    Well the fight in middle earth between the kingdoms of man, the orcs, and some dwarves struggling to remain relevant in a world losing its magic has been explored in meta writings. It'd be an interesting setting for a MMO.

    They just go ahead exploring the 4th age, the final resettlement of Moria etcpp. The story of ME goes on for hundreds of years after the end of the third age.

    It will go all the way up to 37th age, where only humans exist and people fight over oil. Thats Middle Earth at its best!

    That would probably involve spaceships, considering that we are currently in the 7th age which started after WW2.

    Quite possibly. However, because there will be no dwarves, oil will still be the primary fuel for the spaceships. Dwarves would do it better.

    But we still have dwarves.

    I assumed the game would end with the battle at the Black Gate.  Maybe with an instance for the Scouring of the Shire.

    Important facts:
    1. Free to Play games are poorly made.
    2. Casuals are not all idiots, but idiots call themselves casuals.
    3. Great solo and group content are not mutually exclusive, but they suffer when one is shoved into the mold of the other. The same is true of PvP and PvE.
    4. Community is more important than you think.

    The elves sail off to mysterious lands...and after a while the dwarves and hobbits decide to follow leaving only men behind to fight amongst themselves.

    Although he has some facial hair, I wouldnt call him a dwarf. Looks more like a hobbit.

    Being that Frodo never tosses the ring into the fire(Gollum falls into the fire with it)  I guess that means the game will go on forever. Which is sweet because Lotro is a great game ;)
