WHY. IS. EVERYONE. SHOUTING? Blimey, this ring thing must be serious business or something. Warner Bros has released a new story trailer for Middle-earth: Shadow of War, and everyone in it either seems really angry or really smarmy. Guess that’s what happens when you're locked in battle over an unassuming piece of jewellery.

We really, really need a new format for trailers like this. Every single one - movies, games, it doesn't matter - is serious sounding music, little punchy lines of dialogue, cut to black, cut to black, cut to black, a sprinkling of action, some ominous words that mean bugger all, and then BAM! TITLE!
It's soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo tired.
This game looks good!
I feel like I'm in bizzarro world or something. I think this looks terrible but everyone seems to be hyped. Shrugs.
I wouldn't say it looks 'terrible' but I would say it looks quite 'average'. Considering how some trailers/games can look, the only thing it isn't shouting is 'Buy Me'!
Hmmm, I think I recall a similar story but with different characters.
Meh... not a fan of the twisted lore.
@get2sammyb I agree with you actually, very rough around the edges for me, the gameplay I saw looks varied but... incoherent and that's the whole vibe I am getting from this. I really liked SoM so want to like this but will definitely wait for reviews.
I wouldn'y say it looks terrible, the first game never looked decent in previews but when playing it looked much better, a little rough in some bits sure, I expect the same of this really.
I'll wait for the inevitable "complete edition" and price reduction before I get this though.
I'm actually playing through the first game right now and am enjoying it for the most part. I think the gameplay shown a few weeks ago was more interesting than this trailer for Shadow of War. I'll probably pick this up, I'm just not sure if I will wait until I get it for $10 with all of the extra content like I did with Shadow of Mordor.
@ShogunRok Don't forget all the inevitable pre-order bonus nonsense always at the end.
