A black guy in Middle-Earth? Inconceivable!
lolHow do we fight that which threatens to destroy all of Middle Earth? We forge another one.

I should probably play Shadow of Mordor, huh?
So do these games take place in an alternate universe or are they somehow squeezed into the Middle Earth canon and pulling from some fringe text in an appendices somewhere?
Sauron comes back and sees an orc with a douchey haircut.Maybe they murdered his dog
The first one was overhyped by GAF and left me disappointed. It was so repetitive. I won't fall for it twice.
No Switch?
So much for that Batman reveal.
This seems like a bit of a low key reveal given the success of the first game.
Though, it is still 'early' I suppose.
He does look more like Troy BakerDid they change his face quite a bit?

"do you know whose dog you just killed? It wasnt just anybodys dog. It was the dog of... The Ranger"
*scene of the ranger breaking the floor to find the ring*
"the world's most elite and cheapest orc killing motherfucker. And you just pissed him off"
"b-but site I didn't know"
"it doesn't matter now. Run along Dush"

LOTR fanfiction, ok fine. The gameplay seemed good enough in the first. But crafting another ring of power to combat Sauron? Talk about 1000% missing the point of the original books entirely. The whole thing was about the corrupting effects of power and why they could NOT possibly use a ring of power to defeat him, much less make another one. Hobbits had to be the ones to rid the world of it precisely because they desired no power. If you're gonna make something based on established IP at least try to make an effort to stay in line with its themes and ideology. It's the most celebrated book series of the 20th century, you'd think they'd be a little bit more careful with the lore *shrug*

Why are we still in this era of CGI only trailers for games?
What's WB's March 8th announcement then?
This. Holy shit, this. If they rest on their laurels because they beat out fucking Dragon Age: Inquisition and Assassin's Creed: Unity, this game is going to be terrible. Shadow of Mordor was an 8/10 at best that made it to Game of the Year by virtue of 2014 being one of the worst years I have ever seen for games..
One thing's for certain: In a far more exceptional year for games than 2014, Shadow of War is going to have to work much harder than its progenitor to make as many GOTY lists.
WB was like "Fuck you guys for ruining the surprise here's your trailer you fucks".
Confirmed for Xbox Play Anywhere
