So yeah, I just installed DOSBox, curious what all the fuss was about. Then I went looking for some old RPGs and found Abandonia.com. First things first, I wanted to try The Stygian Abyss, I was very curious about Looking Glass' first game. It's surprisingly good looking, certainly owns the much praised Doom or Wolf3D. Anyway, I have a few questions for you old school role-players:
1. Why can't I download Betrayal at Krondor for example? Or Eye of the Beholder? I'm guessing I have to buy them... but if that's the case then why are they on Abandonia in the first place? Anyway, anyone know how I can procure these oldies without the fuss of torrent clients and shit? Although I guess I'll end up there if nothing gives... I heard tons of good things about Betrayal at Krondor and really want to try it.
2. Out of the following RPGs, which one would you definitely play?
Bard's Tale series
Darklands
Lands of Lore
Wasteland
3. Out of the Ultima series, which one's the best?
4. Know any more sites a la Abandonia?
