| LotRO Housing Review | | 2007-10-30 23:07:16 | | The “Open House†preview on the Roheryn server is over and the devs are asking for feedback on the forums.
For the unaware, the Roheryn server is a “preview server†(not a test server, I’ve been told) for Lord of the Rings Online. It’s the staging ground for the big enhancements they have been introducing into the game since it was launched last April (has it really only been six months?!), and usually it’s not the final version that actually goes into production. As they are getting ready to publish the Book 11 expansion, which includes player housing, the changes are in Roheryn but no houses were on sale except for a limited period of time yesterday afternoon (1-4 PM EDT). Judging from the turnout at the “Open House†event, considering that it was held during working hours on a working day, a great number of people must have been as excited about the new feature as I was. Here are a couple of pictures to show you what I mean.
The Eyes and Guard Tavern, where noobs gather
Elf Housing Broker mobbed
Turbine didn’t announce the mechanics of the open house but in this case, the early birds caught the proverbial worm because there was a finite number of homes on sale. Supposedly, in the live version, new neighborhoods open up as old ones fill up but no new neighborhoods appeared on the list yesterday. Within a few minutes after the elf houses went on sale, the deluxe homes were gone. A few minutes later so were the standard houses. I imagine not too many testers bothered creating a kinship so there were quite a few of those available.

| | How to Choosing Your Weapons in Lotro | | 2007-06-18 12:55:37 | | Written by and adapted with permission of Shannong (US Forums)

_____________________________________________________________________
One of the most confusing and oft-debated aspects of LOTRO game mechanics is the general question of whether faster or slower weapon setups are "better". Specifically, this usually revolves around a debate about dual-wielded weapons versus 2H weapons, but can also apply to a debate about whether guardians are better-served by 1H + Shield setups versus 2H weapons. There are six main aspects to this debate: read more... | | By: Lotro Gold and PowerLeveling Guide Site | | |
| | A Beginner’s Guide to the Quests and Story of LotRO | | 2007-05-30 10:40:33 | | So I made my character… now what?
Well, there’s a lot to be done. But one of the key features of LotRO is its intricate quest system and delicately woven story. This guide will help you become familiar with both.
The Story of LotRO Story? What story?
If you’re one of the millions who have read the books or seen the movies, The Lord of the Rings has a deep and intricate timeline that follows the trials and hardships of many different characters in the fight against the Dark Lord Sauron. There’s plenty of info on the lore of Lord of the Rings to be found at the Encyclopedia of Arda.
How is that handled in the game though?
Through the use of quests and cinematic events, the story crafted by the Turbine and numerous Tolkien Experts will be played out by you, the player.
Okay, so where does my character fit in?
As a dwarf, elf, hobbit, or human, you are one of the many free people of Middle-Earth. Your character’s path does not follow in the footsteps of the books’ characters, but rather down a different path that was only oft alluded to in JRR Tolkien’s notes and appendices. Without spoiling much of what you’ll see in LotRO, there is a mounting dark force on the rise in Angmar, and it is up to you and the friends you make in the game to thwart it.

| LOTRO from the Dark Side | | 2007-05-21 12:56:07 | | While I was busy NOT getting the Keeps taken care of on Silverlode, I was over at Dark Side Comics where SLAGG, a local LAN Party group was a good eight hours into their gaming party. WOW, Quake 3, WOW, LOTRO, WOW and some other games (plus WOW) were keeping people glued to their PCs. The local server of choice for LOTRO was... not Silverlode, so that's one memo that Brian (operator of Dark Side Comics) and I don't get a gold star for distributing. All good, though. I gave out a few LOTRO posters, stared in absolute disbelief at what was going on in "God of War" on the huge screen in the console game area, and then headed back to my office to see what I could do to further thwart Bill's efforts to provide an entertaining evening of events, who at last report said he was up to 50 participants and growing.
While there, though, I got the chance to ask Andy, one of the LOTRO players and also the resident tech, a few questions:
What is it you do at DarkSide Comics?
I take care of the machines, organize and support the games... mostly tactical games, but lately we've been getting into MMOs like WOW and LOTRO.
You were in the LOTRO Beta, correct?
Yeap. As soon as I found out about it, I went for it.
Was it because you were into MMOs or because of the Tolkien theme?
I was already into MMOs. WOW the current game I was playing, but when I found out there was a Lord of the Rings Online, I couldn't not play it. As a matter of fact, I recently signed up for their lifetime thing. I'm in for as long as they plan to keep the servers up.
You also play WOW, so what do you think about the similarities and differences?
