Enjoyed the interview... I was most interested in his comments on the "long term" project (single player "Ultima"-ish rpg?). RG specifically mentioned using some of the Ultima touchstones, i.e. culture, language, history of the land. What I would most want to know is, are they planning to do what (in my opinion) was the best thing about the ultima games - world simulation (the using of any object, baking bread, changing diapers, etc)?

Very good interview. Ultima was the best series ever, IMHO with Ultima 5 being the best of the best. I started playing with Ultima 4 in December 1985. I really hope there is something new cooking on the burner for us.

You know what just occurred to me that I like about your videos, markeedragon?

No long, annoying opening segment with obnoxious music... You pretty much get right into it.

Hi there,

I wanna tell you that when I started playing this game and until I quit for good, I have never had the chance to play the game on OSI. I always played on a sphere server and enjoyed it so much, it was so magical, I can't imagine the fun and magic the original OSI world had. I miss it so much I wish I was 14 years old again playing Ultima Online.

@themanfromvault101 It seems to me that he wants to combine social and MMO qualities into his new game. I agree with him that the social gaming thing is what's happening, but I feel he wants to create a new MMO as well. Certainly a larger undertaking than UO originally was, and if he does so, then I feel that it's gonna be either a huge hit, or a huge flop. It can go either way.
