why couldn't Talion stay with Morrowind and her people? also isn't it strange that they sued words from Skyrim in this game from Morrowwind to Silverhand. and why doesn't that Dwarf have a beard like Gimli?
Yeah in terms of revenge plots, few things ever got my blood boiling than watching the opening cutscene. Seeing Talions family die the way they did is really horrific and....like I said before.....gets your blood boiling. Any person with a shred of empathy will rally behind Talion's motivations in an instant. It's part of what makes this games story so well done for people from beginning to end.
@@Mohs_play0009 He could be talking about the fact that the main villain (in this case, Sauron) is the big tough guy that everyone fears and works for, but is only talked about and doesn’t get to show up very often. They only appear briefly in cutscenes, and sometimes gets one fight at the end of the game with you. In other words: The main villain everyone likes barely shows up for screen time.
Yeah, I think it's unsettlingly accurate for how Celebrimbor views Tallion. Even after all they go through, Tallion is still basically just seen as Celebrimbor's live-in servant.
@@kanyenorth2605you're both off Talion and Celebrimbor are much more aligned in this game and work through their differences. The second game disregards A LOT to create that forced "Betrayal" plot. By making Talion so argumentative to the point I can't blame Celebrimbor for ditching him. Compare the end of this game to the start of the next their dynamic is shot in the head on sight.
You know rewatching this especially towards the end it’s sad how talion and celebrimbors relationship ended. It truly felt like there was respect there but in the end it turned into hatred. Really sad
@@santana9434 it makes more sense when you realize that Celebrimbor is from a cursed bloodline, given that he was the last one who carried Feanor's blood
I really have to give you a sub for this. It must take a lot of time to play the game once to see how it is, again to get everything right, and again to record the process. That's nothing to say of the editing process. Good work, guys behind Gamer's Little Playground! Hope it can become a big playground soon.
Then why'd you get married in the first place? Now you're just a slave to debt and the system. I hope you don't get divorced. She'll clean you out with child support and alimony. It'll cost $50,000 grand simply for "school supplies".
Best part of Shadow of War is the bit where Talion first challenges the Nine, it transitions from cutscene to gameplay and keeps all the same action, especially when you need to deflect every attack all at once.
I love how the balance between light and evil are entertained. The dark lord being the embodiment of pure evil. The bright lord being the embodiment of light and purity NO MATTER the cost. Extremes on both ends of the spectrum.
Am I seing backwards, or does Talion look better in this game compared to "Shadow Of War"? In "Shadow Of War" Talion really has no controll over his emotions.
Talion fought for decades alone possessed by a wraith and under the influence of the ring of power. He was simply broken. But remains a hero in the heart.
5:28 ... setting aside the fact that they totally butchered the character of Celebrimbor, Sauron is right here. Celebrimbor is pretty evil in this game. 20:55 ... " _A curse binds us together within the walls of Arda_ " - implying that without the curse, Celebrimbor's soul would've escaped Arda. But one of the ubiquitous facts from canon is that Elves' souls are bound to Arda by default (when their bodies die, their souls go to the Halls of Mandos and after a span of time determined by their "Karma", are reborn into new bodies, in Valinor). Another example of the hack scriptwriters butchering the lore. Almost as if they didn't even bother to go through the source material before making a AAA game from it. 21:20 ... They turned the One Ring incantation in Black Speech, into a soundtrack and ngl, it does sound surprisingly good. Very badass and Metal.
@@ChrisBear1989 Those aren't small adjustments. Those are taking the very basics of Tolkien's worldbuilding and throwing them down the gutter. It's LoTR inspired at this point, not lotR.
I think he was talking more about the curse binding the two of them together, sense it’s implied Celebrimbor had been a wraith sense death which is why he forgot everything.
