I am trying again and playing the EGA upgraded version of Ultima II: Revenge of the Enchantress. I am ready to see what today brings! I am sure that this game will function flawlessly and I will totally love the gameplay, in spite of what 99% of retrogamers have told me about Ultima II.
Hmm...
At this point, I assume the universe is telling me to move on. I got nervous when I noticed that the upgrade hadn't been updated in 8 years. A lot of things happen in the world of computers in 8 years. Things that used to work will sometimes not work anymore. I could:
1) use a non-GOG version of the game or,
2) download it for free and fiddle with applying the upgrade there or,
3) try playing it on a different platform or,
4) a hundred other things.
Or, I can admit that wanting to like a game and staunchly guarding my nostalgia is very different from actually enjoying the game in 2026!
It's ok. This means that this weekend is about Ultima III and my music! I look forward to both. I will make posts over the weekend to release next week. I also plan to get in some World of Warcraft. Discipline Priests are fun to play!
