At first, I felt exactly the same way. Then I tried the Burglar class, and after lvl 10 I was hooked. You see, certain classes (and this is true in all games) are going to be more entertaining than other classes. A lot of how a person sees a new …
Four new servers are now on the server list, though they are closed at the moment. I do hope that they add even more servers for this open beta thing they are doing, the game world it's self is barely able to keep up with the mass of pre-order peop…
This isn't anything new with SOE, I'm afraid. I wish you luck, for several friends of mine have had this happen with various SOE subscriptions in the past.

You guys are missing the point. Tolkien is extremely picky over what is allowed to be put into something based on his father's work. So I will ask you again. Knowing that you will lose, why would you want RvR style …
I will admit that my first knee-jerk reaction to the game was loathing. I'm not sure if it was the class I first picked to play (Hunter) or the race (Elf) or that I was tossed into the game during the first stress test, but I found myself having to…

Eh, I'm a game player. I have boxes for EQ2, WoW, DDO, DAoC, CoX, Guild Wars, Vanguard, even SWG. I have an account in every domestic MMO there is. Even a few of the Asian ones. I am truly infatuated with MMOs.…
That is quite the...interesting...post from Brad. I have followed the game for a couple of years now, and everything that Sigil has put out in the past (along with their "viral" marketing) has always preached against the casual player. "For hardco…
Nifty.
I'm looking forward to having more quests as well. I don't really mind the combat-grinding since it's really quite entertaining, and seemingly balanced...but I would like there to be some reason behind the blood shed other than simple exp…
Wow, very nice.
Did I read somewhere that they were going to tweak the graphics some more as well? Dungeons look really nice, but the out door zones are a bit lacking in my opinion.
Something else to keep in mind when playing Lotro is that it isn't geared towards the grinders. If you try to simply level off of killing mobs, you will quickly learn to hate the game. You have to quest, and you actually have to pay attention to w…
I think the real trick to this game (any game, really) is finding a class that you like. Even with the truly beautiful world that Turbine has created, if you don't find the game fun, you don't find the game fun. I didn't find the game to be fun...…

I'm ambiguous on whether WoW is beneficial to spur higher quality games; the content or gameplay is not really that original, but this is offset by the fact that a great deal of nongamers was brought into the market- more…

There are those who played WoW and felt let down, they feel like they threw there money out of the window. They feel like Blizzard deceived them.
"They tricked me into playing that crappy game."

As has been stated by others in this thread, the reason people hate WOW is because it is successful. If the game had not become popular, people would be focused on complaining about another game. Of course, this does not apply to every person that…
