	[quote name="Kab(uke) Seme"][quote name="curst"]Arcanum was by far the most goddamn boring RPG I've ever played in my life. I'm not sure it's the worst, but it's by far the dullest. Even Might & Magic 7 was better, since I at least could work myself up into a frothing frenzy over how awful it was. The only thing I remember actually hating from Arcanum was that manual. Shit like "And if thou chanceth upon an obstacle that proves insurmountable? Quail not, brave souls, for the F4 key doth restore your quick-save!" to which I can only say FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU YOU MINCING PRANCE-PRANCE-REVOLUTION FAGGOTS wasn't this supposed to be a fun game like Fallout at some point? What happened to that plan? Was the dev team <i>really</i> comprised of a bunch of folks responsible for Fallout, even though one game maybe couldn't better and the other maybe couldn't be worse? The manual had me hating the game before I installed it, but somehow the game is so <i>dreary</i> that the hate subsided into pure tedium. I killed some wolves, I entered a dull-as-fuck-looking town and heard someone yammering about a labor dispute with dwarves or something and I think that's when I quit. Kohan was identically boring. I have no idea if Kohan 2 is any better or not, but it's not like I give a shit either. SUPPLY ZONES OMG 97% GAME OF THE YEAR. I'm still pissed that I picked up Ahriman's Gift out of the bargain bin because of the insanely positive word-of-mouth. It's the most overrated-by-its-ultrawhorish-fanboys game since System Shock 2.[/quote] <img src="http://www.rpgplanet.com/arcanum/images/screen36b.gif"></img> Odd bodkins, sirrah![/quote]
