Quoth the CRPG Addict: “Dammit, Shamino. You had one job.”

In case — for whatever inexplicable reason — you haven’t checked in with The CRPG Addict’s blog recently, you’ll be happy to know that he’s still working his way through Ultima 6, having added several more chapters to the chronicle of his quest to save Britannia from the Gargoyles.

At the very least, I’d recommend checking out his quite epic rant against Lord British and his exhaustive analysis of the Orb of the Moons. He also discovered (although perhaps this was a known thing already) that Terri, the lady at the mint, can trade in the gold nuggets inside the mint’s magically locked chests…without the chests having been opened.

He’s actually made some pretty decent progress in the game, having finished the part of the plot concerned with the runes and the shrines, and having more or less set himself up to undertake the pirate map quest. Which, yes, is entirely avoidable if you know what you’re doing in Ultima 6…but that’s not how Chester plays the games for his blog, is it?
