Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor vs The Witcher
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.
The Witcher
The Witcher is one of the most world acclaimed action RPGs of its time. Inspired by the story and its fantasy world from the renowned Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, The Witcher casts you as a famous mutant swordmaster and a professional monster slayer, Geralt of Rivia, in a non-linear yet intriguing plot filled with difficult decisions and important social topics like racism, politics and genocide. Being an action RPG, the game offers you hundreds of special abilities, potions and other magical augmentations in addition to realistic medieval sword-fighting moves to use in order to tactically take down your enemies depending on your own preferences, character build and play styles.The Witcher has come a long way since its first release back in 2008 and to celebrate its accomplishments, the developer, CD Projekt Red, has created a premium edition of the game complete with a rework of several aspects of the game, and include a director's cut, game guides, music CDs and a whole lot of other goodies. The game experience itself, despite having old-timey graphics, is already worth the cost but if you can get a ton of othe freebies, well, why not?
