As of now I am quite unfamiliar with the lord of the rings universe hence why the story might not have grabbed me however I do believe the delivery here is not on point.

I truly believe that this game simply does not leave you the time to actually figure anything out, it throws you in an open world telling you all these things, dumping numerous mechanics and characters on you. I felt like I truly did not have the space to appreciate anything I was doing.

The disconnect between me and the game's world has not ceased to grow since my rising disappointment in the initial hours. A certain jankiness is also present that never really ceased to make itself noticed in any aspect of the gameplay be it movement, stealth or combat.

Props deserve to be given to the fun Nemesis system yet everything surrounding it from story to gameplay just failed to make me further interested.
