Drolletje writes: Turbine and Blizzard have a secret project to merge WoW & LotRO? hmmm, I can't say it doesn't make sense: -Mines of Moria = MoM = WoW upside down -WotLK is actually book 13 for LotRO -The two games resemble so much there shouldn't be any problem merging servers, gameplay ect. -After Arthas will be dead, there are no more big bosses in Warcraft lore, so next, wow players will be able to raid the Balrog, Saruman, Sauron, ... Yea, it all makes sense... Wed Jun 18 2008 2:33AM

xenogias writes: What tzat? Sure the gameplay is similar but your implying WoW came before Forchel which I can assure you is an area from LOTR that players have been wanting to explore for a long, long time. Oh and yea whoever posted this video/title ...oops :) Wed Jun 18 2008 6:02AM

CujoSWAoA writes: Lord of the Rings Online is a masterful use of arguably the most sacred of Licenses. I wish the gameplay were more innovative, infact thats my largest problem with the game. Is it World of Warcraft? No, and infact thats my favorite thing about the game. Wed Jun 18 2008 6:33AM

Saurus930 writes: The thing I have to complain about in this game is the fights, they don't feel like you're getting into the fray. To much flashing colors and strange sounds. Otherwise it looks good and have a nice feeling, shame as the fights is such a big part of it. I've subscribed and canceled two times now, maybe I'll get back in. Please please, get the fights grittier! Wed Jun 18 2008 3:52PM

Have you ever had crossed wires in your brain, where no matter how many times you tell youself it's the other way around? That's what happened to me here. Don't worry, I'm appropriately embarassed.

beaverz writes: WOW stole everything from other games, everything that's in it had already been made before. That whole elfs/orcs/ humans trip sound like some pretty old stuff but i guess it was created byt the wow team, right? It's just the adaptation of the warcraft lore (which is a bad mix of lotr+ other fantasy) to a mmorpg system that already existed. Skill trees, auction, raids... all that existed in other mmorpgs. Wow is definitly not the best mmorpg out there, its not a standard ppl with any kind of sense should compare other mmorpgs to. It has the worst community of all mmorpgs. Everytime you see somethin that is similar to wow you start screaming, but wow didnt create anything. Most of the wow kids are just too young to have played UO, Baldurs gate and all the rpgs that really created stuff. Fri Jul 04 2008 2:52AM

fattygone writes: WORLD OF BAITCHCRAFT!, seriously billzard already said if it wasnt for tolken half there stuff would never of been in wow so who copyed who stfu and grow some wow fanbois oh and tzat suck my big juicy balls ,wow has stolen the entire idea off of others not the game itself but the online concepts it continually steals to protect itself ,LOTRO was build in a way that it auctally feels like ur part of the comminty , as far as building go , W.o.w. has so many homeless players i mean it must be hell to roleplay on wow when u dont even have a place to sleep,also if you could fly in azeroth u can see the scars of how quick they wanted this game slaped together , what was the big rush? what compled them to push this thing out like it had 3 days to live? the lack of pride that went into makeing the landscape is a joke. anyway thats all imma rant about again fook off u wowfanboi panzys Sat Jul 05 2008 9:18AM
