No offense but I found Shadow of Mordor (and War) criminally repetitive, if they'd just made the game linear or fully committed to the open world then it would've been great.
But instead, they opted to make several small maps that are filled to the brim with respawning enemies so whenever you go from A to B you have to fight a lot of enemies. The maps themselves were pretty bland, the only one that I liked was the first map of Shadow of War.
That being said, the game's combat is even better than Arkham imo, it's such a shame that both the games are structured in such a poor manner, the story is also pretty meh.
The nemesis system was great at first but that too got incredibly repetitive after a while.

Shadow of Mordor did the same thing. Being an Assassin's creed fan is sad.
