Their final rating is 9/10, and they describe the game as huge and interesting: Arcanum is so huge that I can see how some gamers would shy away from playing it. All the choices and complexities do have a higher learning curve than most games, but it is absolutely worth it. Troika has included pre-created characters and default level systems so the casual gamer won't have to bother with the sometimes overwhelming choices if they don't wish. Once you jump in, and get the hang of the controls the story will draw you in, and you'll be hooked. This one will be on your PC for months. I got my (german) copy today, and will certainly do a review for this site. BTW - if you have the german version of Arcanum and live in Austria or in Switzerland, you are certainly in for a treat: the game won't install - at least as long as you don't switch the country settings to german/standard. Just to let you know...
