That's a good game!
I don't think Eomer was nerfed as much as some of the other characters. Gimli is a tool, Legolas a chick magnet. Aragorn can't control his brutality (see Mouth of Sauron deleted scene) and Faramir can't resist the power of the ring by what I remember. Frodo's too young, Pippin and Meriadoc were comic relief, Sam was 'sent home' by Gollum, Saruman has no power of the voice, Theoden looked wizened and altogether much too 'poisoned' ... I can go on for years here people!
Anyway, Eomer didn't have it too bad in perspective, though he probably should have been portrayed better in the Battle of the Pellenor fields. Let's just be thankful he's not too badly done by.
P.S. I actually quite like the films, don't get the wrong impression.
