This year, I bought the entire packs/bundles of #DnD #DOS classics via #Steam as well as #Ultima 1 to 7 via #GOG.

The last time I played most of these were from 1988 to 1996. One or two I played again sometime early 2000s, randomly.

I already started with #ChampionsOfKrynn and #Ultima7 Part 1, and I'm already cheating. ROFL. I mean, the packs made it easy to cheat.

Back in the 90s, we had to use a hex editor like #PCtools. We open the savegame file, search through it through the hex editor, and did our magic.

Oh no, if you're starting Ultima 7, then you might want to consider running it using Exult

Exult has some QoL additions, fixes, mods that should make your playthrough more enjoyable

@sub_ Yep, I'm using #Exult. I find it easier than regular #DOSBox. I used the files installed by GOG for Exult Linux. And true, I like the QoL features they added!

I'm going to play Fable Anniversary, Fallout 3 and Witcher 2 that I got this year too.

@Lunar Ahh! Fable, Fallout, and Witcher! I miss those too. Hmm, I think they're on winter sale, I might be able to grab them as well. ^_^;;