This will sound very odd.....but thank you for creating this. It's been how I get to sleep for the last few years, and it's been so nice finally sleeping consistently
in the Lore, Celembrimbor was tortured and impaled, after that his flailing body was used as a banner for the forces of Mordor. gruesome shit, no wonder he is so pissed in the game 🤣
Middle-Earth: Shadow ov Mordor: Play for the story Middle-Earth: Shadow ov War: play for endless years farming grinding resisting the Ring.... *ON YOUR KNEES*
Looking at this now, Celebrimbor could've just worked with Talion to construct a new ring for Gollum and the whole part later on where he betrays Frodo & Sam never would've happened. Something with a few dozen Orc souls and probably the boubles of a dead Dwarf, sprinkle a bit of Elf magic with that old hammer of his “and Bob's your uncle”. In fact, the newer ring could've probably helped Gollum regain more of his Smeagol. And as much as I love the monsters wildlife in these games, I don't get how none of them exist in the greater lore. Or how we don't see anymore Dwarves or Elves except the Hunter guy and the Blade of Galadriel. I feel like if there was a 3rd game there's be a human wizard or something. It would've been nicer to possess some of those men from the Dessert instead of All Orcs. Celebrimbor even had tombs built to honor his most loyal brainwashed Orcs. Which makes me wonder how that could be considering their skill loyalty is only measured due to said brainwashing and not being dead sooner. And it's not like they were still loyal after he died either, we saw that Sauron broke the Elf Lord's control when in close proximity to his Marked Orc soldiers.
Even a ring like that could have unintended consequence. I think that's the whole point, no matter what, these rings corrupt the bearer. Even the "new" ring from shadow of war brought out the worst in Celebrimbor. He went from wanting to pass into the afterlife at the end of SoM, to wanting to dominate Sauron and conquer Middle Earth towards the end of SoW. No ring can exist without bringing evil, as I think was Tolkien's sentiment in the books. Besides this, Gollum clearly only wanted the One ring. None of the others would satisfy him, so its doubtful that a vastly inferior one would do anything but make him even more inclined to pursue the One.
@@gsus458 So you're saying that by coming in contact with the 1st Ring of Power, that someone is potentially corrupted forever? That even with another one in their possession like the one Talion got from Isildur after releasing him, that they're tempted to basically turn towards evil because of the first Ring or because they're All potentially bad? Because The Elf Assassin had a Ring either gifted to her by Lady Galadriel made by the Elves or the one that Sauron gave to them when he was originally making his play to dominate Middle-Earth.
@@trailblazerlazerrazerd9027 Thats precisely what I'm saying. You've seen Gollum, right? I dont think theres any better living (well, dead) proof that the One ring permanently corrupts. I think it has to do with the inherent process of creating them. They are marred with the shadow of darkness from the moment they are created. The shadow of war basically confirmed this: that despite Celebrimbor claiming the the new ring wasn't under the influence of Sauron, it didn't change the fact that the ring only made Celebrimbor as powerhungry as Sauron ever was. Shelob, who has the gift of sight, confirmed that by seeing what Celebrimbor would become. The One ring, and by extension, any of the rings will always eventually bring out the worst in people, as has been proven time and time again by the books. My headcannon is that this is because of the magic involved in their crafting, the requirements to create the rings have inherently evil qualities that can't be dismissed if one tries to create a ring of power. I dont know if you finished the shadow wars in SoW, but even your own example involving Isildurs ring proves my point. Tallion fell to darkness eventually too, 60 years after putting on Isildurs ring
@@gsus458 Very true, most of the Rings of Power permanently corrupt, the only ones that could be argued are the three Elven Rings. Cause Celebrimbor makes those by himself meaning they are free from evil, Gandalf, Galadriel and Elrond (who own the Elven Rings) are always shown to be powerful, yet good, and never corrupted any of them, versus say the nine rings for Men turned them into the Nazgul, or the Dwarven Rings make the wearers more greedy. And like you said, we already see what happens to people (who aren't Sauron) that posses the One.
I've played both games all the way through before watching this. And in War, even though a couple of the followers I gained turned on me, they actually rejoined me.
Throughout all the corruptions of Uruk or anyone else: “I see you!” “You will obey!” “You are mine!” Celebrimbor’s voice is so powerful and commanding!
