One of the best games of all time. If you enjoy third person medieval adventures or Batman: Arkham style of combat or immersive emergency storytelling, definitely pick this one up.
What I love most about this game is how the world adapts and responds to you, taking note of how you play and adapting to you. There's an entire system dedicated to turning badguys into boss units, giving those boss units a memory of your past interactions and new strengths and weaknesses, plus a system that gives you the means to discover these strengths and weaknesses and hunt these guys down in a whole organic, dynamic world.

Amazing game.

Be aware there is only 1 difficulty and the start might be too much for some gamers starting out.

I'd compare it to Assassin's Creed, Batman, God of War 3 in the gore, stealth and basic mechanics. The gf wanted to try something similar to the above mentioned games but she only recently went from easy to normal difficulty. I might get her to revisit it after her Batman kick ends (going through the Arkham series and Telltale, but then probably going through Telltale TWD and The Last of Us Part 1&2)

For some reason, I can never successfully purchase anything from CDKeys. I've tried various forms of payment and they always fail.

If you're questioning whether or not to buy this, it's a must buy. especially if you're into the type of game. for a 2016 title it still looks and plays great today, one of my all time favorites.

Everyone has said it, but it bears reiteration - one of the best games of the past 10 years, and if you've never played it you're in for a treat.

The follow-up was disappointing - not a "bad" game necessarily, but definitely a failure to capitalize on the promise of the cliffhanger ending of the first IMO. I say this only so you can temper your expectations because, one more time, Shadow of Mordor is an absolute fkkn banger.

Just got the code. Went to enter it into steam and it says the code doesn't work. Trying to contact steam about this problem atm.

Cdkeys is technically a better deal, but you can also buy directly from steam for $3.99. Bypass the problem of third party cd key sellers.

Steam must have just updated their price. It was $20 there just an hour or two ago when I checked. Thanks for the heads-up - I'll buy directly from Steam for only a buck more.

Suicide Squad bombed so hard, that it took the studio that made this video game with it.

I believe this was free at GOG through gaming.amazon.com if you had a Prime subscription. Double check you don't already own it on another game store.

The fact that it's too much for some starting out is actually part of the game's greatness. There's a "Live, Die, Repeat" aspect of the game and that's part of how the game is supposed to work. You die, you become more powerful, and it's altogether likely that it creates (or was caused by) one of these 'boss enemies,' which makes the whole emergent storytelling become so much more immersive and personal for you. It's all the more satisfying to track down that captain who killed you and revenge-murder him -- especially because he remembers that he killed you and he taunts you with the details.
