It started to drag towards the ends, and I’m sure you could blitz through it a lot quicker than I did if you didn’t keep getting sidetracked, but overall it was an enjoyable sequel to a game to a game I really enjoyed.

*Spoiler*
I have to say, I thought the games had a fanatic storyline which could easily be converted in to a TV series or film. I was actually a bit emotional when Talion turned it to one of the nine, but then when he got released walking through the grass towards Gondor. Would have been nice if his wife and child were waiting for him.

It is a brilliant series of games, it's like Arkham City had been merged with Skyrim playing wise. The DLCs are worth it mate so if you feel flush invest.

Would love another game in that style, or just a new game in middle earth, there's so many tales to tell.

Me and my mates did the Doomsday Heist on GTA last night, it was super fun. A bit bonkers like previous GTAs but still felt like the modern GTA (if that makes any sense).

New island heist next, really can't wait

The island hiest is alright, definitely better with mates. It's more of a slog though than the others and annoying as fuck in parts. I've done a few runnthroughs of it now.

Building your army is really fun, and when you can start taking over your fort and defending it is when it gets good. Just a tip, you can use fight pits to level your orcs, but be aware the AI in fight pits is absolute dogmeat. Don't waste good orcs in online fight pits, because of the previous reason. Berserkers with defender shields and loads of rage triggers are absolute monsters if you can get them. Doing the online weekly quests will get you loads of free upgrades for your orcs. Oh and always upgrade their weapon to fire, poison or curse, its cheap but effective upgrade.
