The Ultima Series by Spoony

[Infinitron]

Beren can be drowned, but it is risky business and if you die he will respawn.

Eh? How do you do that? I know there's that way to make him powerless... Is there some way of getting him to spawn over water?

Doug is a funny guy. You should read the rest of his website.

(Too bad he became a furfag and has to inject lame furry allusions everywhere in his newer works.)

Thanks, I've been reading through his "Misbehaving" section. I also love that this site looks like the 90's all over again

Just got through the Arx Fatalis one. Lots of cool stuff I didn't know you could do.

The Deus Ex one is pretty good so far.

The newer walk-throughs are pretty though; maybe it's just because I read all the others already and it's getting tired. Classics are ace though: Ultimas, Thief, Deus Ex, System Shock, Arx Fatalis...

Yeah, the Elder Scrolls stuff is furry derp, and the DX:HR walkthrough is just whiney. The U5 Lazarus page was his last classic, undeclined walkthrough.

 

[Luzur]

huh, you guys notice that he got a RPG engine for download?

 

[Quetzacoatl]

the rage over Ultima 9 will be glorious!

 

[Jasede]

Maybe he'll need heart surgery again.

That is comedy genius when breaking apart Ultima I really enjoyed his work when I was younger.

Sleep on lava with logs. Goddamn...

 

[Jasede]

Those old ones were so good.

I'm gonna read them all again. <3

Ultima 8 is a interesting little game... it took the (sometimes large) dungeons of ultima 7 and turned it on the whole game almost.

I quite like the necropolis. If it had more to do...
It reminds me of stone soup, with the branches (but much smaller and easier).

The narrative is too linear (but not unbreakable, as http://it-he.org/ shows), not like U7 where you could follow abrahm and the other around or fuck off and do other things, leading all to the same place.

Once i got into it, loved the spell systems. Of the ones that need reagents, they're hard to find in the world IIRC. Too hard, like another symptom of the unfinished-ness.

Plot takes a dive into nonsensical once you find the sorcerors.

Can't visit Spoony's site atm for some reason, but I got a chuckle out of it.

The Avatar returns from Pagan to Britannia, or maybe Texas to stop the Guardian with all of his titanic powers of Ether, or probably not. Will Spoony be able to ascend to a higher plane of existence, or descend into rage and madness?

"The, uh, Codex of Ultimate Wisdom?"

Good god...I forgot how ridiculous that thing was...

Looks like the Guardian represents the dark, Codexian side of Spoony's psyche.

 

[Notorious]

He might be batshit insane but he is a bro (Hmm maybe...)

Have to say, watching this has saved me from any slight feelings of finishing this game again for any continuity purposes should I do another complete Ultima runthrough. The last one was over 10 years ago, so my mind must have blanked out some of the horror of Ultima IX.

As for child killing, he could always just run away from them if he cared that much about it...

Well, his FFX review ,starring Meg Ryan, is pretty funny.

This Spoony guy is a retard. The art in Final Fantasy IX, aside from some of the androgynous characters, is amazing.

Welcome to the Codex. I trust you won't enjoy your stay.

 

[RK47]

Nice to see him up and running, Go spoony.

I feel like Spoony is slowly crawling out of the decline pit he was dragged into by his girlfriend and TGWTG crowd. I do hope he recovers from depression, though, since I liked his videos more when he was enjoying them too. Nowadays it all looks a bit forced. I also wish he did not include these audio-inserts like the "giant enemy crab" thing.

 

[Grunker]

SPOONEY NEEDS TO FUCKING PRODUCE SOME VIDEOS HE'S SO FUCKING GOOD HE JUST NEVER MAKES STUFF FUUUUUUUUUUUU-
