Great game if you're new to RTS Lord of the Rings games, bad if you're not

I loved this game and was hyped about it before it came out, but when it was released and i picked it up i began to get bored by it. It might've been because i expected too much from it and constantly thought about it or it could've been because the gameplay is very similar, just more suited to rushing only which limits the strategy to the game very much.You can create a hero, but you'll soon find out that almost no one uses them because they're unbalanced and can easily turn the tide of who's winning or losing.Creating a hero is very limited is customization,such as powers, the look to the player ( which some of the parts of customizing doesn't work at all ) and other things. The multiplayer is good for a week or two but it would soon get too repetitive and boring. Even though the strategy part to the game is limited, the difficulty in multiplayer battles is hard, especially if you're a noob.
