A ”Metroidvania” style game where you explore a large facility and need to obtain weapons and upgrades to progress through previously inaccessible areas. It’s actually quite impressive for what was originally an Xbox Live Arcade game.
Fallout 4 is an action-RPG with a ridiculous amount of in-game customization. The detailed, post-apocalyptic world of Boston is fun to explore and the main story actually kept me engaged. The few drawbacks it does have are not enough to keep players from investing several hundred hours into the game.
Even with its fun, yet repetitive gameplay, and the very cool Nemesis system, there’s nothing about Shadow of Mordor that makes it a must-play title. It’s not a bad game by any means and there is tons of fun to be had if you enjoy the gameplay but the combat is nothing we haven’t seen before and it lacks both a memorable storyline and characters.
