  • LoL still has the best F2P model.

  • THIS LIEEEEEE!

  • the man in 0:57 looks like Boromir

  • is it free to play even for moria trollshaus etc?

  • @makismakismakiskill You can buy it with points in-game, points that you can earn by doing deeds.

  • Strange how the crowd is full of dirty people.

  • i think they should make ALL of the world of warcraft free to play, you would still have to buy the game and the expansions online or in stores but more people will play it if the WHOLE actual game was free to play

  • @thgehawk141 they would get more people but thats the only way theyd make money...and new customers aint a LOT of extra money...15 aint much honestly...thats how much VIP is for this game....and it gives you access to most evverything

  • Just ask for turbine point gift cards for Christmas and your birthday, that's all I need to keep going.

  • Of course Gandalf is stil alive he's a fucking Ceo Of Lord of the rings online he must tell everyone of his great adventure

  • Im lvl 30 and im already bored of this game,the game is fantastic but the quests and the raids are so fuckin repetitive,the map and the graphics are beautiful enough, but i think i prefer a single player game,mmorpg are boring to me.

  • That was funny!

    YOU SHALLNOT PAY!!!!

  • since lotro is f2p the community is getting less nicer we starrtin to look like WoW:((

  • @DonVita074 no, its no where near wows low standards, besides, most of the real dickheads get weeded out(at least on my server) of course, it also helps that alot of the wood be trolls quickly realize its more of an extended free trial then f2p, since after lonelands you need to sttart paying money or doing heavy greinding to lvl

  • @vikingdrizzit So its not exactly Free to play... thats soemthing people stress "well its free" ..Yeah it is, but try to level off of two skirmishes and farming monsters. I had to buy VIP. Haha. thats something most people jus dont get

  • Its possible to be f2p and get to 65 im f2p and have moria angmar gold cap and others like AH slots virtue slots and im lvl 56 and never paid.

  • free to play is a myth. this will cost you more than a sub if you really play the game.

  • Gandalf in a coat xD

  • This seems cool but it's a shame you only get good stuff from buying online.

  • I got to level 30 and couldn't go any further, the free to play is very restrictive.

  • @angelofdarkness49 There is no level limit, you can do & play everything while F2P - do deeds for Turbine Points and there you go, you have it all. I wouldn't type things that I'm not sure about.

  • @DoableJay Yes, on theory. On practice it is almost imposible to get enough turbine points trough the game to buy the quest packs (not to mention horses)

  • @elmerion For a complete idiot that fails at the game, yeah that apply's to them, its normally 500-600 TP for 100+ Quests, & I get 350 a day with only played 2-5 hours, other than that I'm sorry you cannot afford to pay $5.

  • @elmerion i ... made inough tp in 3 days for gold cap - 375 riding skill for 3 accs -285 - and eve quest pack 575- lol

  • Comment removed

  • Flagged for scam !!

  • YEAH! I DIDN'T PAY!!!...

  • People say all the time ''its not free at all'' well u know nothing,shut up and dont say that it isnt because simply it is

    You can earn Turbine Points through gameplay by doing deeds and there is no limit ,so u can get as much as you want if you have some patience

    I know this because i simply have get almost the entire LOTRO game for free with TPS, i got Mirkwood the expansion with free TPS that i earned in game and Shawdows of Angmar areas as well i only paid for Moria because i wanted to

  • it's not free at all, more like an extended trial to lvl 30. It still is good but it shouldn't even be considered free

  • @Gazza30592 I'm sorry you can't afford $5 for a quest pack, with 75 - 200 quests included, what they mean by F2P is you use to have to pay to ACTUALLY play, no pay - you couldn't even log in.

  • yoouuu shaallll nooott paayyy (rebel) wooooow i play lotro and it rocks

  • Fuck WOW. If WOW goes F2P(Which is highly unlikely), then i'll start playing it again.

  •  YYYEEEEEEEHHHAAAAAAAAAAWWW (REBEL YELL)

  • U shall not lie! cause u have to buy quest packs at lvl 20 from what i saw at the website =/ so its not damn free!

  • i expected more echo and epicness in the persons voice when he said "YOU... SHALL NOT... PAY" it isn't the same

  • i try to download it on the lotro website and when i download it it says inert disc 1 please help

  • I dont get it...I paid the monthly fee, figured that would give me full access...but I still have to pay for turbine points to unlock "extra" stuff?

