I couldn't bring myself to play Fallout 2 very far (never got ahold of Fallout 1, and am not going to). Turn-based combat kills all semblance of fun for me. For the love of all things good, do you really need to spend minutes for every bleeding minor encounter?
Arcanum was worse. Its combat was poor, its gameplay balance off, and... well, there are too many flaws in it to list. I gritted my teeth and played to the second town or so, at which point I decided that I would rather not punish myself.
NWN generated quite a number of Bioware-haters. Let's leave it at that.
I miss the good ol'Infinity Engine.
