• The Beauty that is LOTRO
  I can’t help but admire the beauty of LOTRO.  Especially when I’ve taken a day or two off due to other things going on in my life, when I come back I’m just impressed at how great the graphics are in this game.  From the landscapes, the clouds in the skies, to the characters, it’s amazing.  So next time, pause and take in the world of Middle Earth.  It’s so easy to get caught up in the drive to reach 50, completing quests, crafting, etc. and forget the things that impressed us when the game was new.
