	Questron is based on Ultima II (so much so, they even bought a license
to sell the game). As such, it does suffer from the need to rack up
personal money and experience points, and does get a little slow (although
I can give some hints on how to speed that up, within the confines of the
game, i.e. not editting the disk). But I strongly urge you to go ahead and
finish the game. The reason? The game has the most involved finish I have
ever seen! Not the fulfilling of the quest, which is sort of foregone
by the time you get to it, but upon return from the quest, the game goes
through about a 15 minute animated sequence of trumpet fanfares, royal
audiences and gifts, parades, salutes, and a teaser about a sequel (not
written, as far as I know). Very entertaining. I actually enjoyed the
game more than Ultima II - it has a much tighter plot, and reason for
things to happen. Still a lot of hack and slash, but there is an underlying
theme between events.
