Comment: I tried the game demo, since I was currently playing WoW at the time, and I absolutly loved it. I haven't actually renewed by subscription, but the gameplay was pretty similar to WoW, and the storyline is interesting because it follows the same general story as the LoTR movies. I give it a 9 because I never got into the later levels and I can't give a full opinion of the game until I have at least tried it a bit more.

Comment: I give this game an 8 not because its a bad game but its just very pleasant to play. Feeling is good and graphics are also very impressive. Though Ive only played the trail it is enough for me to say this game isnt as bad as anyone thinks it is. Paying for me if off becuase my soul it with WoW =P. But either way I strongly suggest anyone playing this game have fun, Its not that bad anyways though WoW still owns =D

In responce to someone else in the forum I do have a
70 in WOW and this game kicks its ass in EVERY
ASPECT
the only downside I can think of is that you have to
have a mideum to high rate computer to truely appreciate it.

Comment: all u haters who keep sayin "oh wow is totally leeter than this bulls**t, its way funner this game blows" how can u say that? the only difference in the hame is this, LOTRO has better graphics all around, better better story and loads funner stuff to do. the crafting is fun, combat is good not too fast you cant keep up with it, the quests are fun seeing as how you meet people you already know and love, especially the hobbit quest with the Ringwraith in it. I love how the important things in the story instances the screen gets all cinematic and the HUD goes away. It's far better than wow in all story/quest related aspects. graphics too. gameplay is similar although i like the fact that in LOTRO its not, run through instance lvl 5 lvls wield that dagger for 1 level then sell it buy a new one. the normal mobs drop halfway decent gear in LOTRO which is good for the starting players. All around, i say its better then WoW. solid 10.

Comment: 5 min after my last comment i downloaded LOTRO free trial and played it for 7 hour straight + some hours the day after to get a feel of it.. what i like about it: best non "WoW" MMORPG tested so far, good world and char grapics,good char making system, music above "ok",feeling you are a bit part of the story as you bump into known persons (im sure there are more to this game then what i have seen with the free trial) =) what i did not like about it: to few classes,not being able to play evil,you dont have the freedom to run out into the world at lev 1 even tho im sure its not smart but its about the freedom feeling.. battels are slow and tend to get really boring and the "magic" over the game i lost kinda quick.. some small other stuff to that i did not like but i will not go further into detail.. this game can improve alot but its not bad and many firsttime MMORPG players who got a love for LOTR would love it.. but in the end i found WoW still to be nr1 for many reasons.. i dont know if its the cartoonish grapics in WoW that makes the gameworld more "magic" but something just capture me more and make me wanne play it more.. i know many people think its wrong of me to compare these 2 games but i dont care, im abit hardcore player and when i get bored of wow i wanne know what game i can choose that gives me the feeling "this is just as good if not better" i give it a 8 for being very close to and maybe with some improvement better then WoW someday.. sorry for my long review..

Comment: played WOW for about 1 and a half year and reached lev 70 for the 2th time pala/lock.. no big fan of raiding.. maybe it was the way the guild raided or something.. anyway i got bored.. tested eve,runescape,camelot, and some others people said was good.. but i found them not to compare to WoW.. i have been without WoW for 5 months now and kinda miss it.. but i would not start again before the EXP-pack comes.. LOTRO made me come to crossroad.. will it be LOTRO or WoW when exp-pack comes out i wonder... so my Q is this: does anyone here have a high level (70) in WoW (or had) and would rather pick LOTRO over WoW??? i would really like to know.. cause simply choosing LOTRO over WoW because they loved the movie and like the story better is not good enough for me..

Comment: Obviously, zippedidooda has never played this game because there is plenty to do, even at level 50. Let me just name the things, well first off you can do PvP, you can help others, you can do raids ( Helegrod/Rift) or you can craft. Yes, this game can get a tad boring, but not enough to let you quit. And you wont be satisfied with WoW either so dont even try it bub. Currently I run a kinship on Brandywine, and my name is the same as my author name on this.
May there be a light in all dark places, where all other lights go out- Lady Galadriel, Fellowship Of The Ring

