I sit down with Puck from the UOR free shard and we talk about him personally and some in depth discussions about UOR. I think out of all the free shards this seems to be one of the most stable free shards I have seen. The consistent player base based on numbers that are available seem to be a testament to that fact.   Puck is extremely well spoken and this was a great conversation to be...

In this episode I sit down with the Grand Master PVPer himself Ansem UO. I would say one of the best well rounded PVPers in the history of UO going through various eras and shards. This is a great extremely technical breakdown of the mind of a top tier caster. The way in which Ansem breaks down certain mechanics was one of the best I have heard. As a mid level PVPer I felt this was very revealing...

In this episode I explain what my thoughts are on the current free shard offering and what my opinions are for 2021. I didn't really include OSI as I haven't played in a long time. I only try to give you all real experiences and my thoughts reflect that. I think the run away hit here really is Outlands and the question and I spent time explaining more on this.  Free Shard Links: Outlands: htt...

In this episode I sit down with the most notorious PK guild leader to ever grace Ultima Online: GluttonySDS. Whether you were a PK, Blue or anything in between you have certainly at some point in your UO career seen a EQMS tag.  EQMS is a guild like never seen before as a mass amount of people would group up and cast Earthquake or Meteor Swarm as a combo. This does massive damage but takes a...

In this episode I sit down with Pwnstarr Gaming and discuss his UO history and something a bit different which is the content creation side. Finding out who Pwnstarr knows makes UO such a small world for me as his unique take makes this one a real treat. I really appreciated hearing more about his YouTube channel as well. Video editing I feel is an artform and for UO more specifically isn't easy....

In this episode I sit down with Lord Blackthorn himself and have a very open conversation about Ultima Online. We explore everything from Orcs, Trammel and even a few celebrities that once played. Even at an hour and half I felt like there was so much more to cover. Starr is a true example of how someone can embrace what they have created and even 20 years later has no problem rehashing the past....

In this episode I sit down with the most Savage Bunny in all of UO. She may steal your heart and your gold if your not careful! Her rise to power is an interesting tale and finding out her upbringing with UO was great to hear. As the leader of the Money Guild on UOG Hybrid she has one of the hardest jobs of them all... Keeping the peace with some pretty big egos. Social Media Links: https://www.tw...

In this episode I sit one on one with an absolute legend in the UO community. Chopper is well known for his website www.askchopper.com and started this all the way back in 1999/2000. We go behind the scenes and really no question was off limits. We learn how much did Chopper make from this site? How did he start it? This episode in my mind was so cool to be a part of because I remember as a kid al...

In this episode I sit down with the leader of Free City of Trinsic Skye Wolfbane. She is the leader of a huge guild on UOF and this a unique take on how her past experiences have shaped her current role. From a PvM standpoint this was a very interesting chat as we actually agreed on way more than originally thought with PVP. Skye has also been a huge supporter of the Braving Britannia and has help...

I take a seat with a best selling author Wed Locher. Wes brings his creative side like no other and explains how he got into Ultima Online. Writing a book is an under taking like no other and this unique take was equally fun to create and listen to. With the release of his second book I can tell Wes has as much passion as any of us. I am still amazed someone has created a book for Ultima Online an...

I sit down one on one with MorrolanTV. One of the rare people I have met that has actually played Meridian 59 and truly understands sandbox MMO's. We go in depth about UO and MMO's and how it all shaped todays landscape. We bring up modern day MMO's and why they still can't seem to conquer what UO went through in 1999-2000.  MorrolanTV is a true MMO fanatic and you will be able to tell his pa...

Here is the final part of my talk with Lord British. This is one of the most fascinating interviews I believe I will ever do. We go into Red Alert, StarCraft, VR and current EA/Broadsword leadership. I ask the question if Garriott ever thinks about taking back UO and the answer is a bit surprising to me.  We also talk about virtual and real world economies which directly applies to the curren...

In this epic episode I get to sit one on one with Lord British himself. I get to know him I think like no one else I have heard and we explore the depths of not only his gaming career but what really inspires him to create these iconic games. I have really never had such a gracious guest give his time like this and really answer the hard ball questions. As a actual avid UO player both back then an...

In this episode I sit down LIVE and direct with ForestOfWires aka Carl Delinden. In a first ever live stream episode we peel back the layers and discover what makes Carl one of the most creative people I have spoken with. As a listener you will get the treat of hearing some UO music played live and some horror of me singing at the end! This was an absolute blast to produce and participate in.&nbsp...

In this episode we chat with perhaps the most interesting international OSI player: Say Simba. This is a fascinating look at how playing in China actually works and how many hurdles you have to overcome to play a banned game. We went through about 5 VPNs to make this happen and near a month of coordination this was a great project that came together. 

I sit one on one with the sole owner of Hybrid. We go on a journey to explore what it takes to run one of the oldest running shards in existence. 

In this episode I sit down with another moderator for Hybrid and we talk in depth about Hybrid and the new patch. The most striking was the Jarvis system and the gold share feature. These two really set Hybrid apart on how they work and really make sense to me. 

I sit down with Mister Lippy and go over his story and how he arrived on Hybrid. I also get a peak at behind the scenes of being a Discord moderator. I personally played Hybrid for many years after OSI and always loved the ruleset and PvP. Hybrid will always be something I mention or speak about as it played a part in my life for a long time. I believe it is the longest running free shard that has...

In this episode I sit down with the man with the plan of UO Outlands: Owyn. This is our first peak at behind the scenes of being a Ultima Online free shard owner. You will understand where Owyn came from and what helps shapes his decisions on making Outlands a polished success.  Social Media Links: https://www.twitch.tv/mustache_gaming_tx https://twitter.com/MustacheGaming2 https://www.instag...

In this episode I interview the INFAMOUS Luthius. I sit down with an absolute technical mastermind behind a few very popular past and present shards. One that you will find extremely interesting is IPY... If that doesn't ring a bell UO Outlands should. Hailed as the most popular and polished server we explore exactly why that is and what lead to some of the design decisions behind the shard. Buckl...

In this episode I break down some news and rumors for UO. I include OSI shards and free shards and hope to make this a monthly segment.

In this episode I talk PVP and crafters. I don't have a ton of experience with crafting but I touch on my personal experiences. 

Ladies and gentlemen I have returned and will be bringing this podcast back to life. Even after 6 years UO is still extremely relevant. This episode I go over a few reasons why I love UO! I also go into some detail on why other MMO's have failed to touch what UO offers.

Detailing current, past and future UO Shards.

A Podcast dedicated to Ultima Online and how it continues to shape MMO's and online gaming.
