Love it!
13:02 my first and only Gravestone :D :( Damn spiders and respawn. I hate guardian, only did it due to often missing guardians in instances later on. But made it to lvl 17 now my burglar
That's too funny!! But I hear you Guardians can be scarce later on! I've been really loving and enjoying every moment of the event so far! I remade my champ and have him up to 17 as well. A video with him will be coming shortly!
I’ve been playing this since it came out, I was 10 years old. The feeling of nostalgia is incredible.
It's such an amazing feeling to experience it again!
Yes! Mattyic featuring EoA hardcore event.🎉 Been waiting for the upload. Thanks for the video, keep em comming. Can't wait for the actual server launch though...
Glad to be able to make content for this project and community to help it grow and prosper!! I can't wait for the future of it when it goes live for everyone to love and enjoy!!
When is this being released
Hopefully sometime next year I'm thinking
lotro back in 2007 was the best mmo that time ...
FACTS!!!
Loving this server so far lvl 10 first character ever in lotr being super careful lol but better safe than sorry!
Glad you're loving it too! It's been a blast!!
It's nice to know that a new wave of players will be able to experience what lotro was when it launched back in 2007. It really was a completely different game compared to what it's become. Although some decent changes were made over the years, sadly a lot of what made lotro such an amazing game has also been lost.
Most significantly, the importance of each class, and the niche role they all brought to a fellowship/raid. The classes on live servers are all walking avatars of destruction, with great dps, self heals/oh &$^# abilities, good CC, and support abilities. Back in the early years of lotro, you needed to bring a balanced group for difficult encounters, because each class was able to provide an important function. Very much looking forward to getting to experience that again.
100% been loving every minute of playing it so far this weekend. A lot of good changes have happened over the years but too many changes have been to take away what made the game great. And from that the game has become a single player MMO. Its not a true MMO in my books anymore.
@@xmattyic3x505 you hit the nail on the head, it has become a lot like a single player game. Which is such a shame because the group dynamics and a strong player community is what made lotro such an amazing mmo in the early years.
Really appreciate vids like this, it's a nice copium fix for those of us that don't have the beta key yet.
I hope more people start to stream content from EoA, because as you pointed out, there shouldn't need to be concern over getting a ban from the devs on live servers, they should instead realise that the reason there is so much support for this project is because people have been disappointed with a lot of the things that have been happening with the live servers.
As the EoA team has proven, there's nothing stopping standing stone from launching a true vanilla server. They just don't seem to think it's worth their time, which is unfortunate.
@@aidynoconnor582 I hope more people start streaming and making content too! No one should be afraid of SSG, they should be afraid of us! The community! The people that the game is supposed to be for! A private server is where I think more and more people will come to when they realize the game is kept authentic to it's origins and what makes it one of the best MMOs.
@@xmattyic3x505 amen to that, keep up the good work 👍
4:20 The problem is just that they dont have the rights to (re)produce this. basic. and maybe not the best answer but it is what it is. Even though it wouldnt be fair to shut down *your* acc just for playing and recording it.
You're 100% correct, I just don't care really anymore. I'd rather spend my time on EOA lotro over SSG lotro anyways.
It's probably safe to say that most of the people on EoA discord don't care too much about retail anymore.
I for one wouldn't mind losing my retail account if that meant that I could play EoA.
As long as the developers won't demand money, nobody from SSG will care. They published the cease and desist letter last year, because they kinda had to, to save face more than anything.
@@gregormeglic2389 well put!
@@gregormeglic2389 SSG aren't the ones who will be going after this. It's the other Powers such as the Tolkien Estate that are going after this whole "EOA".
The Groups who own the IP for The Lord of the Rings Online do have a Right to go after those who infringe on this, anyone might not agree but there it is. If EOA shows signs of them making any form of Money, they'll be targeted again.
Does this mean it's open to the public now?
Yes there's another beta event and it's open to everyone now I believe. Just make sure you go to the discord and follow the instructions to get a key for access.
@xmattyic3x505 I'll wait till its released for all too play. Not too tech savvy so will benefit from àn easy download. Any update on its release to the public? Without keys that is.
@@gawainwilliams81 not anything that's exact on a date. If I went on a limb to guess it would be sometime on 2024
@@xmattyic3x505 Cheers for the reply and keeping us me and others informed when we wouldn't be otherwise.
@@gawainwilliams81 happy to help 😊
So this is what you've been doing? 😂
Yup!
So happy we are all able to play this again! Just got my key two days ago and having a blast so far trying to stay alive. The level of difficulty and thought that actually has to go into playing compared to live Lotro is such a nice change of pace and is much more exciting imo.
Yes exactly the difficulty and level of attention you need to put in is completely different than live lotro. I don't know if I'll ever go back to live at all.

F in the chat!
Never played LOTRO but everyone tells me its a solo MMO mostly except for a dungeon once and a while. That its basically a WoW clone. true? soloing all the time gets really boring to me. ill just play Skyrim if its a solo heavy MMO. thanks
This is lotro classic, when the game first came out was very similar to wow classic where it thrived off a community and players to group with each other for a lot of the content. It has a lot of aspects to it that obviously were similar to WoW because it's an MMO just like WoW had a lot similar to SWG and EQ. But Lotro had many things different than WoW that made it original and unique in its own way. I would say give this private server a shot when it goes live most likely some point next year then you can give a honest opinion for yourself instead of taking it from others. 😀
Hugely disappointed with the key system
why is that? I'm satisfied with it because we have no issues with multi-boxers, bots, or exploiters so far. They are doing what is right to prevent what happened last time. I understand being frustrated in not have been able to get one yet, but we all knew this was needed. And they have already said that it will eventually be open to everyone.
noob
Lmao 🤣🤣🤣
So happy to finally see it happening!!
The Hype is REAL!!!!
