Lotro is the best MMo ive played since SWG pre NGE CU, it has a very mature user base/community , excellent graphics a great Epic story line.
Ive played it through closed and open beta and still have a subscription, abeit i only play as a Creep on Laurelin server nowadays but will go back to Snowbourn when the Mines of Moria open up.
fantastic game

I think i was initianaly paying £8 per month sub fee's,then started paying £15 for 3 month's sub,worth it but prepare your self for one hell of a grind fest
The grind fest helps with traits which help to personalise your character. Most quests you get are going to involve killing something or other so they do try and get around this by adding up to your traits.
It's an okay way of dealing with it.
When it first came out I got the lifetime sub. Think it was £100 and then no fee to pay ever. So I'm now down to paying £7 a month and obviously that will get lower with time.

Except you will have to buy the upgrades. So, as with every other MMO, you buy the upgrades but in this case the monthly fee is already paid.

camera is awful? as with, well, most mmo's? zoom in and out with mouse wheel, right click, position camera anywhere, what exactly is missing?
I did get an issue last time I was playing that every now and then, randomly zooming would stop working which really got on my nerves as zooming in and out to see whose around you and who you might aggro before zooming in to focus on someone to fight is invaluable really. If you have that issue, relog into the game, only way i found to fix it.
I think they are reopening the lifetime deal, which for people now planning to stay for years will be worth it. OR at least, I'm 99% sure they've redone it in the states which is run by Turbine themselves and Codemasters who run the game for them in Europe tend to screw us over often, so they might not do it here. If you look at the map, fully zoomed out, keeeeep going, then work out which bit we're able to play in, expansion every 1-2 years and you can see how long the game is likely to keep going if people keep playing anyway. Very concievable that if there is a player base there will be content over the next 5-6 years at least. Might grab lifetime if it comes back then the choice to replay now and then, and play new content is easier.

As a founder member it was £99 including VAT. So yes it has gone up (understandable so as a founder was supposed to be only available for this sub).

Have just started playing again (Since Pirates of the Burning Sea turned out to be utter crud 
) and have chosen to go on Laurelin (the English RP server) as friends said it has a good atmosphere attitude on there and I have to agree with them. The attitude of most players I've come across is mature and helpful. I Have chosen to play a Hobbit Hunter this time (Which is completely not the sort of class I normally play) to get a different slant on things and I am loving it, I've found I actually care about Miteno (my character) rather than it being a device to get as far as I can as fast as possible.
Definitely worth the sub in my book.
