Arcanum is pretty mediocre but the main quest is interesting enough to keep you going.
I really like some of the companions, especially Virgil and Magnus, but it's a shame there's so much wasted potential and unfinished content.

The combat blows. Melee is doable but simply not fun to play.
Well, to be honest, guns and magic aren't either, but at least they get shit done.

Melee just requires a lot of grinding.
You need high dexterity, speed, constitution and strength as well as melee skill, dodge and some form of healing.

In my opinion it's worth playing through once at least.

It's more than I managed with Baldur's Gate 1+2.
