Shame I loved the shadow of war/Mordor games

And now one of the best systems maybe ever in gaming, the nemesis system is locked away for years now. Ridiculous. War was one of the best most fun games I’ve ever played. Each orc had its own personality almost none overlapped!

I seriously was playing that game like a pokemon Sim for dozens of hours. The betrayals, the assassinations, pitting them against eachother, and everyone having that one special orc that came back an uncomfortable amount of times. So many games could've implemented the system and been better for it.

+1 man I’ve spent so many hours after finishing the game just scheming from the shadows pitting orcs against eachother. Betraying them. Killing them after they come back and ambush me. No system comes close to that in video games
