Lord of the Rings Online

I never held the game in disdain. I tried in beta, and wasn't impressed. Figured since it was beta and the game had over a year to polish up, as well as the new expansion coupled with the positive feedback on this forum (my mistake..) i figured I'd give it another try. Like another poster pointed it out it was a mistake to follow the forum as an indicator for what I might enjoy. I wont make that mistake again.

Oh, and my survey says your a half-wit.

See how cool that makes you look? Nice try though.

Why even bother trying the game when you already held it in disdain?
 
"and a tiny bit of WOW(wasn't for me)."
(Wouldn't want to be one of them.)
 
For my two cents, the survey says....

I wouldn't call the OP a troll, you notice how no one here but yourself did?

He gave viable reasons and we tried to give him advice, the game just isn't for him and that is fine.

Good luck finding your MMO.

Graphics poor, music crappy?

Hmm then idk what kind of mmo your looking for, the only one with better music, graphics, battle animation, combat diversity..

wait, that'd be real life, have fun playing it kauz there isnt any mmo that is gonna be up to your standards

Btw if you have lotro on fully maxed graphics you pc must be a beast because 4gigs of ram, a 9800gt and p9400 doesnt allow me to max it. and raid peacefully

OP go back to Vanguard.       They need you for the one group the entire server is able to put together during Prime Time any day of the week.

LOTRO is the best MMO out right now and will be for several more years.    AOC/WAR both crashing and burning, just as I predicted.

Now LOTRO may not be for everyone.   For those who don't like LOTRO there are plenty of other mindless grind MMOs with big hair and cartoon graphics.   Also one with boobies where you can run around ganking newbs.   Also one where you can become an MMO vampire and spend your entire life looking for a sword of a thousand truths, but never find it.

Basically if you don't like LOTRO, fine.   Some people don't recognize quality.   For them there are plenty of cans of Spam available at the Supermarket.

I just started playing this weekend and am still early in the game. However with a simularly equipped rig and all gfx details turned on the game looks amazing. I've seen better characters models but think these are the worst I've seen.

Graphics aside the game is fun!. My friend and I are both really enjoying the immersion of the quest and world. Already I feel as if there is purpose for being there. IMO the OP should just keep looking for his perfect game. However seeing as how games are NOT a substitute for RL I doubt he'll ever find what he's looking for.

remove, reflex water, the grafic lotro is POOR, very very poor

 

 

 

 

vanguard, and AOc very best

 

vanguard dx9 very  very best

 

 

 

 

 

So let me get this straight:

You past a screenshot of LOTRO in lowest possible settings and DX9.

And then start compairing them with Vanguard (who doesnt have DX10, nor does AoC still either) at highest graphic settings?

one word: LOL!

You should try to level up a bit further past level20. Try finish the first book of Epic storyline quests.

Then when you end up in Lonelands and start doing the questline from the ranger NPC North West of Weathertop wich gives you the instanced EPIC endquest "Retake Weathertop".

When you have done that EPIC quest with a balanced group (you really need that), then you will be hooked to this game.

The endpart of that instance on top of Weathertop is one big scripted awesomeness I have yet to see in any other MMO!

As that's where the true strength of this game lies.

Cheers

if you don't like the graphics then this game has nothing for you other then a boring solo alt/quest grind, i made the mistake buying lifetime for this MSORPG.

i should have never left FFXI lol

Trainedmonkey ... nah, you are in wrong topic. This is not Guild Wars ;).

More fun with kinship. But even pugs are not so bad.
