This game is so fucking great

>What is XCOM: War of the Chosen
Its funny that the same day WOTC came out Mario ripped XCOM right the fuck off.

I wish to god this game wasn't set in LOTR so I could actually enjoy it. The mechanics and game are fun as fuck but I'm a lotr-autist and its such a horrendous abomination of the lotr lore that I literally can't play the game. I cannot for the life of me think of any other game or spin off of any series that is as lore breaking as this game.

>butchered LOTR lore with bamham combat
This game is fucking awful

I want the next Saints Row to use the nemesis system but only if it goes back to the gangbanging roots

Nigga I love LotR but you need to get over your autism, you could literally pretend its any other setting since they all rip it off so heavily anyway

This is a great idea
Imagine doing conquests on an enemy gangs turf and killing the Don
So fun

So The Godfather game?

I can get over my autism for every other lotr game that breaks the lore, but this series goes WAY too far to look past. I literally turned the game off and never played again when they said Helm Hammerhand was one of the Nazgul

The movies must of fucking near killed you

>tfw no superhero game using the Nemesis system
>tfw no supervillain companion game using the Nemesis system

No. When they start making Shelob, the daughter of literal chaos, some bland quelaag seductress I just see red.

This game is actually really fucking fun for a few hours but unfortunately it does get repetitive pretty quick. Still glad it exists though. One of the better 5 dollar used purchases I've made.

YOU WILL OBEY

Am I too late for the seething Lord of the Rings fanboys?

The movies didn't rape the lore.

With an actual class system, yes. You could incorporate elements of Bully and have factions/cliques too. Fun as fuck nigga.

Not really. As far as movie adaptations of books go Peter Jackson didn't do ~that~ bad of a job except for the hobbit where the dwarves were oddly handsome and sexualized for some reason and they added that weird romance with the elf

just in time!

Pretty Sauron is an insult and the developers deserve branding for it!

Just in time my man just got here

I don't because why the fuck would I subject myself to Battle of the Five Armies after Desolation of Smaug

Oh yes he fucking did
He did because he's useless in post-game and it's a pain in the ass to get rid of him

He just wanted you to acknowledge him and be the tiniest smidgen of nice to people.

This is the biggest missed opportunity of all.

You're only saying this because you probably used him for a conquest and his cries of "YOU CAN HAVE THE FOOOORT" got to you emotionally
You're soft and Bruz got what was coming to him

>Batman game with the nemesis system
Billion dollar idea.

Nah. I warmed to him from the start because the betrayal arc was obvious from about two seconds in. It's hard to hate someone set up to fall like that.

My experience was like this. The Orcs really don't matter, and you can't do much with them. Once you realize that it ruins the magic.

Played the first one
>they show off the tutorial
>this is cool i cant wait to see the rest
>its all the same shit
Fuck, its like they took one mechanic from a good game and made it the whole game

it would only work with an OC superhero game, since people would just get mad about random thugs taking the Joker's place or whatever

You could still have a nemesis system and make it more expansive but make Joker, Bane, Penguin types like legendary Pokemon, making it so you can only encounter them once with only one chance at recruiting. I can't imagine people being too upset about that aside from the biggest Yea Forums spergs

Minus the not-dwarves the first movie was great
Next 2 are 100% garbage though

>Batman game with the nemesis system
It's called Shadow of Mordor

Maybe. But there's also the property owners themselves. A similar problem sunk DC Universe Online, where the player OCs couldn't be greater than the existing characters

AC Odyssey.

This scene was fucking incredible

I just wish it could have kept its tone straight but I guess dragging it out so long causes a lot of issues

The game is held back by how incredibly easy it is. The nemesis system is a cool idea but really comes into play if you just kill every orc the first time you meet him.

Yeah the memorable ones are the orcs that fuck you up
Although every now and then you'll get that one cunt who shames you like 3 times in a row

A passable attempt at best, it pales in comparison to SoW, mostly because theyre always the same 3 troll looking spergs with the same lines and personalities. It's a decent basis for something great however I doubt it'll be fully realised. I'm thinking upjumped regular ayy's who become captains, you could save on VA costs by just having them speak in alien language with subtitles too, then you've got endless possibilities for different alien captain archetypes with mods. Doubt it'll happen in xcom 3 though.

>play it a year ago

how do i do it bros

Maku the Fixer

I feel like a tard for noticing this just recently when it's literally at the top of the steam workshop, but the LOTR for mount and blade warband is some good shit.

Having every faction have it's seperate gold is fucking retarded, rank/renown and "influence" I get but dosh? soldier wage and food dosh? FUCKING WHY

Assassins, berserkers and slayers are the only classes that have a chance at fucking you up
Everyone else is a literal joke

My most memorable one ended up being this supreme loser who wouldn't stay dead. I'd send him off on a fight he'd lose, he would die and return. He just kept coming back no matter what I threw him into despite being useless in every way. His can do attitude grew on me in the end.

Even the highest difficulty isn't hard it's just frustrating, you can easily abuse the game by dancing around due to no stam bar, and if you get hit, just run away and heal by draining an orc, then repeat. I lowered it on occasion just because it became a chore.
Plus I had to actively gimp myself by not unlocking skills that would make the game too easy and ignoring all the upgrades to keep my health low.
Turning off combat indicators is essential as well.

My nemesis from shadow of mordor appeared in one of the story missions at the beginning of the game, he was immune to everything except fire and it was the one time the game was legitimately difficult because it almost felt broken as it was within an area that made it almost impossible to damage him. Good times.
I never finished it properly, I was waiting for them to rework that endgame but they just made it shorter not any more interesting. Maybe I'll go back to it.

WE COULD USE OURSELF WITH THE PALANTIR

Just a reminder, this was the same guy who voiced Senator Armstrong

Looks good but I only played it for a bit and the font annoyed me.
I think I've played enough warband, I need bannerlord.

TALION, I'M GOING TO SAY THE N WORD

NPALANTIR

NUMENORIANS

NTHE RING, TALION

Dont be fuckin riddiculous, the mercenaries do not evolve, you do not interact with them, you just kill them once and thats it, its more of a "kill this stuff" leaderboard

AC Odyssey took the bare minimum of the nemesis system while stripping out everything interesting about it.
