  Thus continuing the time-honored tradition of the entire Ultima series: trying to find a way to kill Lord British. Garriot's self-insert is the king of the land of Britannia in pretty much every one of the games, and there's some way to kill him in just about all of them. https://ultima.fandom.com/wiki/Killing_Lord_British https://ultima.fandom.com/wiki/Killing_Lord_British

  It was incredible marketing for the game. I remember all the gaming press wrote about it. It would just inspire you to try to play the game. If someone made an MMO today, it would make sense to stage similar events to get some nice viral marketing. The 'corrupted blood' incident in World of Warcraft gave the game a lot of free marketing even in normal press - who loved to write about it. From what I understand (many?) players enjoyed the few days of chaos too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrupted_Blood_incident https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrupted_Blood_incident

    It really wasnt fun in the event the fun part was how it spread all over so fast afterwards and peoples reactions, the ingame experience for most was just dying over and over again :)
