Is there any sense in getting either before F2P hits us?
Do you see any advantages at this stage? I can imagine the F2P purchasable features from Moria for instance, would cost more in the LOTRO store than a cheap copy at the games store?
Just wondering!
-
Id do it on the basis of getting all the features for one low price rather than a higher price after buying each possibly in the Points Store.
It does make more sense, especially if you can find it cheap.
And - while im not sure on this - there may be advantages to having these as far as the start of f2p system goes (you may start as a premium player giving more options etc)
-
if its cheap enough id do it, youll get 1 month VIP then your account will automagically be premium for the remainder of its life after that ;) plus youll get 500 store points for the VIP month as well.
Im so glad i purchased lifetime when this came out, ive had much more than my moneys worth (but then lifetimes not always good, not played Champions much after release, they fecked it)

Yes, I would definitivively buy the game now. Over here the basic game can be bought currently for 5 euro, and that is too cheap really :)
When you have bought the game you will have free access to all the areas (except those which are introduced in the expansions). It means after you go f2p you do not have to spen in-game "points" to buy access to those areas. Also, your account will become "Premium" after you stop playing (instead of f2p), which has quite a few perks compared to the totally free players (higher gold cap, more bags etc) plus 500 points which you can spend at for example removing the gold-cap or the limited bag-space.
So yes, I would definitvely buy the game before it goes f2p :)

Thanks for the advice! <3
I'm going to have a gander around town tonight to see if I can find it for cheapzor.

Back in the day when I bought LOTRO (< 1 yr I guess) I had to buy online, because no shop in Holland seems to sell it. So best have a gander online instead of downtown.
