World of Xeen *Sighs*
What an amazing Game.
You first bought Clouds of Xeen, which had an incredible intro, great music and was very easy to play. You admired the new engine and graphics, compared to Isles of Terra and how cool the new monsters and spells looked (The gloomy, orange sky seriously helped give this game atmosphare, it was so *out there*).
Then later you got Darkside of Xeen, installed them both and gasped at the sheer size of the world, the amount of monsters, quests, spells and great storyline.
I miss those days :/
Ultima 7/2.
I read about the game in a magazine and when they explained how many screens the first town was, I *knew* I had to get it!
Then they told about the spells, about the intricate story, the lifelike behaviour of the citizens, inclusive working, going to the pub and at nights into bed and I think I had a little orgasm right there.
I bought the game as soon as possible, not even waiting for localisation, and spend NIGHTS playing through it.
Heck, I remember sitting for a few hours in Moonshadow, simply watching the NPCs going about their lifes, and I seriously mourned as the banes slaughtered everyone.
This was a game for the ages!
I so wish they would remake it, in a current day engine.. or heck, give us another WELL done part!
Jam it back in, in the dark.
