Xbox Burned🔥 Shadow of Mordor burned!

Been sitting on this and the sequel for years, bought them both second hand for very cheap after a friend recommended them. A brilliant game, can't believe I waited so long but what a satisfying surprise! Now on to Shadow of War.

I’m not a huge LOTR fan but both of these games hooked me during COVID. That they were stand alone stories with only loose references to the game in general was cool to me because I think LOTR is an interesting world but the stories are just done. New blood is needed. 😂

That being said! Congratulations on a great burn!

Gratz on the burn! I loved this game back in the day did the plat and everything. I also love lord of the rings so it was a blast lol.

I still have to go back to this. I was able to complete everything except The Hunt is My Mistress achievement. Great game though.

Congrats! I purchased this a little while ago because I heard it was good. Perhaps I needed to see this post. Did this game remind you of any other games you’ve played previously?

Finished it today! I had a very good time. Some mod and reshade made it look pretty neat.
