Podcasts about Ultima Online

TCW Podcast Episode 230 - Crafting the World of WarCraft   World of Warcraft has stood the test of time for twenty years, and now we can explore the fascinating history behind its creation. The developers drew inspiration from MMOs like Ultima Online, EverQuest, Anarchy Online, Dark Age of Camelot, and more, incorporating what they loved while tackling unique challenges. From art style and storytelling to quest design, factions, and PvP, every aspect of the game presented obstacles to overcome. Despite launching with several rushed elements, WoW captivated a gaming audience eager for an accessible MMO—and went on to set records for years to come   TCW 054 - Blizzard: Vikings and WarCraft: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/blizzard-vikings-and-warcraft/ TCW 055 - Blizzard: Hellfire and The World… of WarCraft: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/blizzard-hellfire-and-the-world%E2%80%A6-of-warcraft/ How to play Necromunda: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqAxPXd5y8g Place Nice: The Rise, Fall, and Future of Blizzard Entertainment (Affiliate): https://amzn.to/41MvT5c The WoW Diary: A Journal of Computer Game Development [Second Edition] (Affiliate): https://amzn.to/4kzpxNT EverQuest Launch Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AJdrc8ZsEI TCW 219 - Diablo 1: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/diablo-1/ TCW 220 - Diablo 2: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/diablo-2/ A Brief History of Chess: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YeB-1F-UKO0 Tabula Rasa Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGQ0Nb3U9kw Tabula Rasa Box Art: https://cdn.mobygames.com/covers/4266351-richard-garriotts-tabula-rasa-pre-order-bonus-pack-windows-front.jpg World of Warcraft Box Art: https://i.etsystatic.com/19063773/r/il/3b9985/2196312265/il_fullxfull.2196312265_13ii.jpg WarCraft 1 Intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SA40KEDV6Dc WoW V0.53: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RszVOPx1apI&t=0s Duskwood Retrospective: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2suPQAZMqc TCW 030 - Doom!: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/doom-1479057917/ Ed Bighead Campaign: https://www.facebook.com/RememberWhenNick/videos/remember-when-bigheads-campaign/279376435941596/ Snow White Trailer (1937): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L16P0rip9E4 13th Warrior Cave: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTVze7cfwWU     New episodes are on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: feedback@theycreateworlds.com  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theycreateworlds Alex's Video Game History Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com Alex's book, published Dec 2019, is available at CRC Press and at major on-line retailers: http://bit.ly/TCWBOOK1     Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.

Star Wars Galaxies, Ultima Online, and now Stars Reach. Raph Koster has certainly made his mark on MMOs that are designed as systems-led experiences that feel like breathing worlds. This interview goes over Raph's history of game development, and why Stars Reach is the culmination of decades of experience, new exciting technology, and an organic sandbox players can deeply enjoy with each other. If that sounds exciting, consider checking out the Stars Reach Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/starsreach/stars-reach DL Gaming: A PC Gamecast adds games both new and old to your Steam backlog one slightly inappropriate episode at a time.

And what can we learn from its successes and failures? Starr Long is a game designer and producer who directed the team that built Ultima Online, the first popular Massively Multiplayer Online game. In this in-depth interview, you'll learn how a theater major became a game designer, how Ultima IV blew player's minds, and the shocking things players did early the development of Ultima Online.

From 1997 to 1999, the gaming industry underwent a series of significant transformations that redefined its landscape. In 1997, as 3D gaming continued to revolutionize the industry, Sony's PlayStation emerged dominant, but it wasn't without challenges, as both Nintendo and Sega grappled with changing dynamics. A notable highlight was the intriguing saga of "Duke Nukem Forever" and its impact on the perception of game development. By 1998, the gaming world celebrated a milestone as it was recognized as a bona fide art form, with awards honoring its creative achievements. This was juxtaposed with controversies surrounding violent game content, even as Sega's Dreamcast ushered in the sixth console generation with its cutting-edge features. The year 1999 witnessed the meteoric rise of indie developers and the massive success of Pokemon, a phenomenon that transcended the gaming sphere. Additionally, Hollywood's foray into gaming, exemplified by Stephen Spielberg's "Medal of Honor", signaled a major shift, while legal battles like Sony Corporation v. Bleem LLC emphasized the importance of intellectual property and sparked debates on emulation.Featured Games:Final Fantasy VII, Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee, GoldenEye 007, The Curse of Monkey Island, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Age of Empires, Ultima Online, Sonic Jam, Croc: Legend of the Gobbos, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Half-Life, Unreal, Pokemon Red and Blue, Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill, Super Smash Bros, StarCraft, System Shock 2, Age of Empires II, and RollerCoaster Tycoon. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★ (00:00) - Episode 5 (00:06) - 1997 (30:19) - 1998 (46:55) - 1999 Thanks to our monthly supporters FS Tabreez Siddique Mynx Mopman43 Ritsu William Kage Studio Devil Dallay_g Razu John H The Golden Bolt MykonosFan ErbBetaPatched Vornak Killer Space Serra Mr. Lindsay Autocharth History With Kayleigh Benjamin Steele Nick Makris minimme

We are BACK with another episode with my good friend Patrick of Epic Lute Gaming! This was a excellent fire side chat into the world of Patrick. I really enjoyed hearing about his up and comings with UO and hearing about OSI. I think Patrick really is the content creator OSI needed to get some more activity going.

