Fantasy MMORPG PvE Raids Guilds

Ultima Online (UO) is a groundbreaking massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed by Origin Systems and published by Electronic Arts (EA). It was released in 1997 and is considered one of the most influential MMORPGs of all time, setting the foundation for many modern online games. Key Features of Ultima Online: Open-World Sandbox: Players could explore the vast world of Britannia, engage in PvE, PvP, crafting, and roleplaying. Player-Driven Economy: A fully player-run economy where crafting, trading, and looting played a major role. Housing System: One of the first games to introduce player housing, allowing users to buy and customize homes. Skill-Based Progression: Instead of traditional levels, players improved by using skills (e.g., swordsmanship, magic, blacksmithing). PvP & Full Loot: Open-world PvP where players could loot fallen enemies, leading to intense conflicts. Roleplaying & Community: Many players engaged in deep roleplaying, forming guilds, kingdoms, and stories. EAs Involvement: Origin Systems (creators of the Ultima series) was acquired by EA in 1992. EA published Ultima Online and later took over operations after Origins decline. EA continued running official servers, though some fans criticized their handling of updates and monetization. Current Status (2024): Official Servers: Still operational under Broadsword Online Games (a subsidiary of EA), with active updates. Free Shards (Private Servers): Many fan-run servers exist, offering custom rulesets (e.g., UO Outlands, UO Renaissance). Legacy & Influence: Inspired later MMORPGs like EVE Online, Albion Online, and ARK: Survival Evolved. Where to Play? Official: www.uo.com (subscription-based) Private Servers: Popular ones include UO Outlands, UO Forever, and UO Renaissance.

Amazing expansion!

The War Within brings so much fresh content to WoW. The new zones are absolutely stunning and the storyline is engaging. Been playing for 15 years and this expansion reignited my passion for the game.

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
