So, the Ultima games now available on Origin: http://ultimacodex.com/2014/06/the-...-store-uses-box-art-made-by-an-ultima-dragon/

If you go to the Ultima 9 page on EA’s Origin digital storefront, you will see this box art displayed there:



Well, as it turns out, this art doesn’t come directly from any of the materials that would have shipped in the game’s box, nor was it taken from the game’s box art. In fact, it is a cropped version of a CD cover — for the game’s soundtrack — made by Jens “Daimos Dragon” Hoenscheid. You can see it, and the other CD covers that Jens made, in the gallery at the top of this article. (He quite graciously provided the image set for this article.)

No credit for Jens appears on the page at the Origin store, and one wonders just how whoever put that product page together went about selecting box art. Is it so hard to find correct Ultima 9 box art online?

What's Ultima Ix?
I never heard of that game? Is that new?

 

[Unkillable Cat]

It wouldn't surprise me that this version of Ultima 9 has Lord British replaced completely by Lady British because of copyright.

well, i play a man in games because i am a man and identify as one, and also because i dont stare at my char the entire game, but concentrate on the more important surroundings, enemies, text, dangers, loot, stats, ammo, HP, XP, armor, weapons, items, cover, traps, ambushes instead of just looking at my PC's ass.

Of course, I also prefer first person view, so yeah.

Like that Gothic game, right..

 

[Baron Dupek]

Which Gothic game? Because since Night of the Raven there is nothing new.
Need to check some big mods.

Every time someone uses a steam emoticon I just think they're idiots with more money than sense.

 

[Hoaxmetal]

They cost like 5 cents.

They are great way to end steam chat with friends that bother you to play games you don't want without offending them.

Do you have to pay to use emoticons on Steam?

Not sure if incline or decline.

You can buy them or trade them, or collect cards by playing games and craft them.

What the fuck has Steam become?

DU should take heed. People like Comissar Draco would be enough to pay the servers for years.

What the fuck has Steam become?

Saving PC gaming one emoticon and one $3 game bought from Russians at a time.

I bought my emoticons with magic internet money I got from card drops.

A-are you joking? Please tell me steam isn't selling fucking emoticons now.

Jesus fucking christ, Valve is dead.

Jesus fucking christ, Valve is dead.

Apparently it's thriving, and that kind of stuff is one of the reasons why. I'm pretty sure that if another service had tried to do the same thing, there would have been outrage instead of blind acceptance.

You don't buy them from Valve, you buy them from other users (and Valve takes a cut)

Are you trying to tell me some corporation try to make profits on fools?
That's quite shocking news to me.

Spoiler

Actually not

 

[Scroo]

Buying emoticons is similarly addictive as buying cheap games you will never play

That's just a shady way to make even more money. If Valve is making money off them then Valve is selling them, whatever the middleman is.
