Ultima Online. This is the OG MMO. It was the Wild West, it had to make all the mistakes because there was no one else really before them to learn from. It was so new and interesting and was a blast the first few years.
I remember my Diablo guild all moved over to UO by beginning of 98. Great times, but jesus christ did I waste a lot of hours playing that.
Same, my HS grades definitely took a hit
would you suggest other such as me play this then also i heard its a hard game is that true?
It wouldn’t be very interesting for you to play UO now. Graphically it’s going to look dated obviously and they botched their successors. The original still lives on I believe on some level, but that experience of it being so fresh and new is long gone.
If you like retro games it's definitely worth a try, I actually started playing it last year and I'm loving it! there are lots of free shards(servers) to play on that are only PVM, so you don't have to work about PKers. Insane UO is where I play, and there are lots of friendly people there to help out the new folks!
