Wasteland 2 Is Selling Very Well, What A Shocker

By -
Making the rounds at the moment is the fact that Wasteland 2 is selling very well. Well that's a shocker isn't it!

Reports from our caster Samsai are that it's very good and I think he has a bit of an addiction to it brewing.

Thanks to our friends at IGN we have learnt that in the first four days of exiting early access Wasteland 2 earnt a tidy $1.5 million! That's amazing considering they also gathered nearly $3 million from their Kickstarter and no doubt made a fair bit during the early access days too.

Wasteland 2 is a sequel to the amazingly popular 1988 RPG Wasteland and the post-apocalyptic predecessor to the Fallout Series. It looks good and you should check out Samsai's extensive post and video on Wasteland 2 right here on GOL, or just see the video below:

This was the very first game I Kickstarted, and it's wonderful to finally have the release version. It ran just dandy on my desktop, whose motherboard just died. That's another story.

BUT--I played for an hour or two. This is perhaps the game that Fallout 3 should have been, and it's true to the feeling of the grandfather of post-apocalyptic computer games, the first Wasteland. It's heavy on spoken and printed dialog, and it is decidedly turn-based in combat. The world is big, with locations that you enter sizeable themselves. Each one, BTW, has a big glowing portal as an exit, which made me smile. This project made news when it committed to using Unity as a development engine, insuring that Linux donors could get the program.

This is a BFG, (in which the G stands for Game), and is well worth the $30 price; it will reward gamers with quite a few hours of replayable, absorbing ,strategic adventuring. Now, I'm jut waiting for Pillars of Eternity, which was the second game I Kickstarted, and Torment:Tides of Numenara. Some time next year, I expect. Wasteland 2 (along with, shall I say, additional AAA games in my Steam library) will keep me busy until the fantasy RPGs of my desire appear;).

Well, it sort of runs but you'll run into many graphical glitches and for me that made it unplayable. They aren't that interested in fixing the game for that hardware either, so you'd better avoid for now.
