I know these type of quests are old, but thats beside the point. Both quest types have a small dynamic change on the world while active and resets after its done. Other players see the change, if close by. The only minor difference is - who and how players join the quest...

To summarize; you are here slamming lotro for not doing something, no other MMO company has done yet.

Bravo!

yes while the rescue effect is a passive one if you come close and the pq effect is an active one - you can jump right into, that makes a difference and improves the old concept.

And yes lotro deserves some slamming in my opinion, for wasting one of the most amazing licenses with one of the least amazing MMO's. If it was a muppet show MMO i would not moan, but why why why the lord of the rings? I think thats worth some bashing here and there - lotro is "just another mmo" while it should not have been like that - in my humble opinion. It should have been outstanding but it isnt, without the name on the cover... where would it be?

A game without a name?  I am sorry you are not happy with the game and it has not lived up to your expectations.  You are entitled to and I respect your opinion even if I don;t fully agree with it.
