Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor takes place between the events of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, the player will be taking the role of a Ranger that goes by the name of Talion and uses Wraith-like abilities.

The system remembers the player’s interactions with NPCs and adjusts the way they react throughout the game.
