I bought both Shadow of Mordor, and this game recently. I walked in blind, I finished Mordor, and then started this up, and heard this. I was like “Holy shit, here we go!!!”
my dad had these since they came out but just replayed som, so i followed him and did the same. i loved it and now im having a lotr phase and want to rewatch all the movies and the hobbit again, currently playing sow. i love it all sm :')))
@@yesididitverywell is it confirmed that its over tho ? we still have stories to cotinue for other characters like the elf lady. that could lead to a sick third game where we play as the elf and take over talions role in fighting off a final evil force in mordor. OR EVEN could go back in time to celebrimbors original era before he died. But there wouldn't be branding orcs in that so not sure about that one
the shadow of mordor theme/the gravewalker is so depressing and conducts feelings of anger and revenge, very epic. and then the shadow of war theme really makes it feel like you're more at peace but still hopeful and willing to fight for whatever's coming, ready to conquer any in your way. i really like the difference in both themes, they're great and perfect for both games. Very fitting for how each game progresses
if steam can counts how many hours you spend in this game, instead of counting hours played, now i would have an extra thousand hours, just stay in the menu to listen to this song
Monolith Studios literally has a great potential to create Greatest Games. The fluidity in shadow of war gameplay is enormous. Everything they had designed Will Make You Sit Infront Of It For Hours.
GUYS someone found out how to mod this game. SPREAD THE WORD! maybe one day there will be large modding community? playable sauron? who knows, only time will tell
I never played this game. I always start it up to play and can never find it in my heart to cancel this music and proceed. I stay in the loading menu. I always have.
Sheesh man If I were gearing up to go to actual war where I knew I was taking a chance with my life THIS WOULD BE THE SONG I'd play in the armory room while getting ready for potential death.
This made me cry....not selling this game for almost 3 years ......this is just not possible for me to sell this how much i was enjoyed its just another feeling 2017 and 2014 was the best year for shadow of war and mordor ......i love this not forgivable 🎉❤
I think we have a habit of associating music with the games we hear it in. I absolutely loved playing Shadow of War and I think hearing this music whenever I started the game up or paused or wherever you hear it, just kind of mixed them together for me. I'm not saying this is the only reason you like the music from your favorite games, but I'm sure it's a contributing factor to it.
@@RetroDeathReviews666 Better than the Hobbit series by a large merit. Childish Bilbo aka the most boring character. LOTR is slightly more epic though I agree it's the Bible of fantasy. This is the closest thing to it though and it's so faithful and cool despite being non-canon. Can't say the same for the trainwreck that is Rings Of Power. It's so overrated. Easily two of the best adventure/fantasy/sci-fi RPGs ever Shadow of Mordor and Shadow Of War.
@4314390 not sure how you found Bilbo childish in any way. He was extremely brave and courageous and took depths that even the dwarves were too scared to do. LOTR is my favorite but I like the hobbit almost as much, despite some little issues and changes the movies suffered from. Cringe of Power is a disgrace to everything tolkien related. This game and both movie trilogies are pretty much incomparible. Such a shame. There was so much potential too! The second age would have been incredible to see properly on screen.

When I first started up this game, it literally took me a while to actually start it because I was instantly hooked on this music at the menu.
I did that same thing today when i replayed it. I had forgotten the score, but boy did it come back to me. Chills!
same here bro
Same
EXACTLY SAME
U can feel talions pain and determination thru this ost

@@phroggy1994 honestly o like the og one just bc I was like 6 when I played it
@@goosemansheshe2473 my dad didnt let me play them lol but because i watched him play some parts i got roped into it
This theme is so epic. I love the whole game, literally keeps me entire nights up playing this game lol
Same lol I really hope they make another similar game in the future, even though this specific series is over

@@Ben-zh4nz I’m pretty sure WB lost the rights to LoTR content a while ago so no.
This game is pure legend and deep inside my heart I will not ever forget this game
Their will never come a nieuw game the dev dead of cancer (may he rest in peace)
After 3 years of not playing this game and hearing it again makes me cry of all the memorys i had and i am playing again.
saaaaame haha
My god the beginning is literally the best part
FR
reminds of endless battles and sieges...
This game had such a damn good menu theme
i always wonder why no one talks about this game anymore.. it’s simply a masterpiece
It's too sacred to speak of. We can't risk it being defiled by the rings of power fans.

