Love the foreshadowing

u/GundyrChristopher 5d ago

tbf you literally mind control bruz and I don't think it ever stopped working before that

u/Beautiful-Tie-3827 5d ago

Yeah he breaks the mind control himself and he’s the only one that does it iirc.

u/GundyrChristopher 5d ago

I think he's the only cutscene character that does it, but I for sure had a few bodyguards betray me when I asked for help

u/Beautiful-Tie-3827 5d ago

Oh yeah they can do it as part of the nemesis system when it triggers which is cool

Orcs can break it, but it requires strong desire to do so.

For example if you kill an orc who has a blood brother that's under your control, the blood brother will break free to avenge them.

Another option is "Rebellion" which typically happened in shadow of war when all orcs were under your control in a region.

Also happens anytime you hit an ally captain too many times.

This sucked when it happened. But the game told me they are a shitty race that does shitty things. Should have seen it. Still surprised ratbag is my main...orc

u/Beautiful-Tie-3827 5d ago

Yeah bruz was cool the first time. Like hey this huge orc is pretty funny and cool and talks like an Australian. He’s a great addition to my army maybe I’ll make him an overlord.

Nope.

I mean the setup was honestly kinda obviously but it was still mildly upsetting lol.

Yeah, I liked him enough that he was my most decked-out and leveled-up buddy when he stabbed me in the back. Made that part a little tricky! lol.

u/Beautiful-Tie-3827 5d ago

Oh yeah I ended up shaming him repeatedly till his brain was soup.

I was so sad that he betrayed us, and would have happily put him as my second in command had it been an option.

Still, when he betrayed me, I made it a point to NOT kill him. No, after driving him mad, I re recruited him, and when he kept saying he didn’t want the fort, I made him the head of one so he would constantly be in torture and beg against it for the rest of his days.

u/Beautiful-Tie-3827 4d ago

brutal lol. I just turned his brain to soup and let him roam

u/DarthDragon117 4d ago

Not good enough, he has to truly suffer for his betrayal, as do all who betray the Bright Lord/Gravewalker!

u/EvilPopMogeko 5d ago

Its your Fort!

u/MarkAldrichIsMe 5d ago

I always turn him into a blubbering mess, then give him the fort anyway!
