Everything we loved from 2 is here, and then some. The management, the choice, the RPGness, you name it. Usually it wouldn't be the case if it was EA or some other trash company, but the fact that Microsoft acquired InExile was really good for the game, it allowed the to do so much more.

Something I started doing that helps me beat inventory management problems is to implement thresholds at various points in the game. If it’s not a direct upgrade to what I have now or something specifically useful, then I’ll toss anything worth under X value, with X increasing over the course of the game. It’s cut out hours of deciding what to keep and massively streamlined the management process.

I played the Og wasteland on commodore 64. Great stuff. I'm so glad these guys are succeeding with this franchise.

good review but little bit more consideration for spoilers would be nice, you just told me the whole plot beginning to end pretty much.

Watching those clips from Fallout 76 at the start made me feel like I was high for a moment there

THIS is the game I've been waiting for. There's an area in Wasteland 2 where you encounter 2 factions in conflict. There are many different outcomes to achieve, but the only way to get the ultimate peaceful outcome takes analysis and multiple negotiation trips and certain party skills. You have to pick up on some very subtle clues to even realize this outcome existed. I didn't achieve it, only reading about the possibility later. If there is any crpg you want to experience with hardcore rules in play,(no reloading, accept all outcomes and character deaths and move on,) Wasteland is it.

He keeps running upto overpowered enemies and getting killed FFSLOL. I wish I could tell him to chill out a bit and pick his targets. I have to keep reloading because animals perma-die and its usually my guy Major Tomcat who's the first to go because of his senseless lack of self preservation! Maybe if cats HAD 9 lives in this game it'd be okay, but they don't :*(

The encounter start thing highlights a major weakness with round based group combat in general I feel. It technically would make a lot more sense if each individual group member and enemy involved in the encounter had their own turn determined by their initiative, so instead of the group that has the fastest individual character basically getting off a rounds worth of free attacks, the fastest characters would be the ones to act first and the slow ones the ones to act last.

Good to hear that there're others that're put off by Pillars of Eternity's wall of text. I bought it and Deadfire long time ago and havent finished it due to not having the right mood to play. After a hard day's of work, I find it hard to focus on that amount of stimulation. It's only enjoyable when you're have time to properly sit down and immerse yourself without worrying what time to start preparing for bed.

Great game. The voice acting really stands out and makes the story memorable.

There's a lot of bugs and a lack of polish, though none game-breaking, but my main complaint is the camera and how clunky it is to control. Gets in the way mostly during exploration, but doesn't do combat any favors either :/

In regards to combat: Use the control to command your team individually so you can position them at cover ready for a fight. Then make sure you attack without your initiative guy. Best to use a sniper for options. try and find choke points like corridors. Position most of your team near the entrance (inside), crouch them and have them set to ambush. Have one or two of your dudes out front to attack from stealth to set the enemies off. Then retreat into the corridor and work back down it. As they come in you can use your explosives guy, flamers and machine gun special kills to take out their bunched up group. If you stagger your guys into two separate lines you can protect yourself from the same treatment. Honestly cant stress how easy it is to win when you are drawing them out of the tinny doorway you came in trough rather than having to clear the room.

And here I was, feeling nostalgia for those 30 minute long(ish) SkillUp reviews... Thanks buddy! Also, 2:05 I guess we finally know what happened to Laymen. Hehe 😅

Starting with melee at the start of the game on the hardest difficulty is a very very ballsy move, melee doesn't come to its own until waaay into the game.

I never thought I’d see a Jeremiah Johnson reference on KZread in my lifetime.

Watched your review. Got on xbox game pass for PC. Been playing for the past 6 days. Great game, a few bugs here and here, (it feels almost like they needed another 2 months before release to clean up.) Probably one of the best RPGs I have played in recent memory. As far as performance goes, I am running a dell xps 13 with an i7-8565U and integrated graphics. The game is very playable on lowest settings. Probably about 25-30 fps, which is certainly doable for this type of game, though I would not want 20-30 fps in a first person shooter. Did notice that every time I launched the game, I had to reset the display settings because they defaulted back to medium with motion blur. Thanks for the review! Well done as always. =D

Absolutely stellar game. It really tries to use a story and characters that get complicated and messy. Not to mention the freedom it gives the player to experiment and try new ways of doing things. And I love it. Has great humor, as well as provides some good grit. Just like any good western. Except this one has more cold steel than hot.

The inventory management point was amazing. The limit cap just seems like the default design choice for most developers. Emphasizing realism instead of enjoyment.

actually if you strike first then your team gets to go first as it's a sneak attack, however if you walk into the enemy's line of sight then it comes down to a roll of the two groups initiative.

