  • Wowrocks your an idiot if you think wow has a better lore than lotr do some research before you make a fool of yourself in public.

  • the storyline, it just feels more like an standalone rpg to me. Also, being a big fan of the IP, its kind of a downer to see heros running around everyhere. The Shire packed full of elves men dwarves. Armored mounted hobbits all over the place. Its just silly. For my preference I'd have liked the game to be standalone.

  • hey guys check out my page every subscriber i get i will make a video of your choice which is about lotro. Even if i get 100 subscribers i will still be making 100 more videos just for YOU. This offer lasts intill sunday. ty.

  • 0:34 that shows a large expanse of mirkwood, so maybe we may get a full mirkwood update sometime later on?

  • the download takes forever!

  • lol around 1:35 it was just like The Old Republic trailer "We must fight FOR THE REPUBLIC!!!" but with a lame voice actor :/

  • This looks really good, although I can't not mention that woman's terrible English accent.

  • It just beats WOW at every corner!

  • /watch?v=UK3cfz9NdZ4

    for awsome Burglar tribute

  • my fav game of all time is oblivion, ive never played an mmo but i cant resist wanting to play this. Is this a good game for an mmo noob?

  • @guitarist1352

    I should give it a try if I were you -- it went free to play last fall, so you can see for yourself. Lotro, as it was some four years back, is very different from the game as it is today. It has both beautiful graphics as well as a good gameplay. The only downside I have currently experienced is that character models are rather mundane. But there are a lot of nice cosmetics, so you can individualize your character by utilizing the alternatives.

  • well... in compparison of wow to lotro. graphics lotro. difficulity wow, teamplay wow , mechanics wow, pvp ( i dont know both games got well made pvp ) , lore 100% lotro. (wow also has a great lore, but blizz never told it 2 us.)

  • Do the elves name everything like that? They must really love WOOD!

  • Guess She Wants MirkWood to go back to Green Wood The Great

  • @goozieFALK That's because LOTRO isn't based on the movies. It's based on the books. The movies are great, but they didn't show half of what happens in the books, which is a shame. But LOTRO really captured the LOTR story and that's why it's great, IMO.

  • @Aronys i really wanted to see the rebellion in Shire when i finished reading i was so sad once the movie finished without it!And also some things were changed in the movie!For example:Merry didnt go to the attack on Mordor !And i dont think that Faramir took the hobbits back to Gondor, but im not so sure on this one!

  • @gluttony32 With LOTRO there is actually small hints of the Scouring of the Shire. You just need to be aware of the clues. E.G "Trouble in tuckoborough" (the campaign on the smials) and in most solo player skirmishes there is the constant reference "Sharkey".

  • @Aronys the music from the films would of made it way better.

  • @AlmightyGidge5991 That would have been amazing! But I don't think they have the rights to use the soundtrack, they only have rights to the books =[

  • @MsPoisonMusic FIlms did just as good as the books to be honest, they could of attempted to blend the two together :)

  • @AlmightyGidge5991 its better that they follow he books, ibecause everything in the movies in the books, but more then half the bbooks arent in the movies, though i would have liked it if they kept the voice actors if jsut for continuity

  • @Aronys What? bullshit, they show have created to movies good compared to the books.

  • 1:11 That tree is quite scary, I think.

  • iv'e played through mirkwood, and it's no where as epic as this video (extremely good trailer btw) at best the epic storyline is 'epicly tedious'

    it's too easy!! especially lothlorien (no challenge whatsoever), and im talking candyland easy!!! see for yourself

  • Lord Of The Rings Online Turbine Points Hack (Download link) /watch?v=H_XmX25k20I

  • Epic Much?

  • Comment removed

  • Well..........iam just thinking about this since some one just said to me that the reason why lotro turned free is because........they say that no one likes to waste money for this game.....they said its crappy........ but i dont believe them....they just dont have the right taste for good gamez

  • @ecomensurado They turned free to convince more people to come to LoTRO. I know I was considering WoW, but then I heard that LoTRO was F2P, and I absolutely love LoTR... so I went there. =]

  • Look for The best lotro gameplays on lazylotro channel! Its new but ppl are working on it. Just watch :)

  • Im thinking of getting this game but does my comp need any requirements to run it aside from the usual??

  • I stopped playing Wow a year ago, tried Lotro because I was starting too miss Wow... Now I no longer care about Wow and won't be getting Cataclysm.

