There is a skill book for Weird Science named "It Just Works." You know what it means.
Nice. When you open the book, does it also show an EGA image of Kelly LeBrock and play a tune from Oingo Boingo?
@@kyriosmalaka2312 wait there's oingo biongo in the game?
@@slimesoup7944 not that I'm aware of
HAHAHA now that's good comedy
Lmao
this game made everything feel like a main quest in quality
It is good to hear that. Even main quests in Bethesda rpgs sometime felt like side quests
@@TheKestevon This comment rings more true 4 years later
Loving this game so far. I have a hard time playing Fallout 1 and 2, due to the perspective, but I find this a lot more playable. I like the pacing a lot more than Wasteland 2 as well. Wasteland 2 pretty much throws you into a few very hard missions at the beginning. Here you basically start in a playground.
Exactly. I didnt stick to Wasteland 2 but so far i have a few hours in this one to get use to fights and using skills. Having downtown right there was a great way to go. After this i want to go back to 2 as i really wanted to enjoy the story.
So you're saying it's a lot more friendly? I too could not get into wasteland 2 and the original fallout they just aren't my typical rpg I enjoy but this one seems to be easier to get into
@@TitusKingdom it is for me. I do not do well with turn base but so far the "rookie" difficulty has been fun and has allowed me to enjoy the story (which is the description of rookie).
That's a good level design. It is something that japanese game developers always excel in.
You guys got to try hetting proper character builds and w2 again, you're missing out. This game definitely is friendlier tho especially with the missions being noted with the required level.
It's amazing when the major bugs don't interfere.
Exactly. There’s this bug where I heal my first character at the doctor but when I transition somewhere my health reverts back to what it was before I healed for no reason. This game is so good but the bugs are putting me off a bit. Waiting for a patch
Agreed, my game keeps closing on me every hour🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
hmmm "Major Bugs"... I haven't played this game yet. I'm definitely naming one of my characters that.
@@kingmerck1538 Same issue here. Its annoying cuz I play hardest dif so sometimes it takes me 20 mins to a hr to win a difficult fight and when I'm on the verge of victory it crashes.
Your companions aren't even smart enough to stay the hell away from fire.
I have to say, this is my first wasteland game, and I haven't been this hooked on an RPG in a looooooong time. The replay value is huge
Praise the game pass, wouldn’t have tried this game without it but now I’m looking forward to giving it a try.
Isn't worth anywhere close to $60 imo
I play a lot of games but I tend to bounce from game to game, playing multiple games at the same time. I have played nothing but this since it came out on Thursday.
Same here 😉
When you are studying for your September exams and haven't played shit for 3 weeks
Same I'm hooked rn
Almost done with the game and I really have to commended InExile for their writing.
Normally when I play an RPG I feel compelled to choose the morally good option no matter what because the "evil" and grey options are always too over the top.
However once things got a bit grey I ended up supporting a character that I would normally kill on the spot to the determent of another I really liked.
And it's also really amazing how used a loose plot thread from the last game to achieve this greyness.
Wait a minute. The game released on August 28 and you're already almost finished with it on September 1?
@@kyriosmalaka2312 it's not that long, Im 16 hours in. Granted I think the game is almost done.
There are also some situations where you can beat the game "early" like successfully killing the Patriarch, or if you kill Liberty in a random encounter.
@@The_Death_Owl Thanks for the feedback. I'll wait for the game to go on a discount before I buy it.
So, do I need to play Wasteland 1 and 2 before this?
@@thiagomda123 while you don't need to you won't really be compelled to make the same choices I personally made if you didn't know some of the characters.
I recommended playing wasteland 2 atleast until you get to LA and then playing 3.
You’ve probably already figured this out but when you arrest someone you actually get to choose where they’re detained. You can radio for the marshals to take them to a marshal facility or radio to ranger hq to detain them at your base. Sheriff Daisy isn’t to happy when you lock downtown Colorado criminals in the ranger hq. Such a great game
Loving the game after 20 hours. I’m impressed by the balance between depth and accessibility. There’s plenty of choice and consequence and a lot to learn when building your characters, but it also does a great job with tutorials and getting you into the swing of things quickly. As you mentioned, I think it does a better job at this than other recent CRPG’s like Divinity 2 or Pillars of Eternity. It’s just got a brisk pace to it that makes a huge RPG like this feel a little less intimidating.
Also, infinite inventory weight! What an amazing change compared to most other western RPG’s.
