What makes the ultima series good (from 4 and onward) is the setting and philosophical issues the games deal with. Each game tackles its own issues, and each game (after 4 and not including 7 part 1) also questions the validity of the ideals that you are supposed to live by.
7 also has an incredibly well crafted world, with great NPCs and many interesting locations. The worlds really feels alive, far more so than the worlds of most modern CRPGs. The other games in the series are not as good at this (though 8 makes a good effort).