Comment: It's tricky.
I've played this game for about 2 months now, and I'm preparing to leave it tbh. At first, I wasn't too impressed, because the intro was very dull. To be fair, it was misleadingly so. The gameplay is very good; the music/sounds are one of the ebst htings about the game. You can buy intruments and actually play them in-game. I'm actually going to switch to WOW which I've never played before. I'm just bored really
I understand why people really like this game, I do honestly, but I think perhaps they need to leave more time before they review.
I think this game relies far too much on the fact that it's LORD OF THE RINGS ONLINE OMG!! AS IN YOU CAN GO IN THE SHIRE!! Yeah, that's great for a while, but the novelty wears off! Of course it does, that's what novelty does afterall. Once it has though, you're left with something that isn't very gripping. Once you asccept that you're in middle earth, you find there isn't a huge amount to do. You quest, you hunt, you do instances... you hunt... you quest. I know that you ight think it's all you do in other games as well, but there's something different about this game. It can be a bit of a grind, but you upt up with it because you know once you reach level 30 you'll be able to make it through the spiders and into rivendell yay... So what about when you're not that interested in exploring Middle earth anymore?
What you're left with is a skeleton of a game. There's simply not enough to it. It's very gripping and impresive for a while once you finish the intro, but after that it's just plain boring in my opinion.
p.s. the customer support for this game is the one MAJOR thing that lets it down. It doesn't run well with vista (though they might have fixed that now), and the support is just horrific really.

Comment: There isnt much to say about this game, its a better version of wow. Better graphics, better quests, better gameplay, better Sound/Music, WAY better crafting system, better EVERYTHING. One thing to say, bored of wow? try something better than the number one game itself, LOTRO! (I had to stop playing this cus icouldnt afford, but dont let that stop you!)Also, I rated this a 9/10 only because turbine copied wow, but in fact it was good that they did that! lol =D

Comment: The game really is't for me, but it's much more indepth than World of Warcraft.
Much like World of Warcraft, its PvP system is horrid, but it's an improvement in various ways. A must for all LOTR fans, and a very user friendly MMO experience to all.
Note: Any else seem to realize that all great MMORPGs fail terribly when it comes to PvP?

Comment: An incredible game taken from the books context, the only problem I have with it is that you aren"t able to play Evil characters such as Uruks, orcs, goblins, easterlings, haradrim, etc. (as a main character in the world and its entirety). However aside from that this Game has beaten every other game in the other aspects it holds. It offers incredible flexibility with graphics which are the best I have ever seen. Even playing in the beta I realized how hard this was going to hit, and when it hit, it hit. WoW has lost so many players they are becoming desperate, coming out with "the wrath of the Lich king" haha does that sound familiar to anything from this game? aside from those comments LOTRO has mounts, extreme crafting and gathering, questing, fast travel, seamless/instanced technology, an enormous PvP Battle area, and even offers an evil side in which a pre-leveled avatar may be chosen to fight against the free peoples in order to gain better skills and items. Rank/prestige in the games PvP honor system. ranking allows you to obtain more items and the like, and prestige displays the skill you have shown by winning certain amounts of battles and the less you are defeated the higher your prestige is for victory (you can"t grind for this). What more could you want? read the books if you haven"t and see how much it really plays true to it, It"s amazing and I doubt any other game will take on this one for game of the year!

Comment: This game is truly fun, good graphics, fun quests, and locations that are accurate to the films and books. There are actually quite a few things that are very similar to WoW; the crafting system, currency system, etc. And that isn't a bad thing! It combines tried and true aspects of a successful game with fresh new ideas that encourage more Role-Playing than most MMOs out there.
But like all MMOs, it has it's bad sides. The graphics, for an unknown reason, will not run on my PC when I have them set so they appear to be on-par with Guild Wars, which runs perfectly on my PC. Because of this, players with lower-end PCs will be forced to use low graphics settings. Also, Turbine must not like humans very much, they make all of the lower level Human pants into leather tights with a strange pattern stiched to the crotchal area. Believe it or not, some of us don't want our character to look like an idiot until level 15.
But in the end, the game is a fun, rewarding experience that most MMO fans can enjoy. The monthly fee could be lower though.

Comment: As I walked through the Shire as a lvl 11 human, it dawned on me that I was walking on the exact same street that Gandalf came down in his horse cart in the first film when fireworks blasted out making the children laugh and smile. That is how I felt. The game takes the graphic details from the films and adds it to the detailed description from Tolkein himself. The best MMORPG I have played so far, considering I have played 6 previously =D. My score of 9 will become a 10 when the rest of the world is revealed!!!

With the new big patch and the future expansions, we fellow Free peoples can defeat the evil Alliance and Horde together if we use our wits and strength. WOW MUST FALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment: This game is the best game out yet... I fell in love with it! I had a small little hobbit guardian (the tank class in LOTRO) and he was the coolest little dude ever. Dont listen to the people who said it sucks, try it! The game rocks! I used to play WoW, but it got repetitive and BOOOOOORING in the end. LORTO is diffrent quest wise... WoW and its quest made me sigh and say sarcasticaly "Another quest where i go and gather something..." or "Oh boy, another quest where i go and kill this many monsters.... Whoopee..." LOTRO quest were exciting and unique. I do admit, their are some similarities to WoW in the game, but it is very good and makes up for that with awesome graphics, quests, and a SUPERB crafting system. The crafting system is so AWESOME! MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH better than WoWs... In LOTRO, you can craft your own BOW or even your own STAFF!!!!! Remind you WoW players of how stupid it was you couldnt make your own staff or bow in WoW? Yes, the WoW crafting system is good, but not better than LOTRO... It is a game that i believe will go farther than WoW. The only downsides to the game is that the graphics are SO good that it was a little laggy unless you put it on low graphics, and the combat system was a little like WoW, but it is a much better game than WoW, I give it a 10 and you should definetly try it out!

