    WAR has a lot more players, but an absolutely terrible endgame. LOTRO has a smaller playerbase, but the endgame is a lot of fun. So, those are your choices.

    I agree:

    LotRO = PvE

    However, I'd say:

    Warhammer = PvPvE

    But, go with LotRO, better storyline, bigger community.

    i dont see the fun in pve... public quests fails so hard because of the low pop size
    I only played the trial for WAR, didn't much care for it, primarily because of the PvP and public quests. I don't like PvP at all, so it was no fun when you got flagged for PvP while on a quest. The should have made it an option that lets you opt-out of PvP.

    yes comic, i was truly disapointed in wasting 40$ on it.

    i was expecting exactly classes and copies from the RTS 40k series..

    just think of humans with chainsaw guns, orcs with shoulder rockets..sss *drools*

    iinstead, i get this bullshit mirror class system. I have to say though, it was fun for a while (Tier 1 to 2)

    I am glad I didn't pay for it. Anyways, there are much better games coming out this year, single & multiplayer games, I know my money is going to be spent on both. If they made WAR free and gave you the option to opt-out of PvP, then I'd possibly play, but who knows.

    rings is pretty good at first, but you start to get bored in the 20's only fighting ai. if you like pvp, warhammer's first 11 levels are better than the entire lotr game.

    Well I'm going to have to say WAR. I find no point in playing a p2p MMORPG without PVP.

    you don't have to pvp at all in warhammer. i don't see why you would do that though. warhammer's pve is a bit lack luster compared to other games(end game content-wise, but there are TONS of quests to do to 40). most people level purely on rvr and scenarios.

    If your a PvE fanatic, then go for LoTRo.

    If you like PvP-ing on a huge scale, then go with Warhammer Online.


    Then again both have trials, so you can always try for yourself.

    Like many said before.

    LOTRO - Much PvE, almost no PvP

    WAR - Much PvP, almost no PvE

    Then you shouldn't be playing Warhammer. You shouldn't have even tried to play Warhammer when you knew from the start that it was an RvR based game. Why would you play a PvP game and then not PvP? How does that even compute in the world of logic?

    Welll. . . lotro is fun, but I stopped today, 'cause erm I missed the whole "Wow, you lvld up, now bash someone's head to see the results" concept.

    It's such a shame. I'd like to play a Zealot that isn't broken at some point.

    But I've never played LOTRO and I can't say I will ever really feel like playing it, so I guess I can't really vote on this one.
