Dana from Game North breaks down the new holiday zone in Lord of the Rings Online, Frostbluff.
From the article:
"I was originally planning on doing this guide entirely in video, but since my desktop computer has gone through some unfortunate times recently, I was forced to scrap the idea. It would have been a lot more fun and entertaining to do a video. If you aren’t playing Turbine’s Lord of the Rings Online yet, there’s no better time than the present. The game is now free-to-play, which means you can download the game client at no charge. There is a cash shop but from my understanding it isn’t necessary to buy any of the items in order to have a good time in Middle Earth."
Turbine today announced the launch of beta client for The Lord of the Rings Online for Mac. Mac users in Europe can play the award-winning free-to-play massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) on Mac starting from today, including the recently released Riders of Rohan expansion.
Developers are turning to the free-to-play model in order to maintain player bases and gain revenue. Is this a viable strategy?
