That intro movie is such a rip off of LotR. I know all rpg's steal from LotR but that video was just helms deep with tacky versions of duels such as sauron vs elendil, ringwraith vs gandalf, dwarf vs troll etc. The art was even copied from LotR film.
Anyhow this game looks tird IMO. I like geeky things but grown men playing with little model goblins is just too far. And the game just looks soooo tacky. just lots of goblins with big weapons repeatively growling (sounds so laughably lame) hacking at each other will no visble purpose or plot.
So dull.

This is the most weird post I've ever received in any post... I seriously dunno how to reply to it lol

Great videos! After watching some of them I had to ask myself one question: Is Paul Barnett a real human? Is he flesh and bones like the rest of us, or is he simply a figment of our (the gamers) colective imagination and a subcontious projection of desires of how a game studio and it's staff should be trearing it's potential customers? Think about it...

Until then, Cheerz!

You could say...

"I really hope that you were joking on account of it being April fools today, if you were not, I sincerely hope you don't have children"

EDIT: Great thread btw, this is a great way for newcomers to find out about the game /salute

my god lotro fanboi's are savage, they seem to be on every game forum bashing that game and hailing lotr the best mmo ever (ive played the beta and it quite clearly is not)....what i dont understand is, if lotr is so good why are they on other game forums bashing a game when they could be playing lotr.

draconir

well if you check the first post in this thread you can look at about the bottom of it. It shows a link that takes you to the official site (warhammeronline.com) where you must subscribe for monthly newsletter.



It's the only way I know so far that adds a small (or almost non-existant) chance of getting into the beta.

Very nice collection, good job!



I've watched about 1/2 of the videos posted but I didn't get the answer to something I'm wondering about.

What if a race is totally overpowered and claims all the zones over and over?

That wouldn't be fun at all.

How are they going to solve that? did they talk about this in any of the videos I missed or?

Awsome
