    Okey so far this game haven't been announced. At least I think so? But do you think making an sequal to this game would be a good or a bad idea? I think it would be an hell of a good idea :thumb: buts thats just me ;)

    I really doubt they will. It's rare when sequals are made for games that weren't big sellers, and Arcanum certainly didn't sell well. I would say it's a good idea because the premise is one of the more unique I've seen in anything fantasy related since PS:Torment. But I hope they would improve greatly over the original; graphics, gameplay, etc. IMO, the game needs a ton of work.

    I agree with death Rabbit. It could be a great game. I liked it excrpt for NPC developement.

    Less bugs, better graphics, better handling of NPCs and it would be a superb game.

    I love Arcanum 1, seriously. It was just the bugs, choppiness and horrendously flawed (and again buggy) way the NPCs developed that made me put the game down in disgust.

    Off topic: has a much more comprehensive patch for Arcanum been released? That alone might make me reinstall the game after all.