    Lotro is a superb game and has more depth than Wow

  • sucks we have to use "other methods" to do the raids since no one is freaking on on 5 servers I play on, at 3-6 am (the only hours I play)

  • I am not joking or anything else than totally sure when I say this, Lotro is and will be the best mmo of all time. It is just simply the most fun game I have ever played.

  • the actress gave the voice ROCKS ! Owned again Turbine !!!!

  • COULD SOMEONE PLS TELL ME NOW THAT THE GAME IS FREE R THE EXSPANIONS FREE TOO??????????????????

  • @sneaksmasher Simply. No. You get the free game with Bree-land shire and Erid-luin, and then you gotta buy additional content.

  • @sneaksmasher Nowdays the 2 Expansions are free aswell as far as the story quests go, you still have to buy the quest packs for everything else but you can enter Mirkwood, Moria and Lothlorien and do the story quests

  • lotro graphics much better than wow

  • Wait a minute.... That Elvish woman is Galadreil? She is not what I expected.

  • @goruu its her aura that seduces noob

  • how to play FTP bacouse i only can make trial acc....HOW TO PLAY FOR FREE more then 14 days....I am from SERBIA????PLS ANSWER

  • @omensog666

    Nikako.

    LOTRO EU nije free samo je LOTRO USA free. Treba da napraviš nalog tamo.

  • @OldGoldA Aha...Pa jel moze neko odande da mi napravi acc i ja ovde da ga koristim????

  • @OldGoldA sad je i LOTRO EU free , ja igram odavno na NA do duse

  • @omensog666 i guess you went to the european version of lotr.com but if you look in the right topcorner you should see a bunch of flags. clikc on the american flag and the full version should view itself for download

  • I would totally play this if it didn't take up 15gigs of space... :(

    and lol, galadrial's american/english accent was so lame

  • lotro is the best mmo an brilliant idea on f2p !!

  • galadriel's voice? nah it lacks wisdom and sounds human.

  • wow is a really terrible life sucking game compared to lotr

  • I'm gonna resubscribe when the F2P will kick in (Yes I'm gonna be a VIP member) I think that the F2P option will bring a lot of new players into the game, and that's a good thing, since the starter zones are quite empty now, but end-game still got LOADS of people. All new players from Europe, come and join the Snowbourn server! Yaay :)

  • @diztar I've never played LOTRO! I've been more into WoW and Runescape for a long time now. For a while I didn't even know LOTRO existed but I've been watching lots of videos lately and my friend started playing so I think I'll try it out when it becomes free

  • Damn have been Ceolina(minnie) since the launch, and im going back for more orc hunting and balrog slaying time once it goes F2P, greetings from Lvl 65 minnie Ceo :)

  • @mathiasgbg that's good hope to see ya one day on the field (from hunter and minstrel lvls 8-10

  • I hate people who say that Lotro is copy of WoW.

    Lotr was created decades before WoW.

    WoW sucks...

  • @PatriaFinlandia yeah, but lortO was created few years ago, and of cooourse it's inspired on wow! o.O [THE GAME!]

    wow doesn't sucks.. it's a great game, such as lotro =P i play both, and i prefer wow; but that doesn't mean that lotro is bad =P i think it's really great =)

  • WARNER BROS. INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT ANNOUNCES

  • @Marllonee Try Atlantica Online, its a free turn based MMORPG its pretty good, or Shaiya

  • You can farm and fish but fishing is a hobby not a proffesion.

  • Why do WoW players post here actually?Looking for better game?Lolz

    This is my favorite game and no shitty WoW can separate me from it.

  • @PKaybe

    bcuz wow nerds are retarded that much and Blizzard woudl simply die without those US dumbs ... America ftw ;d (not)

  • i play WoW and i enjoy it. but i love lord of the rings, there one of my favorite movies. i heard that lotro is better than WoW. And i believe this.But the reason i dont want to switch is because in Lotro you can't play no evil character like orcs or uruk-hai. can anyone explain me why you cant create evil characters? that would make the game so much better

  • @friso0o Um.... you CAN play evil characters. You can be a few different kinds of orcs, a warg, or a spider.

  • @friso0o you can make monster play at level 10 than you can choose one kind of monster and there are many different kinds of monsters

  • I play this game and WoW, and i think both game are great in their own ways. (Although the lotro yTube community sucks, I looked for a mines of moria review on here for 10mins to no avail)

  • I love this trailer :D LoTRO forever!

  • Comment removed

  • this game should not be called Lord of the rings. it looks just like world of warcraft with an another name and all the characters are fucked up :-(

  • @GTAlerstad Haha, Sorry mate. But LordoftheRings......it's based on a book?

