Sorry if I misunderstood. Yes, I've known RPGers playing The Lord of the
Rings without real concern about the conculture, which really bothered
the ones in the group who did care about concultural details. But even
the ones who were quite into the conculture didn't show much interest about
the conlangs (tho one or two of them sometimes asked me before naming a
new character, knowing that I was into the Elvish langs.)
