Definitely looking forward to plunging right in!
A human Champion will be my preferred class. I just think two-handed fighting is just too studly to ignore!
Morning all!
My own two coppers...
I played DDO through the 14-day trial and enjoyed it... it has its' issues, but no MMO is without issues. As a long-time tabletop D&D player I didn't have a problem with the group-focus of the game -- that…
Considering what happened to SWG when they tried to revamp the game to get the WoW crowd, any talk about 'duplicating WoW's success' makes me nervous... and i get nauseous when i get nervous...
I posted a new LoTRO trailer around here somewhere... Damn, where'd that go??
Oh well, I thought the graphics in the trailer were beautiful and the character movements were actually pretty fluid... and there was a lot of detail to both the game…
Just my two bits...
CoH/V has been completely enjoyable for me since I've been playing, and here are some things to consider:
1) Toon creation is EXTREMELY enjoyable and immersive... depending on the level of detail you want at character creatio…
I for one hope I8 will be easier to deploy than I7 was... though I liked I7 a lot, it's caused some stability issues that were never an issue in CoV for me beforehand.
I think one idea that MPvP would allow would be to play out the 'big battles' of LoTRO... not all the time, perhaps every 3 months or so but having folks sign up for the next battle between Rohan and the Uruk-Hai at Helm's Deep (when the Rohan expan…
The subject of enemies to combat (and run away from!) has been a topic of some heated discussion at the LoTRO website but so far I've seen some pretty good examples of creatures that have either been at least mentioned in the Lore, or creatures that…

Innovative, but I would only play this Monster PvP if it helped my main in some way. This being said, if the Monster PvP is an exretemely fun distraction, then it could add life to the game. The distraction in WoW is…

I feel the same. I have different MMO's for different needs. For conquest and great PvP - I have EVE. But EVE will not give me the ability to dive into a world that I've read about since…
One thing I've been pleasantly surprised by is the number of people gathering around LoTRO that aren't the 'PVP L33T ROX!' types. Like so many here, I've grown up reading the novels and it was The Hobbit/LoTR that got me involved in D&D and Fan…
I felt that this post was making some good points until the whole "they-don't-have-wizards" argument came up once again...
though imput from the players should be considered invaluable there's also the issue of what I call 'Lore Compliance' which…

Just for the sake of argument though... if one wanted to argue for PvP having a place, one would be better served by looking at the novel, "The Hobbit," where a certain group of Dwarfs are…

Thanks for the link. Nothing new though - had hoped they would give us some more specific information.
The only thing that bothers me is the announcement that it will not be released before spring 2007 - we allready…
The general consensus that's forming about LoTRO is that this will draw fans of the Tolkien Lore and the movies (though the game doesn't have license to the movies). It seems likely that there will be a lot of RP going on, which will appeal to some…
I have to say that Turbine is taking a risk here... and I like it!
LoTRO, should it live up to its' promise, will turn MMO convention on its' head -- just the distinctive magic system alone has got people talking... good or bad, it's gotten a lot …
