Cool ideas but I don't trust that video for a moment, looks way too scripted.

like the first game, bland gameplay, jst cool minor stuff

would buy for 5 bucks

Gimme a sec, there's a lot of new info from Pax East. Gonna copy it from leddit :^)

combat looks like you are shackled in animations and have very little input

also would have been much better if they had created a new IP instead of bastardizing the Tolkins vision.

not just with all the new made up magic stuff but also the smart Trolls, Female Orcs and "joker" Orc

First game was good. This one looks GREAT!

I like the LotR universe, but it's too confined. I don't alt lore like this at all.

>ITT: cucks

If it's an evolved form of the Nemesis system then everything you just saw is plausible.

>There are multiple areas which are unlocked trough the Conquering of the Castle which all are bigger then the previous maps in the first game with Mission and Side Quest for each Hub, and the World will change depending on the Overlord you put in place.

>HE has confirmed that you will be able to save you're guys from Dying, when the big guy goes down in the regular game he will be able to be patched up and most likely depending on how tough he is will have to retreat or fight further.

>You're Followers can be given the Role of a Bodyguard and can be called on like in the Boss Battle at anytime, or they will help you in the fight if they can see you and reach you. So if you're dude isn't standing next to you and isn't a Magician or Archer he wont be able to help so easily. Maybe some will throw axes i don't know.

>The Betrayal will work in such a way that people can start to hate some actions you take, for example Uruk 1 hates Uruk 2 and you promoted Uruks 2 so Uruk 1 is so pissed of he joins the Dark Lord again. Other ways are you leaving them behind wounded on the battlefield or retreating without them.

>Some Uruks will be without mind control and follow you out of either liking you or hating Sauron.

>There are around 20 of these Fortresses from what i could tell.

>Ring wraiths will be fought in game but from what i could tell only in Story they aren't a Thing in the normal world and always encountered trough Side Quest or Main Quests.

>You're Fortress can be attacked and reclaimed

>Drakes exist in the free world and can be used without restriction.

>Every Uruks you have can be trained and Upgraded into different classes. There are two ways that could be done either making them a different class like turning a Beast Master into a Flame User OR upgrading a Beast Master into a sort of Beast Lord which can command bigger and better creatures, also upgrading his Gear is possible.

I mean the combat, dragon, the way your companions interact in the fight, etc. I have my doubts.

>He has said since he was asked so many times that yes it was a goddamn god mode. There was infinite arrows health and Executions, also he was pretty much mid game so he had some pretty decent loot already. Oh and you know he didn't want to waste the 16 Minutes on some dude dying and tacking 16 Minutes to beat the first gate.

>You're Fortress is improvable and the defenses are Changeable. You can recreate the entire Fortress of this Gameplay trailer, with the Oil the Drake and the Boulder Throwing Graug. A fully upgraded Castle will be much harder to take with much more Points and much more possible Warchiefs to defend the castle.

>Talion will get his beard back. I personally liked him this more but many people asked for it.

>Uruks weak to fire can die instantly like the Uruk in the Trailer and Uruks immune to it will be able to power trough and take part in the battle.

>Wounds on the Uruks are a little more detailed, they aren't just three cuts and the same Burn Mark. If a guy gets killed by a dragon ad he comes back he will look pretty fucked up, a guy who got hit with the sword not so much.

>Overlords can be taken over instead of completely out in the regular game. They didn't do this in the gameplay cause they wanted to show that you can promote you're own dude instead and they change it does to the world.

>The Balrog is an In Game Enemy, I know no shit but some people thought he was gonna be some Object thats just in Cutscenes. He is not.

>Talion will interact with his Uruks more, besides of giving them a pat on the back for good work like with the "Nice Shot" comment he will be able to get attached to Uruks. Urks can get attached to Uruks

>Uruks no longer have to be grabbed to be tuned like its shown in the gameplay you can do so like with regular Uruks in the first game by holding B, but only after you weaken or terrify them enough.

Anything about open world? I don't want to have to choose each location/fortress like in the preview.

Some nice ideas but they shoveled too much of the old engine / models / graphics into this to save money.

Looks the same, that's boring when they expect so much money.

is it just me or do the graphics look way worse? like the art style has this horrible color to it

and the combat animations look like trash compared to the first one too

wtf?

