A bustling fantasy town under siege.

Tim and Greg Hildebrandt's artwork for Ultima Online.

I love how chill most of the towns people are in the middle of all this fighting :)

Interesting mix of styles - sort of a cross between Heironymus Bosch and Roger Dean.

The music in this game was also pretty good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8oJgt91M9g

I was straight up addicted to this game in the 90s/00s. If I hear the ost music, I fear I'll activate like some kind of sleeper agent.

It might and I think the game is still pretty good. It's just a little bit too grindy for the little time I have to get these days though.

I really like these oldschool aesthetics. It really makes me want to play Ultima Online, but I never played it and I have no clue were to start or what kind of server to play on.

Same bucket: not enough time to play, and not fond of paying a monthly charge to play a game.

This is probably the best server to start on. Private server that is basically the most beloved period of it. Still has a community and everything.

Loved finding art like this as a center spread in a gaming magazine as a kid. I'd keep opening it up and just stare at all the little details.

I used to be a top-ish scripter on EasyUO... would be fascinating to get back into this like 20 years later!
