Lord of the Rings Online Options

[Scan_Man]

Anyone going to give this a try? It looks like WoW, which is a good thing I think, but follows the strict lore of LOTR. The game at launch will start out during the events of Fellowship. I have the game installed on my computer with all the updates, which took like 8 hours total for some reason, all ready to go.

I think the game is worth checking out for several reasons. For one, open beta starts this Friday. All you need to do is reserve your copy to get your spot. Also, open beta last until the official launch of the game with is April 24th. You even get to retain your character. Another benefit for reserving the game is if you like the game you have the option for life time online play for $199. If life does not fit for you, pre-order customers' other option is pay monthy discounted at $10 a month instead of $15.

I say $9.99 is worth giving the game a try for a month with the extra benefit options if you plan to purchase the game. Though if you are not planning on getting the game at all, free open beta is April 6th for everyone free to download.

The only problem is fitting the game between WoW, playing 3 characters, and playing PSU.

I always thought Lord of the Rings was pretty weak. I never read the books and don't plan on it anytime in the future. I don't know, I guess I prefer modern or future settings as oppose to dark ages and medieval times.
