I'm thoroughly unimpressed. Feels exactly like WoW to me. I'm sure it'd feel a lot like other MMOGs to me, too, but WoW and CoH are the only ones I've played. And I've already left WoW, so I see no reason to start playing it again with the Hobbits instead of Gnomes. Maybe if it captured the epic feel of the books and movies better, I'd feel more inclined to give it more of a chance. I'm sorry, but the Elves of Middle Earth do not go around trying to deliver pies for lazy Hobbits. And then have the pies stolen from them by even lazier, fatter Hobbits.
