Well... you can break about every items in the game, but I haven't heard about that...

EDIT: Oh yes... I remember now... it's true. In the brothel.

Yeah, in one of the citys you can enter a brothel and pay 100 for a real woman or 20 for a sheep. The interaction is excellent. Many ways for completing quests and you can even play as a bad guy! If you have 100 evil alignment for some time, the main bad guy will come to you and ask you if you want to join him. Or so I've heard. Anyway, the game is one of the best RPGs ever(Icewind dale series, Baldur's Gate series and Fallout series come first, this one follows). My initial reaction to the game is the same as Luvian's, but once I got the hang and tempo of the game, I couldn't leave it.

Have anyone else noticed that Chakrams are indestructionable, especially the magical ones. A range weapon that has unlimited 'ammo', can break down metal doors and can only be harmed by a unlucky critical miss. :rolleyes:

the environment is pretty interactive; though you cant 'destroy' buildings/landscape you can break down doors n stuff.

The only 'class' that is weak is the one where you do both magic and tech for your character. If you do that, you must be very careful to not be too even between it - ie, if you want 1 tech branch and the rest magic thats fine, but dont do a 1 for 1 thing or youll have a hard time.

Tips:
Clerical can ressurect almost any recently deceased can be raised; ie they dont need to be party members.

You can give npcs amulets and such that are deadly to wear and theyll put them on and die for you.

Weapons - there are some invincible melee weapons which dont take damage when they strike things that normally damage weapons. Most of them are hidden and or quested for.

Bleh; I just got it. It doesn't have... I dunno... the atmosphere that BG2 did. Still, I'll keep it for a while, pick it up again, and see what happens.

Arcanum has more of the Fallout charm than BG2, and for good reason. ;) If you like the twisted game that was the Fallout series... then Arcanum should be rather satisfactory.