I do hope they add an option to toggle those, more hardcore elements on, separate from the difficulty setting.
I was really bummed out by the shared inventory pool, especially in combat. It just didn't feel right, in fact, it cheapened the experience for me.
Never played wasteland ever and I was surprised how easy the story is to get the grips with to be honest
Wasteland 3 made me fall in love with tactical based/turn-based combat!
It's seriously a pinnacle of RPGs with it's genius writing, adicting combat, build varriety, infinite choices (that actually have a huge impact), slapping soundtrack and phenomenal world building!
Can’t wait to pick it up. Thanks for the review Matty! Been here 5 years, still love your content 💪🏼💪🏼🔥
Ground control to Major Tom . . . Commencing hair ball, dry heave on.
Dude love this comment
This is the first time one of these CRPGs really hit home with me. The game manages to be deep and accessible at the same time, while consistently throwing interesting stories and choices at you non stop. It’s quickly becoming my favorite “Fallout” game of all time, and might even be one of my favorite 5 or 10 games I’ve ever played. Absolutely over the moon in love with this game.
Ghost_Troupe I haven’t gotten too far into the main story so I can’t speak to that (no spoilers please) but what I really love are all the little side stories scattered around offering the player interesting choices. I just love it. I’m enjoying all of the options that are presented to you in every aspect of the game. I’m feeling pretty damn good about it, but I am only 15-20 hours in so far.
Mmmm. Not sure if I agree with Ghost_Troupe. Maybe they just play way more games than me and have seen more ‘modern bs’ (not sure what that means). But anyway, even IF it is somehow predictable, your path there is far from it. I found my ending extremely satisfying and the choices along the way were complex and had unpredictable outcomes (especially ones relating to Valor).
@Adam White, if you haven’t played Wasteland 2 then definitely give it a try as well!
Goatkibble I’ve played 2, but not all the way through. I enjoyed it, but not nearly as much as 3. This game is making me consider revisiting it though for sure.
@@ajw5388 I had a couple of false starts before getting on with Wasteland 2, it's a slow burner that really starts picking up in the second half
Because of you I bought DOS2 and I love it - made its way to my top 3 fav games of all time. I know it's not related, I just wanted to thank you.
After I got Major Tomcat I went to the HQ and he ended up dying in a fight... Reverted the save and lost like half an hour and then released him as a companion because I was going to be a long dangerous road and I couldnt have his blood on my conscious.
How do u release him?
@@andrade9172 talk to him then dismiss
@@f0ul0u tnks
@Mcarthy Wasright hahaha he's probably the best character I've encountered so far honestly
tomcats hp scale with your level. he is basically my tank. He can tank a scorpitron no problem. and that is on 2nd highest difficulty
Excellent video! I'm loving this game so far too - only about 20 hours in, but there's literally nothing I don't like about it, other than some of those sporadic technical issues here and there (like one fight against 3 razorbacks somehow dropped my fps to ~20, when I run at a smooth 60 against 7+ Payasos - very weird). I could go on for hours on how much fun I'm having, but suffice it to say, the combat, story, characters, chracter-build systems, and just overall "feel" of this game are top notch - great balance of dark humor, and just...dark scenarios in general. That Randy Gett quest at 3:11 man...I was thoroughly uncomfortable at the end of that one, and I love this game for making me feel that way
I also like what you said about the combat - I find myself favoring strictly turn-based CRPG combat these days (e.g. Wasteland 3, Divinity OS 1 and 2) over traditional pause-resume combat (e.g. Pillars of Eternity, Baldur's Gate). I think it's just much easier to really flex that "strategic muscle" without being bogged down by random issues like being in bad position because the AI decided to path strangely, pausing just 1 second too late to re-issue orders, and now one of our characters did something suboptimal that might cost you the fight, etc. In Wasteland 3, if you're out of position, or whiff a move to the point of no return, it's more often than not because you made a poor and/or needlessly risky decision (which I've done on several occasions, costing me entire encounters at times).
Happens to me as well on all settings which is really odd
A couple days ago, I was playing WL3 singleplayer and I had a buddy of mine in party chat doing the Dorsey mission in the GotD, when I found a frozen ferret launcher. I thought that was the funniest weapon in existence, it's so absurd that I doubt that even borderlands wouldn't even try to pull that off. My friend and I proceeded to laugh with its absurdity for the next 15 minutes or so. Seriously awesome game.
