I played a little of it when I first got it, but then I heard that it’s better to patch it. So I joined the discord for it and figured I’d look into that later. Well later turned into years, eventually I left the discord server to make space for other servers and never did wind up going back to Arcanum.
Now I’m really getting into Fallout thanks to the show, and I’ve heard many people say that if I like Fallout to try Arcanum.
So I tried to get back into the Discord, however I found I’ve been banned. Which is odd, it’s not like I got into a bad situation with an admin or anything. I pretty much never interacted with anyone. So I can only assume they saw that I was there for so long and assumed I was a bot (Or maybe someone got a DM from me back when my account was hacked), and I can’t get a hold of anyone to get back in.
I’ve heard that if I want to enjoy the game to find the multiverse edition, but apparently that’s hosted on the Discord I can’t get into.
Is it worth trying to track down an alternative means of playing that patch? And is the game really as good as they say?
Thanks in advance.

Did… did you just sign your post off, email/blog style? I can respect it.
I kinda lowkey wish there was a signature option so that we could proudly put our early 2000 forum signature banners on display.
lol like when some of us had whole paragraph long quotes, or elaborate ASCII art. I remember one guy had a nude woman in ASCII art. It was actually pretty impressive. This was back before there were apps that made them for you from images.
Indeed I did, I figured it best to do these things with style and class.
Definitely worth it even without the community patches!
Tim Cain is the man. you can’t go wrong with the guy that created Fallout.
Outer Worlds wasn’t too bad. He did that one right?
Well, Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines was fucking AWESOME and so far, sadly the only good World of Darkness game that I know of
Don’t know the game, haven’t played it. But just use one of your 5 alternative emails from yesteryear to get into the discord.
I loved this game. Boomerang and dog ftw!
I never beat it, but tlI enjoyed what I did play of it enough that if I could find my copy I might give it another go.
I have a version on Steam, the problem is I can’t get into the Discord that has the patches nor can I get up with anyone from the Discord.

Just a note for anyone else, it’s also on GOG, DRM-free. $6 currently but it goes on sale.

Do you know how I can get my hands on the Multiverse Edition fan patch? My attempts to contact anyone from the discord about the ban (I’m guessing last time my account got hacked it must have tried pestering someone from that server? That’s the leading theory anyway) have been failing, as in, I can’t get a hold of anyone.
I don’t know what that patch is, sorry.
Turns out it’s right here - https://arcanum.fandom.com/wiki/Modding_and_Patches#Arcanum_Multiverse_Edition_(AME)
What’s the discord address?
Oh here ya go - https://discord.com/invite/Fa428unYBd
Lemme know if they say anything about my situation, and thanks for checking in on my behalf… Assuming that was your intent.
That link apparently expired or something, but I tracked down another that seems to work.
My guess is you’re looking for this:

Or possibly this:

Thanks
I re-read your post with a little more understanding once I’d seen the discord.
Multiverse is apparently a mod.

Thanks, did you talk to them about the ban at all?
I see what you did there good sir.
It really is a great track. Came across it totally randomly too
