About Arx Fatalis...

If you play a bit, I mean a great part of it, you will find some "crossovers" with Uw. It will take a huge time to complete the game, and a lot more without a walkthrough. Just to mention, Tyball and Garamon accidentally released the Slasher of Veils (that was meant to be a kind of boss in the real Ultima 9 game) and something similar to it happened in Arx, that I'm not going to tell you.

Another thing, though not as important, is the use of runes that can be found scattered and they are blue stones with golden inscriptions, very much like uw.

The main quest is not to allow a very powerful being to be released in the world. Another similarity.

The cheat gregor mentioned is like this. "Write" UUW with your mouse when casting a spell that the world will look a bit different.

A noticeable crossover are the Sisters of Edernum in Arx. They resemble the lizardmen in Uw1, although are snakes rather than lizards.

Another thing is in the combat system. There are three types of attack, just like in Uw, but this is enough for now.

Just to make it clear... Uw is far better than Arx for me. I'm just saying it is a honorable honor to Uw, that's all...
