I'm so disturbed by this game... terribly disappointed. I played the original Wasteland on a Commodore 64 and still consider it to be one of the greatest games ever made. If I had to make a top ten list, Wasteland might be #1. But this god awful POS? I'm not a big graphics person, but come on...

Wasteland 2 , a sequel to an '80s classic and a spiritual successor to the '90s Fallout titles, was a game few were clamoring for, but many fans of computer RPGs were eager to support through Kickstarter given the opportunity.

InXile Entertainment took it upon themselves to bring back a true gem from the past. Wasteland is a game that hails from a long-forgotten age of RPGs. The short version is that Wasteland is sort of a predecessor to Fallout, and it served as inspiration for the Fallout franchise in general.

There's a cool sense that your choices make an impact on the world around you; and some missions were exciting; especially when you have to decide the faith of certain colonies

Unpolished in many aspects; ranging from gameplay to AI; story won't be the reason why you'd eventually return to this game; it's just not thrilling enough; the ambience is slightly underwhelming

Wasteland 2 ($39.99) is a return to the classic computer RPG (CRPG) conventions that have been largely absent in the contemporary gaming scene. CRPGs have seen a recent resurgence with the release of Divinity: Original Sin and Shadowrun, and developer InXile Entertainment has followed suit with a...

Choices have significant impact on the game world; Beefy story.

Simplistic combat; Uninspired character models.

Wasteland 2 , for the most part, provides everything that its Kickstarter backers and fans of the genre are looking for.  It has genuine role-playing, a lot of exploration, solid tactical combat, and a long and satisfying campaign.

Wasteland 2 is proof that a Kickstarter funded game can be great. What inXile Entertainment did with the nearly $3 million in funds from Kickstarter is nothing but incredible and proof that a solid, fun gaming experience does not need a movie sized budget.

One of the biggest successes from the age of the Kickstarter is now out in the wild. Will backers be happy with how it turned out?

+ Engaging world; plenty of options; replay value; huge adventure

- Some of the combat can get a bit monotonous; as can levelling and inventory management

Wasteland 2 had two things every great Kickstarter campaign needs: nostalgia and a celebrity developer prepared to sever all ties corporate publishers. Has Brian Fargo delivered on the hopes of thousands of willing gamers? Ben Allen has the verdict.

Gigantic, well-built and evocative game world; Excellent voice acting; Solid turn-based combat system; Chock full of weighty moral choices with both emotional and story consequences

A bit dated graphically and in one or two mechanical ideas

Post-apocalyptic stories usually agree on one thing: technological progress in such dire straits tends to slow to a glacial crawl. The heroes prowl about the wastes with tech that should have been outdated decades ago, and they refashion it to meet the needs of their generation and pray that it...

Excellent story writing; Meaningful choices; Rich party design options

Some unclear objectives; Heavy focus on specific skills

Il mercato dei GDR sta vivendo quello che potremo definire come un periodo di completa ridefinizione del genere. Spaccato in metà da due filosofie di gameplay diametralmente opposte, abbiamo da un lato il settore tripla A che propone produzioni dove il lato ruolistico è sempre meno importante,...

Un vero GDR; Comparto narrativo molto curato; Old-school fino al midollo

Tecnicamente debole; Qualche bug di troppo; La traduzione italiana è presente; ma non completa
