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.
Definitely worth it even without the community patches!
Hell yeah it is!
Just maybe keep it in turn based mode the first time because combat is brutal AF and in real time on a modern machine, is also so fast it would make Sonic the Hedgehog cry.
The mechanics are fun to fuck with in how magic and technology play on each other and it forces you to take on situations entirely differently based on your build. There's also a ton of companions and no way to have all of them in a single run. The story is also gnar.
The version on Steam works great. Pretty sure it's fully patched up with the community patches.
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.

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.
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?
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
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.
