Originally posted by NightBandit Personally having beta tested this game to death and watched my brother play it all the time and listen to him complaining all the time that it's very boring. You brother thinks it's boring yet he plays all the …

Originally posted by EveJunkie A good, well designed and supported MMO doesn't need a freemium model to attract and hold players. AoC sadly fails on these accounts. LotRO was, and still is, a good, well designed and supported MMO. It…

I think the nature of subscription based game development. DDO, Lotro, and hopefully Age of Conan will show developers that you can charge a sub for a while and then make the switch to a hybrid model. Perhaps publishers will take this into account …

I have to admit that I enjoyed the endgame content in Lich King. However, it was the first time I had gotten a character to level cap in any game - I play a lot of games and a lot of alts. The dungeon grind was new and exciting. Since the launch…

To the guy who mentioned my screenshots. At the moment I play on a laptop. It's pretty decent, but obviously not as uber as a desktop setup. However, lifestyle wise, it suits me just fine. To the guy who mentioned my screenshots but wasn't so p…

Originally posted by chuck21222 I'm kind of surpised that you chose to socialize using RP realms only. WoW can be a great social game. I've never gotten into the whole RP thing, but I can tell you that if you just choose a medium to high pop serv…

Originally posted by Kaelano1 So... by low 20s, you had no "snare" or "root" ability or proc? I haven't played in awhile, so I can accept that. Did you have feign death yet? Again, I've been away awhile, but your primary beef is the escaping mobs…

Originally posted by -Zeno- I have beta tested several MMO's over the past few months. The are all beefed up Everquest clones (otherwise known as WoW clones). When will this madness stop? No developer is going to have the same success as Warcra…

I have just returned to LotRO for a series of features for this site and I have to say I'm having a great time. A lot of features have been added since I last played, and unlike in many games, they all make the game a better experience. Not sure y…

I'm not having a good day. For some reason, my quote to your post, Darkjinxter didn't come out right. There is a Michel and Little Delving. Michel is the starter town for Hobbits and Little Delvin is a type committed by me. ;p

Originally posted by phil_james Some good points, Jon. As far as pricing plans go, I think there may be an element of perceived value. If a game charges less, players may see it as not as good as "proper" mmos or a game for kids or a title in t…
