This reminded me of Ultima IV, V, VI. You can't enter the Shrine of the Codex of Ultimate Wisdom without permission from the two guardian statues. #UltimaIV #UltimaV #UltimaVI

I am doing one of my periodic revisits of 'Ultima VI: The False Prophet.'
Oddity I never noticed before: your first mission in the game is to talk to the survivors of a failed attempt to liberate the Shrine of Compassion to gather intelligence to support your own attempt. However, the survivors are in Cove, and the road to Cove goes THROUGH the Shrine. #UltimaVI #gaming #ClassicRPGs

From The Compendium (players guide to #UltimaVI circa 1990).
The Ultima games were influential to me as a kid. I’d spend afternoons just reading these pages, imagining what this fantastical world would be like to inhabit.

Things I did from age 6–19 because of the #Ultima series:
1. I lived by the 8 Virtues
2. I founded “The Fellowship” in our school (w/o our school's knowledge)
3. Tried the Mandrake virtues (j/k on this)If you think that was it… in 2003 I founded the #HolyOrderOfTheLight a multi-game, multi-region gaming guild.
Guess which #Ultima virtues guided me?
“The Axiom of Singularity”
I even wrote this: https://im.youronly.one/yuki/ultima-6-virtues-guild-management-2006356/
“HOL” is still kicking. ^^
That's how influential the Ultima series is for me. It shaped me. It taught me. It's a part of me. #Avatar #Avatarhood
What's your #gaming life story?

@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.

@amigalove I recognized that immediately. Don't know why it maze me also think about this very specifically. Even if not related.

By popular demand (thanks to @vga256), have catalogued "The Official Guide To Ultima" into #TheVideoGameLibrary.
Both the 1st and 2nd Editions are listed. Everything you'd ever want to know about the saga circa 1992.
What's your favourite #Ultima game?
