Lord of the Rings Online to make drastic combat changes with Siege of Mirkwood

17 Nov 2009 12:00:00 PST

Written by Seraphina Brennan
In the latest developer diary, it's been revealed that weapon speeds will now be standardized by weapon level and type, making sure that all one-hand maces of the same level swing at the same speed. This is key, as previously players were taking slower weapons to maximize their damage, eve...

Lord of the Rings Online explains skirmish rewards

05 Nov 2009 12:00:00 PST

Written by Eliot Lefebvre
Let's be honest, people play new content for the rewards." Perhaps not the most uplifting or metaphorical way to start off a developer diary, but if nothing else you need to give Lord of the Rings Online credit for being so direct about it. But with the most recent developer diary regarding th...

Review: Lord of the Rings Online (Lotro)

31 Oct 2009 11:09:24 PDT

Written by mrmcblonde
I could choose which quests I wanted and leave the ones I couldn’t be bothered with which suits my nature. You can just run about exploring and/or killing monsters but that can get boring. Most of the quests are either killing stuff, finding items or people or a combination of the two. I foun...

The unbearable lightness of stat boosts

23 Oct 2009 11:00:00 PDT

Written by Eliot Lefebvre
While the post is specifically talking about Lord of the Rings Online, it can easily apply to many other games, and we can all think of rewards that were similarly important and yet less than overwhelming. Part of the reason behind this, of course, is that MMOs need to have a power curve ramp-...

Disappointment of the Rings Online

15 Oct 2009 12:11:21 PDT

Written by alecsj
So, Lord of the Rings Online has some pretty cool things going for it. You can gossip with Hobbits. You can explore the depths of Moria. You can fight hordes of orcs. But there is one thing LOTRO seriously lacks that in my opinion makes the game a gigantic disappointment.

Opinion: One Grind to Rule them All

23 May 2009 04:51:14 PDT

Written by Chessack
The fact is that by the time I got to level 40, I started to realize that almost all the content in LOTRO is grind-based. The Epic Quests are not, because they are story based, but you only do a few of those relative to all the non-story quests that are just grinds. Let’s look at the kinds of grind in...

Game Review: Lord of the Rings Online

03 May 2009 06:27:45 PDT

Written by Chessack
Clearly, the developers at Turbine set out to re-skin WOW with Middle-Earth. Assuming that was their goal, they succeeded admirably. And as you’ll be able to tell comparing the two reviews, I don’t like the stuff I hated about WOW any better in this game. Their crafting system is laughable;...
