If You Haven’t Checked Out Majuular’s “Ultima” Retrospectives, You Really Should
YouTube streamer Majuular‘s channel is full of retrospectives of many classic games, but recently his attention has been on the Ultima series. He’s covered Akalabeth and Ultima 1, Ultima 2, Ultima 3, Ultima 4, and (most recently) Ultima 5, and delves into significant detail about each game. The earlier videos run to about an hour in length; the two most recent ones clock in at nearly two hours. Each video features a lot of gameplay, of course, as well as Majuular’s own comments on the game in question, the history of its development, and key players at Origin Systems who were instrumental in bringing it to life.
You can check out the complete playlist of all of the Ultima retrospectives Majuular has done to date here; the Ultima 5 retrospective is also embedded above.
