How can I skip the intro videos?

In Shadow of Mordor, is there a way to skip the intro videos?

They are quite a lot of them and they are unskippable. I started the game and counted about 6 of them.

  3. Navigate further into the game's subdirectory \ShadowOfMordor\game\interface\videos\
  4. Delete the files I have highlighted in blue in the following screenshot or move them to another directory as a backup. Do not touch any other files.

NOTES/DISCLAMERS

  • Please note, this does delete some files from your computer. If you wish to be able to bring back those intros, please think of cutting them into a safe location rather than deleting them entirely. Using "Verify Game Cache can also work well
  • To restore the intros, simply paste the deleted files back into the directory from your backup. Alternatively, run "Verify Game Cache" from Steam
