How is LOTRO??
I can never get a straight answer... I myself am loving GW2 but my cpu struggles a bit to run it optimally.
It's a great deal of fun, actually. It's not far off the WoW path in any way, but it really loves to use huge, open environments that makes the world have a really nice sense of bigness. The animations, textures, and atmosphere are all great and it's helped by a pretty accurate portrayal of Middle Earth. My only 2 gripes are that a lot of the armor sets, especially early on, just seem kinda...meh. They're a bit too cartoony and bright for my tastes, and don't fit with the world to well, but it does get better as you go through. Also, i've reached a point in my Ranger character where i've done most quests that will get me any experience worth a damn, but im still not high enough level to enter the next area, meanwhile, any area that would work well within my level is locked off until i buy it from the Turbine Store. I may have just missed something, but my sister ran into a similar problem, and it's definitely something worth mentioning if you plan to put any real time into it and don't expect to buy anything.
To make this post on-topic, thank
god Guild Wars 2 scales you down when in low-level areas. I thought that was a stupid idea in the beginning because feeling OP in lower areas is kinda fun (not griefing people, just killing enemies that gave you hell in one hit is fun), but i really see how it's one of the game's most creative features.
