Dishonored 2 vs Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor
Dishonored 2
Dishonored 2 lets you reprise your role as THE supernatural assassin but this time around, the game brings you to the once-amazing coastal city of Karnaca, where an otherworldly being has usurped Empress Emily Kaldwin's throne, throwing the fate of the Isles off-balance. The gameplay in Dishonored 2 has been greatly improved with the new Mark of the Outsider and a whole myriad of new powers along with a much advanced bonecharm crafting and upgrade trees, weapons and gadgets as well. Similar to the previous game, your actions during a mission will change the world around you and often results in different outcomes.Dishonored 2 was unfortunately plagued with performance issues during its release, and hence, the game has been overlooked by many. However, if you can forgive the downsides which are pretty much rectified over time with patches, the game is definitely a step-up from the original and is worth every cent you spent in buying it.
Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor
Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor is one of the best games when it comes to the Lord of the Rings franchise... and yes, as much as we've enjoyed it, this means this game is way better than Lord of the Rings Online. Featuring a gameplay that may bring to mind other action-oriented RPGs like Assassin's Creed, Batman: Arkham and even Prince of Persia, Shadow of Mordor is a game that rewards stealthy attacks and yet if you prefer going after your opponents head-on, you can. Of course, the game is literally covered - oozing, in fact - with sweet, honey-like lore from the Lord of the Rings universe, and its graphics and soundtracks are simply superb.That said, the best part in this game is how everything major thing you do has an impact on the virtual world and this is best seen through the game's revolutionary Nemesis system. As the game progresses, you'll also unlock a wide variety of really cool abilities, one of which will allow you to mind-control orcs and turn them into your very own personal army.
Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor is perhaps one of the best RPGs out there that, despite its not-so-short 3 years on the market, the game has garnered overwhemingly positive reviews from both critics and fans alike.