  • @Sharkbait132 did you get the expanstion packs

  • I wish Gandalf would run for president.

  • @MyHeadAsplodes He would so kick Obama's ass during the 2012 election

  • Is the game fully free or later in the game you gotta pay to go up higher or what?

  • @XxAssassin10ZxX well they say you can level to 65 (the current level cap) for free. That part isn't true, you can get to level 50 for free. However, if you purchase the expansions, you can go up higher (but paying $30-40 for one time v.s. $15 a month? Not a bad deal!)

  • @Jamanprince or, you can just buy rise of isengard which lets you level up to 75 :)

  • 0:58 Gandalf saw a little boy

  • @Jamanprince so you enjoy pedo thoughts? that makes you the sex offender doesnt it if you get that idea? :)

  • @aragenn uhhh no. Just because i made a joke doesn't mean thats what I actually believe :/

  • @Jamanprince then dont make such perverted jokes if you dont want to be pointed on it ^^

  • @Jamanprince ahaha

  • Comment removed

  • Interesting that on the mob is full of poor, dirty looking people...

  • @Valen630 They did that on purpose hoping people would get the comedy in it.

  • When are they gonna do this for World of Warcraft???

  • @technogamer91 aaaaaa , never?:)

  • @technogamer91 Blizzard is still talking about how to make a F2P WoW that can work. I can't expect it to happen for maybe another 2 years or so...

  • @technogamer91 never, its freaking blizzard

  • @technogamer91 I think never.... :(... although I love it!

  • @technogamer91 there giving the first 20 lvs free now i dont play just see ads

  • @smudgeproductionshq awesome just played it YAY FINALLY

  • @technogamer91 When Guild Wars 2 comes out but then why stay with WoW when GW2 is out right?

  • @technogamer91 blizzard is a money whore so never

  • @sneaksmasher world of warcraft is now free!.......up to level 20

  • @technogamer91 never

  • @technogamer91 Screw that game, Lotro is more fun

  • @technogamer91

    not. blizzard is to greedy for that

  • @technogamer91 they have but only up to lvl 20 tho

  • @technogamer91 When god decides to fuck blizzard

  • @technogamer91 Note, LOTRO used to cost money, but went free when they had a good enough fan base to keep running off the in game store. WoW has been that successful for so long, yet they fail to take that road out of greed. Shame, I'd play both if it went free. I don't exactly have $15 a month to waste on video games.

  • Bro it went F2P because it was going to be shut down from such a low player base.

  • @technogamer91 When GW2 comes out!

  • @MrJustsomerandomguy soon my pritty soon........

    now fly.... FLY MY FLYING EVIL MONKEY

    MUAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA HAAAAAAAA

  • 34 Guardian : D

  • Everyone post what lvl you are on Lotro! I'm lvl 10!

  • @Darklinkzelda

    Third Marshal Haruno Sakura the beloved (lvl 65 r12 lm eldar <3)

  • 21 orcs got scared of new players

  • 0:36 whats wrong with him? did he comes from a war or what?

  • I wanna play again... I miss playing 'Fear of the Dark' at the prancing pony with Kin mates..... damn you memories...

  • lol next they are gna do the same thing with lich king whos gna go like ill eat your souls for free!!!!!!!!!!

  • After Gandalf went through all the colors he became GM Gandalf

  • gandalf on acutal times :S

    gandalf: can i get a rise on my salary?

    boss: no

    gandalf: WHAT!?

    BOOOM!!!

  • 0:58 marley: yeah!!!

    gandalf: yeah now we have music on game :)

  • @best360gamer this is still a p2p game if u look at it from a diffrent view

  • YOU SHALL NOT PAY! Haha I'm VIP I was premium for one day and I hated it :/ it was like you can't do quests anywhere u had to buy everything off lotro store! :S

  • 0:58 Bob Marley loves this game too!

  • @best360gamer And we also want Gandalf saying it on every MMO

  • 0:11 Even Kev Jumba wants it free!

  • it was better before the F2P shit. now its all this "lotro store" and shit. im sorry, lovedit before, dont anymore.

  • Epic... had to say it.

  • Epic had to say it.

  • I taught he was gonna say play then i would go there and kill him

  • @best360gamer I wish it were that easy...

  • So....Gandolf is the CEO of Turbine? Huh.... did not see that coming.

