This was not a game I ever expected to play. But I have no regrets, as it turns out to be one of the original reasons why we got so many RPGs, JRPGs, Dungeon Crawlers, and many more. The original of the Ultima games. Although not the best RPG, for it's age, I had much more fun than expected. It is definitely a revelation of it's time and I respect it.
