I have a lifetime account at LoTRO. Whenever stories about games based on LoTR come up, I am always hoping it will become something awesome, but they all just seem to flop. The ownership rights of the IP are also so fractured and convoluted, it's kind of a miracle anything actually gets made let alone made well. Maybe someone will actually step up at some point to make a game that really embraces the magic in Tolkien's universe, instead of trying to change it and them calling it lightning in a bottle.

It's unfortunate isn't it. Kind of reminds me of my beloved Halo universe. Most anything that comes out is just hot garbage and it hurts me. I'd even take something mediocre at this point but most of it is just bad.
