Ejoyable Hack'n'Slay with strong license, which is fun, especially in multiplayer mode.

Fancy a simple but Distractions Hack'n'Slay in The Lord Rings universe? Fancy Koop with two friends? Then look no further and buys you Lord of the Rings: War in the North. Here you get a very solid action RPG with fun battles, solid character development and good prey system. The fighting had indeed may be a total of more varied, however, as long as the loot and experience true that one gets when Umholzen the opponent, I'm satisfied. Those who enjoy clumsy massacre, steady character-improving and collecting equipment, comes here fully at its expense. Schön is the fact that, like in Dungeon Siege 3, divulge numerous dialogues much background information on the game world and story of The Lord of the Rings - of course purely optional. Who does not want to drivel, can these seemingly escalating conversations simply skip or skim in fast forward.
