This game is just a sad WoW wannabe. It tries to be WoW so much and obviously fails, they have to give away their game for free lol. This is a game for WoW haters, who's ignorance is so big that they rather play a lesser clone game instead of the real thing.

It's nothing like "The Smurfs Online". I dont know where you got the idea they give it away for free either.

Go play WoW and leave us be.

Nothing about it being free (unless you are talking about the free month that pretty much ALL MMOs offer) and it doesn't sound like you played for very long as WoW and LotRO share very little in common apart from the fact they are both MMOS.

Fanboi's make me laugh. More so, People who ignore facts are plainly ignorant. Enjoy WoW, the one good thing it does is keep kiddies out of LotRo.

I thought it was quite good - however, I found very few players when I played it so it felt like running around in an empty world. But its still good though.

...even though its no DAoC/WAR Wink


shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.

The dx10 visuals are nice though, i played it a while back, but the lack of pvp etc was what finished it for me really.. Although ripping hobbit ears off as monster play was amusing.

Lotro is very nice done. quests etc ae very nice done. It is 99% pve though. Which may be considered a downside (for those needing pvp anyways).

Way I see it, both of you are fanbois.

WoW is great, but I've heard many good things about LOTRO as well.

Keep this fanboi crap out of here, take it to PM... -_-

Only 2½ hours left.


Not at all. However, I take exception to people spreading misinformation.

That is all.

I thought LOTRO was a very nice game. Especially if you're into Lord Of The Rings. The attention to detail (like Frodo's cloak being left on the steps) is pretty incredible.
The DX 10 visuals are very nicely done.

I just went with WAR. Currently, I don't have any MMO subscription for the first time in a long time. They all feel the same in the end.
There needs to be something new brought to the table. The whole Fantasy/sorcery thing is getting rather old to me and I am also tired of the same old combat mechanics.

People can call games WOW clones all they want... but WOW was nothing more than Everquest 1.5. WoW did at least improve on some things though... like quests... being able to actually buy useful items. Etc. Etc. WAR improved upon the PVP (which was already done by DAOC) but it was fun along with a few innovative things like Public Quests (which were fun as well).

I guess I am looking for something with real time combat and/or some drastically different setting. The button mashing mechanic is getting a bit stale for me.

I think things get boring when you loose good groups of people to mess around in a game with, personaly I believe anyone could have mass fun in all games, be it mmo,fps,fpsmmo types etc.
As long as people stick together, and do things together, without the "I want the I WIN button and must have all the high end items" syndrome then you can all have a great experience.

Trouble is alot of the gamers these days have gone all me me me etc, sucks and even getting into a guild in lots of mmo's ive found of late just seems to of adopted the, "We started before you, were level cap, we are now a clicky group of 10 here at the top" etc. Thats not saying they say this in the open, but its usually damn obvious none the less.

The sea dogs guild on K8p in WaR had a great bunch of funny people of more mature age, but alas they have all disspersed and its a ghost town, seems to happen all the fracking time.