A killer review, you nailed the essence of this outstanding RTS adventure man! Digging it since launch day, radically improved over "Wasteland 2"!
Its not a rts lol
i love how this game manage the text, it simple and user friendly while other rpg games throw at you a full page of text to your face...
Ive really enjoyed it so far! Unfortunately it struggles on my day one Xbone. I may just wait till I get my XSX to play it. We'll see if I make it that long...
I remember the first true gameplay trailer they showed, I believe it was last year?. Was really mixed in terms of reception because people saw it was too humor based and the tone was wrong. Nothing further from the truth, the game has super dark tones and mixed crazyness like Wasteland 2, it is Wasteland. So far it's been great for me.
Everything I loved about 2 is here, and they got rid of some of the obscurity when it comes to for instance skills and what those skills do. Like initiative dictating which character will come in which turn and how far could they move, but there was no way of knowing for sure before a battle. Was kind of annoying.
It's a fun game, and for anyone like me who never played the original Fallout 1 or 2 and always wanted to have something like that, this is it. As I've said Wasteland 2 was great, this one is the natural evolution.
This game is so good, I recently played through the remaster of the original and I though it was good, rough because of the mechanics, but very good. 2 was an epic journey, 3 is just addicting the writing and voice acting and everything about it is awesome, albeit there are some things they could patch and such which they probably will with enough feedback
8:40 Oh... poor Polly... I paid for the bird and... let's say... the next encounter was giving me a feather as loot ^^;
150 bucks and it died on its first combat. :D
The goat and the clone are the best I've seen so far.
Just finished the game, it was really awesome!
I'm loving this game, had to get through some fights on my last legs. Ran out of ammo and had to send my characters into a barefist melee.
Who knows how great their next game is gonna be with Microsoft’s backing?
They could make one of the best games ever
It depends on how hands-off Microsoft is going to be in their development phase. Are they going to go we need some of them more microtransactions boys.
@@VinderHD That's my worry. Avowed looked nice & it's still set in Eora, but I would've preferred a PoE style of game. I hope that Obsidions "partnering" with M$ doesn't mean the death of those kinds of titles, as typically has happened with other studios who've "merged" with these giants.
@@Harrison11106 Sadly it almost certainly does. Simply for the fact that PoE2 sold very poorly, something that still completely baffles me since I would put it right up there with BG2 and PS:T as one of the greatest CRPG's of all time.
Given the fact Pillars wasn't making money and Outer Worlds did so well, I wouldn't expect to see any more isometric games from them unfortunately.
But with Bethesda being essentially dead and buried at this point, at least someone will be making some decent games along those lines. Small consolation but hey, it's something...
Harrison11106 it definitely won’t, the studios have full creative control, so they let them create whatever game they want.
The game's amazing it's my first time playing this type of game I like how when you go to fight the enemy or that are you get attacked by the enemy they all attack you know one after another and not have to like wait
That's not the worst bug the worst one is the when the screen turns black or you're stuck in a shop menu and can't exit and you got to like exit the game
Had to play on easy cuz I suck at these type of games this game was still kick your ass even on easy so there's some challenge still even on easy surprisingly enough
But that's not a bug. Turns are team based, not character based. So every single enemy will attack you one after another, just like you'll attack them one after another.
8 enemies? 8 attacks one after another.
As someone old enough to have played Wasteland 1 when it first came out, I'm not at all surprised.
I have this on PC (don't know if that makes a difference) but I've played for about 21 hours so far and haven't had any game breaking bugs yet. Just a few camera glitches here and there. My advice for someone who wants this but is scared of the bugs, buy it anyways. The few bugs in the game are worth the fun you have with it. Plus there's a good chance the devs will fix most of them in the next patch anyways.
Fallout 4 feels like a linear game compared to wasteland 3
I only found 3 sidequests organically in the world. I had to google to even find the beginning point of the other side quests. And there were only 2 cities, felt not lived and no fun quest lines.
@@Mrdevs96 in fallout lmao? The game has like a infinite quests idk how you couldn't find any. Most of them arent very good but they're there
@@sparkyspinz9897 there are about 12 handwritten sidequests with named NPCs and some minimal branching options. The rest are all radiant AI quests like the infinite ones from Skyrim
yeah in F4 no choice rly matters.
This and fallout 76 seem worth it.
I have experienced a few bugs, one that is making me replay a battle and one I had to look up what was happening, but so far it's been more stable than any recent Fallout game was at launch.
