I agree that going forward LotRO holds the most promise of any MMO. I won't however, hold my expectations so high that I would be disappointed if some feature did not make it in. But with the last nearly 2 years and great content with the Book releases that are FREE; and Mines of Moria, Turbine is FAR ahead of the pack in content for endgame and keeping even the newbies happy!

I was really happy to see that MoM includes the original game and all the free books to-date! That means anyone can jump in at anytime and start enjoying this wonderful game. Plus with no level restrictions for fellowships, if you're at end-game and you have a friend that joins, you can help them pretty much from the start of their experience! Course they don't get as much xp that way...but hey it's a possibility at least. :)

Well I agree with you Mr Angry, I think that Rohan will be awesome with mounted combat and a new horse system in play! That's going to just be amazing! Steefel has said elsewhere that is what we could expect. So good news there! I have some friends that will be eagerly joining the game when that happens!

Looking forward to Volume 2 Book 7 sometime early 2009! :)
