History Funny / MiddleEarthShadowOfWar

* A deranged "Dwarf-hater" gains the hate trigger "Enraged by Dwarves" and believe Talion is a dwarf. There are no actual dwarves in the entire game, meaning that the devs created an unique rage trigger that exists only as a joke.

* The developers seem to be [[AscendedMeme aware]] of the [[UnfortunateName unfortunate Uruk names]] from the last game, because they've added more. Along with fan-favorites Dûsh and Kâka, we now have [[FunWithAcronyms Fûbar, Snâfu]], Bork, and more. And yes, the names are still voiced like always.

* [[spoiler:After capturing Lithlad's fort, Serka suggests several titles to Baranor. including "[[EmbarassingNickname Baranor the Man-bird"]]. Baranor actually likes "Baranor the Conqueror".]]
* Torvin reveals a big twist at the end... [[spoiler:The Rumbler, a were-wyrm the size of as skyscraper, is a girl. [[NoodleIncident He checked.]]]]

-->'''After being Dominated:''' "Moon biscuits!"

** So it's ''literally'' InsaneTrollLogic?
** The funny thing is [[spoiler: Come Act 4, this Olog might not be wrong with some of his statements.]]

* A Olog with the title of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7__gmmewxw "the Suspicious"]] will think all of his battles with Talion are just tests, set up by the Nazguls no less.

* A Olog with the title of "the Suspicious" will think all of his battles with Talion are just tests, set up by the Nazguls no less.

* "The Fall" shows us that the Nazgûl can be surprisingly emotive for beings without visible faces. The three Nazgûl present when Talion finally falls over after Eltariel "killed" him seem to just go "Well shrakh, there he goes", and you can practically see Sûladan roll his non-existant eyes when she easily dodges Eltariel's attack later.

* On occasion, an Overlord who's keep you've harassed will [[ProperlyParanoid execute likely spies when you start a siege]]...[[SubvertedTrope except sometimes]], [[WrongGenreSavvy they get the wrong spy]]. Your Assault Leaders will be struggling to keep a straight face. Or worse, you never had a spy at all, in which case they'll be ''completely flummoxed'', throwing their bloodlust aside to point out they never put anyone here and have no actual idea who the hell just got executed.

* On occasion, an Overlord who's keep you've harassed will [[ProperlyParanoid execute likely spies when you start a siege]]...[[SubvertedTrope except sometimes]], [[WrongGenreSavvy you didn't put in a spy at all]]. Your Assault Leaders will be struggling to keep a straight face.

** [[HilariousInHindsight During a livestream just a few days before the update launched, someone in chat jokingly suggested a "free beards DLC".]] The devs responded with a "[[ShrugOfGod No Comment]]". Now we technically we now have one.

* Due to the way the RNG works, orc and troll traits can produce some...interesting combinations. For example, it's possible to find an orc [[OneHitKill who's mortally vulnerable to caragor attacks]]...and [[TooDumbToLive is enraged by caragors]], and leads a group of caragor riders into battle.

* Occasionally when recruiting a Captain or Warchief, [[GoodBadBugs the game will forget to give Celebrimbor a line of dialogue,]] resulting in [[{{Beat}} about ten seconds of him]] wordlessly [[DeathGlare Death Glaring]] the poor Uruk into submission.
** [[spoiler: Talion doesn't have his own domination lines when he's on his own in Act 4, so every time he recruits an Uruk, it's with nothing more than a grunt. Sometimes followed by the recruit pledging to serve the Bright Lord... who no longer exists, and [[WeUsedToBeFriends wouldn't be on good terms with Talion even if he still did.]]]]

* The Digger will state that no orc likes ghuls..."except Ghul-Lover. He's a weirdo."

* Another Uruk Captain Title is "The Inscrutable". Think Mickey from ''Film/{{Snatch}}'' as an Orc, speaking so fast [[EvenTheSubtitlerIsStumped not even the subtitles can keep up]].

* The February 2017 update added expressions to photo mode. They range from "weird" to "ridiciluous", and are so over-the-top it's hard to take them seriously.

* Elteriel can overhear an orc declaring there are two kinds of Orcs in the world: those who do it for the killing, and those who do it for the power. Another Orc will pipe up, saying there are some Orcs who do it for the grog and meat. The first orc will sigh and mutter, "What do you have to be so difficult?"
