I’ve recently returned to Lord of the Rings Online (as have several friends, thanks to the new studio announcement) and found myself getting sorely tempted to roll up a new character. I have never had a max-level Hobbit, which seems like a great shame. So far I am holding off, due to just how large the game is and how long it would take to get an alt to where I am currently, but the temptation still remains.
What tempts you into rolling a new character in an MMO? Maybe you think of a neat character concept, get class envy, or simply want a shot of fresh experience in your play. Perhaps the devs wheedle you with a new class or race. Let’s commiserate together on our inability to just stick with one character and talk about what pulls us back to the creation screen again and again!
