I like that they kept real with the original game, the graphic is awesome yet still vintage looking and that's a plus about this game and the play through, nostalgia is a strong feelin❤

honestly preferred the old. The new is too much low hanging foliage that makes you feel claustrophobic then too much contrast on the buildings.

Nostalgia. Cant wait for this!

LOVE IT! This game is an essential part of my life

now i understand why i feel everything looks like shite today

Cool now from a 2007 looking game it looks like 2008... Such an improvement lol

elves made stone walls in celondim

wish they made the hud and other things look and feel a bit more modern

I always remembered old lotro feeling drab and lifeless.

Is it bad that I can't tell which is which...?

I'll always prefer the shadows of Angmar or Echoes of Angmar version over the over detailed laggy mess that is these servers are now

Considering it looks like 10% better but runs 80% worse, i'll take SoA thanks

To be honest, I think the most charme Lotro got back then was from its natural beauty. The new look mostly adds color, wich turns out bad in my opinion. Best examples are shown in this video: -Trees in Ered Luin, once blossomed mysteriously under the stars, have become a pink, bright, eyesoring nightmare. - min. 1:49 really got me laughing, because it looks like someone run the area through a bad "western movie" filter, with everything tinted yellowish. Dont even get me started about the blue sky turned into depressing grey. - Overall, grass looks nicer now, with details etc. but why is it never just green? There always has to be some pink/violett/yellow flower stuff stressing the atmosphere. Same colorful strategies are often used in modern games nowadays. We had enough wokeness, please go back to your former glory roots Lotro!

Played ever since it's release. I honestly miss the original version. Those were the days.

I really like the more toned down, less poppy look of the classic version :/

This is awesome! I would be curious to see more of these, such as the shire after all the michel delving and festival even updates, and angmar to blend in with gundabad, and the updated bree town. Anyways, amazing video!

Please do different regions!! Awesome video

This is why I hate it when all the Debbie Downers complain that the LOTRO folks never give the older regions the improvements that they want to see. The game has improved considerably over the years. It's an old engine, but they've gotten a lot out of it. Personally, I look at it as a style choice, at this point, like WoW's more cartoony style.. I love it. If it was updated to a new engine with 2024 graphics, it would lose some of its charm. Though, I'd play both. :)

I love lotro so much. My one and only game since 2007 ❤ Thank you for sharing.

Dat sure is a massive amount of artwork updating. 👍👍 100⭐

This was Awesome! Nice video! I am going to share it! :D

wow thanks for sharing. Can't believe the amount of progress they've made over the years. It's hard to tell when you're in the game every day, but looking back it's impressive. dropped a like.

Я еще ни разу не видел что бы так сильно ухудшали картинку. Зачем вообще было этим заниматься если вы только сделали хуже ? Новый дизайн пошел на пользу только снежным локациям, практически все остальные он испортил до безобразия ( исключения это 1 локация с лесом без розовых деревьев).

So when can we play it fully¿

I had no idea about Echoes of Angmar. This is exactly what I had hoped the legendary server would be - a recreation of the vanilla game in its entirety, similar to what WoW Classic is.

I remember The Greening of the Shire. I was there, 3000 years ago ...

Great Video, thx for that! Although i must admit that Live Lotro looks better in many areas, nothing can compete against the classic feeling with SoA

Can’t wait to play vanilla lotro again. Fine the only thing that is batter in retail is graphics but everything else nope

With a lot of work, EOA could patch the updated landscape into the old client. But there are more important things to develop at the moment.

is the Emulator online and playable now?

Played EOA beta and it feels like heaven. Tactical and the balanced classes. Feels so good to have the original game back on track. ❤

EoA >>>>>>> retail lotro. Graphics ok, might be better in retail although for me its a bit over the top and I also enjoy the graphics back in the day. And way more important, literaly any other aspects are better in EoA imho (except for some qol of life changes in few later books).

If you enjoyed the video, please like, share, and subscribe! I'm planning on releasing more comparison content, covering regions, cities, combat, and animations. And I would be very happy for any feedback on this video, so I can improve the next! Thank you! <3

Why the fuck does it have WoW music though

Why the WoW music 💀

Out of all of the LOTR soundtracks you decide to use a World of Warcraft one. I'm a big fan of WoW so I don't care but it definitely feels out of place. Nonetheless awesome trailer.

ooooo I've been wondering about a hardcore event. I'm guessing that this is going to be where we're not allowed to die. yes? Let me know how I can help with this project. :) left a like.

YES!

Best trailer ever made! Can’t believe it we are going home! 0:01

I didn't think I could be more hyped. Thanks for the video, and whereBeta?

This trailer had no business being that epic, lmao.

Guy's I'm already so fkin hyped, those god damn nice trailers make it even worse! 😅 This event is so awesom!

So excited for this!!!

Outside of dwarf getting squished and the headstone ( i presume that will be a thing) i wish there was more detail about HC itself in the video. Like are there grouping/trade restrictions, or penalties on skills or AH use, rewards, titles? Absolutely fantastic video all the same btw, never got a chance to play early lotro so count me in! Very exciting to see how passionate fans go above and beyond for what they love.

Great video! you never disappoint to hype us for this amazing project !

lol this trailer is better than anything SSG has done in recent years ....

Oh wow so cool trailer

IF YOU DIE YOU DELETE!!!!!!!

Amazing trailer, cant wait for the HC event!

Where Beta!!!
