Wow... That is impressive!!

I have no idea how many dialogues are gonna be in my game... It might compete with yours word wise.

Maybe...

I think in uncompressed bytes, the total Ultima V dialogue is about 200Kb. O_O

Thank you Dragon Lance.

You can get a TI-89 on eBay for around $70. That's not too bad.

An 83+ port would be sweet but not very likely to happen. The game's just simply to big!! Keep up the good work Ranman. I can't wait till this game comes out. :woot:

Still it would be very cool if it was, but we can understand if there wasn't one

I dont think we will ever see Ultima V on an 83+. It is just too big.

However, I think Ultima IV could fit. Ultima IV is a great game too!

Probably both BW and an app. Perhaps one could do what pat and I are doing for Aura- making the engine a map, and then all level data external, so when you finish a level, you just load the next one.

To me, the greatest thing about the classic Ultimas is that they are all non-linear.

There are no "levels" or "chapters". You can do anything in any order; although there are smart ways to get things done.

There are 4 main quests that are required to complete to finish the game. There are even numerous subquests -- not all subquests are required to win, but, you may or may not ever know that. This adds to the replay value

Wow, that sounds really cool- it reminds me of the GTA games.

Hmmmm....

Maybe we can say that the classic Ultimas really set the standard for the rest of the game industry.

(I may be a little biased)

My favorite "new" game is Medal of Honor: Allied Assault. Great story! Good graphics (for the time). Excellent cinematics! But, as with most newer games, it is very linear. It even directs you down a path without the chance to go exploring.

Kind of true. In the old days, developers had not that great graphics, so they tried to make the game intresting using other things such as excellent stories, un-linear gameplay etc.

Hopefully Ultima V will lead to an explosion of new, creative TI software
