I don't understand how this is news. This is a comment that is based off of another comment to a politically charged news story that RG posted.
Richard has stated in the past that he's reached out to EA several times about buying out UO and not…

I still remember my heartbreak when UO2 got cancelled in 2001-2002…
Yeah, man I even remember the class I was in when I saw the news on yahoo.com lol.

If this ever gets released 2030 would be the optimistic date, but more likely they'll pivot to something like a survival game or MMOARPG than an open world MMORPG.
I feel like even survival games are no longer a viable sour…

So....
UO or EQ? Huh? huh?
UO and EQ both had/have their upsides and downsides, good points and bad points.
However, taking everything into consideration, I believe I favor the ov…

I am here, wish a MMO could grab me like UO did back in 1997, 1998
Same, mate. I went back to UO from 2020-2023, but I'd really like a new 'old' experience now. The game is still a lot of fun, tbh.

Ultima Online will always be my top go to game. It just offers something completely different than any other MMO has and that’s the living virtual world. Other than a few other titles I can think of, it gives me the sense of absolute freedom to do a…

Ofc, when gaming journalists praise games like Vampire Survivor for it's awesome gameplay, despite it having the most basic and shallow gameplay imaginable, maybe we're better off not having them evaluate the mechanics....

How is this not a thread about Fractured Online?
Fractured Online has come up often yet I haven’t tried it. What do you like about the game? Isn’t it similar to the UO rulesets?

I was one of the few people that played Auto Assault, and I actually liked the concept of the game. I even had fun playing it.
It had quite a number of drawbacks, and they really screwed up in some areas too, but driving …
"Fortnite is about to become a real MMO with LEGO Fortnite, and it blows my mind"
You can only play with up to eight players in Lego Fortnite. Not really sure that would be considered a 'real' MMO.

So I got pretty bored of WoW and was wanting an MMO with house customization and an amazing crafting system, with it being either a sandbox or a sandpark. On the list was ESO, GW2, UO, Tibia, LOTRO, Ryzom and Istaria
Well, E…
That was a fantastic read! Thanks for sharing the story.
I've been playing Ultima Online for well over 22 years now and the game—even in it's current state—still surprises me.
I've never heard of the Mondain's Embrace before or that this quest ev…
I can appreciate both games as the 'founding fathers' of the MMORPG world.
Ultima Online definitely was a complete virtual world. What I mean by that is that there was no order or guide telling you what you had to do or when to do it. You simply lo…

The 1st gen MMO = UO
The 2nd gen MMO = WoW (used to be EQ)
The 3rd gen MMO = Not release yet, and I don't see it coming soon...I wish I will be surprised.