>Depending on the Difference of Power you're Uruks can pretty much take care of the battle for you if you want. If you send in a Level 50 Dude against a whole Castle of 10 they can be pretty much killed without harming a single hair on you're Uruks face.

>Uruks will have there own little personality traits like in the first one with a little more impact. An insane Uruks will be a pretty bad Overlord since he cant really plan a good defense and a coward can pretty much just grabbed or even run away at the sight of Talion. Also anybody who wants to have an Uruks with the name the Coward is pretty much doing so knowing there not getting much.

>There are more Animals, no Word about how big and if they are tamable but they have said each Region has some different animals and some that are the same. For example the Ice Region has Frost Spider and Caragors while they Desert Region has the Crystal Snake and also Caragors.

>This is fairly important since i have heard many people complain about this. The Difficulty. They have not only like i said played with Cheats, no they have played in the EASY DIFFICULTY. Yeah thats right this game has difficulty setting so you can expect quite a few challenges

>All stuff from the first game is included so stuff like leveling the Uruks, Free roam outside of the mission are included also.

>The creatures have variation depending on the Region so a Graug inside a Snow Part will have fur for example.

>Skill Tree will be much bigger seen examples are amongst other things. The Ability to "Pull" an enemy towards you instead of teleporting to him he will teleport to you. You can sprint faster and jump higher. Double Takedowns are a thing.

>The appearance of the Loot and the Orc itself will change depending on the Area. For example a more fur based armor in the Snow setting.

>Yeah thats right this game has difficulty setting so you can expect quite a few challenges
Yeah the stream mentioned there's a "hardcore" mode this time around

Alpha usually means it's not finished yet.
But if this is the direction they're going for looks then I'm opting out, wait for a graphics mod or something if it's possible.

I hope Ratbag comes back to be an absolute legend in this one.

It's either going to be him or Az-laar that's going to teach you about managing your army.

>also he was pretty much mid game
>in an alpha

thats not how an alpha works user.
Also so many you're that are wrong jesus

The demo has unlimited executions going on.

you must be a ubisoft dev

there are 8 areas and each area is about the size of the one of the areas from the last game if not bigger

each also has its own fortress

I copied it from leddit tbqh

> tfw a single tear falls into Cuiviénen from Tolkien's eternal soul.

The executions in the gameplay trailer were really killing it for me. I hope that shit gets toned down; it's not fun to just press x to eliminate an enemy with one of six animations.

Looks like casual dudebro garbage which is not surprising at all, the first one was aimed at that market.

Bought the first one, played it for a while then left it to the wayside when I felt I had done most everything and learned the ending was a shitty QTE. Heard about Shadow of War. Went back to SoM and 100 percented it. Just finishing up the achievements.

If it really is 4x as big as the last game, the nemesis system is slightly better, and the ending actually has you fighting a final boss instead of just mashing buttons I'd preorder it now. But until I know more Its on my "maybe" list.

It's an alpha.

He has said since he was asked so many times that yes it was a goddamn god mode. There was infinite arrows health and Executions, also he was pretty much mid game so he had some pretty decent loot already. Oh and you know he didn't want to waste the 16 Minutes on some dude dying and tacking 16 Minutes to beat the first gate.

There were a live stream on twitch for channel "monolithlive" devs of the game, answered some question,
and some of which are:

>Game isn't easy as in trailer
>There is Hard Mode
>Az-Laar can be saved
>Revengeful warchiefs can be rebranded
>Overlords can be branded
>Runes for armor and ring
>More areas accessible than just Mordor

that's some that i catch on the fly, for more go watch vid of the broadcast

>DBZ and such got shit load of non canons, and no1 gives a damn
>Tolkien works got some non canons - everyone loses their mind

>everyone loses their mind
>a few neckbeards on the internet pretending to like the books
Ehm no

>casual dudebro garbage market
You are fucking retarded. Go back and pretend you have better taste than everyone else playing whatever shitty games you play you dumb faggot.
This is not spam you fucking niggers

>Ratbag saves you at the start of the game from a ringwraith or some shit
>shows you the ropes of the new nemesis system
>you notice his title is no longer the coward but Ratbag the Reborn
