Holy shit this is a great video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35SKawn2SDI (over 4h30m…)
Somehow I missed this thread when it first came out?
Anyway, we got U6 in a pack-in CD with our first 1x CD-ROM drive… I think it might have also had Strike Commander and one of the Wings Commander? U6 really was the highlight though.
Never finished it (looking at the walkthrough, kinda glad I never tried), but played through character creation & the opening 2-3 hours a half a dozen times, I think. “Melee” is burned into my head, and the pulsing blue glow around magic items still hits.
I think I saw ads/previews for U7 in a bunch of magazines, but never got around to it.
This deepish-dive into U6 is a lot of fun!