    How does it look like WorldofWarcraft?

    It doesn't have any druids, nightelves etc.

    It doesn't have two seperate Landmasses does it ?

    LOTRO doesn't have Moria, Mirkwood etc does it ?

    And mate, the characters are fucked up?

    I don't see them going around in wheelchairs, licking their elbows are drinking there own piss :)

    Not saying WoW is bad, both games are great, but it is not fucked up :)

  • @AndrewArkAngel WoW doesn't have Moria, Mirkwood etc does it? ****

  • @AndrewArkAngel no this video is for lotro. means ur answer moria and mirkwood are only in lotro not wow.

  • @standupholdground Hey man, thanks for reply but i was merely stating a point to GT :'D

    I play LOTRO lmao!

    Love it, been playing ofr over a year now ;)

  • Eh, I gotta admit wow is a lot better than this, and yes I played both.

  • @goozieFALK LOL.

  • It will be free to level 50 for new players...

  • Its now free??? I was download Allods Online and creates a icons on my desktop called: Play LOTRO Online Free for 14 Days. Oo But I was read that this game will be full free, isn't it? However... I want play this game *_*

  • @00Nessa00 This fall it goes F2P, so you have a little while to wait.

  • The Lord of The Rings Online is not going free, itself.

    It will just have three option's to play, Free-Premium-Membership.

    "Free" is as unlimited time "Free Trial", but so optionally/regionally limited, it is not for the ones who want to play the games serious, understand.

    In "Premium" you buy things(options) what you want, but it is also limited.

    While if you pay normally, as always(if you're regular player), nothing will change, except points who you'll get. So, Lotro is not free to play!

  • @goozieFALK I would say rune keepers are very fun,not like a lock its sort of a one of a kind class,there really is nothing like a lock,but lore master is a pet class and can use some pretty cool looking spells,probably the cosest thing you will get to a lock.

  • @goozieFALK LOTRO just gets better and better man,i lvled two 80's on wow and i just got bored i stoped when t9 came out out along with some friends,but anyways lotro didnt feel like a chore unlike wow,i didnt feel like i had to quest to level i wanted to quest and level,lotro feels more alive,so just keep playing man it gets better and better.ps.firefoot for life!

  • @goozieFALK LOTRO just gets better and better man,i lvled two 80's on wow and i just got bored i stoped when t9 came out out along with some friends,but anyways lotro didnt feel like a chore unlike wow,i didnt feel like i had to quest to level i wanted to quest and level,lotro feels more alive,so just keep playing man it gets better and better.ps.firefoot for life!

  • LOTRO-Hack file-upload [.] net/download-2596753/Gollem-Ha­ck.rar

  • @goozieFALK I played HARDCORE with 7 characters so that means I reached level 10 and level 8 with a man captain and lower levels with 9other chars my main was a Elf Guardian.

  • @goozieFALK I only played free 10 day trial and got level 10. Your a noob.

  • Urg Galadriel's voice hurts my head they should get the one from ltor movies as her vouice actor.

  • Best mmo out there atm! long live lotro!!!!!!,ps turbine come out with fangorn!

  • lol stop arguing about witch game is better wow or lotr whatever u play lotr so for u lotr is better but on paper wow have much more fans and online players....

  • lol... all the same shit with ps3 fan boys vs xbox 360 fanboys

  • hey shoud i play on the nimrodel server? im going  to start playing LOTRO because its awsome

  • @ps8hand Nimrodel rules :D

  • Lotro Owns Wow big times! Wow is cool as the good and evil side play story but i really h8 the graphics and clothing and such :( Lotros wepons/cloths are more reality made then wow;s in big ways wow;s amor and wepons and charachters look like crap and so childish :( And the sorounding of Wow is all teh same -.- every house is the same house on diffrent angels... just comon how hard could it be to have som fantasy with this and make it look better...?

  • @Celamn This argument makes no sense, how did it get 6 thumbs up? Is peoples hatred of WoW really that great?

