I still cannot believe the insane paradox of a game that is shadow of war.

When it was being developed, WB bet everything on it being a breathtaking grand game, where you would spend a bag on microtransactions thanks to good ganeplay and breathtaking world.

But, when the game was released, it flopped monumentally, thanks to the insult of begging in a SP game. That killed off the series completely. After a while, WB just removed the shop and.... It is now an amazing game with a huge scale, that SP games of that era never had. But, it will never get the money back, because on initial release, it felt insulting.

So, the thing that financed the game killed any chance of the profit, but when it was removed, it was still never judged as the amazing game, since the launch window was gone.

What a fucking shame. If you never gave it a chance before, just buy the entire series now, while it's on sale. They are undoubtedly the best Lotr games on the market.
