LOTR isnt a horrible game but why pay 15 bucks for this game when there are better games for the same price or less.

I was surprised that this game wasnt as good as it could have been. Alot of people are saying that this game is better than WOW but, really, it isnt. There are way less things in the game to do. Theres basic quests, PVP, and everything else you would see in any MMO. Also the game is very limited. For an MMO, there should be alot of more here. There are only a couple of races which all of them are a** ugly. The characters look really bad. The gameplay is probably the only good thing in the game.The gameplay surprisingly is actually pretty solid. Though just not as good as other MMOs. The interface is easier to understand than WOW but its pretty bland. The graphics are half bad either. The levels look fairly good though the characters look uglier than ever. The lands are detailed but i seen way better. The sound isnt all that good but its not terrible. The music is pretty boring and just about everything else sounds decent at most. Now the fact that this game costs 15 dollars to play, that really hurts replay value. Like i said, why pay 15 for this when you can play other games that are way better than this for the same price if not less. Overall LOTR online had potential but just quite didnt come out as good as it should have and as i thought. If you are a hard core fan of LOTR you might like it but even if you are, you still might not like it. Also the race balancing is plain horrible. All characters feel the same which really sucks the fun out of the game. The quest arent too bad but can get repetitive after a while. Only hard core fans of MMOs may like this.
