Thanks for Reading!
you just keep cranking out good stories, i have no idea how you do it but i'm glad you do.
Very interesting story and concept. I'm excited to see where you go with this. There were a few places where the writing was a bit weir but that might have been me miss reading somehow. Good work!
I played the game, at least part of it, back in the day. I remember thinking while the game itself was frustrating, it had a very unique "world" it was set in. So I look forward to reading adventures set in it.
And yeah, Arcanum is one of my favorite games. This is actually all going to be based off an actual Lets Play I'll be doing. I have a notes page and everything!
This entire chapter?
It was the first 5 minutes of the game.
This game is 60 hours long.
WE MIGHT BE HERE FOR A WHILE AHHHHHHHHH
I really like this story, cant wait for the next few chapters to see where you take this. He is the one.... hmm
If there isnt a part where a mage doesnt just spam harm I'll be upset. also, hi all Arcanum fans.
thank you for this
Sadly, there will be less harm spamming than there would have been if my patreons had voted for Lysander V'Neef, the beautiful elven mage. He was option two on the patreon poll, see.
But Rayburn won, so Rayburn is our hero!
But...a certain jeweler may indulge that spam, hmm...
Hmm. First I'm hearing about the game, which is a shame cuz BG and its Enhanced Edition was a blast. Unlike BG and its EE, there actually appears to be some mods floating around that improve the games resolution, which means I've slapped it onto my wishlist on Steam to buy when I get paid in a few days. That's one of the things that irritated me about Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition: it still used (mostly) older style art graphics that are simply murder on my eyes. Arcanum just by itself doesn't look nearly as bad, and if there's stuff out there to improve it I reckon I might actually get through the game.
Looking forward to the continuation of this!
Dex based builds (e.g, sword and board or archery) are really easy.
Harm is the most broken fucking spell in the game.
Technology is hard to do on a first run! Rayburn Cog is an expert.
...also I cheated and gave him 18 int, 18 cha and maxed out persuasion from level 1.
Hell yeah! Glad to have stumbled over this story. Your wording is wonderful, immediately merging my mind and imagination with the thoughts of your first person protagonist. It's funny, witty, Virginia is a blast and after three pages you've poured a gallon of subplosts on top of your dear reader. Well done! Off to the next chapter.
