much fun the game and also the orcs and voices
This is such a random video to be uploaded in 2024 lmao but I recently started shadow of war so W.
Lol on my 3rd replay of the game and just beat it. Love this game
Very good comparison, love how you get to the point and demonstrate it as well. Exactly what I'm after :D Shadow of War here I come!
Thank you!! And thanks for watching!!

It definitely does! Thanks for watching!!

I will buy the collection next week
It's £8 for double pack of both complete additions on xbox store till Monday I believe

If I could get the shadow of war orc vs orc combat system implanted into shadow of mordor 👌💯
Screw Warner, we cannot use the Nemesis System, what are they going to do with it anyway?
#Shadow of Middle earth. Coming……….2032.
