this game brought me back to RPGs.
Around 2010, I was pretty disgusted by what "modern" RPGs had to offer. Every one of them looked the same, desperately trying to mimics the TES: Oblivion/Fallout 3 style. Then, Kickstarter happened and brought us this little gem. Is it the best RPG ever made? Hell no. There's no "preparation phase" during encounters, it lacked the "precise shoot" option, weapons and skills were unbalanced and the second half of the game felt rushed. Still, it's one of my favourite titles, despite all of its flaws. It showed there's still an audience for the more classic, isometric RPGs with more limited scope, but higher priority put on climate, worldbuilding and story. Without the success of the Wasteland 2, we wouldn't have the Pillars of Eternity, Divinity: Original Sin and other, more indie titles. You probably won't have as much fun with it as I did - graphic is even more dated than in 2013, there's way bigger selection of the "classic-like" titles set in fallout-like settings and, unfortunately, early versions of the unity engine were very slow and unstable, even on powerful PCs. But still, it's a pretty fun game if you only give it a chance.
Hilft dir das weiter?
