Shadow of Mordor

I've only recently remembered that I even had this and thought I should use it to, y'know, get the feels out.

I'm pissed. Seriously pissed.
I am 8 hours away from sitting my Social Science graded unit (that big exam that determines whether I get to stay in education for the next year) so, naturally, I've been playing video games all night long while staring at my study materials and wondering why it's not just all in my head yet.


I started Shadow of Mordor when it was first released. Then I got a wee bit obsessed with all things Dragon Age and it was pushed to the back burner. Dragon Age, seriously, if you like games and love yourself, get involved with this.
Anyway, I loved Shadow of Morder when I first started it. Granted, it's very similar to Assassin's Creed and, well, I love the AC franchise more than almost anything, so I was pretty much guaranteed to love Shadow of Mordor. And I did... For a while.

Well, I loved it right up until the end.

Because, what the fuck was that ending?
There's nothing to be done.
Fight off a horde, climb the Gate, then hit a series of prompts.

Just so disappointed right now.
