Any LOTRO players out there?

This is the first MMO I've ever tried. It's not too bad so far, if only a bit repetitive. Anybody around here into this one?

The UI is super dated and the movement/combat is janky, but I had a great time playing it. It's clearly made for the book enjoyers, the music and atmosphere is really good, the cosmetics are pretty and the emotes are cool.

I only have time for one MMO tho so I stopped playing it

I love it.
Once or twice I get super into it for a few months, and since it's such a big slow-burn game it feels gret to jump into occasionally.
Farthest I've gotten is Dunland, on my Dwarf Champion.

I used to play pretty religiously, but I fell off the game in the past few years.

It's a fun time if you're into Tolkien's universe and the deep lore, but it's also completely mind-numbing. For me, it was a way to unwind with a podcast or audiobook or something while not having to think or stress too hard, but I also felt like I was sort of wasting my time by the end of my time with the game.

That game has a lot of soul. I don’t play it often. But if you don’t mind spending a little money they do progression servers for paying members that basically start everyone from scratch. EverQuest does the same. It’s a lot of fun because the population is always really high at the start. It’s the most fully realized version of Middle Earth you can enjoy. Great game.

I've played it briefly a couple of times I could get my friends on board. Had a good time.

Glad to get some replies to this - thanks folks! I've been on and off it myself, I was just curious if any others on here were playing.

I've played DDO (Standing Stone's other MMORPG) and enjoyed it quite a bit. I've heard good things about LOTRO and am considering giving it a try.
