Hello. I've played MMORPGs for quite a long time. Before playing WoW I tried at least 30 different games. I started WoW in 2006 and stopped playing late 2013. I've played WAR and some of Aion too. A game that I knew existed but didn't ever think to try, because at the time I wasn't much of a fan of Tolkien's mythology, is Lord of the Rings Online. Without going in to too much detail I'll say that I don't really play games anymore, only the occasional Minecraft creative and Banished session. I don't particularly care about whether or not Lord of the Rings Online has good gameplay mechanics, but for a now avid fan of Tolkien's Legendarium, do you think Lord of the Rings has a lot to offer? LotRO just escaped me for some reason, but I've finally started looking into it properly. I'm quite excited about visiting all the different zones. What concerns me though is how long the game has been out. My worry is that I might be a bit too late to start LotRO. Won't it be too difficult to get involved in the game? Is there a good up to date video series I can watch as a guide? Having played WoW for a very long time, I feel like there's almost TOO much to learn about LotrO since obviously the lore is very in depth and I imagine the game world is quite fleshed out by now.
Any help?
