    Not that I care about MMOs anymore (been clean for seven years at this point) but isn’t LOTRO still operating?

    Ah:

    If you’re desperate to roam Middle-earth in company, Standing Stone and Daybreak’s The Lord of the Rings Online is still trucking along with a small but steady audience, almost two decades since launch. The community’s recent doings include finally accomplishing a pilgrimage of desperately underlevelled hobbits to Mount Doom.

      Yes, but it’s based on the book license (?), not the movies. The devs were always very careful with the lore, avoiding direct interactions with the events described in the books. Wonderful game, I played it for many years in the past.
