pros n cons, lotro not based on movie?

[Hayalyby]

hey i read a lot of topics bout whats good or bad bout the game having nothing to do with the movie, i mean no workin together with PJ, ea, n such.

I think its good for the fans of the books, n people that only know it from the movies.

whats a real downside for me , is no movie license no Howard Shore... :(

I mean he really nails it with his epic sounds in the films, thinkin when they entered the great hall in mines of moria, n when rohan stormed upon mordor army at gondor.

anywayz whats it for u lads?

I'm glad it doesn't follow the movies as they missed a heck of a lot out, but I must say that I am not overly impressed by the music in game although it does a reasonable job. However, thats the only thing I'm not impressed with .. everything else is great. I wouldn't have Howard Shore do the music though, I'd rather a composer who knows games and for that I'd choose Jeremy Soule.

If by some chance you have never heard of him or played Morrowind / Oblivion / GuildWars then you can listen to some of his music here > http://www.directsong.com

yeah i know
think they would run outta buget, or no updates if they have Howard composing all teh music

but it would have been great if it was just for the epic quests n raids n such
