    I’d love a new, good Ultima. But, I’m past the point of believing it could happen. I think there is a better chance of seeing a well done spiritual succesor.

      And if it does happen, will it be good?

      I had so much fun with Ultima III through 7, but it may be hard to recapture the magic.

      I’d argue we already have a well done spiritual successor, check out Moonring. It’s free.

      Personally, I never played the older Ultima games, I’ve mostly experienced them through YouTube essays. But, a solid 60% of the positive steam reviews for Moonring reference Ultima, as does the game’s own description, so I’d say it probably fits the bill.

          I’ll put it this way, the community that plays this game had to bully the developer into releasing a $5 megadungeon DLC just so that they had a way to give him their money. It’s quality.
