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!

This game is bad... really bad... it shouldn't have been added to GOG's repertoire in the first place, It's not even a "Good Old Game".
Gameplay first, if you thought Gothic was clunky, this game is even worse, WAY worse, heck, it even makes Gothic look like it has the tightiest gameplay for an RPG ever.
As for the story... well, the famous phrase of Spoony says it all.
DONT BUY AT ANY COST!!!, let it rot in digital obliviousness and move on.
I found a video from a youtuber Spoony Experiment's review of the game...oh my lord the video is funny and also I never heard of Ultima till I found Spoony by pure random and then I watched all of the other ones. The IX game is THAT LEVEL OF PURE BETRAYAL OF BAD LOL!!
Everything there is to say about just how horrible this game is has been said at the Spoony Experiment.com I can add nothing further to this discussion.
This Guy sums it up fairly well,
