Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magicka Obscura
Iโd get to laugh at every single wizard trying to board a train without it blowing up due to magic fucking up technology before I get screwed over by one of the soulless, greedy, vapid, mouth-breathing creatures known as gnomes.
I cannot understand why there's no modern sequel in the works. A well loved classic RPG with steam punk elements and union themes seems like a no-brainer in the current environment.
And the all string soundtrack was a perfect choice.
I think the modern equivalents sort of got swallowed by Eberron - to make the setting not-shitty for tabletop Eberron removed the opposition and the setting ended up much less thematic... but it sort of stole the spotlight.
