how is lord of the rings online these day?


Recommended Posts

looking to come back to lord of the rings online but I have a few questions

I orignally preorder and I was wondering when I come back will I still get my cape and ring I think it was for each new character? I know I wont get the 9.99 subscription rate.

2. how many people play still? because my dwarf something( he is a tank anyone know what class he might be?)is only level 21 so will I be able to get a party I remember when I first played I got groups in minutes

3. not so much game related but was I the only one who didnt know Sauron and and the Witch King where not the same people?

I honestly wonder how many people still play lotro sometimes. Either no one plays on firefoot or im just that far back anymore... I remember first logging in and there being hundreds of people in the towns, now its great if i see 15-20.

It will eventually fade away like the rest of them. Just look at Age of Conan.

WOW is unstoppable. Too much momentum. And when Diablo III and Starcraft II launch, Blizzard will be sitting on a pile of money so high that they can develop it even more.

Everyone always forgets about Final Fantasy XI. It's the only MMO to still go strong through the years. Not as many subscribers as WoW, but it's a respectable amount.

I would call that "existing". It will difficultly change to a "thriving" MMO. If the user base is big enough that Square-Enix can make a profit, good for them but I don't really see how can they expand it against the dominance of WOW so it will eventually fade away.
