Just made me want to play Fallout again

I think the skills are more cluttered than they need to be. Fallout had this down 15 years earlier (I do appreciate the first Wasteland pre-dated Fallout 1). The combat isn't bad, but not particularly good either. I moved between being interested in the story to simply not wanting to fight another group of same-y raiders, realizing that's how the gameplay flow would probably be for 20 hours. I got it as a freebie, so I don't feel too gypped.

Most frustrating game I've ever played

I've been playing video games for 35 years. I'm guessing I've played close to a thousand titles. This is the most frustrating game I've ever played. It is the kind of game that is fun 75% of the time but is so mind-numbingly bad the other 25% it doesn't really matter. The things that really stick out (difficulty spikes, ridiculously long encounters, massive sections of the game with no variety in combat/enemies) are all design flaws. It is absolutely infuriating.

post-apoc oldschool goodness

I'd like to give this 4.5 stars, if there was a bit more rating granularity. If you are after loot explosions and mindless clickfests, or are allergic to reading, this won't be your cup of tea. If on the other hand you want a gritty, dark (but with understated touches of humor) post-apocalyptic RPG that rewards tactics and resource management, this might be just your game. I am about 30% through my first play through, on "Ranger" difficulty (one notch below the hardest). The game is nicely resource constrained on the higher difficulties, particularly if you don't cheat by reloading. That means there are locks you will break permanently, doors you won't open, resources you'll never acquire. You end up finishing fights thinking, "Have I found enough rounds of 5.56mm to make up for what I expended killing those mutants?" You might even want a backup weapon skill for those times you've run out of ammo for your main weapon and all you can find is a few rounds for that old 38cal pistol you've been lugging around. The post-apoc atmosphere is top notch. The are radio broadcasts from other squads "out there" in the wasteland, interesting characters to talk to, and an intriguing story to explore. It's a gritty world of burnt out trucks, rusted out abandoned buildings, sawed off shotguns, and choices that save or destroy communities. The native Linux version works great on Kubuntu 14.04; No crashes, only very minor bugs. On the negative side, random encounters are a good dynamic but feel repetitive. Unlike the primary exploration, the random encounters use a few "canned" maps, so feel a bit samey. Also, not all the dialog is voice acted, and some fights are too easy even on the 2nd hardest difficulty. Overall, it's imperfect, but still the best squad based tactical rpg in years. It was clearly made by folks who value the genre, not by a soulless EA-type company. More than worth buying, IMHO.

Don't mind the neg. reviews. (Linux)

Short review - I read all the negative reviews, but bought the game (on sale) anyway. I'm glad I did. Still in my first campaign and I understand why the game has some of these reviews. The game is not boring but it does have it's technical problems, as in it crashes every so often. Save your games and it's a non-issue. There are people who have reported fixing their problems for good, I have not achieved that yet but might care enough eventually to fix it, it doesn't crash enough for me to care. The devs were not lazy making this game, it just has some high and low points to it. They did a good job making this like the old-school rpg games, lot's of nostalgia items and quotes that I'm sure a lot of the kids don't understand or have memory of. Fun game, I hope they make another.

Fallout: New Arizona

I received the "Director's Cut" of Wasteland 2 for free a while back and what a gem it turned out to be! - If you're a fan of the turn-based isometric role-playing-games like Fallout 1 & 2 and enjoy the western look of New Vegas, then my friend you're in for a treat. The two series share so many similarities that for a long time I actually thought they were set in the same post-apocalyptic world. - Sadly, I fear Fallout/Wasteland fans will be the only ones that truly appreciate this title, since newcomers will be immediately put off by the DATED GRAPHICS and difficulty in CREATING A COMPETENT TEAM. - Fear not however, as there are many guides to creating the "perfect team" found over the internet. I admit to even using a mod called "Wasteland 2 save and char editor" found over at Nexusmods.com to adjust some of my stats later on, so as to not start the game all over again. Thing is, once I actually started playing, everything just fit into place and I stopped worrying about having the "perfect team". - When it comes to graphics, you either accept the dated look or move on. I recommend at least grabbing "Wasteland2 DC Patchwork Mod" from Nexusmods.com, since it fixes the camera view a bit. - Voice acting is good, just wish there was more of it. Ambient music is also good. - Without a doubt the BEST PART about Wasteland 2 is the journey you embark on. Exploring the war-torn world, meeting different factions each with their own quirks, picking sides and settling disputes, all make for a great time. - Just make sure you have ample free time as the campaign is quite lengthy, taking place on 2 large maps, Arizona and California. Nobody that finished this game can complain that it was too short. As I said in the beginning, Wasteland 2 is a real gem. But the initial experience can feel more like a "diamond in the rough".
