Ultima Online

Correction; UO was the best mmorpg ever.

And I agree, those advertising images tell the whole story in two pictures.

From Origin Inc., the best virtual world mmorpg ever - a painting commissioned by noteworthy artists and included as a print for customers in the game boxes:

To Electronic Arts, an unremarkable weird outdated copycat mmorpg - a horrible highschool art project submitted for free by an EA employee's kid:

Why do you tools find it necessary to come and bitch every single day? I don't go to WoW's forum and bitch about how bad that game sucks.

If you don't like UO then play a different game. It's simple.

I find it much more amusing to browse the stratics forums every few weeks. Seems like regular paying customers are doing a fair share of bitching while paying.

Someday someone will get the balls to make UO 2, and actually follow through with it, I just hope they remember that gameplay is everything.  Darkfall is the only hope I have left, if it fails im going back to free t2a UO servers.

Yes, I have been reading up on Darkfall lately, and it does seem like this dev team is highly inspired by uo. Does anyone know if this indeed the case? Were they inspired by UO? It sure seems like it. By the way, I'm just curious, as I think this game is a fantastic idea, and I hope it succeeds. There has been many failures in the mmo market lately, and I hope this doesn't end up like those.

To today, this is still one of my favorite concept art for any game.  MMO, or Single player console.  THis painting brings back so many good memories when I first started UO.  This painting was the first thing UO i saw, it was the painting that you saw when you opened up t2a.  While patching I would just stare at that picture.  It really did depicte what UO was about.  The awesome storm coming in, the dragons and the defense. . .the role playing and the PKing.  Everything that painting is, is all lost now.  Like Seper said, you don't see ninjas in that picture do you?

I remember waiting for the patcher to finish while staring into this picture.  Brings back great memories of UO.

Nah not UO, everything coming out seems to be inspired by the king of MMOs WoW.

Brian, Buddy, Pal, read a lil on darkfall.  Its nowhere near WoW.  PVP, Looting, Stealing, Ship Wars, Destroying Player owned Buildings, no Safe zones.
