Turbine does the worst trailers in the whole mmo industry.
It's like they didn't want people to play it.
Yes, the landscapes look great, and the models are lacking, but still... the game looks much, much better when you actually play it, then it ever looked in one of those trailers.
I really don't get it... can't they make a descent trailer and even 'enhance' it a bit? I mean that's what everybody is actually expecting from the trailers - they should be awesome first, 'real & accurate' later.
Funny how Turbine can't even do properly a 'fly through' mode...
You can see it in the trailers, when camera 'bumps' when zooming in and out... exactly what happens when you mousewheel to zoom... can't they code something special for inner use to cook kick-ass trailers... c'mon how lazy can you be?
Considering that LOTRO just lost 'most retarted mounts & clumsiest combat implementation in a history of mmos' title, I am looking forward to the combat & mount changes.. only waiting for some free trial or week/end to check on SoM and maybe I'll dust off my level 59 hunter.
All in all, it looked promising, in the patch notes.

Any developer or production company can make a movie or cartoon-style trailer that has graphics you'd never see in the game.
PS... I laughed a little inside at "retarted".