It's definitely worth playing honestly, I have the game of the year edition on my Xbox One beat it, bought the gold edition of shadow of War at GameStop new for $20, so worth it, the dlc, missions, storylines, weapons, everything is amazing, u should definitely check out these 2 games, they r one amazingly well done story! 😃
Story in shadow of Mordor is clean and war has some dirt on it in terms of accuracy to tolcin’s books (sorry if the name is wrong) but has much batter game play especially with orks domination and how the nemesis system works
I think it was a mistake to try and show all the cutscenes in chronological order rather than the order they were presented to the player. Many great moments are lost because you had knowledge you shouldn't have had yet or you didn't have knowledge you should have had. For instance, Celebrimbor's reveal of duplicitousness is gradual. The final line of the Bright Lord DLC "Finally... all will fear me and rejoice" as it leads into the base game is such a great ending that shows Celebrimbor for who he truly always was... and you have it within the first 10 minutes.
I love this game dude, it’s for people who have good timing and can think quickly which is what can make it challenging, shadow of war was way easier to play, it was good as well, felt more lively I guess, but shadow of Mordor is just a masterpiece, instead of having an army at your side every time you need it, you do everything on your own and it looks sick while you do it
I want to see a third game it’s be really nice to see celebrimbor or talion Ik that’s not possible since he passed on but it’d be nice to see the both of them again
If it remains as untruthful to Tolkiens Legendarium... i sure hope it never becomes a netflix series. Unless they disclaimer it will be a movie based on the game alone lol
Thanks for the vid mate, i never could finish that game on PC (during the mission where you escape the cave with the Ghouls after slaying a special ghoul for the first time, my game shut down, try 4-5 times, still happening at the exact same time, i uninstall the game, unfortunately since i really enjoyed playing it) so i'm glad i can see the story to try the next one
53:15 Get it? Because it's the line, from the movie, from the first movie? The one where Gandalf dies? Where he says that right before dying? He says that line, to frodo, before he falls? Get it? Get the reference?
In reality Talion is a vessel, one Celebrimbor can leave at anytime He had no intention to simply return to death, he had long been corrupted by Sauron to conquer and dominate as the Bright Lord If you by now seen the sequel game then you can see hoe true that is by game’s end
1:33 "My family is in chains..." Um...Celebrimbor, your father's dead, 5 of your uncles are dead, one is missing, your grandfather is dead...what do you mean by family is in chains? Guess he's speaking for Elvenkind in general :)
@DogZzA man, it sure is shame that when Celebrimbor, in the game, talks about his family being in chains because, in the game, he has a family, and they're in chains, but outside the game he doesn't soooo... I'm fully aware that the Middle-Earth games aren't exactly lore friendly, but both these comments about Celebrimbor not having a family are dumb. He has one in the games, no one really cares if it's lore friendly or not. Just enjoy them for what they are. Damn.
@DogZzA That's fair. I've just seen so many complaints about the game not being lore friendly, and it gets old very fast. Wasn't trying to imply that you didn't like the game, just that complaining about lore in an otherwise fantastic series is silly.

in the Lore, Celembrimbor was tortured and impaled, after that his flailing body was used as a banner for the forces of Mordor. gruesome shit, no wonder he is so pissed in the game 🤣
In the Lore he wasn't captured to finish the one ring, he was captured to disclose the location of the three elven rings, which he never did
he was dead by the time the whole banner of war thing happened
Well he was then recaptured likely for that reason but after he did not spill the beans he wa skilled and became a wraith

Zavi Aman It will be soon
Zavi Aman Heh
I have seen its trailer :D
Zavi Aman shadow Of War
I have never got any doubt about the sequel! Magnificant game
Never seen that beginning part before. Is that part of the Bright Lord DLC?
anthony sunseri yes
That was a quick pivot from Talion wanting to pass over to, let's make a new Ring of Power and wreck stuff.
I want to see a third game it’s be really nice to see celebrimbor or talion Ik that’s not possible since he passed on but it’d be nice to see the both of them again
Etarial the elf would be a nice touch celebrimbor rallies the remaining orks together to build. Anew army before Gondor takes them donw
Can you do Valiant hearts the Great War after this. There's only one guy who has done that game but the audio is messed up
Isolation 117 I'm gonna check out the game, haven't played it yet
Sick intro BTW!
