Ultima Online (Video Game) | comment |
The first widespread commercial success in MMORPGs, first released on September 24, 1997 by Origin Systems. Developed based on Richard Garriott's Ultima series of games. Initially intended for each server to host roughly 300 players the game garnered unexpectedly huge numbers. Notable for its classless and level free skill based system whereby you could create a character with any combination of skills and gained power by using them. Instead of slaughtering monsters to raise your magic skill, you used magic. Using a sword would raise your swordsmanship. Also notable was the game's emphasis on Sandbox gameplay. Little overarching storyline existed. Player freedom and enforcement of good behavior was expected. Unfortunately, the developers didn't realize what they were in for. Approximately 1% of their total playerbase rampaged through the game world, slaughtering other players by the thousands. They got around this by creating a mirror world called Trammel where PVP was heavily restricted.Despite a rocky start, the game flourished and is still running today. Several expansion packs have added content over the years, to say nothing of drastic changes added by free patches.A sequel called Ultima Worlds Origin was planned in 2000 but was cancelled. Later in 2004, another sequel Ultima X Odyssey was planned but it was cancelled also. | |

Katanas Are Just Better | |
Ultima Online (Video Game) / int_12a22bd8 | comment |
Katanas Are Just Better - Averted! You can get katanas (in medieval pseudo-England, yes...) but aside from having a good balance of damage and speed, they're a fairly average bladed weapon, compared to some of the others available. Like, say, an artifact halberd that can set things on fire. | |

Ultima Online (Video Game) / int_164583e3 | comment |
Purely Aesthetic Gender - A player can play as a male or a female. The only difference this will make is that only female characters can wear certain types of armor, and some articles of clothing become more... shapely on females. (Note: dresses are made to look shapely on any character. This leads to crossdressing male characters... sporting impressive breasts and hips.) | |

Lord British Postulate | |
Ultima Online (Video Game) / int_1a1ea492 | comment |
Lord British Postulate - Trope namer. Richard Garriott himself logged on and accidentally crashed the server; when the server rebooted, his invincibility was disabled on accident, a random passerby decided on a whim to blast him with a stolen firefield spell. Literally nobody involved was expecting it to actually kill British — but kill him it did. | |

Shoplift and Die | |
Ultima Online (Video Game) / int_33bcd2af | comment |
Shoplift and Die: Grab anything and a guard teleports in and instantly kills you. During the original beta, it had a more nuanced system where guards would chase you and left open the possibility for thieves to get away if they were clever. When players promptly started abusing pathfinding mechanics to grab everything risk-free (and lagging the servers like crazy,) it was changed to instant death on any theft. | |

City Guards | |
Ultima Online (Video Game) / int_47a3b75e | comment |
City Guards - The guards are Nigh-Invulnerable one-hit-kill teleporting badasses. They come instantly when called by a player or NPC, and they'll kill any criminals within city limits, regardless of where the crime was committed. During the original beta, they actually acted much more realistically — they would have to be nearby to hear a plea for help and were strong but beatable. Griefers ruthlessly exploited this until Origin gave up trying to keep them even remotely fair. | |

Horse of a Different Color - with the right amount of animal taming/lore, you can ride swamp dragons, ki-rin, bipedal dinosaur-like ostrich/lizards called ostards, nightmares, giant beetles, unicorns, fire steeds, and llamas. Some are literally rehued horse sprites, especially if you're using an outdated version of the game. | |

Continuity Nod: In-game books mention characters and events from the main games, including the Time Lord, Sherry the mouse, Seggallion from Knights Of Legend, and Gertan from The Caverns of Freitag. Some of the books are from Ultima VI. The UO Town Cryer Newspaper, March 10th, 1998, explains how the Bobbits in the earlier games were wiped out by a plague caused by Mondain. The Europa News for 2013 mentions the Time Lord participating in some events. | |

Continuing is Painful | |
Ultima Online (Video Game) / int_c3d60914 | comment |
Continuing is Painful - Death is fairly punishing since you have to find someone to resurrect you and then go back to your corpse to get your stuff back. If you can't return within about fifteen minutes, your corpse goes through its final stage of decay, disappearing (along with anything you were carrying). If you were killed by another player, they have the option of looting any and all of the equipment left on your corpse. At least there's item insurance now... Unknown if it is still the case, but other players weren't the only ones capable of looting a corpse. Many times, your body would be picked over by the enemy NPC who killed you, leading some monsters to become veritable pinatas if they lived near the entrance to a dungeon and could repeatedly catch players off guard. | |

Metal Slime - A couple of examples, but the most irritating are the elite ninjas. (Yes, 1337 ninjas.) They appear suddenly, do considerable damage, zip around like nobody's business, and have stealthing powers, which makes them difficult to pin down and impossible to see coming. Also, they turn into cats, which causes great excitement. | |

Shoot the Medic First - No player party can expect to survive for long against a powerful monster without a cross-healer. In PVP, it's greatly recommended to take out anybody who looks like a wizard.

Stone Wall | |
Ultima Online (Video Game) / int_f62cc38a | comment |
Stone Wall: This is normally subverted with rotting corpses, as they have a whopping 1200 hp, but do a pitiful 8-10 damage a hit. However, they also have level 5 poison, the worst kind, which takes up to a third of one's health per 5 seconds, and is almost always fatal if not cured. If, however, a player provokes a rotting corpse to attack another rotting corpse, it's played completely straight, as they are immune to poison, so fights between two of them can and have lasted over and hour. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
Ultima Online (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Potential - Being evil to both monsters and other players for fun and profit for 14 years. The game's rather clever 'Virtual Ecology' system note plants grow, herbivores eat plants, carnivores eat herbivores, players kill carnivores, plants grow, repeat was meant to keep wildlife ratios consistent. Nobody realized that players would kill absolutely everything, not just carnivores. Things got so bad that eventually the developers simply excised the system entirely, before anyone even knew it was there. | |

Suicidal Overconfidence - The fairly new Paladin skill of Chivalry is almost game-breaking in its usefulness... but, of course, there are always those who will become complacent. Unfortunately, because such players have rarely had to develop their running-away skills, they're not very good at escaping. Monsters tend to be lured straight back onto the rest of the party, which they make mince-meat out of, as the dead Paladin is typically the strongest defensive member. Leeroy Jenkins lives! | |
