Ultima Online (UO) is a groundbreaking massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed by Origin Systems and released in 1997 by Electronic Arts (EA). It is widely regarded as one of the most influential MMORPGs, setting the foundation for many modern online games. Key Features of Ultima Online: Open-World Sandbox - Players can explore the vast world of Britannia, with no strict leveling path. - Freedom to choose professions like blacksmith, tailor, mage, thief, or warrior. Player-Driven Economy - Crafting, trading, and looting play a major role. - Houses and castles can be built (with limited space, leading to competition). Full Loot PvP & Factions - Open PvP in most areas, with consequences for criminal acts (player killers turn "red"). - Trammel & Felucca split (1999 expansion introduced a "safe" PvE world). Housing & Player-Owned Property - One of the first games to allow persistent player housing. - Decoration and customization were highly valued. Classless Skill System - Skills improve through use (similar to The Elder Scrolls). - No fixed classesplayers can mix and match abilities. Roleplaying & Community Events - Strong RP communities with in-game politics, guild wars, and events. - Player-run towns, shops, and even judicial systems existed. Expansions & Servers Notable expansions: - The Second Age (1998) Added new dungeons and items. - Renaissance (2000) Split the world into Trammel (PvE) and Felucca (PvP). - Age of Shadows (2003) Introduced custom housing and the Paladin/Necromancer classes. Private Shards (Servers) Many unofficial servers exist, some emulating the "Pre-Trammel" era (hardcore PvP). Legacy & Modern Status Still officially running (as of 2024) under Broadsword Online Games. Inspired games like EVE Online, Albion Online, and ARK: Survival Evolved. "Ultima Online: Outlands" (a popular private server) revives the classic experience with modern improvements. Would you like details on gameplay mechanics, private servers, or how to get started?

Venture into the depths of Azeroth itself in this groundbreaking expansion. Face new threats emerging from the planet's core, explore mysterious underground realms, and uncover secrets that will reshape your understanding of the Warcraft universe forever.
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.
