Hi everyone!
Just wanted to say hello and thank you all again for your support. It has been quite some time since our last post, but didn't want anyone to think it had to do with us abandoning our labor of love.
In truth, we've just been a little lazy the past few months in posting an update but we have actually gotten some news together.
I need to finalize some of our progress into a coherent block of text for you all to read, so stay tuned.
..In the mean time, what is everyone up to these days? Reply and let me know. Any exciting RPGs going on?
In addition to Ultima, I've been playing Final Fantasy 1 for the iPad. Pretty cool to see it again. Wish they'd have some ultima stuff eh?

For me, it's all down to mobile gaming on my Android phone atm due to lack of time - except when I'm traveling.
That's Max Payne and Virtua Tennis on the one hand, Zelda - Ocarina of Time (Mupen64+) and Realms of Arkania 3 (DOSBox Turbo) on the other. Oh, and I've been playing Baldur's Gate 2 via GemRB for Android, but that one's really tedious on a small screen and crashes alot. 
Might be I'll give Diablo 3 a try, but I'll need a new notebook first.

Mucked around with Diablo 3 (emphasis on the 'mucked') and Max Payne 3. Honestly the only game that's held my attention though is Civilisation 5. I could shoot barbarians with machine guns all day long...
Very much looking forward to Redemption, The Ultima series is what cemented my love of RPG's and is second only to Baldurs Gate I and II. If you can bring back a little of that oh-so-missed old-school RPG magic then you'll go down as one of the greats in my book. Keep up the good work!

Mostly waiting on a bunch of games of different genres (XCOM: Enemy Unknown, Mechwarrior Online, Planetside 2).
As far as CRPGs, there is only Ultima 6 Project 1.1, and UIX: Redemption. After these roll out, I plan on playing all the Ultimas (including the spin offs) minus UIX:A, UV (since Lazarus is more fleshed out), or UVI (since I'll substitute U6P for it) in order in order to fully appreciate the end of the series which is Redemption.
Looking forward to the news of progress; just wanted to let you know that many of us are now enlightened in the ninth virtue -- Patience.
I really hope I still have my faculties when this gets released. Kidding. Keep up the good work!

I refinished Mass Effect 3... much better with the Extended Cut. I'm finding I don't have a lot of time to play games apart from that. I've been playing something the last day, but mostly I am working on my Serpent Isle mod, creating my own game and working. It's hard to play games when you always feel like you have something to do.

Well, you may be in luck, depending if you're an optimist or pessimist:

I'm going to have to play Ultima IX (in full) at some point, just to flame it more accurately myself. I was so turned off by the piece of crap that was Pagan that I couldn't make it past the first hour or so of Ascension.
Enjoy the great taste of wassail, in cans!

regrettably, I could actually find Ultima IX entertaining if it would quit the random crashes in Moonglow as a result of U9.ICD, and in the case of all sucessive patches, F, Fhotfix, and G U9.exe doing the exact same thing, I have to wait for Titans of Ether as it is the only way I'll be able to play Ultima 9 despite all the patches(and fan patches) a relentless bug that cannot be fixed ouside an engine change.

Titans of Ether is not a remake, it is a complete rewrite of U9 from the ground up.
Forgotten World is also still busy fixing as much as we can including what is making the game crash so badly. Just will take some time.

Hey guys,
Looking forward to the next update. Had a question for you though... have you considered starting a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for TOE? I'm pretty confident you'd get the backing, and if nothing else some funds could be well spent hiring some extra help to get this project out the door. Just a suggestion. I know a handful of people who'd dig into their pockets to see this remake get, yknow, remade.

Unfortunately that's not an option for us for several reasons, the most important one being, that we do not own the IP. Ultima belongs to EA and they leave us alone so far, but if we would take money for re-creating something that belongs to them you can be sure that we would get trouble faster than we can ask "What is a Paladin?".
That is also the reason why I didn't even dare to add a Paypal option here for some people who want to support us.

Ah, I didn't consider that. Well if there ever is a way we can support you I'd like to hear about it. We could send you, i dunno... snack food or something

Since there's nothing new for half a year, a guess we can close this project chapter?

Maybe it's just me being a little disappointed, but did all the work you guys put into all of this (and it did look like it was already really advanced) go to waste for some reason? After hearing nothing for so long usually means nothing good for projects.
I hope I'm wrong.

I personally tie progress on this project to progress on the OpenMW engine, and that is roaring along!
It would, of course, be stellar to hear some official word from the Titans themselves, but in the meantime I'm keeping myself up to date with the (almost weekly) updates from OpenMW.
Keep up the great work all.

Zini IS roaring along with OpenMW and I am STUCK with what I want to do in the meantime 
No the project did not die at all. It's just pointless to post half baked news. Could put up a picture of me grinding teeth
