What would make this game better?Follow

In the weeks that led up to my decision to try this game, I read a lot of posts from people that play other MMOs, recounting their experiences when they tried LOTR.

The main complaint was by far "it just didn't grab me like <insert MMO name here> did."

Others include "it's just too hard to progress past X level, all the quests require fellowships, and those are very hard to find".

Another is "I got my main to level 50 and did the raids. Now I can't bear the thought of taking another alt through the pain of getting it maxed".

I really like the game so far, but I am starting to see some of these things prove true. However, it seems like there is a good base of devoted players, and Turbine seems to really work hard to address issues as they come up. Considering the changes that I have heard already happened so far, and the professional polish that the game has in general, I'm very interested to see what they might do next.

If/when a major expansion comes out, what would be on your wishlist for things that would make this game better? Maybe give it more of a "WOW" (the word, not the game) factor.

I think it's agreed that Turbine is actually trying to listen to thier consumer base, and they do add in features that a majority of the people want. With the game coming up on on its one year anniversary I think we've seen some major changes and the biggest thing to remember is that they are just getting started.

To the people who played it for a month or two and then got bored and moved on, they are the types who need instant gratification. This game isnt about that. Like any good game its about having a good time and enjoy the leisure activities.

While I agree that getting to 50 is fairly easy, and that there could be more challenges put into the game, its still in its infancy and if you have faith, give it time and I'm sure you will be rewarded.

I have a lvl 50 Loremaster myself, and working on a few other characters, but I must agree, the thought of going through it all again, doesn't give me much pleasure... Some of the things that would be better would be more lands so there would be more than 1 choise for where to go on different levels.

Some other dungeons would be good to, there are only great barrows for low lvl, then Agamaur and then fornost before lvl 50... Not that exciting to do over and over again...

Otherwise I must say that it is a fantastic game, and well we just have to wait a while for the expansion, but when it comes I think it will be worth the waiting..:)
