Does arcanum continue after you have "beaten" it ?

Does Arcanum continue as a open-ended rpg after you beat the main quest ?
I could just play it to the end, but the curiosity is killing me..

No, it doesn't. Before you get to the final part of the storyline, you are informed that you can't go back when you enter the area it is contained in.

 

Downloading rryros excellent A:WIP changes that, though.

If you talk Kerghan out of his agenda, you get an extra reputation, but that's all

 

Thanks to all three of you, but isn't his username rroyo ? Is the A:WIP 4.4 possible to install with the unoffical patch any way ?
There's quite a nice fixlist for latest unoffical patch, and i wouldn't like to miss it..

 

I wrote rryros when I should've written "rryro's".

Rryro is adding the fixes from Drog's patch to A:WIP. As far as I know, you can't use both at the moment.
