Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura

The best part about Arcanum is that you can do well with any build you dream up, as long as you play to that build's strengths. That idea should be central to any ROLE PLAYING game, but it's usually lost in favor of a few OP'ed combat skills, or buffing intelligence to pick one of two dialogue options. Or, instead of a few obviously more important skills, you have a game where any build works but you'll be a game breaking demi-God by the tenth level... I'm thinking of Bethesda games where you don't have to abide by your thief build constraints, because you can out-magic or out-melee anything anyway, completely ignoring your thiefly abilities for most of the game. Not here. Pick a diplomatic character, talk your way out of most things, and when you can't, have your party of allies fight it out for you. Or be an incredibly evil mage that everyone hates and just blow up all of your obstacles. You get the idea. Your character choices will also impact your experience of the game. There aren't any stupid mini-games or percentile chances of succeeding with a skill you haven't developed... you simply won't be able to do it. The story is a clever twist on the chosen one angle. The side quests and optional stuff usually feels just as well developed as the main plot, although there are some plain fetch quests and such. Now the bad: the stupid, horrible, lame level cap! There is a mod to remove it, but I wanted the vanilla experience, so I ended up hitting the level cap a third of the way into the game, and from that point on, I rushed through to the end. I ignored all side quests at that point, there was no need to do them. I was as rich and as powerful as I needed to be, many times over in fact. I was indestructible until the very end, where I was mildly challenged again. There's no universal loot chests, so you have to store everything in some random cabinet. Also, merchants don't all sell or accept every item. This makes sense logically, but it can be frustrating.

Для тех, кто читает. Подскажите пожалуйста, как поменять разрешение в игре, а то я ничего не понимаю! Если нужно скачивать патчи, то откуда у игры весит 1 ГБ, если чистая steam-версия без весит меньше 1 ГБ (точно не помню сколько). (Если что, никакого негатива к игре, наоборот, игра очень хороша, просто вопрос) Спасибо за понимания)))
