Disclaimer: no matter how much I loved this one, I *never* managed to end it, so I can't comment much on the whole plot or details near the end of the game. That said, this is one of the greats of the genre, likely at the very top for me. From detailed graphics to a slowly unraveling plot, U7 shines the most in its finely detailed living world, which is a character in itself. It's easy to suffer the same fate as I did, just enjoying the experience of travelling around in Britannia and meeting random strangers. Loads of side quests to do, mostly heroic, but some mundane as being a helping hand harvesting crops of making bread. On the minus side, a somewhat confusing approach to group management and combat, but nevertheless a near-perfect experience and the crowning achievement of the Ultima series along with Underworld.
