I don't know what version I played, but I certainly would not consider
Ultima I unplayable. I found it an enjoyable and engrossing game. It
is, in fact, the only one of the first three that I've finished.
The second was fun, and I enjoyed roaming around the solar system, but
I never mangaged to kill what's her name at the end. She always flicked
to the other side of the palace and I had to fight my way through those
nasty guards and I couldn't keep enough hit points or energy or whatever
it was called.
I didn't like Ultima ]I[, so I didn't even attemp to finish it.
I played all the Ultima's on either an Apple ][+ or //e. I don't know
about other machines, but I thought the games were very playable, even
Ultima I.
