Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar
"Questing is effectively the only way to progress, as LOTRO makes pure
monster bashing grind completely unfeasible. Around level 25, an
average monster might net you less than 50 experience points, while
your next level might ask for 30 000 experience points. Quests, on the
other hand can easily score 1000-2000 exp in one go. Elementary school
math tells us that doing a few dozen quests is easier than killing more
than 600 bad guys. Many traits also require questing, so in practice the
only way to play is to quest - and there are loads of quests. One zone
might provide almost 100 different adventures to solve."
Our epic review covers the game in immense detail, having tested it for
over a month, and tells you exactly what PC you'll need to get the most
from the game.
