Arcanum is definitely the ONE game that actually deserves and needs an Enhanced Edition-type remaster, but boy will it probably be sanitized to hell and back if it were done by the hypothetical Beamdog-type team. I would also love to see a second attempt at Dragon Commander by Larian themselves, but the same issue also arises, given how it allowed the player to commit literal war crimes and ban same-sex marriage with a huge grin on its face, not to mention how Swen himself called it something along the lines of a "game for men". Some ten years and now it seems Larian would rather forget it ever existed despite it being their first foray into the "bigger" industry scene after the original Divinity trilogy. Too bad.
My first (and so far only, the game isn't really inspiring enough to jump in for a replay so soon compared to D:OS2, for example) run was as a gith and the reactivity seems to barely exist not only when you'd think it should make your life more difficult (the only moment in Act 3 I found was the Flaming Fist quartermaster who apparently knows who githyanki are and won't sell to them, but every street peddler is perfectly fine...), but the most of Shadowheart's interactions (specifically, hiring her and anything related to her rivalry with Lae'zel) also ignore that the PC is a gith themselves. Act 2 seemed to lack ANY githyanki reactivity whatsoever, although it might be because I let Last Light be destroyed.
As for the city, one would think that given the refugee situation and it being under martial law, any strangers and outsiders running around in the streets would raise suspicion, but specifically those who are literal aliens or from a race that the surfacers have every reason to be conscious about - then again, even the Flaming Fist at Waukeen's Rest who were just attacked by a drow party can only give an equivalent of a stuck-out tongue to a drow character instead of assuming they are here to finish the job, so...
