Website news: Site redesign done
May 26th 2002, by Hacki Dragon

Surprise! I’ve redesigned the site from the ground up, since I wasn’t very pleased with the previous look. So I’ve also taken that opportunity to add much new content:

  • An article about the old Ultima IX, which covers the Bob White plot, the unused maps, and remnants of the old design in the finished game.
  • An essay which explains why Ultima Ascension is not canonical.
  • A collection of Ultima Ascension reviews.
  • New images and more in the media section.
  • Advanced theories for Ultima Ascension, including screenshots.
  • An FAQ.
  • Nitpicking rules!

Additionally, there are new nitpicks for Lord British’s Castle, the Journal, and Ultima 8.
I’ve also included new sections for Ultima 1 and Martian Dreams. There are some new links, too.

For the future, I plan to report general Ultima news on “Hacki’s Ultima Page” as well. As always, I appreciate your critiques and comments. Send me an e-mail or post at the message board.

Have fun!

Nitpick news: Ascension dialogues
May 20th 2002, by Hacki Dragon

Once again I’ve checked many dialogues in Ascension and discovered several awkward mistakes in Minoc, New Magincia, Skara Brae, and Moonglow. Further inaccuracies and suggested explanations can be found for Ultima 7 and Savage Empire.

Website news: New poll
May 10th 2002, by Hacki Dragon

In the new poll, I’d like to know what you think about Ultima Online. Vote at the bottom of the site.
These were the results of the old poll:

Have you tried Ultima IX with the dialogue patch?
Yes, and it’s awesome 26%
Yes, but I wasn’t pleased with the way it changed the game 12%
No, but I want to try it someday 34%
No. It doesn’t sound too good. 6%
What dialogue patch? 22%

So most people have rated the patch positive!

Nitpick news: Flooded by nitpicks
May 4th 2002, by Hacki Dragon

There are new inaccuracies and comments for Yew, Britain, Valoria, Terfin, Lord British’s Castle, and the Tapestry of Ages.
As if this wasn’t enough, there are many new nitpicks for Ultima 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. There is even new stuff for Underworld 1, Underworld 2, and Savage Empire.
Well, this is gonna be more than enough for the next days!
