<a href="http://www.rpgdot.com">RPGDot</a> has posted a brief <a href="http://ultima.rpgdot.com/index.php?hsaction=10053&ID=682">factsheet</a> on the upcoming remake of the Ultima II remake, <b>Enilno</b>.
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>The original Ultima 2 took place on earth and contained space travel. Enilno will have no earth and no space section. Enilno’s story will take place on Sosaria during the time of Minax and will reveal what happened there after Mondain's death. The story will begin in the castle of Lord British in Brittannia. What will unfold afther that is still unknow (to us) although it is sure that the political background will play an important role. On the Enilno forums there were some interesting threads regarding the map of Sosaria and the use of Moongates and Time Doors. Although there is a map shown on the site, there are many details on the lay out of Sosaria that might change. Moongates will probably not be used.</blockquote>

On the one hand, I like less sci-fi stuff. On the other hand, I love moongates. We'll have to wait and see how Enilno turns out.

What's up with all these Ultima remakes lately? There's at least three, if not more, currently in development. I'm too n3w sk00l for Ultima, thus I've never played, but damn--how worthy of remake could it be?

It really depends on which ones get remade.

And honestly, they really aren't. The concepts (moral philosophy in games!) that were the focus in 4-7 were a major step forward for the genre, but the gameplay was... less important.
