Ultima is NOT reachable by making choices! In fact, you can only reach it by NOT making any choices! Just like they said!
Schmucks. I always wondered about that.

it's sort of a kobayashi maru
Date: 2004-10-06 11:03 am (UTC)...i found it when i was thirteen or fourteen only after
leafing through the entire book page-by-page in a fit of
frustration; at first i was mildly pleased with myself,
then i felt vaguely cheated/ripped off.

Date: 2004-10-06 11:05 am (UTC)Yeah, I flipped through to find it (actually the two-page art spread kind of stood out even during normal reading), and then tried to work backwards to it. I finally figured that must have been what you were supposed to do when I couldn't find any pages that linked to it...
And, yeah. Mildly pleased and then mildly annoyed.
