Orion Ultima Online (Orion UO) is a popular private free shard (player-run server) for the classic MMORPG Ultima Online. It aims to recreate the nostalgic experience of UO's early eras (primarily the T2A/Renaissance period) while adding custom quality-of-life improvements and content. Key Features of Orion UO: Era-Accurate Gameplay - Based on Ultima Online's Renaissance (UOR) era, with elements from The Second Age (T2A). - No trammel (full PvP and PvE in Felucca ruleset). - Skill-based progression with no leveling system. Custom Enhancements - Improved client stability (using Orion Launcher, a modern UO client with better performance). - Quality-of-life upgrades like increased skill gain rates and stackable items. - Optional HD graphics support. Active PvP & PvE - Classic faction warfare (e.g., Minax, Shadowlords, True Britannians). - Dungeons, champ spawns, and custom boss encounters. - Balanced PvP with skill-based combat (no overpowered custom items). Player-Driven Economy - Full loot (with insurance options). - Crafting and housing systems true to original UO. - Player vendors and auctions. Community & Events - Active Discord community. - Regular GM-hosted events (tournaments, scavenger hunts, etc.). - No pay-to-win mechanics (donations are cosmetic-only). How to Play Orion UO? Download the Orion client from the official site: https://orionuo.com Create an account and patch the game. Launch and connect to the server. Why Play Orion UO? If you miss old-school Ultima Online but want smoother gameplay. Prefer a balanced, non-customized shard with an active player base. Enjoy hardcore PvP, full loot, and a living economy.

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.
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.
