Probably some Saudi law.

They did, they called it Dragon Age and we all saw how that abomination ended.

mobile gaming is concentrated AIDS

a final sendoff for the series would be nice but I doubt it'll ever happen

Modders are remaking Ultima 8 in the Ultima 7 engine.
Must be autism

Because they still can't figure out what a Paladin is.

I am actually kind of suprised that they haven't tried another Ultima Online. I'm sure I'd be disgusted by their implementation, but the potential for monetization/long term return in investment is there.
As for the main series, it'd simply be too big of an investment for the level of associated risk. The brand power wanes with every passing year.

Because Ultima was only good when Garriott was a nerd with ambitions and was lucky to be surrounded by very talented people as well.
Elder Scrolls effectively replaced Ultima anyway

I want an isometric remake of 2 that's actually fleshed out so you aren't fighting orcs and rogues in pangea and on venus

MMOs are a genre nobody wants to get into after the "wow killer" era, at that point it became safe to say the existing MMOs had become a lot of people's "forever games"

Garriott is constantly trying to buy back Ultima from EA to do exactly that, they keep blowing him back

Because Richard Garriot is semi retired, and who the FUCK would make it?

>>732355751
I mean you expect Horny to be greedy and avaricious. Can you imagine the disaster of a new Bioware ultima? Or worse, microtransactions conflicting with virtues? I'm about to lose an eighth just thinking about it.

WoW sucks donkey dick and so does anything trying to copy it.
