Funny bug in the original

Post by Gruck »

Just a weird thing I noticed in the original Ultima VII:

It is possible to kill Cador in a bar fight, and then tell Yvella about where Catherine goes at noon. This creates the interesting situation where Cador lynches the gargoyles despite already being dead.

Wrong Ultima?

No. It's a reference to possible events in Vesper in U7.

Oh. You are right, I completely forgot about them.
I guess this means it's time to replay U7 again. If only I had the time. :(

Makes me wonder about similar things you could do. DOUG the Eagle already has noted saving Alagner's life by killing him before Hook does, and resurrecting Owen only to have him kill himself again. What else is there... I wonder if killing Weston before asking Lord British for a pardon would have any effect on his conversation or his wife?

BTW - does Cador appear in any earlier Ultima?
I'm asking because TDI said "Wrong Ultima?". Was it a reference to previous part of the series, or just a mistake?

Well, there is Kador in U6, but since he's a talking dog belonging to Zoltan's Gypsies, there probably isn't a connection.
