I understand the concept of karma, but tell me...where do I find out my statistics? I can't find any number or bar which tells me how my karma is doing.

Well i dont think in game there is a way to see your karma, not that ive found.
And how exactly does karma affect you?
does having lots of karma make it easier to buy / sell things, or make NPC's actually give a **** about your minor quest to save the world? and does having negative karma mean you find it harder to get people to be friendly?

i haven't knowest a difference in how karma affects you at all. if it did, i would think they would put an indicator for you. maybe they were going to but time didn't allow it. there were other things that time didn't allow, a few title perks and such. may be this was one of them.

That's right. There's a shopkeeper at the intersection west of Barcelona who shows you better items if your karma is high enough. Otherwise, it's not really used in the game. You can get your karma to show up, but it involves modifying the game files. (And before you ask, no, I don't remember how to do it.)

karma

There is no numerical value for your character's Karma, although i think it does affect the game a little. If you have a lower karma, you'll find it more difficult to deal with other people, be it shopkeepers or just other characters. Though i prefer to have a higher karma...

but it's nothing high speech and barter skills can't fix so it's still pointless

Its like in the manual it says several or most racial traits will cause others to react negatively towards you, i think thats what karma is all bout.

soo... people just say things bout you due to your karma... still high speech & barter can allow you to buy things from people that don't like you even if your karma is bad, so...

... so maybe some people will not be as pleased with you when you first engage them in a conversation
