Part of the transition to free-to-play for <a href="http://www.lotro.com"><em>The Lord of the Rings Online</em></a> includes some cosmetic changes here and there. We got a glimpse of that <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2010/07/15/new-lotro-screens-give-a-peek-at-free-to-play/">a few weeks ago</a>, and now <a href="http://www.turbine.com">Turbine</a> is giving us a look at another area that's undergone some changes.<br />
<br />
The man and hobbit starting areas will have a new look when free-to-play arrives this fall. You'll see some familiar faces, and you'll still have the standard assortment of shadowy figures, backstory, and angry creatures to fight, but things will look a bit different. <br />
<br />
Check out the newest addition to the gallery below for a look at the new man and hobbit starting areas.<br />
