Computer RPGs
Community for CRPG and other RPG discussions. Focus is on CRPGs, but discussion around JPRGs, ARPGs and hybrid games with RPG components is also welcome.
Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.
Memes are not banned, but the overwhelming focus is on discussions, releases and articles. Try and post memes (on an occasional basis) that would make people who don't like memes admit "OK! That was a good one!".

Yeah and the magic was so much better than the tech route. Who wants to run around and buy restock supplies for teach abilities when magic is free.
Plus carry around literal tons of garbage required to craft stuff so you're always overencumbered and your inventory is full, plus spending half your playtime in menus as you're looting, buying and sorting every component you find.
And with magic you can even get banned from using the train :D
I was banned anyway as I brought the dog around.
You should have shot up the train company then :D
My first playthrough was with the tech route; why wouldn't I pick such option considering the setting (fantasy world undergoing industrialization)?
I eventually found a super cheesy approach that made tech fights relatively easy.
You could make tons of molotovs for cheap (parts would respawn in the garbage bins). I think I figured out some way to dump a huge number of them without using AP or minimal AP.
While I love Arcanum, the world was one of kind (especially for the time), combat was not satisfying at all.
