On Par with Radiance? What Has the Pursuit of Group Content Cost Us?

Greetings, everyone! 🙂 From its very beginning, the path to Mordor was fraught with peril for those of the Fellowship of the Ring.  Likewise, the path toward Mordor taken by Turbine also has its risks and perils.  How much development to put toward one aspect of gameplay over another cannot be an easy decision to make!
