A Postapocalyptic Classic
I never really played the original, I thought its user interface was too clunky and the gameplay was mildly offputting compared to e.g. Gold Boxes of the same era. Now I forced myself to complete the game, and it was worth it. Wasteland, as a game, still isn't perfect. It has its good sides – believable wasteland with memorable places, plotline that fits the theme, NPCs , gear. But as a whole, there's lot to be desired. The most annoying part are the random encounters which are way too common, combine this with the XP system which only rewards XP to characters who do the kills...or use their skills. As a word of advice, increase combat text speed ASAP, you'll thank me later (n.b. in some more difficult areas, it's good to slow it back down!). The UI is practically the same as in the non-remastered version, but it kind of works OK if you ignore the mouse. Inventory management is PITA in early game, but GAMBLING solves most of the issues as you can ignore looting for money. Alas, gambling also gives XP to the character so it also levels them up (word of advice: LUCK is a great stat both in and out of combat). Overall, it's not as memorable as, say, the aforementioned Gold Box games, but it's definitely worth trying.
