Dunno why, but even though this game has excellent graphics and a nice book as background story - I hear warning bells when ever I think of it. I have a feeling this game might turn out to be a really worthless mmorpg.

I think the background story is the problem. I am a huge LotR fan, but I think whatever they do with the MMORPG it will not live up to the book. I will certainly give it a go, if not at release, then when the free trial comes out. I have to agree though I have a strong feeling it will disappoint.

Yeah, that might be it..and also, it will contain 100000 billions of variations of the heroes from the books..so it will proberbly have a rather lame feeling when every second person you pass have names like Aragoorn, Aagorn, Gindelf, Gandelf etc etc

Abit yes - only difference is that they can become MORE like their "heroes" in LoTR :)

I think we will see like 20 billion hobbits on their way to mount doom.

think you've got that in every game tho, some ppl dont have the inspiration to find a nice name or to roleplay a bit with their chars.

The game looks very nice but just like Ankh i dont have a good feeling about it.

Won't see any hobbits heading for mount Doom, simply cos it's impossible, they didn't put mount Doom in the game :)

I'll probably keep an eye on this one, could turn out to be quite good. Only problem at the moment is the crappyness of my computer/laptop. Looking at the graphics i don't think it'll be able to pull it off :(