This is the shadow of war theme
@@theaveragecrusader16 i know
@@phroggy1994 then why did you phrase it like it wasn’t
@@theaveragecrusader16 i didnt?? I was comparing the two vibes and how it correlates w the story lol
@@phroggy1994 yeah you said “the shadow of war theme” then you said “and this theme” like they’re two different themes
HOW IS THIS MUSIC NOT ON SPOTIFY!!😭😭
if steam can counts how many hours you spend in this game, instead of counting hours played, now i would have an extra thousand hours, just stay in the menu to listen to this song
Gives you nostalgic vibes for some reason and makes you feel so good while listening to it,
great soundtrack i love it
Better when u replay it After few year of stop... Made me cry
the menu music of this game had no business going this hard
This soundtrack on its own is already amazing, but as soon as you get to Fires of War, this becomes so much more meaningful.
By me this wave of games is absolutely wonderfull.
Batman arkham games, Middle earth games and mad max the game should never be forgoten
Got an 5 on a exam after listening to thise while studying.❤
It only today occurred to me that this is great background music for a starting soon or brb screen of a SoW stream.
5 years of this game, and I've been with it for an unforgetable year. Ready for another.
This is such a great series. I loved Talion's character so much he was unique and memorable. Awesome to see Sauron as well not just in his dark form.
The is a top 3 game all time on MY list. This game will always have a special place in my heart. R.I.P Tailon and his family!!!
Man this menu music is epic I will hear this every day! WE ARE THE LEGAND AND DOWNLOAD SHADOW OF WARS THIS GAME IS FRICKING ROCKEST GAME EVER
Monolith Studios literally has a great potential to create Greatest Games. The fluidity in shadow of war gameplay is enormous. Everything they had designed Will Make You Sit Infront Of It For Hours.
Holy shit
both games have such different styles but they're both executed so fucking well
When I heard this on the main menu, I knew I was gonna love this game.
And boy, was I right.
I love gaming SOW while listening to this, It makes me undefeatable for some reason
"SO SWEET- SO SWEET- SO SWEETY SWEET SWEET"
Kugoth THe sweet when asked to comment about this music.
1:11 - 148 Duuuude this whole section is soo fucking good lol it's so beautiful! God this game is so great.
Just bought shadow of war on steam after beating mordor a few months back. I'm hyped to play it.
how you liking the game so far?
@@theguy3129 Its really cool.
GUYS someone found out how to mod this game. SPREAD THE WORD! maybe one day there will be large modding community? playable sauron? who knows, only time will tell
This is fucking gold, shadow of war will most definitely remain one of my favorite games.
Ik a few hours of my playtime in this game was just me listening to the music
This just mellows me out at the end of the day
this soundtrack sounds so deep, one of the best i came across in a game. game is worth it just to hear this
This music gives me the strength to go forward in life even in the most difficult moments. I'm glad I can listen to this masterpiece.
Nothing will be forgotten .
Absolutely epic, didn’t want to play the game so I could just listen to the music,
honestly the middle earth games are some of my favorite within one of my favorite fictional worlds
Thank you for this! It's what the world needed! Lol. Seriously though!
been playing this game for many years im glad you made this much love! ♥
I know it's great, I just started my first playthrough on Gravewalker difficulty and it hits differently.
For some reason i just wanna cry i love this game soo much and just started playing it again
gotta be one of the best menu themes, up there with the one in brigador. does exactly what its supposed to
It is not done, not yet. I will see it through.
❤❤
You're a SAINT 🙏
Shadow of War is the GOAT
I never played this game. I always start it up to play and can never find it in my heart to cancel this music and proceed. I stay in the loading menu. I always have.
Thank you for this
Sure thing man
The theme was like the lotr trilogy itself, epic
I need this with an ambiance pls. It will sound epic
I wait for the drop 3:39 Before playing
Nan iChir Gelair Mordor!
Sheesh man If I were gearing up to go to actual war where I knew I was taking a chance with my life THIS WOULD BE THE SONG I'd play in the armory room while getting ready for potential death.
Real
Amazing music
Deff looking to sample this into a beat I can rap on

This made me cry....not selling this game for almost 3 years ......this is just not possible for me to sell this how much i was enjoyed its just another feeling 2017 and 2014 was the best year for shadow of war and mordor ......i love this not forgivable 🎉❤

This is iconic
How come every game I have, has the most awesome main menu music.

1h still too short! Lol
Im listening for the third time already while in work.
The best fighting game ever
My boy Talion didn't deserve this...
aye
This is fire except for a little spoiler near the end
Maybe tomorrow will be better
Why I cannot find this on YT Music?
Awesome Game
Better than any movie
Not the LOTR/Hobbit movies :P

Make games like this again
Divine scandinavian themed song...
A music should not be this good in some random place on metaverse.
Love the game but the music vibe does not fit the game. The game is a dark struggle for power, the music reminds me of black flag.
They need to put this on Spotify🥹
Everything about this game is pure genius magic. It will be a long time before anything comes close to how perfect this game was.
