SOE has
Fan Faire and
WoW has
BlizzCon, but could a convention centered around
Lord of the Rings Online (or all
Turbine games, for that matter) evoke enough interest? Many fans seem to think it's about time they had their own company- or game-specific con as a place to meet others who enjoy the work Turbine has done with
LotRO, DDO and
Asheron's Call. Perhaps the biggest advocate is a blogger by the name of the
LotRO Follower, yet the original idea came from Moormur at the
LotROCast podcast. Other members of the
LotRO Blogging Collective have thrown in their own two cents, like
The Middle-Earth Adventurer who makes the point that it doesn't have to start off large, as in time it will grow.
So as the general MMO-playing public, we'd be curious to hear what you have to say on this subject. Have the success of the other
topic-specific cons shown that it can be done with others, or should Turbine fans just get together at other major cons like Dragon Con, PAX or GenCon?
