General: Jennings: Expounding on Expansions
News & Features Discussion « General Discussion 12/02/09 10:26:49 AM
Why no mention of LotRO? With now 2 major expansions (MoM & SoM) out, plus roughly quarterly content updates, they've not only managed to add to end-game content - keeping the hardcore crowd happy - while at various times updating the starter areas and adding even mid-level content that has become somewhat stale. They've done this without sacrificing the key element of LotRO, which is the epic story of the Ring. Moria was wildly successful last year and first blushes of Mirkwood appears the same. Yeah, Turbine rarely applies new concepts into LotRO, but by incorporating some of the best from others into the Tolkien world, it has kept it somewhat fresh. With LotRO being one of the more popular titles on MMORPG, I would've liked to hear Jennings thoughts about it. |

This will "ruin" that old book-flavor that these games had/have. Still, it is great to have one of the old-time legacies re-born! |

Lord of the Rings Online: Best Expansion: Winner

Congrats to Turbine! The visual world they created is par excellance and they maintained the basic storyline through Moria (and beyond). Just one clarification - Shadows of Angmar did have a balrog already, so having one in Moria, while cool, was not a truly new achievement. Now the Watcher in the Water - that is cool! |
