question about quests

LeucentLeucent Member Posts: 2,371
in Lord of the Rings Online
Hi was wondering if someone without breaking any nda etc could tell me if the quests are a little more in depth then most games ie fed ex quests and kill x amout of y etc. I had enjoyed the quests and lore in AC1 and somewhat AC2 but am a little tired of the typical ones out there now. Just wondering if anyone could shed some light on this :)

    If you read around, I think you'll find that there are some 'Fed Ex' quests as you so stated, but the majority are supposed to be in depth and fun quests.

    Currently: Playing EVE Online
    Previous: FFXI, Dragonrealms, sad little stint in WOWland.
    Awaiting: Fallen Earth, Hero''s Journey, Tabula Rasa, Age of Conan.

    From what I understand this game will have a huge number and variety of quests like they should have called it Lord of the Quests. If you can finish all the quests you will never want to do another quest again. Ever.

    exactly i think quests will be one of the strongest points of LOTR. There will be lots of quests and many different kinds of quests.

    My name is Khal, and I endorse this comment.

    Seriously though, I hated those commercials, but I fully agree with Q here.

    I'd say that the quest density is about the same as WoW, but I'd also say Turbine has done a better job of tying you into the story and making the quests flow together. That was one thing Guild Wars excelled at, and I think LotRO has the same strength. With WoW, you had only a tiny helping of quest lines (like dealing with Van Cleef and company) that took you from start to finish with a major plotline that felt like it centered around you. LotR pretty much starts you off like that.

    This is just hearsay, of course, so make what you will of it.

    The game is fun - loads of quest's and I have had so much fun doing quest lines that you forget about which level you are.

    Suddenly you notice - yay -  I just lvl'ed.

    Still a lot of 'kill this' and 'obtain that' style of quests but what makes it tollerable is that the quest lines are detailed and interesting and there are plenty of them (most quests sprout out into deeper storylines which pull you through the leveling system) so you rarely do a quest and then move straight onto a completely different one (even though you also have that option) wondering 'wtf happened in that last quest?'

    There are also epic quests which relate to the games story. These take you through instances and areas which include both good and bad guys from the books (Aragorn, Gandalf, The Witch-King etc.) as well as new characters who all deliver a strong impact upon your playing experience.

    The game also caters for both single player quests and fellowship quests. Quests are also sharable so even solo quests can be done grouped.