  • @kontossavvas maybe you have a europe account and amreican server or american account and europe server

  • i have downloaded this game and created an account but i can not sign in...

    i searched a little bit and i found that it requires to buy a activation code.. is that what i need?

  • OK WTF. Does nobody see Bob Marley? 00:57

  • @PunkRockWriter ohh yes i saw bob marley to :D

  • @PunkRockWriter yah i see him holy crap didn't think i'd see bob marley!!

  • sorry, i didnt mean it to be as in discouraging, and my m8 now has it, so do i, it was just coincidental thats all. IT DOSENT GIVE TROJANS OUT. sorry about that

  • I was wondering, my m8 tried to download it and it gave him a Trojan horse. And if he buys LOTRO shadows of angmar does he get the whole world or just the location? PLEASE REPLY

  • @WhackyJonathan13 He gets most of the Middle-earth but he will not get two expansion packs - Moria and Mirkwood. Anyway, he will be able to play whole game and later, he can buy Moria and Mirkwood expansions if he wants to without any character change etc.

  • @WhackyJonathan13 He's is lying you can NOT get a trojan from downloading this game. There's not been 1 report of it....

  • That was funny =)

  • dude 0:58 is bob marley.. i swear

    

  • lol i thought he sed "you shall not PLAY"

  • i gotta admit i chuckled when he said "pay"

  • You can definitely play for free without a problem. Grinding for TP has benefits such as leveling the virtues. But purchasing something and going VIP for a month and then going premium is the best option. Gold level cap is removed, you get all your virtue slots, and more. Purchasing the actual expansion of Mines of Moria will give you Mines of Moria plus it will give you 1 month VIP.

  • So if you get Vip the entire game is for free except Expansions, How much are Expansions? 

  • this is the best commercial in my opinion.

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

  • They really did the right thing, the game has been a huge success since it went f2p.

  • Turbine,I swear I love you.

    You are dominating Blizzard and by stats,getting more players than that crappy MMO.

    Lotro for life!-Bradzon

  • The most Epic Line: You! Shall not pay!

  • im playing wow now but i used to play lotro and i was wondering if i shud go back but i wanna know the exact number of people playing this game is 10 thousond 100 thousand or a million can aanyone please tell me

  • @chnl97mta It's still alive.

  • @chnl97mta please do us a favour and stay in WoW kiddo, there are the millions u seem to be needing.

  • i cant play monster its says i need to subscribe

  • Please tell me theres another faction in this game? D:

  • It's free. But there's limitation. The Company of MMORPG also pay at employed. At large is more costly, but i'm free player that buy premium contents.

  • Yet again another MMORPG trying to pass itself off as Free. Let me just tell anybody contemplating downloading this; Yes, 'technically' it's free. But there's a huge limitation. You cannot progress in this game as the 'extra' stuff, which is actually essential to play the game. So no, it's not free in terms of making the game good, it's just a free download really. More of a trial. Might aswell pay for WoW imo, although they're both awful.

  • @HullzAngel  See in short terms, You still need to buy the expansion packs?

  • @SuicideGabe Well not really. There not expansion packs, there essential extras that are missing from the game. It's like buying Call of Duty, and then having to pay extra to use any weapons.

  • @HullzAngel Oh wow, So your like downloading the entire game? But you gotta pay extra too unlock them? sounds kinda lame, I tryed looking online to buy the disc but cant find them, i assume there store sells them?

  • @SuicideGabe You should be able to download the client direct from the LOTRO site. I'd still recommend WoW over it, as you'll pay the same sort of subscription, and get loads more (the fact that WoW is still a live and kicking MMORPG for a start). The only plus I could say LOTRO has is the fact that it's based on Lord of the Rings.

    *Let me assure you, I'm not a WoW fan-boy, I don't play either of these games anymore*

  • @HullzAngel I used to play wow got bored of it, Lvl 80 night elf hunter crushridge yo. lol I just ehh im looking for something else to play thats fun.

  • why does it say i need to insert a disk when im installing to play for free? :S

  • Yeah, free to play some shitty pve (not pvp) that is just an endless boring grind after a while.

  • LOL, this vid is so true tho, with the lady just sitting with herself just relaxing with no shoes on the desk. Epitome of what every turbine employee does, and hence why this game blows balls (esp pvp) and should be way better than it is.

  • Jajaja, this got free because couldn't be better than Wow and couldn't be better than anothers mmoorpg pay to play, jajaja, this is shit...

