    *btw that's on Brandywine, once the trials peter out theres not a soul left till 50.

    
     

    I am on Brandywine

    This made me laugh because it is so untrue...

    New people and trials are coming in pretty steady, nothing amazing but you get "the new guy" questions a lot.  I was just in LL last week with a level 18 alt and there were plenty of people doing quests from The Forgotten Inn and Ost Guruth.

    And the fact that you say there is no one out there until level 50 anywhere...wrong again..well not really wrong, just more of a lie. 

    Lotro is going to be around for a while and is a good game, people are always going to try something else out.  A lot come back.  Just like a lot of the MP'ers on BW left for AoC and WAR, guess what, many have come back and they are playing lotro for pretty much the PvP aspect only.  People who enjoy PvE have even more to look forward to in the game.

    I also agree! I remember when we discovered shortcuts, like the path between Freeport and the Dark elf area. That was a big deal, and it was fun. Even then, we would sometimes go through FP and go all the way around. Travelling and seeing the land for it's vastness was not a bad thing.

    This was ruined by the requests for quick rewards. The Santa Clause syndrome: wanting rewards, gifts, prizes, and anything/everything for nothing. Surely there is a middle ground that can keep the luster of the game, and satisfy the give-me generation of MMO players.

    Edit: I am speaking of not only in this expansion, where mounts are thankfuly not summonable, but future lands as well.

     

    Actually, mounts ARE summonable. It looks like you buy them from a Rep vendor... I mean, really, is MoM just one giant rep grind?... you also get the new traits from rep grinding.

     

     

    Congrats on breaking the NDA I am sure they have in place or helping to facilitate someone breaking the NDA.

    And wow, nature rituals used to last forever, and effect the entire map, and not create a spirit so that sig was the only way to get rid of them, that would be crazy with the nature rituals we have today.

     

    Looking back at early game balance is always fun with MMOs.

    
     

    Ahh...I remember the days of grinding for attribute points to change your build.

    I might go as far as to say this was the single most important fundamental change they made to the game early on.

    Being able to switch your build as much as you want at pretty much any time is taken for granted now :-)
