Very happy I backed this.

As a backer I have been following this game from the beginning. I have seen the results of inXile listening to our feedback. They really have put significant effort into making the game that WE want while staying true to the original Wasteland's feel and gameplay. The setting, atmosphere, storytelling, and excellent voice acting make this a very engrossing saga that makes me crave more time in my schedule to play. Yes there's a lot to read but it's ALL very well written and worth reading. The combat is quite satisfying. Many are knocking the sparse availability of ammunition but I think that's a huge plus. It really makes you conserve resources and think about the best way to approach any conflict. You shouldn't approach combat as a run in, guns blazing, shootout. The reason I'm giving it 4/5 stars is because: 1. The camera controls are starting to become annoying. At first I thought they wouldn't bother me. But some scenarios with more confined spaces really make it an issue to have a poor angle and sluggish rotation. 2. Using skills becomes tedious when you have to switch to the right character with the skill, add the skill to your hotbar if it isn't there, then click the skill, and then click the target. Way more work than necessary in my opinion. Thank you for reading my review.

The Wasteland 1 polished

The game lets to create 4 characters and to use others 3 from a list of NPC. Each character has attributes and skills, equal to the first game from the 80’s. In this game the attributes have less impact than the skills, and they are gained only by leveling or with specific items and events. The way to use uses the skills is very polished as compared with the first part. Each one of them will give you certain advantage or benefit. For the exploration 2 skills will help you to avoid battles or getting better positions, move faster and find caches in the open world. The dialogue system is very similar to Fallout 1 and you has 4 skills for getting different dialogues options, THOUGH you need to use them immediately or will be lost, and you need at least 2 of skills for getting different approaches to the quest. The other skills are related to open containers, disable traps and alarms, weapons and, the favorite of Biargo: Repair toasters. The game history is well written and funny, but is a little classic, from the firsts minutes of the game, you have a good notion of who or what could be the bad guy. The battle system is based in turns and ruled by the weapons skill but is from the old school, so, probably will be seen as “limited” or with poor implementation of cover and ambush. However, each battle scenario has been made for giving the player a variety of possible tactics, except the generic battles in the overwolrd. In battle, you are not forced to migrate to lasers or heavy weapon as simple pistols will be useful in the final battle, neither the best armor will protect you against everything, actually it make you more vulnerable to laser weapons. The graphics are probably the most weaken point of the game, this is linked to the graphic motor chosen. Still, the atmosphere wished by the developers is reached. By last, my first game was more than 30 hours and the game have different finals and some secrets, guaranteeing certain replayability.

Good game, with mods possible a gem

I just finished the game and have mixed feelings about Wasteland 2. On the other hand the great story and the world with the unique post-apocalyptic feeling are just spot on with just a right amount on 90s RPG touch ... but then the few quirks with take away one star from being a classic. These quirks are: *Skill system with the random factor which puts even the maxed out characters to quick load+quick save combo which really spoils the feeling on "being there" *Weapon in-balance. The bullet/energy weapon vs no armor/heavy armor system is sort of cool idea but as the game goes on becomes really artificial and makes the ending too easy even with 1 or 2 characters with laser weapons *Too few character portraits. This sounds a small issue but it spoils the feeling to see same faces everywhere. Then there´s some small glitches here and there but all in all a good game which could be modded to being a great game. I´m guessing the skill system won´t be changed in a patch.

Solid

Buggy, and unfortunately the developers are not concerned about this. Good, in spite of the bugs.

Excellent Tactics game

If you like turn based tactics games, then you will love this game. If you hate them... then don't bother. If you don't know much about tactics games and want to give one a try, then this is a good option. Solid story, solid tactics games. It has a few hiccups like inventory management but most people who really like tactics games won't be put off by that. I didn't even notice it as an issue until I read a review complaining about it. I like the humor and I like the characters. The story is entertaining, and there are a decent variety of weapon types to choose from. Also please note that the director's cut is a vast improvement over the base game. Base wasn't bad, but the director's cut does a lot of little things that make your life easier and also adds in a ton of extra voice acting. All in all I highly recommend this game unless you just can't take turn based tactics games.