  • @Caltelt

    I was able to understand what he said. Let me summarize.. WoW has Horde/Alliance in its favor, but the graphics and armor are outdated/childish/cartoony,etc­. The world has been done too many times over, buildings/caves/environments all feel the same, as they are often the same model as a previous house/cave/whatever. Therefore, he asks why not play Lotro which has that fantasy aspect to it, with sharper, more detailed and fresher environments as well?! ^_^

  • @Celamn i dont think lotro owns wow big times it has better quests better lore and a real gamer doesnt only care about graphics and yes ofc the gear is childish at low lvl rofl coz you dont know wow very well i think you know little about wow have you ever played wow to lvl 85 or 80? no? then you dont know the game good the cartoony warcraft graphics makes it you know...warcraft just like warcraft 3 i played lotro but after a few months i quit i prefer wow better :P my opinion

  • @Celamn I agree, you can end up looking like a space teletubby on WoW, and weapons look ridiculous. Atleast with Lotro you have an appearance tab so you can still level up with what you want to wear, if you hate the looks of an item you can change it to something that you like, and also dye your armour to make you unique, you just end up looking like clones in WoW :l

  • @Celamn yep. but the fact is that ALL mechanics in wow are better then in lotro.

  • @Celamn World Of Warcraft is a totaly fantasy game, almost everything in it is fantasy, Orcs,Elfs, Undeads, worgens, they couldn't ruin the game with realistic gears,they choosed to make the world look verry fancy,you just can't ruin such a good fantasy game,with realistic gears.Graphics is not the point of wow,if I want to play a game with realistic graphics,then I play a RPG one,not a MMORPG (better graphics would ruin the servers,too many people)

  • I tried this game...i never got the hang of it :/ I love the story tho, and what the game developers are doing, but seriously, they should get a better patch update system...cus it sucks...or atleast it did suck, I dunno if they changed it, I quit that game anyways and play WoW...lol

  • ok so i got my lotro 3 day ago and guess wat i cant play it cause the dam update game data wont finish how will it finish? i am getting pissed off

  • i can help u have to descripe exacly what the problem is..

  • are u on Eu-servers?

  • @powerslayer94 dam im not =( man i shouldve gone to server wit a lot of ppl

  • lol are u kidding me.. lotos textures and nature are the best !! wow's graphic sux lol .. i got 250fps with my 4850 and about 90 on lotro .. that says that lotro has alot better graphics

  • 1 wat r the monthly payment plans 2 difference between mirkwood or moria 3 can i hav both expansions 4 wich is better

  • But if Cataclysm isn't wat i expected when i get it this might be a nice change. Love J.R.R. Tolkien.

  • And what i meant was texture graphics. like player skins. Too chopped up and sharp. map texture and enviroment looked ok.

  • From what i've seen WoW looks like more of a consistent game. And idk what people are talking about concerning graphics. This videos graphics were horrible.

  • lol Jaesunsa, and even with that, the graphics are better than wow textures included, omg every graphic aspect of wow suck in many ways. (specially the awful antibadass design of the characters and their stupid clothes). I hate the desig

  • just bought the game, it's been forever. 90% to go. WANT TO PLAY!

  • still playing shadows of angmar lol

    well at least im rising the ranks quickly so to speak im a lvl 24 elf hunter soon to be lvl 25

  • @Agomongo1235 - what profession im not sure depends what your into im a cook,farmer and tailor lvling up wise i had trouble with that but do what i did and go to higheer up areas and do quest and kill ememys that lvl you up in no time

  • @jopeon i mean like hunter

  • @Agomongo1235 -oh right sorry well im a hunter its good for ranged attacksetc but after lvl 20 or something you can duel wield swords etc so i think its the best class ive played yet but guardian or champion are excellant for close quaters

    havent tried buglar but i quess thats best for hobbits

  • @jopeon hey wen i get the game can u add me as a friend and help me =D

  • @jopeon can u add me as a buffy server Vilya Leanthalion name any1 else could add me im in US server

  • Galadriel is hot.

  • Galdriel sounds alot more like eyowen

  • Dude just started lotro, owns WoW.

    Rakil, Hobbit hunter, Brandywine

  • Love this game just cause u play LOTRO does not mean you cant play wow 2 or vice versa i platy both. They are both good games other wise we would not be here fighting over the 2.

  • mirkwood was more like a free update,,too many bosses look the same :S,im disapointed ,if they dont focus on pvp they should focus on instances ..the instances in mirkwood are really boring ,,and u have to do them many times to get radiance gear ..also :hard to find grps,no raids in the pvp area,there is only 1 new mob in mirkwood (a spider) ... nah going for aoc,might come back if they doing a new expansion

  • free update ?? its should be a free update i hope that volume 3 will be free or i m getting pissed off for paying for siege of mirkwood :S

  • I absolutely loved LOTRO and played it for a few years, then they changed the pvp a bunch of times and I got sick of the instability. Does anyone know how the pvp is now?

