Add to that that LotRO provides a lot of grinding “pleasure” for min-maxers to get the last 0.1% out of their character at max level, so it probably is less alt-friendly than some other games. The other reason is that I made those pictures during a weekday evening in Europe, so the US population was still at work. That’s the reason Bree is so empty, I think. Also keep in mind I hid floating names, so it’s hard to make out who is a player and who is an NPC.

I noticed that there are a lot more people around in the Moria areas than in the areas before there, except for a couple of hotspots (Bree, and Evendim for the 30-40 range).

These are really good screenies. I couldn’t help but notice no other gamers in these photos, however. Why is that? (Some breathtaking vistas you’ve managed to capture!)