In my experience it has crashed more than 76 has so far
Dude same. Haven't played anything else since it dropped.
Yes, I’m about 15 hours in right now and LOVING THE S&!T out of this game! Maybe a Top 5 CRPG of the last 20 years?!
Amazing game and definitely my GOTY if Cyberpunk is delayed, that being said it's the buggiest game I've played in years I've crashed over 10 times with numerous different issues
I didn't play it at launch but the bugs not even close to what cyberpunk did. Got to congratulate inxile, they pretty much topped the most hyped game of 2020.
My load times on PS5 are like 10 seconds but when I’m coop it’s like 60-90 secs when it works
Keep in mind that this and The Outer Worlds are both Microsoft properties now (especially when you hear "xbox has no games"). Granted MS releases will be on PC as well, but that just gives me an opportunity to play twice (double the achievements) since they're free with gamepass.
Outer Worlds and Wasteland 3 are both on PS4 so Xbox still has barely any unique games
@@unlimitedpower5027 They're both on PS4 because they were already in development and announced for PS4. Avowed will not be on PS4, nor will any future games from Obsidian and inXile.
Love stories where my choices have a major impact, will get to this and divinity original sins series soon…
Loving this game. Makes me want to try Divinity.
The load screens are the only negative I can find about this in single player. The visual and UI bugs aren't game breaking, just odd. I'm playing the Lawman, I've arrested everyone I can.
one of the few games i bought at a launch and actually not disappoint with it - in fact, this might be the game I enjoy the most this year
The best new RPGs are the isometric ones. DOS2, Wasteland 3, Disco Elysium, and especially Pillars of Eternity are all some of the best RPGs I have ever played. Although Bethesda and BioWare have kind of moved away from the genre, we still have great developers willing to create games in this "niche" genre.
Man, I really have to try wasteland 3 and Disco Elysium. I'm just finishing DOS2 and it's a masterpiece.
Playing through this game now with a buddy and we just got to the first big twist and we're so hooked! We love this so much!
If this was on the switch id pick it up
it would be cool if mentioned somewhere in the description of title of your videos if there's any spoilers in the video or not
I'm not really a fan of CRPGs. Or haven't played many. But this is so easy to get into.
I've put so many hours into this game so far. And I barely just got to Denver.
I love this game so much.
I hope that their next game is a 1st person RPG. And they keep it just as complex.
I hope that if they make a first person game it is a different IP or a spin-off. I would play the heck out of it! But I wouldn’t want them to stop making Wasteland as a turn based RPG. We can have both can’t we? :D
I ordered Wasteland 3 for the PS4 and I also ordered another game Car Mechanic Simulator. I figured with me being a mechanic I would enjoy it. The CMS came in a couple days before wasteland 3 did and I'm now so hooked on Car Mechanic Simulater, it will be a while before I get to Wasteland 3
Your camera is the best I’ve seen on RUclips... what brand do you use? It’s amazingly crystal clear.
One Tip: In Wasteland 3 you can have Custom Avatar Pictures for your Rangers.
It works the same as for Wasteland 2.
Look for the folder were your savegame Folder is in:
...\Documents\my games\Wasteland3
There create a Folder named: Custom Portraits
In it you can post the Images that should become your new Avatars, BUT they not should be bigger then: 256x256
Ingame, go into the Character creation Menu and look for the Avatar Pictures. Normaly there are 3 Points under the Pictures for three Sides. This will expand, so there will be more to see and use.
Have Fun creating your own custom Crew ;-)
(If you still have your Wasteland2 Custom Avatar Folder, copy / paste it over. It should work just Fine.)
Awesome, thanks!! I knew you could have custom avatars but wasn’t sure if you could use the same ones from W2. Now all we need is a save editor >.>
When Ramen Noodles are a lost delicacy you need to recover, you know you're playing an awesome post-apocalyptic game.
Great to see what theyve improved 6 months later...loading screens have been shortened it seems, as these often end before I expect them to. This is only my second isometric style RPG, first being Disco Elysium, and I am enjoying myself thoroughly....to me, its like Disco storyline/gameplay with FF Tactics style combat. Delightful.
I actually just did a replay through Wasteland 2 directors cut last month to satisfy my old fallout tactics nostalgia. I never even expected W3 to come out. I'm very happy but will wait a bit to get it I think cause I'm a bit behind and started Batman Archam Knight and Control this week.
