I'm expecting a f2p lite-mmo for smartphones.

I was saying the same thing before Star Citizen's reveal.

Although I think that's more likely in this case.

The only Ultima game I really played much of at all was Ultima Online, which clearly created and defined the MMO genre. Still, I was pretty excited years ago when Tabula Rasa was announced. At this point, however, I'll be excited only after I see a 90+ Metacritic score, because I don't have much faith left in Lord British.

If that will be like most of people think it will fail miserably.

And lol Mat did something excelent


Fail train will be glorious if it is what we think.

They also expected you to translate a cryptic language that Lord British created for the game. It was actually fun at the time. But it probably wouldn't fly nowadays.

The Runic Alphabet's a real thing, although I confess I can't remember exactly which iteration Ultima made use of.

I've lost the skill now, but at one time I was at a level in Ultima 7 that I could read the runes naturally without having to refer to the reference card.
