Used to be fun, but too outdated now

I played Ultima Online for three years, beta-tested UO:Third Dawn, and finally left to play EverQuest. I even came back last year to try it again, and it was the same old stuff... just a different wrapper on it. Ultima Online was a revolutionary game in its day, and was the ONLY game I played for a couple of years; it had all I needed in a game! But it has not grown with the times as many other MMORPGs have. After 3 years of UO, 3 years of EQ, a shot at Star Wars: Galaxies, and beta-testing Lineage II (a very good game), I am currently playing City of Heroes, and love it! However, if you're looking for a good fantasy-based MMORPG, I'd wait for EverQuest II. This UO:7th Anniversary Edition isn't worth the plastic it's wrapped in.

This game is so out-dated and the so called (new) 3D graphics are just horrible.
Al they add is new re-hued items.
Actually EA is selling the same old crap over and over again.
Because of E-Bay everyone had 100 of millions of gold coins.
I would not recomment this game to anyone.
This game once a great game but because of all the expansions and the splitting of land mass into PVP and non PVP, it lost all it had to offer.

A much better game would be Lineage 2

Still Enjoyable

When I first started playing Ultima Online it had just finished Beta release and despite the bugs and slow-play I found the game to be a refreshing change from the normal video games I had played. UO managed to keep my interest for three solid years. My fourth year in to UO Sony released the much anticipated Star Wars Galaxies. Which had superior graphics and a better overall game playing experience. I left UO for greener pastures and joined SWG, three years later and much to my dismay and countless others, the developer's at Star Wars Galaxies decided to completely change (for the worse)the game. With the new changes SWG resembles a mess in transition. Rather than enduring I decided to cut and run. I have come full circle. I purchased the UO seventh anniversary edition and have come to realize that UO is and always was the best game around. Although the graphics may be less than some other games the game developer's certainly have preserved the games' integrity and overall game playing experience. Whether you're 15 or 50 you are sure to enjoy the experience!
