Corpnews.com: Returning to UO for former subscribers can be a traumatic event. The gameplay has changed significantly over the years, and any material wealth they might have had is either gone or not worth very much compared to today's UO economy. Do you have any specific plans to help ease returning players back into the game?

Sunsword: Well, It depends on the specific case (how long you’ve been gone and how well off you were when you left), but I personally didn’t find it economically difficult to return to the game after 2+ years of being away. But you are right about the gameplay. In some ways, UO can feel very much like a new game because of the new skills, areas, and systems such as “item properties.” We don’t have specific plans to help ease the return of veteran players other than to focus on what makes UO fundamentally good.