I'm not very far because I've been mainly running sidequests, and raising the money for my next objective but I'm loving this. Wasteland 1 was my second RPG and while I like most of the Fallout games I've played (Basically everything except for 76 which I have no interest in) I've always felt the Wasteland series deserves more love, and hopefully this game will lead to that coming.
What's funny is we went opposite with our Animal Whisperer concept. Yours is a brawler while mine is the team sniper.
I hear a lot of people praising the turn system in the game, yet it is the thing I like the least about the game. As an Old School D&D player, I much prefer the semi-random Initiative System we had in Wasteland 2. I hope they consider it as a game option in a future update. The inventory management system is a massive improvement on its predecessor, though.
Yes. And yes! I also like how they streamlined the skills. No more first aid AND doctor.
Finally getting around to playing this about 30 hours in. a couple restarts and replay throughs and now in really rolling with my current setup. I just cleared out the Warrens so hyped. Tons of shit left to do!
Never played this series always wanted too since I love the Fallouts I'm going into this blind as I'm hearing really good thing's about it and hankering for a CRPG
Im loving it, thank God for gamepass
i bought this game because i loved wasteland 2. I'm also a huge fallout fan. So this really scratched that itch that fallout 76 just couldn't achieve. I'm not even 15 hours in and I can tell this is gonna be a great expierence.
How'd you like it?
@@promane557 it was great. The ending was a little lackluster imo, but the rest of the game was fun as hell.
I'd give it a solid 8/10
I really want this game. But it’s one of those games where I’ll just wait for it to be on sale
Its free on gamepass
KageHavok I have PlayStation
I’d definitely encourage you to get it and if you wait for a sale it will likely have had some bugs ironed out. Win!
@@cloudsweater get a cheap Xbox one on OfferUp
Tbh, I couldn't play it anymore after about 10-15 hours through Game Pass on XBONE. I don't know what happened, I don't know what changed my mind, but there was a moment where I just thought 'I'm done', removed it from my library, and haven't felt a single compulsion to return. I mean, I played 300 hours of Fallout 4 at launch in '15 (and am currently slogging through Cyberpunk, willingly), but Wasteland 3 didn't last me 5% of that. I'm a big fan of Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition, so a video-gamey RPG is in my wheelhouse, and I enjoyed Fallout, so the genre works for me. But something clicked or didn't click with this for me. I don't know.
Did it seem monotonous at all like Wasteland 2? I, too, dumped countless hours in Fallout 4. Binged on it for a year, then Cyberpunk 2077 came out and now Im binging on that. Afraid Wasteland 3 might feel like a chore similar to 2.
@@twobob_lee it's hard to say. The simplest answer is that I'm not very good at isometric CRPGs. I tried playing Fallout 1, and it didn't resonate with me. I only have a handful of hours in Divinity: Original Sin. Never even touched Baldur's Gate or Neverwinter Nights series.
I definitely felt like I was putting in more effort for less gain when it came to the characters abilities. Trying to cover for every situation burned me out.
Glad I got the game recently. The loadscreens are but a few seconds. The "problem" was with the DLCs because I got the GOTY or whatever and started steeltown without knowing it was a DLC. Not that it had any negative effect other than the loot being lower level, but I didnt know that so whatever. Overall a great game I will be playing for a very long time.
The music, my god the soundtrack is top 10 modern VG soundtracks ever. I found myself wanting it on CD, thats when you know the music is good when you want to listen to it outside the game
I wish the Co-op wasn't absolutely broken, made it 15 hours with a friend on steam and the entire quest line reset, like we still had our gear and our levels, but we went back to ranger HQ and The Patriarch is there with a Dorsey tied up and everything, old radio messages the whole nine yards, def waiting on a patch before we continue.
Not usually a fan of this style of rpg, but matty has me thinking about it
since I've never really played any CRPGs my first thoughts while playing this game were "I really wish they had the budget to make this a modern style rpg" but as I played I started to really love this game for what it was and it made me want to play more like it. you werent lying when you said this was a great first entry for newcomers to this style of game. I will definitely be going back to try pillars of eternity again after finishing this and cyberpunk then probably gonna try divinity for the first time.
The replay ability of this game is amazing. I’m up to the 3rd child. So I’m close to finishing. But I’m already excited to be a complete jerk in my 2nd playthrough.
It just came to me, this kind of 'level gated main quests', where it forces you to play side quests that are actually on par with main quests in terms of quality, is probably what would make modern Assassin's Creed games less mediocre.
