Arcanum Preview
An "in-depth" preview on Arcanum has arisen to the surface over at Gamespot[BLOCK]In Arcanum, you play as an individual who is the reincarnated form of a great elven hero - or so he's told by the followers of the Panarii religion. In the very beginning of the game, you are lounging in a luxurious dirigible - a sort of Victorian pleasure ship in the skies - when suddenly it is ambushed by orcs in biplanes. You are the sole survivor of the resulting crash and are found by a monk named Virgil, who not only tells you about your former life, but also implies that you have a great destiny before you. You then set out on your journey to find out who you are. It's not unlike the way Planescape: Torment and Baldur's Gate start out. In Arcanum, you also don't know who you really are (as in Torment), yet apparently you're important (as in Baldur's Gate), so throughout the game, you'll be harassed by evil cults who would rather not see this great elven hero (you) resurrected. However, you'll find that Arcanum does not play like these recent D&D RPGs and is actually more similar to Fallout.[/BLOCK]
