    I've never played this game before, and that says a lot given how much of a giga-nerd I am for Tolkien's world. I really want to get into this game, I just need to find the time to do so. Who knows, maybe I join one of the LotRO events Smile

    Kind of surprised it is getting remastered. With how small the player base is, I would've figured it would be wrapping up. A remaster almost suggest it is here to stay for 5 more years after 2022.

    How far into remaster is the question most of us that play it. For them to do what most have been requesting would require a massive amount of work. New game engine which will probably break a lot of systems lotro has in place. As well going console eesh that going to be quite the change to a lot of systems. Know how each classes works and how many skills each have putting that on console going be bit weird to me. We'll see. Though I'm not entirely happy with SSG atm I hope it succeeds in what it wants to accomplish.

    Been awhile I heard 'Daybreak Games'. I used to play the game DC Universe Online by SOE and then they took over.

    I've watched LOTRO movies mainly because my sister is into the books and movies. Maybe someday I will give it a shot just amongst us UFP people! I definitely do love the guild name you came up for it! Big Grin

    I still play LotRO on and off and it's one of the most epic games I've played so far. I love that they are considering a remake (performance of the game is sadly... lackluster even on a potent modern machine) and I will probably continue to hop in and out of the game. My rune-keeper needs to zap stuff, after all!

    Yay new stuff for LotRO! It still looks good even for it's age, but agreed Sunfire that the performance is dire. It's not helped by the fact that all servers are hosted in the US, meaning pings sub-100 for us Europeans are typical.

    Despite my dipping out and back in again, it's a great MMO if you're interested in story and fantasy worlds. It's also much better if you're playing in a group, but still works solo.

    I haven't played in forever on it. I missed out unfortunately when there was still a lifetime thing to buy so my interest in playing it had waned and most of my friends left it. Will say it seems fun to play still.

    I have liked this game but my biggest problem with it is that it does not scale with a 4K monitor. The UI does not scale up and all the text boxes for inventory and the such are too small to read. I have tried to change some of the in game settings but they don't work too well. I have even tried some out of game work arounds but they are cumbersome to implement. Other games such as WoW, SWTOR, and FF14 scale up very well.

    Maybe this remaster with help in this regard and i would consider it again

    I had maxed out characters way back, but I left for a good while when they started the lotro coin stuff long ago. But every game out there want your money now, and LotRO isn't especially greedy, so I started playing again. I'm in a Australian kin, if anyone's on that sort of schedule, let me know and I'll get you contact info