Agreed! In terms of CRPGs of this style, I needed to learn a bit more, and on that front I'd have to say this is my favorite thus far, as its a challenge but not one that makes me rage quit (like W2). I'm actually sticking to it; I'm a ways into it and I *still* can't put this down, which shocks me, 'cuz I never seem to finish CRPGs of this sort, not even Wasteland 2 (the water level going down fast on the world map frustrated me to the point of putting it aside). I like this much better ... even better than Divinity Original Sin 2.
I purchased this for Christmas this year! I am super excited 😊
Just picked this up a few days ago and noticed a few bugs that you mentioned still In the game, wall humping, random noise keeps happening like I've uncovered a secret booby trap or dig spot, on xbox the combat system is janky (especially the stealth attacks, party management, sometimes trying to select an enemy to attack doesn't work properly) switching to the map screen causes my tv to flicker purple for 1 second and then it shows the map and modifying a weapon or armour doesn't bring up the menu and you have to reselect the option. It's a shame because I really enjoy this game, never tried wasteland before and I'm glad I decided to play it just wish the devs had patched some of these bugs as they are really annoying.
Matty, I appreciate your honesty, thanks for your hard work.
You know what's agonizing the loading screens, my top tier computer still takes 15-30 seconds they need to optimize this shit
Story dlc has been confirmed to be made once they are done working on bug fixing and performance which i am VERY exited for
I was loving the game co-op when the technical issues made me lose six hours of progress haven't touched it since but the game was so perfect.
Save the your energy weapons and energy ammo for giant robot scorpion fights. If your kill the ones walking around the world map you can get high level or rare weapons......AND A TON OF SCRAP!! GET YOUR BARTER UP!! P.S Having high lock pick will come in handy for getting good loot. If your lockpick and barter is high you will have the best gear and a lot of cash.
On pc, install to an SSD. My load times average right at 15 seconds. Not bad at all. Loving the game so far. I am probably 25 hours in so far. Only one glitch when I tried to use the "Hard Ass" dialogue choice before a certain fight. It would screw up the combat every time. I reloaded and did it without that particular line of dialogue and it went smoothly as usual.
Wasteland 1 crawled so Wasteland 2 could run so Wasteland 3 could dropkick Fallout 76
Can't wait for Wasteland 4 to do a Zagief's Flying Power Bomb on all Bethesda, with Obsidian helping with the move, for ruining the Fallout franchise.
@@BC-iv2wi Because Wasteland was the original Fallout and seeing Bethesda abuse the franchise with an abomination like 76 whole InXile is improving the Wasteland series and making it better than ever with the third installment
@@infinityhand6569
Fallout was technically about to be an mmo before BGS got the rights, and I enjoyed F3, FNV, F4, and even F76 to a lesser extent.
@@BC-iv2wi He just did. Any games that use the words post nuclear and RPG to sell them are fair game as long as we stick to those criteria in criticism. Obviously both games have differences but Wasteland 3 just spanked Bethesda with a supersledge that made the recent Beth dlc the shallow children's swimming pool that it is in terms of choice and consequences. The best we can say for FO76 is at least it now has some. And if you like endless grind you can always date on tinder.
Just fired up a second play through and the load times are so much better. From around a minute to now between 6-8 seconds
5:30 Single player has many crashes as well. I had one crash every hour for about 4 hours at one point. hopefully updates account for this.
The game looks great, and I'm thinking of putting it into my play queue. The only thing that has me concerned from reading comments is the seemingly short length of the game. I want more than a handful of days of playtime.
If you don't rush and explore,do side quests, trail off the beaten path,you will find yourself playing longer
It's awesome when it's not crashing. Well made . Hard to stop playing it.
I'm loving every second.
Wow this Fallout 76 Wastelanders update is amazing!!! It’s actually worth playing now guys!
Lol
CommanderJaneShepard Todd and the gang have really out done themselves. This is probably the best Fallout since New Vegas.
@@WarNvrChanges yeah the best lol
Todd is that you?
Bryan Fargo is also a character in the game. The boss of little Vegas...
I’ve never been into games like Xcom and other turn based games aside from South Park but this game has me hooked. I never saw this game coming and I really enjoy the humor and dark moments. I wish the marketing had been bigger because I think a lot of other people will end up sleeping on this game as well.
How's it stack up to a game like Divinity Original Sin 2?
