    LOL!

    So... I'm taking it you didn't like it?  Come on... don't keep us in suspense! 

    I gotta admit though... your post did make me laugh.

    My advice......don't waste your time. MMO's are boring as hell.

    On the trial, you wont be able to trade with other players (to avoid muleing?) so dont expect to progress in crafting vocations that require mats from other people.

    LOL HAHA hehe LOL lmao !!! YOU got to be kidding right. Wow I'm damn glad i un-installed the game before I actually tried it.

     

    I'm all for restirction in trials but to make it impossible to even try crafting seems pretty dumb IMO. I've known people who only play for crafting so I guess they can go to hell when it comes TO LOTRO i guess huh.

    They where on disability hence could not handle the stress of intense combat.

    Umm... no. 

    Granted they won't be getting to Grand-Master in the crafting professions with the trial account, but they can still progress through enough of them to see if it is something that they will like or not.  So, in that respect the trial still works just fine for crafting.

    My verdict is coming beware



    Play at least too level 10 and create a monster for Monster Play and try the PvP before you wipe it off of your HD.

    I may subscribe for a month or two just so I have a fun RPG to jump into and finish some of the missions.   People keep going on about WAR and AoC which are very different games but lets face it they are at least 8 months off and then you can add another 3-6 months for tweaking.  Besides Vanguard has been terminated on my hdd.

    Hey OP, want to get that "Where the heck am i?" feeling?.... walk your way to rivendell from bree, u'll be gratefull if u see the sligth prescence of a path.

    Seriously, do not do it at lvl 10, it's a suicide because u'll get "oh! so lost", but u should try it eventually, actually if u keep playing u'll have to, but don't let anyone lead you there.

    I can guarentee you tha tu'll get lost quite a few time roaming around middle earth.

    Oh and if u like the exploring thing, try to do the exploration deeds, those are awesome.

    Quests will guide you trou the world, and will eventuly lead you the way were you need to be, if its correct you sould not be in Rivendell before level 40, unless you cant wait to explore , but i rather explore slowly all the way to 50 then , run by everything and then start the game...

    Playing: World of Warcraft.
