How were you supposed to know?
>>736275123Started playing this game right now.It's surprisingly pretty fun. I expected it to be obtuse, and it kinda is in terms of not explaining shit, but the actual game mechanics are just simple and distilled RPG, really fun actually. I kinda expected to be forcing myself through the game so I could get to the "good" entries, but it's genuinely an entertaining game.Well, at least for now, not sure if it gets worse.
>>736275123What, that you needed a key to save the princess? Seems kinda obvious to me. Ultima 2 is a lot more obtuse. >>736276212The final fight is actually kinda funny in how stupid I had to play it out, maybe because my stats weren't as high as they could have been. He likes to play dead, and when you walk away he likes to get up. To get to the item needed to finish the game after "killing" the boss, I kept hitting his body for like 30 seconds straight because it gave me more time to get to where I needed to.
>>736275123Fireball Lord British from the crowd. Drop a sign on Lord British, throw Lord British into the Stygian abyss, shoot Lord British with a cannon, Raise the skull of Mondain in Lord British's throne room, feed Lord british into the black rock mining machine, poison Lord british with 10,000 green potions, reveal Lord British has the only king-sized bed in Britannia because he's fucking the SHIT out of a maidservant. Tell everyone Lord British's favourite bedtime story is Hubert's Hair Raising Adventure which I'll quote now: Hubert the Lion was haughty and vain And especially proud of his elegant mane. But conceit of this sort isn't proper at all And Hubert the Lion was due for a fall. One day as he sharpened his claws on a rock He received a most horrible, terrible shock. A flaming hot spark flew up into the air, Came down on his head and ignited his hair. With a roar of surprise he took off like a streak, Away through the jungle to Zamboozi Creek. He leaped in kersplash! with a shower of bubbles, And came bobbing up with a head full of stubbles. At first he just stared with a wide-open mouth At the cloud of black smoke drifting off to the south. Then he felt with his paws just in back of his ears And he suddenly realized the worst of his fears. 'I'm ruined,' he shouted, 'oh what'll I do! I'd rather be dead or go live in a zoo! And if anyone sees me, oh what a disgrace, So I'd better discover a good hiding place!. Stab Lord British with a demon-possessed sword. Trap Lord British in a dome of Black rock. Defund space exploration to spite Lord British. Total Lord British death. I fucking hate Lord British so much. Sosaria belongs to the Sosarians.
>>736276212For a few hour experience that you can finish in one evening I thought it was incredible.>gain stats by exploring>killing monsters just advances the plot and makes the game harder>unique monsters on every dungeon level that you're afraid of and get your heart racing from thieves stealing your shit, gelatinous oozes eating your armor, gremlins stealing all your food so you starve to death to finding a Balron on levels 9-10>small mazes are fun and you don't need graph paper>you have to learn how to fly space ships and destroy 20 tie fighters in a cargo ship that can only survive a few shots after you accidentally waste all the fuel in the fighter shipsAll interesting concepts.
Don't open this:Vas Kal An Mani In Corp Hur Tym
>be a right cunt>create evil crystal phylactery>immediately a gigachad 99 str 10 wis dwarf comes out of a time machine with a blaster rifle and crushes your gem then shoots you 100 times with the blaster rifle until your completely vaporized
JOB?
>>736277283GOODBYE.
>>736276517Okay so obviously the jester has a key and tons of rumors and the kings tell you to find a princess but none of them say the prisoners are princesses and that you're supposed to fucking murder the jester and all the guards to free the princess (but the manual does say that Mondain has made things so shitty that all the kings are evil cunts now). Always kill the jester I guess.
haha what do you think poison wind smells like haha.
Probably in the manual. Like everything else in every Ultima game.

>>736277702Thanks, Ed. I'll tell Wilbur to give you extra oats next feedbag session.
