I welcome all comments about the material in this blog, and I generally do not censor them. Fascinating as that was, it eventually crashed and took all my saved games with it) Ultima IX (lots of bugs, most with workarounds, but in my first playthrough I'd reached the final dungeon, loaded my saved game and got taken to this glitchy surreal space a bit like one of the dimensional planes, but with NPCs and enemies from throughout the game distributed throughout. Ultima VIII (fire magic wouldn't bind to talismans) Ultima VII pt 2 (too many to mention them all, but most often the Banes wouldn't show up where they were supposed to be after their initial appearance) Savage Empire (I had this on an EA compilation CD and experienced the same bug you described) Ultima V for Apple II (dungeons wouldn't load - disk must have been corrupted) Ultima IV (in my original Apple II copy, all my ships disappeared and no new ones would respawn even after I restarted in another on Master System, the white stone didn't appear) The chronologically next game I knew well enough to rate was Star Control 2 (1992) which I gave 59 points. I tested my application of the GIMLET with Starflight and actually matched your 53 points! There were some differences in the categories though.

The winner was Fallout: New Vegas with 90 points. Skyrim did not win (it shared 2nd place with Fallout 1 and achieved 88 points).

Adventures are a little too linear, though they undoubtedly look better and the nostalgia factor is immense.ДЄnd finally, out of curiosity I applied your GIMLET rating to some of my own favorite RPGs. in real time, whereas the blogger of 'Pushing Ahead of the Dame' analyses the songs with the benefit of hindsight.ДЄnyway, I'm now pondering if I should also start reading Trickster's adventure blog. I guess the difference between your two approaches is that you analyse the games as you play them, i.e. It seems that his book will feature revised versions of his older blog posts, i.e. And he was also approached to turn his blog into a book (which he accepted to write). Strangely, that blogger also lives in Massachusetts. It's a blog about english musician David Bowie and the blogger there analyses every single song of that singer's 50-year long career. Running that way is absolute bliss compared to running from floppies, even the emulated kind.ДЄlexander Sebastian Schulz Decemat 4:52 PMДЄlso, dear addict, after about 10 weeks, I have finally caught up! Let me just say that you have done some monumental work, and it seems you have even more of that in front of you! (So quit Legends of Faerghail for a while.)Д«y the way, I follow another 'I do every single one of these!'-blog. If a game is installable to hard drive, I should be able to do that for you. if you want me to preconfigure an environment for an Amiga game, or if you just have Amiga questions, drop me a note at crpgaddict at malor dot com. I'll repeat an offer I made a month or so ago. Dumb programs work properly, and smart programs are unaffected. the emulator becomes an A500 that works just a little better than the real ones did. I'm not aware that this causes any compatibility issues at all. Having graphics just disappear is a classic symptom of a program not knowing about non-graphic memory, so setting all RAM to be graphic RAM might just fix it. And programs that don't know about CPU-only RAM will have no idea that they shouldn't be able to do what they're doing. No OCS Amiga had a meg of Chip RAM, but any program that knows that will be careful to use only the bottom 512K for graphics anyway. Then set 'Chip RAM' (which can be seen by the graphics chips) up from 512K to 1MB. Set any amount of 'Fast' and 'Slow' RAM to be zero. The only thing you'll change will be the RAM. Stick with the 1.3 ROM, 68000 processor at 7.14MHz, Original Chip Set (OCS) and however many floppies and/or hard drives you have now. tl dr version of what I just spent a long time explaining: try setting your emulator to a fantasy version of the A500, one that never really existed. Bolingbroke: your problem might potentially be a misconfigured emulator. this stupid blog just ate a huge comment.
