I agree, a steampunk sandbox would be pretty badass.
also is arcanum of steamworks and magick obscura as good as i keep hearing?
Yes it is, but it's best to have it patched to the 1.0.74 version and going to www.terra-arcanum.com/downloads and opting for either the UAP (Unofficial Arcanum Patch) or rroyo's WIP 6.0, which adds quite a lot to the game, as well as having numerous hacks already compiled, like the ranged hack that tweaks and overall improves guns. The blade launcher in vanilla is 20-60 damage, but eats up 6 bullets per shot, under the WI it's 30-70 damage and only costing 4 bullets per shot, a rather impressive improvement.
You can find it off of the good old games website, I was lucky that a friend was willing to give me his physical copy in exchange for my still-working cartridge of Super Metroid.
