This week there is not much news but a lot of fun. So much fun that we have 17 minutes of bloopers this week.

This week’s video highlight is 100% a LOTRO ad.  What I want to point out though is at the end the video there is text that says “Join millions of players.”  This is fairly surprising because the trailer came out three days before Free-to-play. Assuming LOTRO has gained many players since the change to the new pricing model, I wonder how big...

I was challenged on Twitter to make an outfit using Trech-helm. It’s an interesting Dunland quest reward – a grey hood with a partial face mask and only the face mask dyes. I accepted the challenge as I already use the piece in one of my Rune-keeper’s outfits. I love how this outfit fits into Lorien and Thinglad both color wise and...

This week we review Update 14 and Western Gondor. We also discuss hobbit film and Shadow of Mordor news.

  Here is a quick episode, recorded to take in some of the sights and sounds of Dol Amroth. I really like the music in this clip, I feel it captures the spirit of Dol Amroth rather well. You can listen to the full song by logging into LOTRO and taking a trip yourself to the South. If your character’s level is too low, you can buy a quick travel pass...

I feel like I can never recommend Eregion as a zone enough. Although the quests there are pretty simple (Kill 10 x, Defeat Signature Mob Y, etc) I just love questing there. I think part of it is just that it’s simple to go from one hub to the next killing and gathering and moving on. The travel times between quest hubs and quest action areas (where you do...

This week’s highlight is awesome for anyone who loves LOTRO music and Skyrim songs!  “Lotro Music – Skyrim/Sons of Skyrim”  was released in 2012 on reinjp’s YouTube channel.

Welcome to the second instalment of Dress to Impress. A series of articles which take a very close look at the cosmetic dress options in LOTRO. In this series I will be assisted by a pair of lovely daughters, who will be offering their own opinion of the dresses. Today we look at the Wash Day Dress. Available at the cosmetic item trader in Skirmish Camps. The...

This week we give our best wishes to Sapience as he will soon be leaving LOTRO and we also talk about the rather large amount of news that came out this week within and beyond LOTRO.

Continuing with the Gondor theme for Update 14, this week’s outfit is for a Swan-knight in-training! Not a whole lot to say about this outfit that isn’t included in the video. I really wanted to make a swan-knight inspired outfit but I don’t have the full heavy Dol Amroth armour that looks like the swan-knight outfits. So instead I opted for...

This week’s highlight is the good live action trailer to LOTRO that came out at the launch of Free-to-Play.  “The Lord of the Rings Online Free-to-Play Launch Video” was released in 2010. Do you know of a good LOTRO video and want it to be featured in this series? Send an email to lotroplayers.mymiddleearth@gmail.com with a link to the video...

This episode we discuss the huge amount of news from this week.

In this series I will be looking at the various dresses available to cosmetically wear in LOTRO. I will be assisted by Lizzy and Alesel. This first offering, the Common Long-Sleeved Dress available in the low level vendor Outfitters. It’s very inexpensive so a great first dip into cosmetic outfitting. Here is the dress with the default colouring, in this case...

This week’s video highlight is a parody of the Disney film Tangled.  “When Real Life Begins (MMO Parody)” was released in 2014 on Tymmy Dangerously’s YouTube channel.

  Lilikate explores the U14 Region of Western Gondor. In this video Lilikate travels by Pony from the Stable Master in Dol Amroth, Havens of Belfalas to Morlad in the Blackroot Vale. Even with my “not-so-good” graphics the Landscape is stunning. Music: Pale Rider, All This and Procession of the King are compositions by Kevin MacLeod. Windows...

On YouTube it was requested that I make a non-combat kind of outfit and this is the result! I decided to make an outfit for someone who has been doing a lot of traveling and sight-seeing throughout Middle-earth. The clothes are a bit ragged and the colors are all muted greys and browns. In the video I also mention that you can change out the backpack. I...

Hail and well met friends!  Andang here excited about finally finishing my commentary series of the Volume 1 Epic Story.  I started this series in November of 2012.  At the time I just had the microphone inside my laptop and no idea all the work that goes into making videos for YouTube.   Sometime in the early episodes I decided to start to read and eventually...
