Arx Fatalis is one of my most favourite games, just played it through recently again. It's very immersive, because there's almost no music at all except in story-based narration sequences, it relies entirey on ambience sounds and the quiet mood. In many ways similar to Ultima Underworld I & II (in fact it was back then a spiritual successor, at least design-wise), unfortunately also much too short, I wish it would be a bigger game and last longer.
Highly recommended, also if you intend to play it on Windows 8 or 10 you'd probably need to install the Arx Libertatis port of the game, it enables the game to run on modern systems while making no changes to it gameplay-wise.

Absolutely correct
 
Yes, yes this a very nice game indeed.

And Yes the gamer has to install and start Arx Libertatis 1.1.2.

The humble yoga starving to reach powerful Capo the best gamer in AB (i think this is unmöglich-impossible) started the game and just killed both snake - Frauen and first artefact is mine.

What was Yr hardest moment, please?

That would be me trying to stay alive when attacked by the Evil Chicken of Hell when summoned through a specially modified Summon Demon spell (with 3 Mega runes at the start). I don't even mention the insanely deadly Ylside with golden armor, which sometimes gets summoned instead, that is only possible through cheesy tactics.

Yes, the game is not easy at all, even if you take advantage in the first room, when moving a bone 10 times you get a wonderful weapon, armor and all spells. I keep crying that this game is not followed by 2nd, 3rd ..:blush:

OFF
I started again Clouds of Xeen (for 13 times) using nice ExoDos. Sehr gut.

Trying to Reload saves again freezed.
Very bad.

Maybe some Virtual box to install XP.

Perhaps I wasn't as active on here as some users were, but I did have some good banter on Abandonia years ago.

Sadly, Twitter, Reddit, Facebook and all that pish just had to come along and render message boards so very dead. About the only active gaming forum left online is GameFAQs. There's ResetEra too, and NeoGAF. But ResetEra is hard to sign up to.

However, I don't recommend visiting GameFAQs or GameSpot at all. I posted there in the past and there were so many tossers responding, not really contributing anything that made being active worth my while. So I left, only to be more active on sites I hadn't really visited much. The response was much better, until this pathetic Australian fool showed up in 2017 on biohaze.com, and has been stalking me on a regular basis ever since. But Jesus. I have known this idiot since 2004. So that's rather sad, to be honest.

Time catches up with everything.
