Comments on: Changes coming to LOTRO’s Epic Chains? http://dragonchasers.com/2009/06/16/changes-coming-to-lotros-epic-chains/ But what will you do when you catch one!?

In fact I would like to see more MMO's use this set of thinking.

I became so frustrated with the epic quest line for this very reason. I understand if they keep the expansion quests group oriented, but I hope they continually go back and rework older ones.

Wow. That's really cool. I love the idea of options. I can’t believe I totally missed that bit when I went over the dev chat last week. Wow. That’s really cool. I love the idea of options.

Is it just me, or was Rubi-Ka a truly enormous world? It felt like there was always something new to discover. Yup. Is it just me, or was Rubi-Ka a truly enormous world?

As you mentioned, I much prefer to meander through quests and enjoy the details and found groups to be off-putting (even guild groups). It's a pity you and I never found time to play together a la Anarchy Online. Remember all those times we'd go over a ridge and just stop to gape at the views and vistas? :) I’d probably re-up my subscription and putter around in the world again, were this to come to pass.

Group instance quests in the middle of solo chains are a logistical nightmare even before the majority of players have outleveled them. This does make a ton of sense.
