With that said, I'll let you get back to your dream of a decent Ultima 4 remake.
I'm a sweet man in every conceivable way!
Excellent? Perhaps, especially if you`ve never played them before. For me they`re best left in original form (and so is Ultima & others). Graphics were beautiful then - and are still, you just need to adjust your mindset a bit. It`s a bit like with vintage music or film…
What annoys me the most are voiceovers - they`re hardly ever done right, and anyway, I liked to fill blanks with this lil` thing called imagination. Same goes for visuals…

If I was a really cruel person, I would claim that their next project (with Mr. Moleyneux added to the team) will be a remake of System Shock. But I'm not that cruel.
Pure opportunism.
It's just a greedy little way of ensuring profit and investing minimally.
Oh well. I hope I'm wrong

buffed: Wait, you actually have the engine of Drakensang - River of time in the browser actually working?
Beyreuther: Yes, exactly. We got together with some Bigpoint technicians and drilled a couple of thick planks - and what we now have, our technology business. It's the same engine.
For those writing off browser game technology, remember Radon Labs claims to have their full Drakensang engine running in a browser:
I'm not saying Barnett would make a great U4 but being browser-based shouldn't be a limitation as such. Twotricks is right that browsers will be a significant future platform.
The point is that you press F11 and get stunned by the wonders of technology.I don't want to play any kind of game that I hope to be immersed in - in my browser with my list of bookmarks at the top and the search bar, etc. What's the point?
