Monolith's Swan Song! Middle-earth: Shadow of War Review
Middle-earth: Shadow of War was Monolith’s last game, their piece de resistance, their swan song…you know, before Warner Bros. pulled the plug on the developer. This review aims not to criticize Warner Bros (mostly), but to honor the legacy of Monolith. We’ll be looking at what the game improved over Shadow of Mordor, the new and innovative additions, and some of the flaws those innovations came with.
If you are willing, join me as we bid farewell to Monolith and, most likely, the Middle-earth game series.
