It was a goood game game but just like wow, not for everyone =).???
Oh, no, as I said - ' It's a shame what it did can't really be done by a modern game, not without using an older, more dynamically modifiable graphics format' - IE: Isometrics.

I have nothing against Ultima's choice of graphics format I just.. don't get why the backgrounds had to be shown at an angle about 15 degrees off vertical, and the characters at about 30 degrees off vertical. I know a lot of people were fine with that but.. made my head hurt x.x Just like how WoW's choice of graphics, while not in any way bad, still make me feel ill for some reason >.>
