Lotro is having that giveaway they're doing every few years again. From what I understand it's basically a bunch of mini-expansions.I only played it briefly myself years and years ago, and always was late to grab these. So if anyone was interested in giving it a shot, now's the time.
>>1975756i really like this game but never got to the end. i'm at level 121 now, at this rate i might reach the end and hit level cap in about 2 years
>>1975756Are they doing it for DDO too?
>>1977219If you really want to grind some level, get on during a festival event and do all the quests every day, you can easily get half a level every day, more if you want to deliver booze across the continent.I actually have more fun trying to go around shit, it's crazy when even the fucking deer see you from max distance and are trying to kill you, but fuck riders. It's all about that stable masters map baybee.
>play soulless, poorly maintained pay2win slopmiss me with that. echoes of angmar exists
I only play it f2p, it's more fun if you can't instant travel everywhere.
will try it out
fyi apparently the code THANKYOU2025 is also currently active, use it if you haven't yet
Spent a lot of money on this game years ago, all my purchases were ''lost'' when the game moved ownership, so I look to see what this ancient game's sub looks like and it's 15 fucking bucks a month lol.lmao.You gotta be fucking kidding me.
>>1985085don't let the man get you down, play it f2pbut see if you can get any of your characters back too
>>1975756>From what I understand it's basically a bunch of mini-expansions.LOTRO allows F2P players to access content until Riders of Rohan (3rd expansion). With this content you get everything before Corsairs of Umbar.
>>1975756I binged the fuck out of this game a few years ago. Pretty much 100%ed every achievement/milestone that was soloable. Huge ass game, very fun, and I enjoyed doing all the achievements to earn lotro points and buy content from the shop.
>>1985808>I binged the fuck out of this game a few years ago. Pretty much 100%ed every achievement/milestone that was soloable.Guess what, now they've made more content for you to waste your time on!And LP-maxxing can be fun.
>>1985085Yeah, dunno if it's related, but I couldn't find my old character on any of the servers and apparently they closed down 32-bit servers and opened 64-bit ones. You had to transfer your characters before end of August or something. I've read that they're going to open transfers again at a later date.Weird technical stuff.>>1984992It works, thanks.I made an elf and their zone seems kind of empty compared to human. Or at least I'm getting an impression human zone was more packed and easier to find stuff to do.Just need to find time play this now and maybe move on to better locations.
>>1986221If you just started, all new chars go through a starter zone which is an instance of just part of the big world. There aren't going to be a lot of other players there because it's only new chars. Once you finish all the quests in there it lets you out.>they closed down 32-bit serversIf you were on a previously active 32-bit server, this month is probably the worst time to start playing again. They had free moves set up from those servers but that ended last month.I think they're about to create some better way to allow migrations from dead servers, but it's not ready yet and you will have to go through the customer support process. I can't help you there.
>>1986445I've only played until like level 15-20, so it's no biggie.>all new chars go through a starter zone which is an instanceI chose the tutorial that has you go through the whole war with Sauron shenanigans flashback. I know practically nothing about the lore and story besides watching movies when they came out.Pretty sure I'm out in the real world now, though I just don't have time to play right now.
>>1987681That's just for high elves. Every race gets their own starting instance before it dumps you off in the prologue areas - well, assuming you chose the Shadows of Angmar start. Beyond the Shadow dumps you off immediately in swanfleet and everyone has the same starting instance.
Dunlending fuckin' shits. Betray me and ship me off to Isengard to slave for Uruk's and be interrogated by Saruman.It honestly feels great to go back to Tel Methedras after you escape and slaughter a bunch of them.
>>1991086As far as Uruk-hai go, the lackey that Morflak assigns to watch you is actually a somewhat decent sort.
>>1991086Tal. not Tel.
Fuckin' Isengard.
Free transfers from dark worlds (the older 32bit servers) to new worlds are open.
how is this game for someone that doesnt care about mmos or lotr?
>>2003497why should it be?why is everything all about you?