12:54 Yeah that mask reminds me of the porno quest in Atom RPG. Never thought my week would start remembering that one.

wasn't gonna even give this game a glance ... if its SkillUp approved though, I'm 100% trying it now

Its free on game pass so I tried it. I'm still a bit unaccustomed to the crpg format(because of my fps and rpg riddled brain) but it still stands out and might be the sleeper hit of the year even for me, a guy who has never played a crpg.

@@santhoshsridhar5887 so far, would you recommend Wasteland 3? (And you can be totally honest). I'm just like you, I've never played a CRPG in my life. I'm more accustomed to 1st & 3rd-person RPGs and a few FPSs so I have no idea what I'd be getting myself into lol

I like the shining hotel cameo in Aspen, nice detail : )

Thanks for the review! I will be checking this out.

This is one of the most immersive, layered, and entertainingly dark games I have ever played. Edit: I trust your word for reviews more than any other channel online. Thank you

I believe I found A Jim Sterling reference at the Bazaar, love this game.

I've been interested in this ever since I heard about it at E3. Especially since I live in Colorado, its neat this game takes place in my state

Wow, glad I didn't have any of those technical problems you had. I have had one crash though.

I honestly never heard of this game until I watched a spanning review video that showed background footage of this while talking about other games and I was like "screw crappy generic shooter #374, I want to see more of what's playing in the segways!"

“Video game that somehow predates the human race” lmfao

Looks like my old Ranger team (cept for Pilz, he doesn't like to travel in fear of getting somewhere he can't score Heroin) is going to the land of Mountains and Marijuana! Stoked to dig in to the sequel.

Fantastic Review Ralph. might check it out.

I'm playing via Game Pass on PC and it's weird how buggy it is sometimes, I even encountered an infinite money exploit when I arrived outside of the Bizarre. Other than the minor bugs and glitches, the game is very fun although some aspects are more streamline, the combat and random encounters are really fun to experience, I love the weapon and armor modding skill, there's a wider range of companions you can recruit, some of them are characters from Wasteland 2 imo try it out of on the Game Pass, it's going for $1 right now and it's a good service overall

yes, it does have a LOT of minor technical issues, but so far nothing that has run me to ground yet. I do wish they had made the pets NOT get involved in combat though. they just clutter up everything.

Great vid! This convinced me to try this game out! Thx!

as a diehard Divinity series fan I wasnt expecting much. I couldn't get into Xcom etc. But gave it a real chance. and by god did it grip me! I cannot wait till I get off work so I can play some more. its brilliant.

After wishing and longing for another Shadowrun - I guess I'll try this out. Edit: I admittedly had seen enough 7 minutes in....And then you mentioned the ronald reagan shit and I had to buy it immediately. Holy shit, that's amazing.

I got the Apple ear buds for Christmas . They’re ok , they fit good . Thought they would sound better

I laughed SO HARD at 9:13 I watched as endless waves of plasma bombarded your squad - just kept expecting it to stop - for your party to die, but instead the big plasma balls got *BIGGER* and WAY more aggressive and frequent, to the point that I started actually laughing out loud alone in my room. Def gonna make sure I put points into encounter initiative or whatever. Lol.

Playing this right now on gamepass and its all kind of incredible. Can't put it down

Wasteland 3 is one of the best CRPG's since Pathfinder Kingmaker and Disco Elysium imo and if you are a fallout fan or CRPG fan in general then you owe it to yourself to play this (on PC..heard the console versions are very buggy atm).

i agree. i just started the game after finishing the first two, and it’s kind of a love letter to fans. i love it

Just finished the story of this game today! This review initially put it in my sights, thanks for spreading the good news of this masterpiece!

It's a shame how few CoOp CRPG's exist, this has turned into my favorite genre. Deciding with my friends whether we are going to be good guys or complete pieces of shit is a hoot.

I hate turn based combat but you've convinced me to give this a try. Couple hours in and enjoying it so far

Same for me. I loved Baldur's Gate pausable realtime combat system and I never liked the turn-based system, but here I have no problem with it. I enjoy it, actually. You need to use tactics.

18:53 "One thing I didn't like in combat though was the way it starts encounters" *Walks into the Scar collector Bar* I felt that so fucking hard

Just bought this and Xcom 2 today. Very excited to play after I finish Rogue Trader

I feel the ending sequence after dealing with the Patriarchs 3 kids was kind of weak. It felt insanely rushed and like there was some exposition missing before the ending summary rolled.

two words: budget constraints

I’m looking forward to playing this when it comes in the mail. Glad you enjoyed it play wasteland 2 bud it’s just as good

This game is a ton of fun Coop. It actually makes it harder to open every door. Just because you will need your teammate there if they have that skill. That makes for some really funny stories.

This was an A+ game despite a few bugs I ran into. I too did the 12 hour marathon sessions which are increasingly rarer (i.e. non-existent) for me these days. It was a surprise because despite having played the first Wasteland, I did not care for nor finish the second.
