Chip Power Play: Ultima on the Cover!
German gaming magazine Chip Power Play will be featuring Ultima (and Ultima Forever) on their cover next month, noting how Ultima 4 “changed the world” as part of their celebration of their 25th year of publication:
They describe the content of the Ultima article thusly:
Die Ultima-Serie steht vor einem Comeback: Wir stellen Ultima Forever vor, blicken auf Höhepunkte der Serie zurück und reden mit deren Schöpfer Richard Garriott.
Which, according to Google Translate, says in English:
The Ultima series is making a comeback: Introducing Ultima Forever, looking back on the highlights of the series and talk to its creator Richard Garriott.
So if German is a language you’re familiar with, Dragons and Dragonettes, and if you see this issue on the shelves later this month, pick it up and have a read!
(Thanks to reader Martin for the tip!)
Interesting to see that the magazine will interview Lord British, even though he doesn’t really have anything to do with Ultima Forever.
True, but LB has met with the Ultima Forever staff, and has kind of given his own blessing for the project. It’ll be interesting to see what he has to say.
Probably not too much shit-talking. LB is too smooth a criminal for that sort of anti-banality. Would be interesting if not about everything -but- Ultima Forever. It would be priceless were there a transcript or video of Garriott’s informal first meeting over drinks. I can only imagine.
