Ultima IX/Trivia


 * Creator Killer: The game was received with disappointment by fans upon release, and this — combined with a development ridden with problems — is seen as responsible for driving Origin to closure. See Executive Meddling and Troubled Production below for examples.
 * Executive Meddling: And a hell of a lot of it too.
 * What Could Have Been: There are screenshots in existence of the early build of the game, which would have been viewed from above (like the other games in the series), but still featured enviroments and characters which were rendered in 3D. The decision to rework the entire game engine into effectively being a third person shooter was made by the game publishers because 3D games were popular.
 * Just check out this website, which details the rather exaustive development process.
 * Also the Bob White Plot.
