Interesting reading about Stygian Abyss
Posted: Fri Jan 23, 2009 6:51 pmfrom the UO website:
"On further investigation, players learn the true source of the volcano, and who is organizing and drawing greater Evil from the depths beneath the ruins. Expect a thoroughly interactive dungeon-tromping experience layered with traps, puzzles, new monsters, and level design based on the original Ultima Underground ™."
I read that and thought ... hmm that wasnt the old Ultima name (Underground) ... and sure enough it wasnt. I still have those old Ultima games, and I went and read it "Ultima Underworld" .. I wonder if they cant use Underworld because someone else trademarked that for the series of current movies?
Just odd ... might just be a noob that never played Ultima and wrote what he thought he heard some old guy say hehe.
