Lord Of The Rings Online

The Lord Of the Rings Online is a free MMORPG game developed by Turbine and in partnership which Tolkien. The game is heavily base of the bestselling novels, The Lord Of The Rings. The game represents the magnificent wonder of Middle Earth. LOTRO is a very developed game, players can choose from one of the 6 classes. They can venture about killing monsters or fulfilling quests, or they could build their own home and relax in it. In LOTRO players get the feel of how life would be like living in the Lord Of The Rings novels. The team who developed LOTRO has written some interesting articles describing game mechanics, storylines, and much more

I found it interesting that LOTRO has enabled players to build houses. Games such as World Of Warcraft are linear and revolve only around fighting monsters and leveling professions. Turbine has also managed to keep roleplaying alive as World of Warcraft’s roleplay is slowly dying. I also found it interesting that players can write blogs about their adventures through Middle Earth, and post them on the main website.

LOTRO is very much alive. It is estimated to have around 2-3 million created accounts with 30,000-50,000 people playing every day simultaneously. LOTRO is expanding everyday, with new players flowing in from all over the globe. Another thing that makes LOTRO so enjoyable is that the base game is free. Although, if a player wants extra contend he must pay a few dollars tom get it.

LOTRO is a great game that can be enjoyable to people of all ages. The community is really friendly, and the Turbine team works very hard to give players what they want.
