The best CRPG docuseries on YouTube just covered Ultima 8 with a 3-hour retrospective

Before Esoteric Ebb, before Disco Elysium, and before Baldur’s Gate, there was Ultima. One of the earliest CRPGs in our favored medium’s history became a sprawling series, and if you want to learn more about it, arguably the best way to do so is through YouTuber Majuular’s excellent retrospective series, which we covered at length right here on PC Gamer.

I knew this latest video on Ultima 8, embedded above, was in the oven from my interview with Majuular, but it’s still shocking that it dropped only two months after his four-hour look at the Two Worlds games. I think I’d need a break from RPGs in general after that, but the new video seems as exhaustive as ever.
