I had a blast with this game. Spells looked cool, story line was flawless, graphics were somehow impressive, and controlling the bad side characters was awesome. MP was very good too. I mean it wasn't perfect, but it was good enough for me to have fun. All that with bearing in mind that I am a huge LORT fan, but I don't think people who want to play just for gameplay are going to have much fun.
LOTR: conquest, on the other hand, was bit lame when it comes to combat style. Lots of button mashing, some hero character are too wimpy, and there was occasional texture breakup. The classes were designed very well, but there is one class that I wouldn't use at all during single player campaign, that is the rogue.
My conclusion is: this game is worth buying for LOTR fans, and huge disappointment for all who are looking for a good game play.
