    I tried to play this but I’m not a fan of MMOs. I couldn’t do the fetch quests and just clicking on boxes for combat. I kept ending up wandering into these really remote areas and getting lost too.

    I would hope someone takes this world and updates the graphics and maybe even provide an updated RPG experience because it is truly amazing. There are so few good Tolkien based games out there which is nuts because there is so much lore to pull from.

      That’s literally all MMO’s.

      They did at one point years ago. It looks a lot better than it used to. But they’ve pretty much maxed out what that engine can do. It’s not going to get better looking.

      It’s the only MMO I play largely for the lore and because it’s the largest non-procedural game world ever created and I love getting “lost” in it. But they’ve already completed the LoTR storyline and while the new areas they’re adding still look great, the stories and quests are getting pretty boring. Gameplay is getting boring too. I haven’t purchased the newest expansion and I’m not sure I’m going to. Been playing for years, so feels a little weird to just quit.

      They pissed me off when they completely re-worked the Loremaster class. So annoying to play now.

        Not all mmo’s are pressing boxes for combat skills. There are a bunch that are more action oriented like Fallout 76.
