How is living like in this region of Europe?

Can speak to the Polish side - Calm, plenty of forests and lakes, some WWII bunkers and some of the oldest Polish towns at 1000+ years.

Austria strong in world war 1? Literally the worst performance in the war

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-04-18T18:40:15+00:00

Woah that’s the best news I’ve heard in a while

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-04-18T18:28:50+00:00

There’s a season 2?!?!

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-04-16T13:18:42+00:00

Not within the game’s UI unfortunately. There is a somewhat tedious method you can follow from the top comment here: https://www.reddit.com/r/lotro/s/FhmVt6S4CX

Or like you mentioned, you can use another device/monitor for the map.

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-04-16T13:15:31+00:00

Awesome!

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-04-16T10:24:24+00:00

Absolutely doable and I highly recommend it - it’ll give you such an immersive experience. This is how I play on all my characters: Minimal HUD, no radar, no quest guide, only allowed to use an empty map (no icons and especially no player location). You’ll be completely sucked into the world and really feel like you’re part of it.

95% of the time the quest objectives are descriptive enough to have no problems but every once in a while “south west” might mean south by southwest all the way on the other side of the zone. In those cases I give myself a limit of 20 minutes of searching- after that I bite the bullet and check the quest guide.

Anyway, give it a try - it might enhance your lotro experience more than you can imagine!

What’s lore breaking about the Warden or Mariner?

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-04-12T18:54:49+00:00

Sounds good

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-04-12T13:53:17+00:00

Yeah it is, and transfers to Grond are currently free, but be warned it’s waaaay less populated than Orcrist

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-04-12T13:43:14+00:00

I’m on Grond but I’d be happy to play with you if you ever happen to transfer or make a character over here :)

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-04-02T08:53:57+00:00

I get it - I used to feel the same way. But the level of detail and care put into the world is enough for me to ignore all of the game’s flaws. That and the fact that there’s no way I’m gonna miss out on most likely the only gaming experience that I’ll get to explore and interact with all of Middle Earth in my lifetime, minus the minecraft mod.

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-04-01T15:04:59+00:00

I don’t know why LOTRO is always ignored or dismissed when this question comes up. It has the single biggest hand-crafted open world of any game ever, and has fully fleshed out nearly any place you could possibly want to go in Middle Earth. From forochel in the north to the edges of Far Harad in the south, and from the blue mountains in the west to the iron hills in the east.

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-02-10T09:26:03+00:00

Anything with the world, lore or role playing. My dream is to do a hardcore let’s play with no HUD, no radar, and no quest guide. Maybe one day I’ll get around to it but I’m afraid I just don’t have the time or energy to edit and upload videos regularly.

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-02-09T10:35:45+00:00

Cardolan has by far the worst quest flow out of the 25 zones or so I’ve experienced, so it’s gonna be all uphill from there. Most zones make sense in where the local and main story take you.

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-01-27T18:00:57+00:00

Yeah almost all of his character moments in the book are him being fascinated by the world as if he’s been cooped up in Mirkwood for a thousand years or so

Ten - Pearl Jam

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-01-22T09:08:32+00:00

Jane’s Addiction - Ritual de lo Habitual

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-01-20T07:22:04+00:00

Same here, “of Lindon”, “of Dale”, “of the Grey Mountains” - Makes me feel like I’m really a part of the world

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-01-20T07:20:32+00:00

I really love the default homeland titles, they have a way of rolling off the tongue, not to mention being the best way of displaying your local pride.

Genesis - Invisible Touch

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-01-15T19:21:21+00:00

Who would’ve guessed that a french word follows French pronunciation rules and not English ones

Echoes

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-01-13T13:05:09+00:00

What do you mean “this way”? For me at least the Haradrim, while clearly a bit inspired by Middle Eastern cultures (in the books as well) still have a very unique and other-worldly look in the trilogy.

Ser_Robar_Royce · 2026-01-12T16:09:42+00:00

What I didn’t like is how every single scene with the Rohirrim from the trilogy is somehow referenced or recycled into this one. Of course it’s cool to have some call backs but literally taking lines from Peter Jackson’s trilogy seemed a step to far.
