	Am I correct in assuming everyone loved the Ultima format?
	Me personally, I can't stand it - it was too complex, mouse or no,
and I couldn't do anything. I don't want to have to read a tome of 
instructions before i can enjoy a game.
	For me, it wasn't intuitive, it was just confusing. Maybe i'm just
not game-minded, but i couldn't get into the game because of it's interface.
