Key points
- The unpatched game has issues on faster systems
- The unpatched game doesn't support graphic modes beyond CGA. The CGA graphics used in the PC version were created for contemporary composite monitors in order to get 16 colors through effect known as "color artifacting". This effect doesn't work correctly on newer video cards or other display types
- The fan-made Ultima 2 Upgrade fixes both of the problems mentioned above in addition to other improvements and fixes
