Dear Winner,

I, too, completed the game without any bugs (unless you call the falling down ladders a bug and I finally figured that out about 3/4 of the way through how to do it...takes some finagling, though. I don't see what the fuss over bugs is about, unless people are trying to run it on W2K (which isn't a supported platform). I never played Ultima 9, but I heard it was a nightmare as far as bugs went. There were some inconsistencies in the game (I mean, really! Having to deliver x number of samurai arrows or toad potions as if it were the first time it was done), but most bugs in the game are in FAVOR of the player, not against.

Well, I'm going to try for a Valkyrie and ZenMaster again this time. You do get both quests soon enough in the Pyramid that you can get them up to fairly high levels before completing the game, and I play with respawn set to high normally.

Later,
Sazerac
