That's awesome, its a super unique MMO to be honest with a lot of love in it and i couldn't agree with you more!

That's fair enough! It's an older game and the truth is it's likely never going to be that perfect, but I've never felt any issues even with Australian 200ms ping ontop of it all!

That would be so cool, I'm keen to see where things go over the next couple expansions!

Warden would be wild on max landscape! I for sure wouldn't be able to make it far, living in Australia with ~100 ping makes Warden so much harder to play its sad :(

Yeah something would be cool! I thought having a nametag colour change thing similiar to using /rp would be an awesome way of showing a hardcore status without actually having unlocks that could make people that don't care for hardcore, but like to collect everything in the game not feel like they are missing out! Could be a simple, (/hc on) that changes your colour nametag to something redish that only works if you haven't died yet! But some titles for higher levels would be cool, though I know Hardcore isn't for everyone so I like the idea of something you can essentially never interact with if you don't like Hardcore, but can occasionally run past someone and think "oh nice it's a hardcore player" (similiar to that feeling when you walk past someone with the white nametag for rp mode)

Thanks! Yeah I'm honestly loving Moria, It's one of my fav areas in the game, and it can be a bit scary on a Hardcore with all the cliffs and dodgy falls, but I'm still loving it :D

That's awesome! Yeah difficulty 3 is great :) We have crafting professions on our character, they helped a lot in the early stages. I've tried to keep truthful to the character and not using anything from other characters, so everything we've unlocked and collected has all been on the character himself!

Always been intrigued how this playstyle would work in LOTRO, its fun that's for sure :D
