Wasteland 2: Director's Cut

You play as 4 different nameless idiots that you have to create yourself. I don't want to play as a hivemind I want to play as a specific character. If you are looking for a fallout 1/2 successor this is not it.

Q: How good is Wasteland 2? A: Somewhere between mediocre and good. The Bad: -The creation process of your 4 man team is horrendous. You can choose attributes and skills, but you can't see which perks are being unlocked and what they provide for your character. If you want coherent characters, you have to build a team, start the game, read which attributes, skills and perks work well together, write down the combinations, start a new game and create a new team. -The created team and most of the characters in the game are bland and soulless (except for Angela Death and Rose). -The camera position in the game is to steep for my liking. -The UI is halfbaked, sometimes you right click on an object and it shows you all options you can do with the object, e.g. you click on a crate and it shows you that you can smash it open, picklock it and defuse it, so you defuse the trap that is attached to the crate and open it either via smashing it open or lockpicking it, on the next crate it shows you that you only can smash it open, but this crate has also a trap attached to it and it also can be lockpicked, but you can only use those skills on the crate if you select them manually from the …

Excelent game, even after 12 years. There are so many ways to solve the challenges in the game that it feels immersive and like an actual world you can use your creativity for problem solving, with not much hand holding and yellow paint. The percentages are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ btw but it's fine you get used to it.

I've never been a fan of the whole retro-futuristic aesthetic in Fallout, though the whole post-nuclear-apocalyptic concept is interesting enough. So, to me, Wasteland 2 feels like a superior version of that same idea. The freedom to build your own squad of Arizona Rangers and the crazy stuff you encounter in the Arizona wasteland is a lot of fun, and my only real complaint so far is that the game is way too difficult even on the easiest difficulty setting. At this point in my life, I don't have time to deal with very hard games, but that's a me thing and not the game's fault. Pretty good game, and I've heard the sequel is even better.

Hella fun. The graphics are interesting and the scenarios are entertaining. I can recommend to save often. There are times that you would rather just back up and make another choice than have to start from scratch. I have no secrets to this game. I just plowed through and found different stuff each time. If you ust want to run through it to say you did it. Check out the write ups and you will find all the short cuts. and hidden gems.

it's tough to recommend this game, because the repetitive combat, area design which turns each quest into a slog and jankiness really drag it down, if we were doing a CRPG tier list Wasteland 2 would probably be a low B if not a C. What makes it stand out is the charming setting, fun story/NPCs and immersion, I personally enjoy creating 4 nameless characters for roleplay purposes, but this is an unpopular opinion and of course most people don't like this at all. I really like the general atmosphere and soundtrack, probably one of my favourites in a CRPG ever. The combat gets repetitive fast....and we gotta talk about how unbalanced your party will feel once you start digging into builds. Despite this being a Director's Cut, assault rifles and sniper rifles are still king, only matched by melee weapons on SJ difficulty. I love how the skill check works, they are percentage based and very reminiscent of Fallout 1/older CRPGs, this might be a deal breaker for most but i like them. ...Damn, I guess I'll give it a thumb up but definitely get it on a sale and don't be afraid of refunding if it feels and looks too janky in the first few hours: despite the second big map of the game bei…
