Hundreds of player characters vs. hundreds of mobs would break the server.

I think what we're going to see will be like the instances in the Battle of the Isen: you (and maybe a few of your...

This reminds me of the occasional Deep Weighty Discussions of the Meaning of the name "Society for Creative Anachronism." You know, the medieval re-creationists who fight with fake weapons and real...

HOORAY!!

I have more skills than will fit on my skillbars now ... and a large fraction of them I don't use anyway.

If the new trait system means I have to go grind some new ones, I'll grind...

Also, there are two classes in LotRO that can have pets: Captains and LMs. Every now and then someone asks why doesn't Turbine provide pets for other classes (usually, hunting dogs for Hunters)...

Okay, on the one hand, no way is Turbine going to ask its artists and designers to put together a specialized kinship outfit for every kinship on every server.

On the other hand, any kinship can...

Interesting.



And just to make it more confusing, "server" can be used for either the collection of computers that run a particular world, or one computer in the collection (particularly when...

Various people have mentioned upthread that they like grouping with their own kin, but not with strangers whom they can't trust.

Back in AC2 I belonged to a large Allegiance that was full of...

"Just then flew down a monstrous shrew,
As big as a tar-barrel;
Which frightened both the heroes so,
They quite forgot their quarrel."

Oh, sorry, it was a crow. Never mind.

Exactly.

My junior Minstrel did it recently, just enough to finish the Epic Books. Whh brought in one of his level 85 Hunters to guide me through, or I not only couldn't have done it, I couldn't...

Well, I haven't done all those things, but I've done all the things I wanted to, and I love it too. That glimpse of Edoras, just as it was described in the book, e.g. Now waiting for a sight of the...

+ rep for funny.

But seriously, folks, the Rohirrim defend the Keep valiantly till the dawn, when the Orcs disappear under a forest of Huorns and are never seen again. It's in the books.

T. A....

What part of the world do you live in? If it's anywhere near the San Francisco Bay Area, take a look at www.dundracon.com. We hold a four-day RPG convention in San Ramon every Presidents' Day...

Get your character to level 85 and do the Hytbold dailies: they take a while, they involve a lot of repetition, and a couple of them are essentially impossible unless you're very young and have been...

But fashionable for when?

Middle-earth is based on the Dark Ages, as they're sometimes called, or the Early Middle Ages which is slightly less of a value judgment -- the time between the fall of...

Thank you for the information. I'm currently leveling a character who used to be just a crafting and storage mule. If I go on doing that long enough, I may have to make an f2p account for storage. ...

Yes, it's annoying; probably more annoying to me than to some others, because I am a keyboard person and use the mouse* as seldom as I possibly can.

I also have only one account, and I haven't...

I remember taking a look at the original EverQuest box ... the one featuring the pointy-eared and -boobed female elf in the powder-blue bikini, and saying to myself, "NO."

A year or so later I saw...

Whereas CJRT's opinion is that it's a shame that companies can get rights to ANYTHING his father wrote.

Actually, I prefer the new version. Instead of cluttering up my screen with icons ... say you've just completed a deed: you get one for completing it, one for a new title, one giving you the NEW...

Specifically: for reasons of "clipping" in the graphics, we cannot have long hair *and* cloaks. Way back in alpha, Turbine polled the player testers: which would we rather have? The vote was...

Well, that's hardly Dark Ages. That's fifteenth century.



At least, it was the *young* men who wore those hosen and ultra-short jupons. Elderly men and/or those with paunches wore long robes,...

Well, that's hardly Dark Ages. That's fifteenth century.

[/QUOTE]Boo to those medieval women!! To dress up yer men like such sex-objects!!:p[/QUOTE]

At least, it was the *young* men who wore...

It's first come, first served ... and Turbine's NPCs get named before anybody else.

Mind you, there was an undergown under it. (The West Kingdom of the SCA is still trying to live down the very early Queen who wore a cotehardie with gates-of-hell over a bikini. We were still...
