[Megathread] Middle-earth: Shadow of War

[Deleted]

For some reason I couldn't finish this game. It got really repetitive after a while. I'm sure it was a great game, but for me it was meh.

Prolly because it was slightly repetitive game, smaller sized at that. From what i was able to gather, it was more of a test-game, if people would buy a non canon lotr game, they succeeded, so they're (hopefully) making proper full fleshed game.

We will get the first gameplay footage on March 8 so not that long.

That's a lot of money for a game, but that statue does look awesome.

I'll be playing on PS4, so I don't mind about the keybinds .

So hyped for this. If anything, Shadows of Mordor is one of the best beat-em ups of all time. This game will either be great or absolute trash. There is no in between.

Wonder why the standard edition is priced at £44.99 on steam, think the 1st installment was only £39.99. Loved the first, but will not pre-order till reviews and game play footage comes out, sequels tend to be bad.

Microtransactions.. I'm out. Will pirate instead.

"In-App Purchases"

Oh noes, the game will get more content later on. Good reason to pirate...

In app purchases are generally different than DLC stuff. Microtransactions or 'in app purchases' are more often things like Keys to unlock boxes etc.

I would still hold off and wait first before getting too angry about them, some games with in apps don't always have microtransactions and some games with microtransactions don't even have 'in app purchases' on steam.

Prehaps you didn't see the "Mortal Kombat" Microtransactions.

This game I hated at first and let it rot in my steam library for months. And then I loaded it up on a whim one day and fell in love, 100% that bitch.

People use both all the time, it's so confusing. Not that I consider something for €10 to be a 'micro'transaction, but I just assume they mean DLC with it. If it really turns out to be in-game currency of some kind, or ways to unlock stuff faster, then I don't really have a problem with it as long as I can still get everything without having to buy it.

Prehaps you didn't see the "Mortal Kombat" Microtransactions.

I actually have no clue what those are.

If it's anything like the Batman games there'll probably be costumes and other aesthetic stuff, I don't know why some people need an excuse pretend they're justified pirating stuff.
