So I began a new game of Arcanum and upon entering Dernholm I grabbed the newspaper on the ground. usually I throw it in the bin but I kept it for no real reason. Spoiler I was shocked to find out that I could use the paper to convince the mayor of Blackroot to rejoin Cumbria! After all these years I have never known this, my old prima guide didn't even mention this outcome. The things we discover even now.
That is awsome, the first newspaper next to the inn? I also started a new character and just got to Dernholm, i'm gonna try that! I also discovered today that you could make Ristezze tell you where P. Schuyler is without giving him the shoe or the camera!
Persuasion can get you a lot of things but I was really impressed to find out about the newspaper next to the Dernholm inn. I had always figured it was just a bit of lore so you knew what was going on in Cumbria.
I recommend that everybody puts at least one point into persuasion. Even slight improvements to persuasion open the game up considerably.
I agree, so far my character has 1 point in persuasion and there are some dialogue options I've never seen before, and I've even completed the game as a persuasion master with the special persuasion ending.