Gabi-Online Plus its old :3
Played this for the 1st time awhile back and I was NOT disappointed at all.. Hopefully this will turn into a great Netflix show like The Witcher
If it remains as untruthful to Tolkiens Legendarium... i sure hope it never becomes a netflix series. Unless they disclaimer it will be a movie based on the game alone lol
@@Makkaru112 hello there from the future, new series are untruthful and disrespectful to Tolkiens Legendarium
Lol this aged poorly
1:05:25
Thanks for the vid mate, i never could finish that game on PC (during the mission where you escape the cave with the Ghouls after slaying a special ghoul for the first time, my game shut down, try 4-5 times, still happening at the exact same time, i uninstall the game, unfortunately since i really enjoyed playing it) so i'm glad i can see the story to try the next one
Had to see this video to understand the quote "You are banished from death"
0:00 galadriel saved you hours of gameplay..with this and the sequel.
5:46
Tumhom is so freaking flamboyant. I like him.
Did you deepen the voices to avoid the copyright filter?
MelkorHimself Yeah had to =(. Wasn't because of the voices, but the ambient background music. But yeah, had to do it to the whole vid.
better that way, more epic!
53:15 Get it? Because it's the line, from the movie, from the first movie? The one where Gandalf dies? Where he says that right before dying? He says that line, to frodo, before he falls? Get it? Get the reference?
No
Fly you fools?
this should be the next movie for lord of the rings
Hour and 20 into the story with only 4 elf-shot?!?!?!?!?!?!
i am learning a lot about this video
nice editing , good job !
Ahhh I miss this game..
Ratbag had me chuckling... Such derp, such wow.
This is so well structured!
If he can't leave Mordor before the ring is undone. Why can he, when the black hand is dead. That is not the ring??
BestandFirst he can't...he fought all the black captains in mordor and black hand died on the black gate i believe
In reality Talion is a vessel, one Celebrimbor can leave at anytime
He had no intention to simply return to death, he had long been corrupted by Sauron to conquer and dominate as the Bright Lord
If you by now seen the sequel game then you can see hoe true that is by game’s end
I haven't played the game, but was that snowy mountain at the beginning after the ring fell off Celebrimbor's finger Mt. Doom?
Is this from DLC. My game began with Story of Talion and didn't have any of Celebrimbo part where he fights Sauron?
Love the way u make these cutscenes movies, way better than IZUNYs
For the moment I thought that broken blade was the blade that the elves fixed for Aragon
It was his son's blade. It upset me that you didnt get a MENTION of Talion's family in the second game
That Dwarf's Story was the best part :).
Did you know, Sauron is protected against all threats, physical and magical?
18:16 am I the only one who thinks that Uruk who’s holding Loreth suspiciously looks like ratbag?
I always find myself wondering how I will survive until August 22
Same here bro... Cannot wait for Shadow of War
Dude you're awesome at this
Thanks for sharing that was epic.
...its already been 2 years since i watched this games cut-scenes....feeling old... feeling Gundouf the Grey old
1:33 "My family is in chains..." Um...Celebrimbor, your father's dead, 5 of your uncles are dead, one is missing, your grandfather is dead...what do you mean by family is in chains? Guess he's speaking for Elvenkind in general :)
Guess its his... You know, wife and daughter, did you play the dlc? Let alone the game itself?
@DogZzA man, it sure is shame that when Celebrimbor, in the game, talks about his family being in chains because, in the game, he has a family, and they're in chains, but outside the game he doesn't soooo...
I'm fully aware that the Middle-Earth games aren't exactly lore friendly, but both these comments about Celebrimbor not having a family are dumb. He has one in the games, no one really cares if it's lore friendly or not. Just enjoy them for what they are. Damn.
@DogZzA That's fair. I've just seen so many complaints about the game not being lore friendly, and it gets old very fast. Wasn't trying to imply that you didn't like the game, just that complaining about lore in an otherwise fantastic series is silly.
