Ultima I for example was a very, very simple "go save some princesses and kill the big bad evil guy" setting. Not only is the gameplay of the first three rather bland (and very grindy), but so is the world and storytelling. Ultima I through III are incredibly bland games with bland gameplay - in the early 80's when they were released they were hotshit and at the forefront of computer role-playing games, but these days there is really no reason to play them besides being able to say that you've experienced them.
not to knock on Space Invaders, but yeah, you catch my drift. It would be like if your friend told you he had this new badass old game he wanted to play, hyped it up to you, and then when the two of you finally got together he just pulled up an emulator and loaded in Space Invaders. In my opinion (please don't strike me down for blasphemy, Garriott), they are also very, very bland. Ultima I through III aren't just dated though.

Now, anyone who knows me knows I am not shy to playing older computer games, I grew up with them in the 90's - an age where if you didn't read the manual you weren't going to have any idea what you were doing. One of these is most definitely: age and user accessibility. This is for a variety of reasons, and the reason that we are starting our Let's Play series (well, it may become a series depending on success/interest in the forums) here. Whenever people ask me "what Ultima should I start with?", I always, always tell them to start at Ultima IV: Quest of the Avatar. ☥ Introduction ☥This is going to be a Let's Play, done in classic forum style, for one of my favorite games of one of my favorite series of all time, Ultima.
