Lord British Returns To Ultima Online

Thanks to Origin for their news release announcing Lord British is returning to the world of PC MMORPG Ultima Online. The article trails: "Talk circulates throughout the land of the return of a figure from Britannia's past, whose whereabouts have been shrouded in mystery for these many moons", and GameShark has contacted NCSoft Austin, where Ultima creator Richard 'Lord British' Garriott now works (and where he has even introduced Lord British's character into Lineage), and reports that "Richard Garriott... gave [Origin/EA] permission to reintroduce the character into the world of Ultima. Origin apparently made a deal with Richard that allowed them to use the character if they had Richard's blessings."

    ... Then again, now that Garriott no longer has any rights to the Ultima line, which Lord British was always associated with, maybe he's just letting go of the past and moving on to entirely new ventures.


    I guess you won't have much time to fuck your girlfriend anymore either. *snort* *giggle* as if you've been anywhere near a pussy since your birth, you fucking sad little dork. And masturbating to a dark elf drawing in a D&D manual doesn't count. Freak.

    You reach a certain age, and you're supposed to stop with this childish crap.


    Which crap would that be, changing your mind every other day or dressing up in a costume and pretending you're a king?
