Any how... Check out local forums and the insane rate of grinding they have to do to progress anywhere.
RoR is pretty decent expansion with those war-steeds, but it crash for many people each 5-10min and turbine cant really fix it.
Though i agree, there is way to much stuff to buy seperatly for a b2p game even, thats why the game is going down really fast. I barely see someone online now on my server, and as i see turbine make more regions for free to get new players.
Also the fact that the expansions are locked unless you buy, and you can't earn, is another reason this game doesn't interest me. All content should be available to all players in a free to play game. Micro transactions should be more towards cosmetics, mounts, unique items, exp boosts, etc. Not game content and power. There are a lot of games out there that prove how to do it right. League of Legends is a perfect example of this. LotRO is clearly not one of them.
This does not really interest me as 70% of stuff in that game requires a subscription, or buying it.
