RIP LOTRO, it was fun and magical while it lasted. Now modern social justice activism is being prioritized over preserving and honoring the lore of Tolkien's world.

@JustSlaythe@lotro If I am gonna play a game of Ninja turtles I am gonna be fine with being a turtle. If I am gonna play a game based in Wakanda I am gonna be fine with being black. Why does the same rule not apply to LOTRO?
@JustSlaythe@lotro there should be 0 black characters in LOTR as they dont exist in Middle Earth. Its not racist to want the lore to be respected and not injected with SJW activism
@JustSlaythe@lotro Im sorry but sub-Saharan black men running through Bree and the Shire is entirely lore breaking if not more so than a bearded woman.
@JustSlaythe@lotro so you think these changes are good and follow the lore huh? Nothing to do with you wanting to push/force trans and diversity/inclusiveness into Middle Earth?
@LostHistory9 This is the final straw for me. after more than 15 years of playing and dropping hundreds of dollars in the LOTRO store, I am no longer going to support/play this game. These changes are so lore breaking. I know about 6 other people who are also gonna leave because of this
@MinstrelbyNight This is lore breaking and kills all immersion. SJW activism has infiltrated LOTRO and now we are to just accept that black men with blond cornrows running around Bree is a normal thing in Middle Earth? If they changed Wakanda to be more inclusive and diverse Id be equally pissed
@lotro Please revert to the character customization before update 35. It is so lore breaking that it kills all immersion. Please don't allow this modern day SJW activism be injected into Middle Earth.
