Had the game pre-ordered and was extremely finally keep "cool" it is a good Middle-earth game in his hands. After 5! Installation DVD's it was finally over and I could get going with me but because of my well-intentioned graphics settings to the NVIDIA kernel twice refused its office and I once again take care of the settings needed to get beyond the "Tutorial". Did the GTX 780 3GB of video memory and thought the externally available through Steam HD Texture Package also it belongs, which has not even been shown not as a must, but a mistake in hindsight. At least the game ran after downloading the said packages without crashing the video driver under full settings easily! Very good and into the game and was first struck by the huge game world: D. War in the first hour of play almost a bit too much of a good thing but you manage to slowly get an overview what is urgently needed as well. There are an unbelievable number of enemies, to discover things and already at the start will be a wealth of information heaped so a is quite dizzy. Please bring your time and craft pleasure, otherwise you have no joy at first game start ;-). After 3 hours, first conclusion: 1. Super atmosphere, great speakers and humorous texts 2. Hammer graphics which is stable with the right hardware and the optional HD-Pack and without any lag 3. Many details seduces to long hours in the first maps of the world Search and Find / test 4. At the beginning of blatant boss fights that are crisp and end victorious only with a lot of patience, just do not lose heart 5. Just this horny Lord of the Rings atmosphere with great background information and this wow factor in almost every section 6. Many many ways and an incredibly open game world that invites to always new moves To annoy 7. Great background music with the right intervals without
8. At almost every corner lurk very dangerous enemy that can bring about the Spielertod without great names which in turn causes the play quietly and slowly just at the beginning you should be frustrated not to fast 9. Strangely, no memory function, could select manually, the game stores but in the background permanently and prevents loss of successes
