lotro

i know some of you guys play lord of the rings: online but how is it? i'm starting to consider it since turbine is bringing back the premium lifetime membership for $199, a deal i missed out on when lotro was doing reserves. i just need to go and get new power sources to test them on my computers. at least, i hope that's the problem.

Re: lotro

I thought it was a fucking blast. My buddy Erik and I used to play like mad. Cj tried but never made it past like level 13.

Re: lotro

$200 for lifetime membership isn't too bad... but i just don't know how much i would play it with gta4, mgs4, and fallout 3 coming out. and then there's warhammer online, which looks amazing. i saw it being demo'd at comic con and pax last year.

Re: lotro

I wouldn't pay that, honestly. 15 bucks a month for a few months, and that's if you even like it. Warhammer may be cool, but I'm excited for Huxley.

* Return to Angmar - completely overhauled to enhance playability and fun

in case anyone is interested, lotro is offering a 14 day free demo at their website. i just downloaded it yesterday after my computer decided it was too good to load up spore... /sigh... and i had such an awesome creature.

so far, i'll have to say it's kind of interesting. reminds me a little of wow, without the nonsense of ganking and pvp'ing.

As much as I'm tempted to play again, I just can't justify wasting my time with a MMORPG anymore. I'd rather play some pen n paper game or COD with the BOLLS

now if I was single, bring that shit on. Or jobless. In fact the only reason i ever played this game was I was laid off for a month. And did nothing but play.

normally i wouldn't want to too, but i just get too sad when i play cod and the online widget or application for d&d hasn't been released yet (since i don't personally know anyone that would want to play d&d AND be the dm). i just need something to tide me over till warhammer comes out.

This game needs a serious graphics update. The resolution and combat animation jank is bad.

Bwah? I had this running at super high resolution a few months ago.