  • Comment removed

  • Why was this trailer never on TV, Turbine?

  • It is one of the best games, if not the best after my opnion, could use more players tho you feel a bit alone

    But it really is one of the best games, i've tried alot and played lots of games and this is sure a 9.5/10 and well just because of all the.. childish wow players i can say that i've played wow since 06 and i would give wow a 5.5/10 and lotro 9.5/10

    don't diss a game when you havent tried it

  • Hey u seem a great fun of lotr like me^^ but could you please tell me if its free and where i can download it from???

  • It's not free (discounting the free trial). It's $15 monthly or $10 every 3 months or $199 lifetime. You can get the game retail or just go to the LOTRO website and download the client.

  • @Orlor ok thnx ^^

  • One I started playing lotro, i left WoW and never looked back.

  • @quikgamer same here!

  • LOTRO is by far one of the best MMO's I have played compared to other p2p MMO's out there.

  • I played WoW for years, then I bought the collectors edition of LOTRO, and I absoloutly love it. The world is far more vast, the graphics superior to WoW, and for hardcore LOTR fans, and people who have not played the game at all, it is a must buy in my opionon.

  • Love Lotr, just gotta play the game!

    Getting it today!

    And to all you WoW players that say the game is shit,

    -Fuck man c'mon u know that the game is better than wow so u gotta complain. GET the fuck out of HERE!

  • @MHArwenLord I also like the fact that all the wow players who comment on lotro being bad just do this because they know Wow is just shit and for kids compared to lotro

  • wow players dont watch lotro videos if you do u like it so dont make it worse for new players that it stinks

  • i have one question the LOTRO when we play we pay for month like world of warcraft?????

  • yes, just use your credit card, and select what payment plan you would like to use, you can use 1 year, 1 month, 3 months, or life time.

  • dont you just hate it when wow freaks watch lotro videos just so they can talk shit about us to make them feel better

  • Uhm... some of us "wow freaks" watch the video because we might be interested in playing... but with people like you in the game, I think I might change my mind.

  • haha +1 to that.

  • oh yah boromir its

    Acc: F U

    Pss: get it yourself

  • LOTRO is such an epic game with such a mature and fun crowd. I love questing

  • well i guess i am going to start playing LOTRO again. this looks like a good expansion!

  • in lotro you play then you see a player you talk and goin to do some quests then you meet 2 more players add them in the fellowship and then you got a real feeling that you are in the game/book its then so much fun and look at the mobs the are beautiful (im not a orc lover :D )

  • Im gona ask i have been in a break from wow for 3months. And im thinking Is lorto beter, i have also played Gw and i like both Wow and Gw. So du you think Lorto is somthing for me and is it hard to get started in lotro, lvling vice and social vice. Plz Reply

  • @nenokmagic2 I tryed the trial of Lotro and if you played WoW, you arent going to have much trouble playing this game

  • nice thanks :D

  • I played GW and in the end hated it. I played LOTRO and fell in love. WoW and LOTRO cannot be compared, because they are 2 different games, but LOTRO is worth getting, as it is better than WoW in my opinion.

  • I played GWs, loved it. Play WoW currently, love it too. Haven't tried lotro yet.

  • Comment removed

  • I quit because it took over my life. The end.

  • I love this game and it's lots of fun to play! But the only thing is I'm level 20 and I kind of suck! But if you play on the server Brandywine and have a mic then add me! My name is playahata! Feel free to add me and play!

  • My friends Lotro Mines of Moria has been the best 2008 mmorpg expansion at E3 . Now siege of mirkwood comes the best online graphic game. I play lotro and i recommend to you to play the game because is not WoW or LINEAGE!!!!!!!

  • is this game any good?

  • Lotro will get dx11 do shut up

  • Now If you could have a game with the customisation avaliable in APB, the story depth of lotro, the soundtrack quality of age of conan and good gameplay then that would be very nice.. I was excited when I heard about the new star wars mmo that's coming out and had such high hopes for it, but then I saw some previews and I'm not so excited anymore :S

  • Was I anywhere saying that I was comparing it to wow? Wow's graphics are horrible.. I most recently come from Aion(which only has a pretty graphic shell and not much content).. and while I understand that lotro is alot older the texturing/colours/atmospherics is still quite bad in some places. not to mention the lack of models.. On the other hand lotro has alot of other things going for it like a deeper storyline and the lack of "ZOMG I R IMBA" mentality of some mmo's..
