Ultima™ 9: Ascension
Description
Prepare to embark on the final adventure in Ultima--the best selling role-playing saga of all time that has nurtured generations of gamers. Answer the call and return to Britannia for your last epic quest. As the heroic Avatar, only you can save Lord British and his people from the evil Guardian who has devastated and corrupted the land. Valiant combat, magical prowess, and knowledge of the eight virtues are your weapons against evil in Ultima IX: Ascension.
The ninth installment of the Ultima series takes a leap into a vivid, detailed 3D environment that adds a whole new level of interaction to the exploration of the realm. Britannia was always one of the most life-like, well-developed, king-sized virtual lands, but this new perspective makes the experience of “living” in it much more immersive. The combination of a story of epic proportions, solid mechanics--true to the classic cRPG spirit, and that achingly familiar Ultima setting, Ultima IX: Ascension a memorable title that all role-players should experience for themselves.
Ascend to the realm of myth and legend in the final single-player Ultima game!

It was my Zelda 128 at that time.
Ultima IX was very Hardware hungry when it came to be, so it was not so much fun with an old maschine, BUT once you got it up and running, it was just a wondeful world to explore. The Magicsystem was very interesting and fun to use, while the Melee section of the game was quite fun when you learn the special move. The dungeons were great, not linear crap like modern games, sure, a litte strange to the modern eye but it is a fantasy world for crying out loud :3 THe Game really gave you something if you explored nice loot und fun quests. I do not have enough stamina to write the wrong that has ben done to this game, I loved it for what it was: An Adventure. Nothing more, nothing less. Give it a Chance. Yours Truely Mr. McGruffels

Great Game
I loved this game when it was first released, it was slightly buggy, and had issues that most new games of the time had, but the story and graphics were just gripping. Tried to get my CDROM version working recently, but poor graphics compatibility made it impossible to play, so hoping the GOG release will fix these issues.

Obviously incomplete
Im not even sure why it was released. It was extremely buggy and incomplete which is very noticeable as you progress through the game. Forget this was part of the Ultima franchise

Just an awful game
Ultima 8 was my first Ultima game and I really enjoyed it. By the time I played it the patches had resolved the dodgy jumping and it was quite a fun action/adventure/RPG. Since then I've played most of the Ultima games and can see why number 8 is so hated. I do still maintain that it can be played and enjoyed immensely. Ultima 9 is different. It both doesn't tie in well with the other Ultimas and the gameplay is just plain bad. The only thing it had going for it on release was the impressive 3D world... but now it's just a dated, sad and barely playable game. Avoid.
