So come July 17th Shadow of War is getting a huge (free) patch that really improves on the game.
Besides improving specific parts about the game (ex: turning off saviors, reducing beast-slayers, higher XP cap, lines for dark talion, mirian dump via legendary training orders), I think this patch is proof of life for the game, showing they are going to keep updating it. It really sucks that this game was so stunted by a media reaction to retarded $$$ shop, I'm sure the budget for continuation of the game would've been much, much higher if they just had cloaks and skins in a cash shop.
I'm planning on doing a fresh playthrough. I guess there's a way to use cheat engine to make custom orcs, so I'll find a way to bring back my buddy, Az-Laar the Destroyer. I wonder if I have a savegame with him in it...
