For one, a world with both technology and magick not working to cancel each other out would be much, much more stale and uninteresting. The complications added because of how they implemented magick and technology in Arcanum adds to a) the believability of the game universe (ie, making it seem less ideal and more natural, as if real physics laws are in place) and b) how you have to change your gameplay style to fit the challenge. This from the top of my head.
I think it would be more interesting for a single character to be able to use both. But that's just a very minor matter. My main problem is that I don't find exploring Arcanum's world to be anywhere as interesting as it could and should have been.
I won't bother with any other concerns you have, but let me ask you this: what did you think of Fallout 3?
I haven't played it and I don't plan to. How is it relevant ?
