Would such a title be exclusively for the Far East market (as LOTRO is currently not available there) or would it be a global concern directly competing with Turbine’s LOTRO?
Exactly what sort of MMO would such a new LOTR based game be, as the very term MMO is extremely elastic these days. Would the focus be on RTS or PVP?
Would Warner Bros. run two games covering the same franchise simultaneously? Lucasarts did not and thus cancelled SWG before the launch of SWTOR.
Would a new LOTR based game be subscription based or F2P?
What exact franchise would any new LOTR MMO be based around. The Peter Jackson movies (like games such as Lord of the Rings: War in the North) or a unique vision of Middle Earth as with Turbine’s LOTRO.
