I was able to go to his house because some friends of mine were really good friends of his - one of them was his best friend, who has known him since high school. (Both went to Crockett High School a few miles from my house.) There's no secret to getting to go to his house...you just need to know someone who knows him. BTW, I have a lot of great pics from his house and from some private "By Invitation Only" parties I got invited to at his house.
I just checked Texas CAD. It shows this house only has 3591 sqft. He must confused Travis County Appraisal as well. So Rich has not been paying for property tax for those hidden rooms for many years.
I really want a build a castle one day. But I'd prefer it was much less "modern" in it's general appearance and building materials. I will however, be buying the same brand of Vampire Hunting Kit, I think.
continued.... So he pulls out the uzi machine gun, fires a warning shot when guy doesn't back off, and holds him off until the police get there. That is just freakin awesome. Anyone can defend their home with a shotgun or a 9mm, but a millionaire pulling out an uzi is doing it in style. Though a crossbow would have been cool too....
@luting3 The house is big, but not as big as everyone thinks. The hidden rooms should be factored in the 3591 sq ft. I'm sure that he pays his fair share of taxes.
This is a really cool house, and I respect this guy for using his imagination and actually building this stuff. But it really annoys me that he's showing his hidden safe on national TV!! I know you want to show off, but come on man, you got to keep some things secret! FYI I read a really cool story about this guy. A while back a crazy fan broke into is house and came charging at him. He was surrounded by medieval weapons, so when he was attacked he pulled out... a freakin uzi! Seriously.
I've been there many times in all the rooms in this video. This house is a real trip. I saw Saturn for the first time in his observatory.
this is exactly what i want a game designer to be. not some awful corporate amalgamation. god bless you, lord british.
1:45-- Garriot feels up Opal's @$$
This house no longer exists. It was sold, house torn down, the large property split into two. Now two new houses exist at this location.
GOOD on you Richard. Fantastic house u got there.
Imagine trying to find your way around in a power cut

I love "Lord British"! He is a true freak. :)
the king of denim
It took me 5 years to find this video again LOL
If I bought the home Id always wonder if Richard was over in the passages running around :)
Ooh...the Canadian Tuxedo is in full effect!!
I can't believe he told I thought I was one of the few to know I help put in the stained glass.😂😂😢
My kind of guy - I like how he thinks. If I had that kind of dough, I'd do the same thing.
At least you don't have to worry about robbers finding anything.
I don't live in a castle, but there's one around the corner from my flat... Lord British seems to have one that's better insulated than the average.
I want his house as a mission in the next Thief Game. Mission objective: Find the hidden Ultima X design docs.
Awesome!
I'm sure that for all the secrets he's shown, there are more that he hasn't.
wooow, almost a dream house :)

"Very good. I did not hear your development."
He's gotta a lot of skeletons in his closet.

I want to be in a retro prog/psych band with Richard Garriot. I bet he plays some instruments, surely!?! Richard on keys and synths would kick ASS!
The real secret, It can survive bunkerbusters and has a launchpad under the house, like out of Wierd Science.
"My daddy is an astronaut."
they had a zombie role playing haunted house last halloween
wonder what sort of stuff he has in his new house ....
I saw this house on a episode of oddities!
If only that Hostage movie was set in this house.

Is there a follow up video on his latest construction? So interesting!

Dupre!!!!!
hey richard how about a key to your goddam armory next time.

Just now 11 years ago.
BTW, it's harder to meet Richard than it is to meet Harry Knowles!
Imagine losing your keys.
i just watched this
Id love to play hide and seek in this home
I feel sad for the fucker who tried to rob this place. He must've been so confuzzled.
5:20 It was a golden bong, I promise you

i wonder when his new house will be finished.
and a guest stays over, and a fire takes place.... what do they do?
yo! its like some scooby doo shit! lol, i wanna be in his house if da police r lookin for me , or during a zombie appocolyps! lls

not a secret anymore
There is boy heart in every grown up man body
Well it's easy to come up with new puzzles and riddles to solve.
i almost watched this
"I'm getting scared."
"Well that's a good thing."
Welcome to my rape room... Awwwwww Yeeeeaaaaahhhh!
@monkeymantube
he made video games. What a surprise, given his house :I
That's what money gets you. =)
Dunno, looks pretty cramped. Should've been 4x the size.
because of the narrator, the guy or the house?? XD
@bulgaripower He's moving out of it now
hide and seek
master
How did you get all that money to pay for that huge mansion and all that property to go with it? What did you do for a living?
wat dus a thunderstorm smell like?
The rich hoarder.
@EverHurt I don't think he'd be freaked out. Why don't you follow him on Twitter and send him a pic of your tat - I think he'd like it. :-)
Not so secret anymore....now is it?
Do you fancy him ?
Image giving someone the directions to the bathroom.......
Guys that nerdy shouldn't have that much money.
this guy knows how to enjoy his money
he owns so hard
@easygoldmoneyfast gotta blow Lord British to get in
imagine.having altiemers.(spelling error)
haha im good
@k0ma1337 No blow, just know.
The entire video is a contradiction. As the narrator announces each secret space it is no longer secret
Still secret to somebody!
Dudes mad creepy..
like ozone? XD
@bulgaripower Telepathy.
!!! no costumes today British?
i wonder if hes ever had a girlfriend
HGTV Cribs
they have to blindfold the women to keep it a secret. wonder what will happen with the camera man.
I love magnets and secret doors so I still like this...but agreed with below it IS gay af and that's 100% on the ugly interiors.
It's so tacky
Quel mauvais goût !
Gruargh it's so tasteless...