Mike and Tyler are joined by freelance journalist Matthew S. Smith! Matthew has written for numerous publications including The Verge, Wired, Kotaku and IGN. He also produces the YouTube channel Computer Gaming Yesterday. They discuss Multi User Dungeons (MUDs) and early western MMORPGs such as Ultima Online, Everquest, and Dark Age of Camelot. The theme music is by RoccoW. The logo was created by Dani Dodge.

Ultima Online, as a 25 year old metaverse instance, Andy's foray into conversational AI to create his bio, LEGO computers, Humanity and Gran Turismo games.

Mitch and Blake discuss how the rise of games-as-services has privileged durable, long-duration play-patterns -- leading to the modern idea of the "Forever Game" which can persist for decades. Mitch outlines his five attributes of long-term engagement and provides examples of each from games like Ultima Online, World of Warcraft, Age of Empires, and League of Legends. They look at the two distinct strands of long-duration play that emerged in the 1990's -- the massively-multiplayer online role playing game and the session-based online competitive game -- and how those genres evolved and cross-polinated to produce multi-billion dollar online games that have remained viable for a decade or more.

In this episode I sit down with Brianna Wu and we talk some UO. It is amazing how many people have played this game and the more I discover who has the better these conversations seem to get! Brianna has a very diverse background from game development to a passion for politics. This was a great walk down memory lane and we get to have some insight behind what the game meant to her and how it still shapes some of her real life goals. A huge thank you to Brianna for the scheduling issues during the holidays but I think this was well worth it. Please enjoy this first of many for 2023.

Would you believe surviving is impossible and there are no vampires? The show has reached episode 100 and it seems only fitting that the game chosen for this landmark episode is another roguelike! Can you feel how thrilled Chris must be with this turn of events? The show must go on and in this roguelike side-scroller developed by Luca Galante, the player is tasked with surviving as long as possible as endless waves of non-vampire enemies fill the screen. It's a bullet hell game, but the enemies are the bullets… and none of those “bullets” are vampires. Fun fact: the internet tells us that the designer was a big Ultima Online fan! Will that bleed through in the game design and impact Tom's ultimate decision? As always, the rules are simple, our hosts play for an hour and then must make their decision. Find out if this game is one they will keep playing after the time is up! What do you think? Let us know!

I was approached by John-Clark to help him on his quest to write a piece about Ultima Online. I was honored and humbled by this request and here is the raw audio file of our conversation. It has keyboard noise, in game noise and a host of other things that are very different from the normal format... Please share your feedback on what you thought... I really wanted John-Clark to get a sense of understand on what this game is current day. He got to see an active guild, a hunt, historical houses and some priceless interactions. John-Clark clearly did exhaustive research on UO and his questions really had me thinking. I think trying to fit all of who he is interviewing into a written article seems like a arduous task that I cannot imagine! I hope however the insight I gave and even showing him in game footage helps this article last another 25 years as UO has. I will share this article once written in my discord and social media platforms as I am chomping at the bit to read it. A huge thank you to John-Clark for giving this game and its genius design a platform. I sincerely hope and wish for 2023 UO players become more unified in the goal of expanding no matter what shard whether free or official. My take is as long as people are playing some sort of UO it is a huge win. Sponsors: https://drinkwildbills.com/discount/MUSTACHE 10% off all root beer and mugs!

In this episode I sit down with Abigor of KOOL and discuss his personal history with UO and talk some OSI. I didn't know what to expect coming into this discussion as many believe OSI is not alive or on life support. I am biased in the fact that I play a free shard so I really wanted someone to challenge this idea and give me their opinion. At the end of the entire experience my take away is that OSI is alive and well and is stable for the future. I saw a guild that was thriving and alive with events, hunts and tons of activities. This will tie into the next episode where KOOL helped me out with one of my biggest UO projects to date so stay tuned!

This week’s Nose is a crushing responsibility. The Lost Daughter is Maggie Gyllenhaal’s debut as a writer and director, and it’s made her a Golden Globe-nominated director and a Golden Osella-winning screenwriter so far. It’s an adaptation of the Elena Ferrante’s 2006 novel, and it’s available to stream on Netflix. The Lost Daughter stars Olivia Colman (in a Globe-nominated performance), Jessie Buckley, Dakota Johnson, Ed Harris, and Peter Sarsgaard. And: Station Eleven is an HBO Max limited series adaptation of Emily St. John Mandel’s 2014 novel. It tells the story of a world during and after a devastating, flu-like pandemic (sound familiar?). Station Eleven stars Mackenzie Davi, Himesh Patel, Lori Petty, Gael García Bernal, Caitlin FitzGerald, David Cross, and others. Its 10th and final episode hit HBOMax yesterday. Some other stuff that happened this week, give or take: Ronnie Spector, ’60s icon who sang ‘Be My Baby,’ dies at 78 Bob Saget Dead at 65 Marilyn Bergman, Oscar-winning composer, dies at age 93 Ultima Online: The Assassination of Lord British Remains Gaming’s MOST Infamous Event The events of Ultima Online have become legendary in the gaming community, in ways no one could have ever imagined.
