Since the last update I have experienced two problems:

1. When trying to open the LotRO launcher a command box would come up and flash on and off making the computer unusable. Thankfully this...

I am experiencing this at the moment. It has only happened since the last update.

I'm also experiencing this problem, 'Turbine invoker' box flashing on and off. I've done a System Restore to undo the update. The Launcher is now re-installing the new update, hoping it won't happen...

Do you have any experience with Novatech Finglonger? I've found these two laptops:

Thanks for the response guys.

It seems the Acer is probably a safer bet.

I'm not sure there is an option to have Windows 7 instead of Windows 8 with the sites I linked to?

Is it possible to...

(I have no idea if this is the correct forum, it was the nearest I could find, feel free to move it to the appropriate forum if necessary.)


Ok I'm getting another laptop very soon, nothing...

In regards to the height of the 'Window of the Eye' - I once theorised it would be level with the Sammath Naur but that was just me speculating. Is there any text which supports this idea?

As for...

One thing they shouldn't have changed was how Gandalf rescues the Dwarves from the Goblins in Goblin Town. If they had followed the book that would have been a really good scene, well suited for film...

I don't think 'taboo' has anything to do with it. These aren't actually races we're talking about (a 'race' would be the difference between the men of northwest of ME - Gondor, Rohan etc - to those...

There are a few paragraphs in the LotR (describing landscape and such like) that I tend to skim-read. Overall they're not a bad read but I prefer The Silmarillion and The Children of Hurin.

So which do you have a lack of knowledge on: the game or the lore?

There are umpteen examples of unnecessary and foolish additions to the game that break the lore.

Well yes and no. This suggests that both sides are equally valid.

One side accepts the RK because they either don't know enough about the lore or they don't care enough about it. The other side...

The type of mythology early on in The Sil is indeed very difficult to translate into a coherent and 'believable' format on the big screen. However if push came to shove I think they could do the...

I think if it was ever done it would be done in Star Wars format, maybe five or six films long to get it all in.

The only problem with that would be the sheer amount of detail and dialogue that...

The parts that got on my nerves were:

1. Some of the dwarf beards - or lack thereof.

2. The orcs and wargs just seemed even more overdone than in the LotR. Even weirder, bigger etc.

3. Those...

As for Hobbits - think of them as a branch of Men which long ago split away from the rest and took to living underground, gradually becoming smaller and smaller. It's entirely possible as even in our...

Hobbits were far too small to realistically have relations with the other races. Dwarves were simply an odd bunch; their male/female ratio was off, they were made as a society heavily male dominated,...

For one thing it isn't 'interracial' as they're essentially seperate 'species', not races. Secondly the 'thing' Gimli had for Galadriel wasn't a 'crush' in that sense. It seems people today when...

Half of the creeps camping GV are likely the same freeps who were zerging creeps and ezmoding a couple of weeks ago.

Did you expect anything less? It was obvious that if the tables turned with this expansion then the bottom-feeders of freep-side would slither over to creep side.

I'm not sure there're any issues in regards to a raid on Shelob. If we're talking about post Sauron downfall then it seems acceptable to me to have a raid go and kill Shelob. She's hardly something...

The war takes place over around 500-600 years from memory. I don't see why Turbine would ever need to reach its conclusion. Basically just keep it going. The epic quests wouldn't be over-arching like...

People will associate it with LotR, no doubt about that. But given time and the fact that there are three films - none of which have 'Lord of the Rings' in the title I presume - it will erode the...

Well those fans who want to play a game based specifically on LotR may well have been disappointed with this game with all of the: 'Turbine can't do that because of XXX' and 'That's a terrible idea...
