"Not many RPGs can be said to take you from the seat of your room to an incarnation of ultimate holy power. This, however, was exactly the experience the famous Lord British brough to early RPG-goers with what many consider to be the pinnacle of the series: Ultima IV: Quest of the Avatar. The Ultima series has always been known for it's attention to detail, but this title was a cut above the others for many gamers - and indeed above many RPGs in general. The issues surrounding morality were of paramount concern in this title, immersing the user in the plot by creating direct consequences for his or her actions." - GameSpy
