I am glad the horrible writing I witnessed was only temporary.

Read it as "horrid wilting" - that's definitely not temporary in this case.

Three buildings is a city in a 2013 game. Alright.

Jaesun taxalot Gotten any interesting emails?

 

[taxalot]

I did not. But I would not be surprised if they blacklisted me.

Unless you are speaking about this : "You Could Have $1,500 Cash Wired Into Your Account - Apply Now " , which I should investigate shortly.

The bank, the shop and the temple, every adventurers need fulfilled why bother building more and add such nonsense like lore ?

It seems they fucked up and used the wrong U4 city for that one btw

So, just to be clear, this game has absolutely zero appeal to a fan of the original games, right?

Other than the nostalgic references, not really. It might be a fun mobile casual F2P thingie on its own right though, if you swing that way

 

[taxalot]

Yes. As I said in my NDA breach which was full of hate, it's pretty good for a Free To Play casual handheld RPG. The only shocking things is whenever they try to do an Ultima thing, because that feels horribly, horribly wrong.

Do they think they're doing themselves a favor posting the Ultima VII trinsic alongside their one ?

Obviously, the new Trinsic is a huge improvement. The old one had more buildings than could be counted on one hand! Do you have any idea how much that would confuse modern gamers?

 

[Infinitron]

I may be getting one of these in the mail soon

Not all hope is lost - you may just get some anthrax instead.

 

[taxalot]

Is this for all the alpha testers or did you do something special to get these ?

All alpha testers.

 

[Micmu]

[taxalot]

Did you receive an e-mail confirming that ? Or is this some kind of surprise ? Because I moved
