GamesRadar: When Britannia ruled the waves
GamesRadar writes: "The Ultima series was a genre juggernaut back when glaives and guisarmes were needed to carve through the mob of competitive RPGs. While we’re currently fortunate to get a couple legitimate RPG-of-the-year contenders, in the 1980s it wasn’t unusual to get a dozen. But the Ultima series easily dominated its peers, and continued to propel the genre forward with each revolutionary installment. Current RPGs like Oblivion, Gothic, and The Witcher were heavily inspired by the Ultima series, so young fans of those games all owe Ultima creator Richard "Lord British" Garriott a royal bow (or curtsey) of respect."
