Wasteland Thread

Postby Shadowwell » Fri Oct 14, 2016 3:17 pm

Hello Denizens of NationStates, many of you are probably familiar with the Fallout Series, but before that there was Wasteland. Fallout actually came about because Interplay was unable to get their hands on the company that made Wasteland. Wasteland 2 was described by users as "the Fallout 3 we always deserved but never got." Wasteland 3 will soon be made into a game and has garnered almost 3 million most of which came in the first 3 days of the fundraising thing.

Though, i am not fully aware whether anyone here one NS plays Wasteland, but this thread has been made for the purpose of discussing and talking about it.

I' have Wasteland 2, it's an amazing game. I've played the original Fallout and Wasteland 2 is a much more polished and in-depth game — though that's not a big surprise, given that the former is 20 years old.

The thing about Wasteland that i like, is your actions actully affect the world around you, not just additional dialogue or karma, but actually effects the world.

It's just kinda sad that Fallout 3, New Vegas, and Fallout 4 were kind of dumbed down, compared to what was.
(Oh yeah, I've played all Fallout games, not inc luding the godawful Brotherhood of Steel game on the PS)
Okay so apparently these days it's hot and happening to show your gender.
I am MALE. WTF is cis? I am MALE. I like to belch and laugh at fart jokes.

Oh, by the way: gender and sex are the same thing. They are part of a binary system.
Transgenderism is not supported by scientific evidence.

The greatest evils of our day: islamism, liberalism, George Soros

How can you accuse me of evil? Though these deeds be unsavory, no one will argue: good shall follow from them.


The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing

I grew up playing older RPGS like Balders Gate, the first two fallouts and of course wasteland 1. Man you could break wasteland 1 easily with the double loot bag glitch getting you the unobtainable Red Rider Super and a couple of Overpowered armors. Though the double loot bag glitch would rarely happen unless you were actively trying to get it.

I have it on ps4 which means annoying ass controls, but I've sort of gotten used to it :P

I'm planning on doing a "Supreme Jerk" play-through, you do half damage and take double.

I'm going to be abusing the quirk that gives you +1 on all abilities on equal levels and -1 on odd levels. You can actually skip a level up until it's even.
