When the fuck does the review embargo lift??

When the fuck does the review embargo lift??
Also, am I the only who cares about this game? Out in two days and I've only seen one thread in the past week.

>Also, am I the only who cares about this game?

No but we're few and far between. The fantasy crpgs get more love than sci-fi, god knows why.

I'm hype, managed to avoid just about everything to do with the game and I can't wait. I have a week off for unrelated things, so I'll be enjoying this the whole time.

Yeah man, I can understand why some people were critical of aspects of W2, but I really enjoyed the writing and atmosphere all the way through, had a decent ost as well.
I know nothing about 3 either, but cautiously optimistic at the very least.

W2 wasn't perfect, but honestly what game is? It had enough gameplay wise to keep me entertained and as you say the rest of it all came together nicely.

Only part I hated was those suicide cultists in the mountains who would blow themselves up if you did something wrong cool idea, but what a shit level.

My only worry for 3 is that it will be dumbed down or have actual rpg elements taken out like a lot of games these days. I haven't seen any beta footage or anything so can't confirm, but as long as they have the normal rpg stuff in there with good writing I think this will be great.

Why the fuck is it 54 quid for the basic version? Didn't that motherfucker from black isles mock the cancer that mainstream publishers do now?

not interested in dumbed down console shit. Even paid shills admitted it's dumbed down from the preview event a couple of weeks ago.

I got vacation next week so ill play this cause of gamepass.

W2 was great but I got filtered when you made it to Cali. I couldn't even touch those robot enemies, guess I built wrong. Can't wait for 3. It's going to be great.

this. cut that shit in half and interest will be substantially higher

I think I may have savescummed that part potentially, where you have to try and make peace between some brotherhood or something?
But yeah, the combat was a bit clunky but perfectly functional and had some decent weapon variety as I recall.
Compared to the shitshow that was Numenera, W2 felt like a completely different dev.
Fingers crossed it's not dumbed down, not really sure what they could dumb down unless they go for combat like Numenera...

Tbf if you're not hyped, wait for the first sale.
I remember having no interest in 2 pre-release and just after it came out.
Pretty sure it had about a 50% off sale just over a month after release.

I'd care more if the price was halved

Releasing for console is their priority, first red flag.

Fans of the genre will love it, old style turn based combat is always nice.

faggot

I am hyped and was fully prepared to buy at "full price" (29.99-39.99) for the "full game" but instead they're doing this bullshit so it's DAY ONE PIRATE for me.

anyone knows if the physical release has the steam key?

Isn't every game released at this price nowadays?

not indie games, especially when it's a simple turn based isometric

I hope it’s less boring than 2, there was a good foundation but it was generally dull

Do we know anything about the rpg system yet?
Will assault rifles just dominate everything again?

This isn't an indie game though?

Iso turn based games aren't any less a game than $60 COD

One I’ve been following for awhile is Stellar Tactics. It’s pretty similar to wasteland 2 but in space with ship battles and boarding. Unfortunately it’s not done and I bought it in early access years ago. It’s still updated but it’s just really slow

Well, I guess not... but it's Fargo doing his thing. Let's say he's a big comfy indie.

back in my fucking day crpgs weren't viewed as budget titles, and I don't think this one is, so get fucked

Why did they reduce the number of custom rangers to 2?

They did WHAT?

is this a thing people are going to moan about

Well yeah, it was super fun to make the entire custom party

gamepass

Fuck off. 39.99 is hardly "budget title". I am a boomer, I backed wasteland 2 at the very first whiff of it, but I'm not paying this jewish price.

stop

This is a massive fucking downgrade from the previous game

jesus christ. and I suppose if they designed a game where you make a party of 80 you would consider that an upgrade

Is the combat at least better? My biggest qualm with wasteland 2 was how character building worked and what you could do in combat - I found it quite boring and was hoping for something similar to fallout 2.

??? but it was awesome, you have the entire control of your squad build

having every skill in the game is not awesome

You joke, but Warhammer Chaos Gate allowed you to essentially do this within certain limitations. It was a good game.

Bros, give me a rundown on the events of W2.

Farthest I've got was beyond the radiation cloud and then I got filtered by robits pretty quickly.

How does it end and whats the premise for snowy locale?

not relevant

Imagine actually defending having less customization
Fuck off schizoid
