This game is one of the best games I've played. The main reason for being so good for me is immersion. I mean, this game is immersive as it can get in Tolkien universe, orcs are diverse, some of them are funny, some of them are terrifying and some are gritty, story is good (I know it is not 100% according to books but still) combat is satisfying, attacking/defending forts is really the most immersive part of the game and it's fun. There are some drawbacks, for instance when your character jumps/climbs in other way than you wanted or some little bugs here and there, but still for me this game is overwhelmingly good. This is one of the brightest examples of how should Tolkien games be made.