Comment: Not a major fan of MMORPG, however, tried WoW 2 years back and although I was really impressed with my initial impressions (1st day of play). 2nd day I had game.... 4 hour update..... game would not boot again..... online support absolutely ignorant and completely missed the point of being support..... reboxed the game..... threw it in the bin.
Lord of the Rings online. I'm a massive fan of the books and loved the movies. Hesitated buying this game but have had no regrets. Absolutely brilliant and immersed in Middle Earth. Seems to be alot of people comparing to WoW - not too fussed if it is better or worse as I think this game was worth every penny. I didn't expect to be hooked on an MMORPG but it is pretty addictive once you get started. Top marks from myself. Running up an ever growing electricity bill but not to worry, can always get wasted in the Green Dragon.

Comment: Tried for two months. The game is great but did not run well on my system. It got on my nerves watching my dwarf start and stop constantly when he was just suppossed to be walking. Dont have the problem with WoW. This game is also not for solo-minded players. I like teaming up with people but sometimes I just want to experience the world myself. LOTRO is not for solo players as you get higher in levels.

Comment: I gave this game a 9 because I haven"t played any other MMORPGs. But in my heart its a 10. I love the game.
Each race starts in a different area and has different types of quests. I laughed out loud when I finally retrieved the chain from the brigands for the old man in the wood camp and he mentioned that the Sally he mourned who owned the chain was his hound dog. :)
Hobbits hunt for lost cows and ferry mail - unless they go for the heavier quests and start killing spiders and the "evil" dwarfs. Elves fight to clear out ruins overtaken by darkness while Dwarves fight against encampments of goblins (naturally). Its all a blast and I"m as hooked as anyone can be despite my age (52) and sex (female).

Comment: How can people who play beta, which is not the real game, have any opinion on the matter. I understand you feel like it's a copy of WoW which i have seen glimpses of, I have also noticed a lot of EQ2 references. But every MMORPG, is going to have some concept copied from another game. Spending one hour playing a MMORPG, is just scratching the surface. You have to find what else is out there to experience. So suck it up. Get a job, spend 50 bucks for the game and 15 for a one month subscription, and give it a real try before you bash it forever.

Comment: Very smooth launch! Having a blast playing. It does have a lot in common with WoW but that is a good thing. You can start playing immediately without scratching your head trying to figure out what is going on. Better use of stories than WoW and 100 times better than DDO. I guess Turbine learned something. The free update in June should make this game even better.

Comment: You said it Avenge65. Your 1 hour of disappointment. If you think you can make a good judgement on a game of this depth in an hour then you really are stupid. Comparing this game to WoW is like comparing a 747 to a paper airplane. Don't worry, we are glad that your close-minded, hypocritical, online self will not be playing. I played this game since beta 1 and there isn't another game that comes close to the beautiful in-depth game play and graphics involved in this game. Thank you for playing WoW.

Comment: as i pushed the "exit game" button tonight after about an hour, all i could think of was how glad i was to be rid of this game. With all of the people below saying how it is like wow, i wish that it was. WoW has perfected its system over a two year period while this game is just starting. That is the only hope that this game has, to survive the first few months with a fanbase and upgrade its platform.
The combat system is slow and repetitive, while the quests are the same ones just with different wording. If I could see fun content in the future I would consider buying it and racing to the fun stuff in the "end-game". But with the repetitve quests and the "push a button, wait 5 sec, shoot an arrow, wait 5 sec before u can cast, push a button, wait 5 sec, ..." i cant see it being fun.
Go ahead and say, that is exactly what WoW is, but it is not at all. WoW is all about immidate response.
Last thig is that, below it is said that WoW is easy, grated the combat system is easy to learn, there is nothing easy about end game raids or High level content for people who like the game. Which is over 8 million by the way.
(just to say i am a tolkien fan and was awaiting the arival of this game, only to be let down severly. guess it is time to go back to WoW after my one hour of dissapointment)

Comment: I waited for beta, and never achieved it my friend got it and was playing it for a while he said it was entertaining. He got a buddy pass and gave me it and I joined after what seemed like quests that were enjoyable, and some other uniqueness I found it is too much like wow. So disappointed I left.

