Fan-Developed Ultima VI Remake Released
An anonymous reader writes "20 years after the original game launched, a fan-developed Ultima 6 remake has finally been released! The Ultima 6 Project was formed in 2001 by Sliding Dragon to develop a remake of Origin's Ultima VI: The False Prophet with newer graphics and a more immersive engine. Soon assembled under the banner Archon, the team members, who hail from all over the globe, have set about recreating the world of Britannia, adding an enhanced storyline to bolster intraseries continuity and building on the Ultima legacy in a way that will please fans new and old."
You say that as if Oblivion and Fallout 3 are different games.
I notice there wasn't anything on the site saying/acknowledging the copyrights/trademarks of the original Ultima...
Queue up the DMCA takedown notice, and the inevitable "oh, the evil DMCA takedown notice" slashdot article...
No need Slashdot took down the site quicker than a DMCA notice ever could.
Alright, now that thats done, whos up for creating the Ultima Online 2 that never came out?
Actually it entirely keyed on the first four letters. When asking about virtues, you could ask about: humidity compression sacrilege etc...

The key difference, I think, is that Fallout 3 was good.
(Fallout 3 had some semblance of a plot. Oblivion had a handful of uninspired quest trees)
