Lord of the Rings Online recently launched its seventh expansion to a complete lack of fanfare outside of its fanbase and a few hardcore MMO sites.
But the game is very different from its more popular cousin. In keeping with the gravitas and lore limitations of its source material, LOTRO is a restrained experience — there are no cartoon pandas riding giant scorpions, but there are reams of quest text that provide historical and socioeconomic context for even simple missions like killing eight boars. There are also many quests that exist solely to inform you about the world rather than challenge you, like an early chain that sees you playing messenger between two elven brothers debating whether the time has come for them to leave Middle-earth.
LOTRO launched to strong reviews but, after two solid expansions, was bogged down by weaker updates, the instability of moving to a free to play model, and the uncertainty of a corporate ownership transition. Those changes included scaled down monster damage and piles of easy ways to buff characters, which eliminated the kind of clunky old mechanics that split players on the question of whether WoW Classic was fun or frustrating , but also trivialised the difficulty of a game world that had once been demanding of its occupants.
Areas that used to require careful approaches and awareness of the attention you were drawing can now be strolled through while you pummel hordes of hapless enemies into submission. Elite monsters that once required a team effort can be ground down in boring solo fights. But does an older MMO even need a challenge to appeal to its players? Players may reminisce in chat about the hardcore elements the game used to have, but those same players spend their time tracking down just the right cloak for their latest dwarven ensemble.
Having your little Hobbit-hole or a stylish Elven-house is just a perfect addition to the already immersive atmosphere. That appeal of being in Middle-earth is both obvious and understated. LOTRO has run long enough to have covered the entire War of the Ring and begun carefully mining the lesser explored appendices and supplements for material. That calm is dangerous, for it belies the threats that lurk there, both above and below the surface. Rough, old-fashioned statuary and corridors made of stacked stone bricks still stand here from the days of old.
The road connecting to the dark and dreaded mines of the Silvertine Lodes in the north leads through aged catacombs built into the rock behind the rushing waterfall called Durin's Beard. From the east, rustic statues of Dwarf-warriors line the way in from the hellish smoke of the Flaming Deeps. The Waterworks territory consists of a single, gigantic cavern beneath the mountain, which a network of aqueducts divides into orderly sections.
Hulking edifices—from functional palaces to lofty pillars—stand where lines of aqueducts intersect. In the east, this neat plan meets the cavern wall at a series of modest buildings and plazas punctuated with stained-glass windows.
In the west, the plan gives way near the cavern wall to a short wilderness of mushrooms, shoals, and stalagmites known as The Drowned Deep. Access All Character Trait Slots.