Start playing it on the Xbox one X and the loading screens were so bad that I just put it up until the new one came out and just now remembered it three years later here we go
I'll play this game eventually but I've played a number of tactical games lately and need a break. If it was fantasy based I'd be all over it.
Cohh carnage is like you when it comes to fallout and he spent 12 hours in the first area alone, before moving on to the world map and he is loveing it...
Quote: the "fallout" game we have been waiting for!!!
Having played the game for about 10hrs, here are some things I wish it had.
Custom grouping system like that of Divinity Original Sin. Right now the only options are All in Group, or No One in Group, and it's a pain in the ass to move each character to their spots individually, which also makes it feel too...game-y?
A better Overwatch/Ambush system.
I really don't like the standard option of *shoot the first thing that enters your range.* I want to be able to tell the game to ONLY shoot when the enemy, or enemies I specify, attacks within/leaves/enters an area that I choose within my weapon's range.
Whether it be a special ability, or always available as part of the action, I just want the option, especially when the game has group combat initiative set by default.
The option for separate inventory for each character.
I actually enjoy the micro management on these slower paced games, really adds to the immersion.
The shared ammo pool in particular feels cheap, and i feel it robs me of great roleplay moments such is those where character A, who is decked out in high end gear, runs out of ammo, and character B, who has mostly invested in utility and social skills, goes out and fetches them some from the dead bodies out in the open, just barely making it back to character A with enough AP to give them the ammo thanks to their high speed.
I really expected this to be the RPG that goes all out with that, but sadly it opts for the easy route in some parts.
I DO, however, like the grouped enemy looting after an encounter.
Again, all I want are options.
Wasteland 2 had seperate character inventory and you had to spend massive amounts of time micromanaging by swapping stuff between characters due to weight restrictions and running off to the shops every 10 minutes because all 7 squad members were 1kg away from simply not being able to move anymore. I think I spent equal amounts of time on inventory management as I did on actual gameplay so I can why they made this change in Wasteland 3.
You play on console?

Yes, Xbox, through the game pass.
It was great to try it, and I'll most likely keep playing it more, but I doubt I'll end up buying it when it's removed from the pass. It just doesn't have what I'm looking for in it's combat... at least not yet.
Maybe there ARE some special abilities that are more tactical alternatives to the Ambush option, just haven't come across any. Didn't see any on the perk list... But I mean, neither was shooting piercing eye lasers from a cybernetic eye, so fingers crossed.
You can select a subset of characters on PC. Ctrl click each character icon in lower left. Or click one and shift click to select a few.
I've been having quite a fun time playing it, I thought the long loading times were due to my potato (which the game keeps insisting it is below minimum specs, even though I run it at medium/40-ish FPS), the only complain I have is during conversations. You have to constantly click, space bar or enter to move forward, instead of letting it flow naturally, stopping only during choices (as is in every RPG).
The conversation boxes seem too clanky, I feel they could be streamlined (I don't know if that was an aesthetic type chosen to be more pleasing on console).
{phenomenal game, all around} Will buy the director's cut or whatever Interplay releases in the vein of Wasteland 2 Director's Cut, till ten I'm thrilled and impressed at the decision to have this on GamePass.
Fryan brygo was in wasteland one. His daughter was a ranger in wasteland 2.
fantastic video matthew
This is exactly what I thought when I started the game. Problem is it falls short right after denver.
It felt super rush from that point on. Aspen and Yuma were both very disappointing.
I'm really enjoying this game, when isn't crashing on me. PS4 Pro and i've had at least 10 crashes in the last two days. I've also had a few strange bugs where the UI disappeared and none of the buttons worked so i had to close app. It sucks cause i'm really loving it a lot, but the second time it crashed after a long boss battle i had to shut it off for a bit. Luckily i'm almost done with Persona 5 Royal so i can play that until some more patch fixes come out.
I just couldn't get into wasteland, I like it but never finished any of them.
I'm giving them a chance again starting with 2
Im hoping the next game will be huge because honestly they can build some good worlds and the freedom you get with Characters I do like a lot more
Safe to say, InXile and Obsidian were the best acquisitions Xbox has ever made
It gets your pickle tickled a little for Wasteland 3.
I'm usually not a big fan of cRPG's but Wasteland 3 is an exception. This game has been incredible so far. Crusader Kings is just going to have to wait!
Great review thank you! I'm thinking of getting this game at some point!
