Its interesting, but I think it might just be an update of Wasteland. The beta is horribly broken and resembles an alpha release, specifically I think custom characters break the save game feature. It sort of just resembles a cheap Unity rehash like Shadowrun Returns. I found myself playing the Fallout 1 and 2 soundtracks while gaming, the background music becomes a bit harsh. At $60 bucks its a bit much to become invested in at this point. There’s such a lack of Western RPGs at this point that it still is appealing. But I have a feeling the Fallout pack on GOG wasn’t a coincidence. If you are looking for a more refined experience, simply pick up the mods for Fallout 1 + 2 and go back into it. Ultimately, Wasteland 2 says to me that games like Fallout, for the fans at least, was a singular event. That maybe that was the high point, and its all simply remakes at this point.
