Ultima Online 2 - It's DEAD! Here's what Origin had to say:
After evaluating the futures and potential of both Ultima Online and ORIGIN, Electronic Arts and Origin Systems have made the decision to increase their focus on Ultima Online by halting production of UWO: ORIGIN (UO2). Rather than create ORIGIN as a parallel world competing with Ultima Online, many resources that would have been required to complete ORIGIN will instead be refocused into Ultima Online, making sure that we can expand and support it for some time to come.
Over the past 6 months, a tight community has formed on our official ORIGIN boards, and it is with regret that we announce the closing of those boards. To all those who made the UO2.com discussion boards into such a positive and passionate community, thank you.
With the new focus on UO, however, our players have more to look forward to than ever before. In the near future and with the release next week of Ultima Online: Third Dawn, players will see new lands, new creatures, and a world that is continually evolving within Ultima Online
- Utter crap, but at least its free
- Average game, nothing to brag about
- Good Game, worthy of play.
- WOW, you gotta get this one!
