If you’d like your screen shot to be immor­tal­ized here, feel free to send it on over!

Today’s Ran­dom Screen­shot fea­tures my main char­ac­ter, an Elven Rune-keeper named Elu­veril. Her name trans­lates to “blue rose”, although I’ve not decided on a sur­name yet. This is on the main road in Riven­dell, over­look­ing a water­fall. One touch I love about this area are the lit­tle seed pods that float around. You can see a cou­ple rid­ing the air cur­rents behind her.

Right now she’s clear­ing up some bad guys in Ere­gion, get­ting ready for her excur­sion into Moria. My old main, Bran­son (on Glad­den), made it there long ago. This is only the sec­ond char­ac­ter that I’ve brought to the area, so I’m plan­ning on writ­ing up a bit about my expe­ri­ence. I’m excited! :)

Regard­less as to how you may feel about the cur­rent state of the Old For­est, the place still looks extremely fore­bod­ing. If you look closely, you can make out a bear start­ing to stalk me down.

Screen shots rarely do this game jus­tice, in my opin­ion. This is espe­cially true of the Old For­est, which is full of fog, light­ing effects and (in Direct X 10, at least) tons of shadow effects.

You can click the image above for a full-sized version.

I’ve not done a Ran­dom Screen­shot in a while. If you’d like to con­tribute your own shot along with a lit­tle bit of infor­ma­tion, I’d be more than happy to show it off.

With Mines of Moria offi­cially out, you were prob­a­bly expect­ing a screen­shot from one of the new areas. Sorry!

I actu­ally spent my time play­ing in Forochel yes­ter­day. My brother has a Guardian he’d really like to get caught up and he isn’t get­ting Mines of Moria until later today. I fig­ured the least I could do is help him out. Plus, in the mean­time, I get some rep points with the Lossoth.

You also have the bonus of a free rant!

I’ve not done a Ran­dom Screen­shots in quite a while, so I fig­ured what the heck. I man­aged to get a nicely angled shot of Evendim here. As always, click on the image above for the full res­o­lu­tion shot.

I find it kind of unbe­liev­able, but the area didn’t even exist upon launch and was added as a free con­tent update. Tur­bine has really been excep­tional as far as that stuff goes.

Not too much in the way of news flow­ing out of Tur­bine today. Still, with Mines of Moria only two weeks away as of today it’s hard to not be excited (and I imag­ine news fre­quency will con­tinue to increase as we get closer; last week was almost too much at once). I’ve not been able to pro­vide much in the way of exclu­sive cov­er­age of the expan­sion, unfor­tu­nately, but I would def­i­nitely sug­gest check­ing out LotRO Life for that.

They have some exclu­sive screen shots from the game, guides to classes, images of equip­ment sets and so forth. Obvi­ously this stuff is beyond spoi­ler­ish, but if you don’t mind that go ahead and check it out. They’ve been doing a very nice job cov­er­ing these aspects of the game so far.
