Re: Where did you make your base...

In Black Gate, for some reason, I never really had a base. I'm still completely flabbergasted that I never had a base. I -always- have a base in games like that. I'm mystified. I'm Serpent Isle, I found that I stacked everything in the Serpent Highway. Warp gateways that are unlocked tend to be so c...

Re: Ultima 8 Free on Origin temporarily.

Well if you lose the disc, this is absolutely free. As far as I know, having the Origin Launcher doesn't hurt anything. I mean the game is just tied to your account, is all.

I think the Gold Edition has voices in it. Maybe a few bug fixes. Maybe. I hope.

Ultima 8 Free on Origin temporarily.

So Origin does this thing where it gives away a free game for some reason. Ultima 8 Gold Edition is now free for a while.

I really hope they can somehow accumulate $200,000 in paypal funds. That Underworld Toolkit looks really tantalizing. Who hasn't had a dream of building their own Underworld maps?

Re: Remaking the Ultima 7 soundtrack

These are amazing. I am quite impressed. Thanks so much for your hard work and diligence in giving these pieces the love they deserve.

I can't wait to see what you do with the Castle of White Dragon. It's one of the genre's creepiest themes. I love it. That, and the Ophidian Scroll theme.

Re: Creating Bloodspawn

One of the only reasons I can think of to keep the Stoneheart is to turn it into Bloodspawn for use as an ingredient in the more devastating spells. But combat is easy enough to the point where you don't need a Nuke to do what you need to do. Then again, you don't need much money either, except for ...
