Thats definitely a good way to put it. I like my lore, but I find interesting new crazy lore to be... Interesting and crazy. LotRO is a good game, and it does have great PvE but a total lack of good PvP. The main appeal with the lore in LotRO is it's so established and fleshed out, it's the ultimate "We did it first" of all games because any fantasy book, movie, or game since Tolkein has borrowed from Middle Earth.
The blog is mostly for my use as a journal to track what I'm doing so I don't just **** off and download some other MMO to try for 5 minutes. Actually going in-depth and writing what I do and don't like about each game and tracking what happens so I can compare is just helping my playing in general. I only started this today but it's almost like a meta-game, such as my IRL quest for the game each game is to join a guild and get to a medium level, etc. Totally unneeded, but whatever. It's there.
