I like LotRo, I like questing and exploring new areas. LotRo is making an expansion - expansion means more LotRo for me. And it has Rohan in it. Why would I need to know the specifics? (Disclaimer: Having just bought another game I am not buying RoR at this time but I will buy it.)
But the region and mounted combat is free, afaik. The expansion mostly looks like a quest pack for all the information we know about it. So yes, we know what to expect from an expansion, hence why so many people aren't buying it. They've yet to show us if it's good value for money.

Both Rift and WoW are adding 6+ dungeons and 3 raids each, as well as a ton more content, what RoR is offering in comparison just scratches the surface: neither of these even have a release date (afaik), yet we know more about them than we do about RoR.

I don't play either of these other games but I can't help envying those that do, since they seem to be getting more than their money's worth.
