No way.
That fucking shit trend of putting a short trailer at the beginning of the video is now spreading from movie trailers.
Looks like it's expanding on what made the original awesome and making it so there's more shit to do. I love it.
Every minute of that was pure yes.
If the launch game really is like this, I'm gonna love the hell out of it.
I'd be apprehensive if the nemesis system wasn't so good before. This could easily be GOTY material if they do it right, I only hope that there is varied enough writing and voice acting to keep it fresh for good few hours.
Damn, looking really good.
do talion and celebrimbor even know that the one ring has to be destroyed to truly win?

Celebrimbor was told that he can't leave Middle-Earth until the one-ring is destroyed but at this time no one knows where it is so they're doing this.
Wow this looks really fun
They're going to need either 50gb of VA or a very good system to mix soundbites to avoid it being repetitive, but this looks fantastic. The "slain my drake" bit makes me think it's the second one.
Hella cinematic, and seems to take away a lot of player control? Hope the game doesn't launch with a downgraded version.
I've been planning on getting the first one for awhile, definitely seems worth it
Mounting drakes? siege warfare, grooming warlords and infighting within your own ranks? Sign me right the fuck up, this looks amazing!

I assume that's more because it's an official gameplay video.
[QUOTE=Burre.png;51931159]What do you mean :huh:[/QUOTE]
In many trailers (esp. movies), they love putting snippets of the actual content on the first 10 seconds or something, to give the audience a quick look on what to expect.
To some, it kind of ruins some of the surprises as they usually glimpses the most exciting moments.
It's like they're afraid that the viewer will suddenly experience a wave of regret immediately after deliberately pressing a link to the content and will exit unless they give a 5 second teaser of all the cool shit they'll see if they continue watching the video that they were interested in seeing two seconds ago
Lol, it looks like they didnt expand on the actual combat much at all, which was the original games biggest flaw IMO.
I mean I'm seeing the exact same combat animations from the first game. Didn't a lot of people complain about the combat making the game extremely repetitive?
I dig how you can tell that this is an actual alpha-version, because it's filled with small bugs and lacking graphics. Unlike when Ubisoft tries to show off their """Alpha""" versions, which always tend to look 10x better than retail.

It's a sad trend that's come about since the average person's attention span is significantly shorter than it used to be. The age of the internet has brought us many things good things, but it also has caused us to have a lesser attention span than goldfish (not an exaggeration btw).

its so that you're forced to see what they're advertising before hitting "skip ad".
damn this looks fucking fun
Ghost dude is gonna be the final boss isn't he?
Looks a bit rough around the edges but if they pull it off, this could be a fantastic addition to an already brilliant year in gaming.
I love the idea of a followers system. This looks amazing. My only critique of this video is that it made taking over a main fortress look fairly easy to do. And they didn't really talk about how to one-to-one fighting has been improved (other than a few new flashy wraith moves) I was kinda hoping for a more robust infantry combat system, but the addition of commanding your own army is no doubt the main focus anyway.
I'd be really impressed if the final game has as much depth and unique possibilities as this trailer promises. I'm optimistic that they can pull it off though since each warlord in the first game really felt unique with their own attitudes and specialities.

I wouldn't worry just yet, everything was sped up fast for presentation purposes. I'll be very surprised if they haven't upped the difficulty in some way.
Isn't it kinda obvious that some cheat code is turned on for presentation sake?
Talion had infinite executions without having to build up combo. Unless you are telling me that it is actually part of the game's new op skill or smth.
I'm really glad they expanded the nemesis and grooming mechanics by the looks of it.
The cookie cutter arkham combat from the first game was passable - so I think the heavy shift into what they did good (nemesis / etc) is the right direction at first glance.

It wasn't god mode, but something like Fallout4's "immortal" mode, where you still take damage and get stunned etc, but you don't lose ammo and can't actually die. (That's usually what Beth uses for promotional material, just to make sure the PC don't die, but they still take visible health decreasing damage)
Talion never consumed any arrows either, it's completely for presentation. This whole thing might have taken like 25-30min had they not used it, plus it's usually considered visually appealing to see heavy action all the time.... YMMV on that though.
Awesome.
Like, i really fucking want this

He destroyed every chief within seconds so yea it looks like they sped things up a bit for the trailer
I'm hyped but I feel like this game is going to have an Arkham Knight launch and run like absolute shit on day 1, the reccomended specs for this game are pretty big
