This month's PC Gamer records how, since 2004, a band of Ultima fans have been working on a new ending for Ultima IX: Ascension, inspired by Richar dGarriot's original concept.

 

...

Ultima IX: Redemption is actually a Morrowind mod so will require that game and both expansions to play, but will have a completely different interface, skills system and mechanics. It's far from complete, but head to http://ultima.cfkasper.de/ to show your support for an admirable effort.

PC Gamer, issue 151, August 2005, p21. My highlighting. :D

Ultima is no longer relevant.

Lets not go through that bullshat again, shall we. Instead of making stupid alterations to what I said, then pronounce it fix why don't you actually state why you disagree with me, hmm?

 

I mean, that would actually be forwarding the discussion instead of your immature post, Role Player.

 

Ultima is no longer relevant for several reasons:

 

Origin as it was when Ultima was made no longer exists.

The series is no longer being continued or supported by its owners.

Ultima 9 was crap to begin with.

The same way you do with others' posts, right? Hypocrite.

Funny you should accuse me of immature when you very first post here was immature to the bone. Why didn't you explained your reasons first instead of coming up with your recurring pointless, "all is doom" one-liners? Hypocrite.

To quote the great, missing Volourn, you lose. R00fles!

It is irrelevant to those who played Ultima and well sick of how it was systematically destroyed by Electronic Arts. Also, all is doom until I see proof otherwise. Besides, who really gives a f**k about winning or losing an argument on an internet forums. Those who do really lose.

Um, that's the point of the mod.

So, you officially speak for all that played Ultima?

 

and well sick of how it was systematically destroyed by Electronic Arts.

 

And as we all know, no game conversions, mods or remakes must be made if the original games were badly treated by their parent companies. So sayeth the Official Spokesperson For All Those That Played Ultima.

 

Also, all is doom until I see proof otherwise.

 

Translation: "It's doom because I say so without anything to back up my word. Fear my man rack!".

 

Never change, Hades. For without examples, no one would strive to avoid being an idiot.

Man, RP, aren't you being a real ass today.

I'm an ass everyday. Sometimes, someone else's ass. And my assery is triggered by other asses' assery, so it all fits in the end.

I do not want to know about your ass and what's being fitted in it, RP. :lol:

Trust me, sometimes neither do I. Better wait it all ends as quickly as possible.

Doesn't change the fact all is doomed.

 

Of Ultima mods the only one I have seen actually completed was the Ultima 4 mod for NWN 1. Played around with it but wasn't really overly impressed by it.

You can always go and tell them that, there's a forum at the end of the link I posted, above. :lol:

I didn't think Ultima IX: Ascension was crap at all. Quite the contrary. But on the other hand, I didn't think it was an Ultima either :lol:

Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

You played a mod of a chapter in a series which is no longer being continued or supported by its owners? What is the world coming to?

 

 

Oh, and hypocrite >_>

If it doesn't, it should. Or did you white out the word in all the books you keep in your house?

Nope and nope.

yup...

 

btw, 7 was good, 8 was terrible, 9 had oh so much promise but really diverged too far to be interesting. once they fixed the major bugs, however, it was not a bad engine. particularly for when it was released.

comrade taks... just because.

If it doesn't, it should. Or did you white out the word in all the books you keep in your house?

 

*whites out words "finger" and "twiddle" in all the books in home*

It would only be Redemption if EA comes clean on their systematic destruction of Origin and makes a real Ultima game. This is still only a mod.
