How do I get into Ultima?

Read about what happens in 1/2, either read about 3 or play it (not really required but 3 is the best original trilogy Ultima), play IV, make FUCKING SURE you play V, optionally play VI, play VII, then live the rest of your life believing that Origin never made another Ultima game after VII despite all evidence to the contrary.

Make sure you have the manuals that come with the game because it helps you with a few things in the game.

Have something to write down/type in notes during the game because you'll need it.

And have fun.

But Blue Sky Productions/Looking Glas Studios did.

I would suggest just playing 1. There's no plot worth mentioning but it's so short and simple it's hardly wasted time.
2 can be ignored completely.

Ultima keeps jumping around in how it plays like so while there are particular "groupings" like 1-3, 4-5 and 7/SI, being able to play one game doesn't mean that you would be able to play the others.

Play it you hipster faggot.

If i were you i would start with U7, it is the most accesible game and introduces you to most common features in the saga. Then go backwards.

Why do you need to get into it?

I think 3 is closer to 4 than to 1 or 2.
Ultima always tried to evolve and advance the genre.
