Ultima Online goes free-to-play with Endless Journey option

Ultima Online is the classic MMORPG based on the Ultima series of RPGs and has just added a free-to-play option with the Endless Journey. More than 20 years after its original release, Ultima Online is now free-to-play! Surely there's a new record in there and it must be a reason to celebrate. The Publish 99 update brings these changes worldwide and obviously the free accounts have some restrictions when compared to the Veteran monthly subscription option, as you can see here.

I'm not sure if new players are willing to jump in Ultima Online, considering that some of them probably weren't even born when this game was released. If you do, let us know how the game holds up nowadays.
