Shamus Plays: LOTRO, Part 5
- Thread starter Shamus Young
- Start date
it may be sad, but you handle the drama well with your bitter sweet humor *stares at his shamus young pillow and sighs* yet another great one, and i still have a comic and article to look forward to.
i was thinking about trying LotR online out so i would get some of the references (you do a great job of keeping us up to date but still), but i feel like that would be cheating.

Oh you just wait til you get the Postal Delivery service missions...
Or the Pie missions.

Gaaah, normally I just gloss over this kind of stuff with my ample supply of Willing Suspension of Disbelief, but this image of the well from page 3 just jumped out at me and wouldn't stop punching me in the face:
How. Did. She. Reach. That. Handle?! It doesn't even look like Lulzy could reach it with her arms up over her head. If she tried turning the handle she'd have to be a few feet off the ground just to keep it going around in a circle! Or did she just haul the bucket on a rope straight up the well with her exceedingly muscular physique? Her immense, ogrish forearms?!
This will haunt me forever.
Otherwise, very entertaining!

Spiders and boars. Later, they even lampshade the latter by having a timed boar hunting quest that results in you not finding any boars, as it seems like it's the first area up to that point not to have tons of boars.Hellman said:Does this game have a massive hard-on for spiders or something?
Moosehowl- My thought the first time going through this instance was that when you throw the bucket of water, it's a very tiny amount of water that suddenly puts out a huge fire. They should have had you run back several times or something.
First time commenting on an Escapist... well, anything. I love this to bits, these sorts of quests were hilarious when playing the game. And I hope this continues up until Lulzy gets a pony, because I can only imagine the good jokes to be had.
As always, can't wait until the next one!

Almost makes me want to try LOTRO. Almost. Funny as always. But whether its due to the game or to Shamus' writing is hard to tell.
Awesome work Shamus, this series is one of my favorites on the escapist. Im curious as to which direction you will go in once you get out of the newbie instance.
Champions is turning out to be...*SHOCK* fun least until the nerfs hit everything...then it will be like COX was a year or so after launch...oh sorry we made this game for grinding and PVP not to have fun with....because PVP is serious business....heyheysg said:

This is a good way for me to play LotR online since I have enough MMO's to play at the moment I dont want to add to it, plus Im poor enough as it is
