  1. @DarkestKale You can cheat. Hehe ;)

    It is easy to get lost playing the #Ultima games. There are just too many things to do and side quests that you end up spending more time away from the main plot. Not to mention, the “chat” format is so addicting.

    (And speaking of the “chat” format, that's what I miss a lot from #Ultima7 onwards.)

    The only Ultima I didn't cheat was from 1 to 4. #Ultima5 is so-so, I accidentally discovered the glass sword technique; then later used PCtools to hex edit. LOL. For #Ultima6, I ended up using “spam spam spam humbug” eventually; U7, yeah, definitely cheated; it's a good game, but I love the U1 to U6 game style; and it was hard for me to adjust to U7's.

    U8, didn't even finished. It was so weird. And finally U9, haven't played it. Tried DOSBox recently but I can't make it work properly.

  2. @benjedwards Mine is #Ultima6, #Ultima5, #Ultima4, #Ultima7 (both parts), and #Ultima1.

    #UltimaVI because I like stories involving other races and worlds. And in Ultima, a new set of principles and virtues as well.

    #UltimaV because of Lord Blackthorn. He was misunderstood. He meant well, just happened to associate with the wrong powers. LOL, I always wore Blackthorn's amulet insstead of the Resistance. (Because Resistance is Futile!)

    #UltimaIV. I love a good challenge. How to achieve all 8 virtues. This is the kind of #RPG that is lacking in popular “RPG” games today, offline or MMO.

    #UltimaVII. Because of the The Fellowship. I actually like their ideals, it makes sense. Like Lord British (at least in the game), it's supplemental to the Axiom of Infinity, not a replacement. Then Part 2, adventure in yet another world with its own set of virtues!

    #UltimaI. The one and only chance to visit all four continents on the planet #Sosaria freely. Even Shamino had his own kingdom. If Sosaria was not torn asunder, there would have been more amazing stories to tell. Maybe they have their own #Avatar or something. Or, they developed technology from those advance ships that crash landed on Sosaria.

  3. @kiwired I am certain there have been attempts to remake #ultima6 using the #exult engine, and I'm pretty sure there were tries for #ultima5 too, but I'm not sure they ever were completed. There's been many reconstruction projects over the years but few that really panned out, from my knowledge. #ultima #ultimadragons #udic