  • @Faustoteinmor Is this how WoW players talk?  I'm glad I don't play WoW then.

  • @Orlor Haha!, well not all WoW players, just the elitist fan boys who cannot see themselves playing anything other then WoW :P

  • @Faustoteinmor

    You're just an ignorant idiot who doesn't have a clue. Subscription based model has outlived it's day, and now Freemium is taking over. Though i guess you don't have a sligthest idea what that is either. Since launching Lotro as F2P, Turbine has more than doubled their revenue. Subscribtion model is thing of a past, as is WoW. Welcome to brave new world ;)

  • YEAAHOOO

  • is there any ex-wow player that find this game better?

  • @MuaBezGlave me ;)

  • @MuaBezGlave Not better no, just something different from WoW. I'm bored of WoW at the moment so i'm giving this a shot and from what i've played i'm quiet enjoying it :)

  • 19 people will pay...

  • lol gotta say that was original.

  • 0:37 the reson earth was created lol

  • 18 people want to pay for playing lotr online...!!

  • when I am "executing pre-installation actions" another box comes up and says error creating installation directory can anyone help me?

  • i've downloaded it...im playing like 2 days , i've saw like 5-15 people on the starting towns but i want to know if there is enough people who still playing this game so....at the next and biggers levels this game is gonna to be extremely great....let me know...thanks

  • @gi0pwnz With the layers system some areas might seem emptier than they really are since players are in different instances of the world even while on the same server, you can still talk to them and group up with them though.

  • @gi0pwnz It it actually loads of ppl playing this game. Not as much players as WoW , but hey , who wanna play that crappy game when LotRO is F2P ? :D I think this game is extraordinary great from the intro ! So yes , keep playing this game and enjoy the fantastic world of Tolkien ! GL HF ;)

  • this a truly good game

  • that was the worst thing that could have happened........ lotro turning f2p

  • Haha, their masking their utter failure of a game by claiming they chose to make it free to play, what dipshits.

  • LOL more like Forced to Pay....

  • Have the massive waiting times for logging on to servers gone yet?

  • i have shadows of anghmar....... it work?

  • hi, nice video. Friends and Subscribers welcome if you want to have a look at my Home Wind/Solar Energy stuff. I won a Green Design Contest with my system on Earth Day. Have a look if you like.

  • I like this game. :)

  • gandalf is lucky he has a hobbit secretary. my proof is that hobbits dont where shoes

    .

  • @cuteandcool33 Check the shape of her ears as well as her apparent size as he walks by, definitly a hobbit.

    But I think she shaves her legs and feets...

  • @grape387 thats cause she is sitting .... she is an elf

  • @Gustaveger

    I think I disagree, I just took the time to watch it in high resolution and fullscreen.

    Check 0:17, and tell me if thats a pair of hairy feets or not...

  • @grape387 ye they look pretty hairy to me, but hobbidts dont have ears like that

  • @Gustaveger

    Well, actually they do if we quote Tolkien himself: "I picture a fairly human figure...: fattish in the stomach, shortish in the leg. A round, jovial face; ears only slightly pointed and 'elvish'; hair short and curling (brown). The feet from the ankles down, covered with brown hairy fur."

    Matches, even if she might be a bit to slim to fit the description of the body, but thats the new moder hobbits I guess... :)

  • This is hilarious

  • lone lands is now free bitches. now start playing.

  • Is this game even worth downloading?

    Its been downloading for almost 2 hour's now FFs

    Hope is good.....

  • @GodlyCesar Two Hours to download? Mine only took 20 minutes. who is your ISP?

  • I bet half of those ''hobos'' doesnt even have a pc...

  • can somone tell me,is this just free to play,or its free od buying?

  • @Cr0Fighter sure you can download it play it for free, but when you reach level 50 (that will takes 1,5 month) you must buy an expansion that cost ~30$. Also all the time you play it, it says you must buy one or another thing to advange with your character..so it's not a realy free, you must pay all the time..

  • @Cr0Fighter Also Quest packs - not free enabling Legendary items - not free Instances - not free skirm - not free crafting guild(after acquittance) - no free skirm warrior(after 47lvl) - not free aucction house - not free traveling system (stables) - to higher lvl towns not free Monster play - not free gold cap 5 gold (that is very small amount) - not free (you must purchase for more) inventory bags 3 - for more =$ traits - not free pay pay and pay some more to play it...
  • Thank God I didn't pay for this game earlier! lol
