Yeah, it's one of those games that are a bit too eclectic for their own good.
That's actually a 3000 year old demon just pretending to be a schoolgirl, so it's fine.

Finished my "being dwarven" gimmick run. It was a breeze, naturally (thanks to gimmick itself which was posted above) but very enjoyable one, had a lot of fun. Funny that since I haven't launched the game for a several years I forgot a lot of things and thus fucked up minmax whoring big time. First of all, I remembered about All-Father's blessing only mid-game but at that point I had max tech aptitide so I could't buy statue for one of the temples from elven vendor in Ashbury. Not to mention that since All-Father's blessing gives 12 firearm skill points among other things, wise cource of action would be not to spend them and get through with undeveloped firearm skill (although it migth be preeeetty tiresome to do the circles without teleportation spell, so...).
Second of all, completely forgot about Vivifier being available to... anyone thanks to manuals so few stat points were wasted as well. Third of all, for crafting Tesla Gun wise cource of action is to steal Looking Glass Rifle from firearms Master (which he gives to player in case of renouncing obtaining mastery) via fate point but again, I remembered about it only afterwards (pretty tough encounter by the way) and he was gone at that time.
But no matter, it was such an overkill anyway since I used few companions and crafted some automatons for beating Stringy Pete. But after doing that I cba to level up more so just went to the finish line.
Few very unfortunate notes regarding vanilla: str bonus from machined plate mail doesn't work at all. And Vendigroth theme doesn't play in Vendigroth ruins, that's a shame, I like it a lot
So yeah, thouse are pretty significant to curb my vanilla faggotry and to play some modded versions next time maybe (but they have so much other bs in it usually, eh).

Never paid attention before, huh. By the way, saw pretty similiar statues in Underrail's Expedition

Yeah, speaking with elfs might be tiresome.

Stupid orcs are stupid.
Yep, they're pretty powerful and doesn't count as followers i.e. you can craft as many as you can/want which is kinda crazy. Also you can repair them for free outside of combat (and medical arachnid heals you and you companions for free anytime).whoa you can craft robots in Arcanum??!! Every time I find something new about this game
