I only ever beat 6. I kind of feel bad.

And because of my Nintardism back in the day i was against online games. I missed out on Ultima Online. Would have been a better experience than the WoW experience post vanilla WoW.

None. Even though I've played a handful of them.

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #2 on:** November 27, 2013, 07:12:45 AM »

Sadly, none. I always thought they were hard as hell or became a bit too boring at some point.

I ony played 4, 5 and 6. I was more into the Gold Box games and Might and Magic. Pretty much beat all of those.

I had a terrible experience with Ultima 6. I bought it new and wanted to love it, but I must have had an underpowered computer, because the load times were excruciating, the gameplay was slow and I encountered some bugs and corrupted save files. It soured me on the series as a whole.

i played ultima online back when i was a kid,all i remember was being murdered by PK in some mine

a pal of mine was really into it and would often play with a female PC instead just so that the other guys would give him free stuff

I wasn't into the Ultima games back when they were new, unfortunately, and I've struggled to get into them in the years since. Just never have, though.

Same as GR above.

I tried Ultima VII a while ago, but I just couldn't get into it. Something about the perspective just turned me off. The universe also rubs me the wrong way.
I remember seeing videos of Ultima IX and reading about how you would need a Voodoo 3 or whatever to play it and all that crap but completely lost sight of it after that. Wasn't much of a PC gamer until D2 and Baldur's Gate 2 came out. The MS-DOS and Amiga era completely passed me by.

Loved the series as a kid but never actually managed to beat any of them. I would get really far in them but get stuck at some point and never finish.

Borys what is that list?

Overall? That is really small. I thought you were the man.

tiesto · « **Reply #11 on:** November 28, 2013, 12:00:41 AM »

I've played a good chunk of them (and now own the collection from GOG) but never beat any. I'd love to sit down and go through the whole series one day though...

Played Ultima - Exodus (Ultima 3) on the NES as a kid. Very confusing especially pre-internet era. I think it's what turned me off to first person dungeons. The music was good for a NES game, though. The castle, town and Ambrosia tracks were the best.

Himu · « **Reply #14 on:** November 28, 2013, 08:44:37 AM »

None. Have only played 4. Felt it was very outdated. Especially the controls which are confusing.

naff · « **Reply #15 on:** December 12, 2013, 09:42:36 PM »

Only beaten 8, I loved 7 tho never finished it, and got pretty far in 4 last year. When I was a kid I was sure there wasn't any game cooler than 8, fucking robbing niccas and being a badass pagan summoning devils and shit, if only they didn't fuck it up so bad and push out a broken unfinished game it would still be a classic today.

Polish people do. One guy from Poland I know has 244 RPGs completed

What sort of Polish person hasn't beaten any Witcher games?

I've beaten like 7 or 8 Ultima games. Played the shit out of the series as a kid.

Yeah, the NES port of Ultima 3 was the second RPG I've ever played (first being the original DQ of course). I still remember the battle music:

The Ultima 4 NES port was pretty good too...

3, 4, 5, 6, 7 , 7 pt. 2, 8 , underworld 1 and 2, savage empire and martian dreams

we have cleared exactly the same ultimas and have the same faves

my bruvva

yep. I honestly barely remember the worlds of ultima games. I bought them marked down when I was younger, but they were still pretty fun stuff. Something to do between replaying wing commander 2 over and over.
