Ultima Online Plagued by Strange Rifts
You just have to love the campiness of having a news network in an online game. There’s the GNN, or Gnomergan Gnews Gnetwork for WoW, and there’s the ever-funny BNN, or Britannia News Network, for Ultima Online. Of course, the BNN, being one letter closer to CNN is far more serious in its coverage, as this breaking news of dark rifts appearing across a portion of the world would rightfully show.
The Britannia News Network reported that rifts have begun to appear across the land of Sosaria. They look much like the rifts that were created in the aftermath of the Ophidian Invasion, so care must be taken to ensure the safety of the land. It also seems as if Selcius the Astronomer is ready to offer aid to adventurers who are willing to aid him in researching the rifts as well.
“We have no idea what could be on the other side of a rift, and thatÂ’s what has us terrified,” says Selcius. If anything, it’s probably a portal to our three-dimensional world, or maybe even a rift that will lead to the homeworld of Spongebob Squarepants! Now that’s something to fear!
Hear that clarion call? That’s probably meant for you, adventurer! Get on your horse and help them out, why dontcha?
