Arcanum Interview

Straight from the french site Gamekult (where the answers remain intact but the questions lost a little something in translation) comes an interview with Tim Cain of Troika Games about the fantasy/ 19th century techological RPG Arcanum: Of Steamworks something something Obscura. =) Here's a little dip into the part about lastability:

Q: In Arcanum, these two worlds are conflicting. Is it a way to incite the a player to finish the game twice, the first as a magician and one second as a follower of firearms ?

A: I think people should play the game FOUR times - once as a magician, once as a technologist, once as something from both areas, and once using nothing magical or tech at all. You can play through the story and the areas so differently, and some quests and dialogs cannot be seen with the same character.
