Over 1500 pit fights to get all of these. Was holding for Outlaw to be out to have them all in one compliation. I love the work that Monolith's animation team did with these, altough some have missing sounds and whatnot, but they are very satisfying to watch.

If we get a sequel, I’d love to see some new classes for orcs and ologs. Maybe a brawler type that has gauntlets and fights with punches and kicks maybe and also a class that uses a double handed weapon like a great sword, war hammer or a battle axe

[@julispears4949]

Plus some more olog executions and special classes for ologs specifically, they have things like tremor, harpoons and fire throwers, but those are just traits instead of different enemy types. Also for your brawler idea, they could not be affected by The counter upgrades that stun or insta kill them and talion does a sort of dodge animation and they're noticable more nimble than Most uruks, making them run and attack quicker, and give them a lunge, but obviously tone down the damage.

It was. Getting the base-game 70 took me a week and a half of pit fights. The ones that require an Uruk to be behind the other one, or the one getting killed knocked down on the ground were very rare in the pits. In the open world, you can just grab and throw someone and hope a follower does the animation.

I think the Savages have the coolest animations out of all the classes. I think 6:20, 7:09, and 7:30 are probably my top 3 :). Love the sound effect that you hear when the weapons get swung too. But honestly almost all the Uruks executing Olog animations are pretty neat :).

[@Crimson_Sun2486]

Kinda wish we could have tribe themed executions with Ologs, both in them having tribe executions of their own and getting killed by said tribe executions. For example, an Olog from the Mystic tribe could get a second enchanted mace that drains the life from his enemy as he's beating them to death with it. And an Olog getting killed by a Mystic execution could see the Mystic take out their Morgul Blade and teleporting around the Olog as he tries to hit them with his mace, only for the Mystic to warp onto his head and slice his throat with the blade like the typical Mystic execution.

[@n3rf0r30]

13:53 oh shrakh he gears of war curb stomped him

[@beauparsons6097]

13:11 is my favorite because of the terror of being the victim. Your opponent is more of a match than you thought, you make one last strike just too see if it can kill him, but deep done you know it won’t. He sweeps your legs with his mace, knowing this is the end you pray it’s quick, you know it won’t be. Then he ties his mace around your neck, choking you reach out for anything, he pulls tighter and tighter until your head comes clean off. Also because it’s the 69th :p.

[@shadowninja1059]

[@Rildar]

I agree, but those are in fact bolas, not a mace. Orcs can throw bolas to briefly trap other orcs or yourself in place to get a few easy hits, plus that decapitation from pure tension is just absolutely brutal.

[@philbuttler3427]

This game is on par with Elden Ring and Breath of the Wild in the list of best open world games. The Nemesis System gets the praise it deserves but i stand by the way they designed the overall maps and Talion's kit means you have near limitless ways to approach situations that works perfectly with the Nemesis system to create this ebb and flow of unpredictable gameplay where you're rewarded as much for your quick thinking and adaptability as you are planning and thinking ahead. Once you've fully come to grips with mastering that balance it's immensely satisfying, and feels like you've earned how badass you feel in a way no other game has captured the same way.
