OK, so a bee­tle isn’t the most excit­ing thing in the world, but I’m avoid­ing look­ing at the super cool stuff. Sorry!

Now that the NDA has been lifted, LotRO­Life has been post­ing quite a few screen­shots pro­vided by a player going by the name of Hell­fanger. The screens are from all sorts of areas in the beta for Mines of Moria,  includ­ing Lothlo­rien. There’s even a new gallery of equip­ment sets.

Head on over to the site to see more if you’re inter­ested. The site is updated reg­u­larly, so be sure to check back when you have a chance.

Now that the NDA has lifted, Mas­sively has a new arti­cle up about Vol­ume 2, Book 1. This new epic quest starts off Mines of Moria. Mas­sively explores each chap­ter, obvi­ously offer­ing spoil­ers galore. In fact, the arti­cle can act as a walk through, in case you’re look­ing for one later on.

As I men­tioned pre­vi­ously, I am not per­son­ally inter­ested in read­ing such things. I want the game to be new and fun to me. So if you’d like to read it, be sure to check out their site.

I’m sure Mas­sively will have plenty more about the beta up, so if you want to be up to the sec­ond with their news be sure to check out their LotRO cat­e­gory.

Mas­sively is report­ing that the Mines of Moria NDA lifts tomor­row. That means all sorts of sites and peo­ple will be unleash­ing tons of infor­ma­tion about the title.

I plan on report­ing on any­thing big here, but hon­estly I’d like to go into the game semi-fresh. If I think some­thing is a bit too reveal­ing, I’m prob­a­bly going to avoid read­ing it in its entirety. Expect some infor­ma­tion on classes, upgrades to sys­tems and so forth. Just don’t expect me to ruin books, sto­ry­line and other major points of interest.

I’d love to be able to give some­thing beyond sec­ond and third hand infor­ma­tion, but unfor­tu­nately I was not accepted to the beta. If any­one has infor­ma­tion they’d like to con­tribute on what’s changed, thoughts on the classes or screen­shots please feel free to send them to me. I’ve updated the Con­tact MMeOw page with my actual e-mail address just in case you’d like to use that or send attachments.

Thanks!
