I am and I'm not. I wish they had made it because I loved UO, and there hasn't been many games like it since. I'm not too sad they didn't because it probably would have been horribly bad in some way or another. lol (ever the cynic)

There is. Ultima Forever was just released on the iOS.

Just to let people know Eldevin is almost nothing like Ultima Online. It's more like wow. Quests, leveling, no world pvp, when you die you don't drop your gear, pvp in battlegrounds, it's item centric, etc...

was referring more so to the top down view, and the sandbox feel of it
it feels so far from WOW, not one thing even feels remotely close....oh theres quests its WOW

If you look at all the reasons I stated you'll see it's basically nothing like UO except it has a top down view. D3 also has a top down view. Now I don't mean today's UO; I mean 1997's UO. Today's UO has been wowified for some time.

Whenever I drink I pour out some libations for SWG, WAR, and UOX
I do the same thing with Shadowbane, IMO I will never get to play a game as good as Shadowbane. The only way a game like this or swg, war, uo will ever exists again in modern time and tech is if we the communityy our selves make it happen.

Not me. There are so much good entertainment out there .. so what if one game fails to materialize.

This. I would so go back to playing if that happened.
any of you guys tried Eldevin? Is that similar to Ultima? Seems pretty fun so far
I dabbled with Eldevin a couple day's ago and like what I see so far.Didn't make far yet though.I'll play some more later in the week.
