Let's Play Ultima VII 95: A Key Guarded by Tentacles

[storrs19]

Don't you love how things wind up in out in the out of the way places?

[Ixnatifual]

The magic items have no relevance to the plot, and there's plenty of items to go around elsewhere. I never knew how to get a hold of these and it was never a problem. Origin did put in a keyring, but not until Ultima VII part 2 in the addon pack.

[micearenice2]

there is another key for the locked room hidden in the blacksmiths bedroom under some clothes.

I think the point is that you aren't *supposed* to rob the castle. But's cool that the option is there however cryptically hidden.

@Fenyx4 If the player wasn't supposed to be able to get in there, then why have a key for the door at all.

-Insert hentai tentacle joke here.-

Now i know Lord British is a nutteir then squirel doings but that key is just cripticaly hidden.

Heh, Kiko finally dropped the useless gauntlets.

While watching him getting lost right next to his destination is fun and all, I wish he looked at his bloody map sometimes.

[Morgius87]

seriously, who is able to figure that out by themselfes? A thousand keys and a thousand locked doors :P this game needs a keyring for real.

If you dont play it like Kiko and just rob everything you wont be able to open more thant 10 doors or something like that. xO

@Morgius87 Back at the time when this game came out, there wasn't as many major games released in a short period as compared to nowdays. IIRC, Wing Commander 2, Ultima 7, and Mechwarrior were the "major" games of that time period. Since there werent as many games, people would just play 1 particular game for hours and hours for months and months. Thus, you would eventaully figure out even all these cryptic things.

I really enjoy games that I can spend a lot of time on because there is so much to discover or achive but my love for games has its limits. I spend a lot of time with ultima 7 and the SI expansion and I have to say it was really fun. But after all I have to say I thank whoever came up with that idea for the keyring in SI. In the end the key madness in black gate wasn't that bad at all... I just threw the keys away that achieved their goal and thus it wasn't half as bad.

Gee, those tentacle monsters really wanted a piece of the party, Janna must be quite good looking. lolz

@TheTKForce