Comment: beta is not an excuse for poor graphics. It is like you went back in time, at least pre-World of Warcraft. Its very similar in graphics to Quest for Camelot. Won't come near taking away World of Warcrafts massive population, can't compete. The only good side about it is that it will be cheaper, and if you're a huge LOTR's fan its fun for that.

Comment: Waited for ever to beta test this game and when it finally came I was soooo disapointed. I wasnt playing LOTR it turns out it was just WoW with new terrain more lag and slighty different toon chars. Im gonna sit and wait for a REAL AND UNIQUE ORIGANAL GAME TO BE MADE, not some copy of a game already out that is bad as it is already dont buy this game dont even try it for free you will be so disapointed with it. this game was all hype they just crammed WoW down everyones throats and called it something else. i mean the world map doesnt even look like middle earth and the UI is a exact copy of wow too couldnt even come up with a original interface or lvln system sad just sad game made me wanna cry almost installed and erased off hard drive same day thank god i beta tested it for free i feel sorry for those that pre ordered it hope they can get a refund =P

Comment: Don't be fooled by the screenshots. I've been playing the beta for months, on and off, and I am very sorry to say that in my opinion this game is garbage. Yes the world looks nice, no it doesn't lag. The player characters look terrible, the monsters look bad, and the ui looks like windows 95. No evil races except pvmonster. The few classes available are uninspiring. The combat is slow and extremely repetitive. Travel is slow and boring, music is bad. Crafting system is the same old a+b=c. Almost no customization in the UI, you can't even zoom the map in and out, the area map is a rough drawing which servers of little use. Anyone who played DDO should expect nothing better here. I think I should add that I am a HUGE Tolkien fan and was looking forward to this game for a long time. I tried very hard to find something in this game that would make me want to buy and play it but I can't. The very idea of exploring Middle Earth in an MMO sounds exciting but they didn't pull it off. Also I should mention that during the beta most players would play for a while and then stop completely, they can't even keep people around when it's free.

Comment: Uninspiring, shallow, condesending, trivial; just some of the words that I would use to describe this game.
Turbine have taken one of the richest worlds created and turned it into a kids fantasy themepark with as little imagination as possible.
Prepared to be held by the hand as you "explore" the tiny and linear "world". This game plays like a module from Neverwinter Nights 2, without all the features that make NWN2 fun.
Unimaginative classes, few classes, practically zero character customization, horrible animation, mind-numbingly boring combat.
Harry Potter is deeper, darker and more complex than this piece of drivel.

Comment: THANK YOU Mienja. This game compares NOTHING to any other game, For one, as stated below, you don"t have to rely on gear and there are unique things such as instruments. Lord of the Rings online is it"s own game. People may say we couldn"t know what its like because its only in beta, but DUDE BETA IS GREAT!! I would quit every game I play (Except BF2) and play this game 24/7 if i could. I PERSONALLY garuntee that you will enjoy this game 100times more than WoW. Unless your a hardcore PVP then this game may not be for you since you can only pvp once you hit 40, or monster at 10. This game will be the beginning of the END for World of Roguecraft. World of Unbalancedcraft will no longer be the most popular game. WOOT GO LOTRO!!

Comment: This game is NOTHING like WoW. If you took a Minstrel, the healing class in LOTRO, and put him up against a WoW warrior with both in their skivvies the minstrel would beat the socks off the warrior, why? Because in LOTRO your char stats are not mostly based on yur stupid gear. LOTRO char stats are based on your char"s exploration, usage of skills and completing accomplishments, the gear helps some but it"s NOT the greed based environment that WoW is, thank gawd. And when in WoW did you ever get to play an instrument cept that stupid harp that made everyone annoyed? LOTRO is awesome and imo there is no comparison to be made between it and World of Greedcraft

Comment: Dude, I finally got my beta invitation along with a few of my friends, I don"t think we stopped playing for 4 hours... Yes i agree some of the quests get tedious in the beginning but after 10 the game just gets that much better. If your looking for a new RPG and want to get away from WoW then you REALLY need to take a look at this. If you pre-order the founders addition you get GARUNTEE"D access to the OPEN beta and your character will roll over when the game comes out. Projected release date is April 24th so you better get on that Founders Eddition pre-order.

Comment: Great minds think alike, as the saying goes. I have played Lotro in the beta for about 1 and a half hours and I must say it is the game I've been looking for. Great graphics which can only get better, great combat tactics, realistic movements/realistic in terms of Lotr. This game will top WoW by far. The great thing is that there are lots of Lotr fans who have long waited a game for the computer I can tell. Me myself being one of them. Who cares if Turbine has made a mess of other games in the past, this is not the same game at all. I have tried many other mmorpg's and none compare to this. I must say WoW is a fun game, don't get me wrong. But if you are open to a new experience give this a try it'll definitely be worth the few bucks a month you pay.
Best regards people =D.
