All of the opinions and insights here are subject to that version. This game was reviewed based on Xbox One review code, using an Xbox One console. Aside from the loading times you’re sure to have a great time like I did. Add some realism to the game and put yourself in the game, then go off and make your own decisions as you see fit. Wasteland 3 is overall a great tactical game to play. Fast travelling was often a pain because loading time would take up to 3 minutes. ![]() Loading screens also were longer than they should be. The custom characters have voice lines that go with them but you also rarely will hear them say anything. The music however is barely noticeable in the game. They fit the whole post-apocalyptic aesthetic. From the ravenous cult leaders and their followers to the strict and determined patriarch leaders and their crew.įor a tactical RPG the graphics are pretty solid. ![]() It’s all fun and engaging but just takes some time to get used to.Īll the characters in the game are unique, have great personalities and voice acting to go along with it. There’s just so many options to choose from and one of those options is a “yellow snowball”. The consumables and throwables are where the combat shines the most. They can be used up by moving and shooting so you have to be mindful. Depending on your skills action points are something you need to tactically plan out. Not saying it’s difficult necessarily, there’s just certain things you need to keep an eye out for, such as action points. Gameplay wise the combat will take some getting used to. Some are more drastic than others but like I said, completely optional. An optional way to play is to give your characters traits which come with a downside along with a positive effect. That’s why it’s best to have a team with a great variety of skill sets. How about a tough beefy brawler that can be a tank for your team? Their social skills don’t play too much of a role on the battlefield but once the smoke clears those social skills are going to become critical when it comes to exploration and decision making. If you want them to be a huge nerd that can hack robots and use sci-fi guns, go for it. While preset characters can only improve their current stats further, your created characters are fully customizable to how you see fit. All characters in the game have a unique set of combat skills and social skills. It’s best to look at their skills before you just go adding people though. The maximum number of created characters you can have on your team is 4, while the other two slots are saved for characters you may encounter in the story if you want to recruit them onto your team. Having your most powerful gear used against you isn’t all that great.Ĭharacter creation is an element in the game which again for a tactical RPG I was not familiar with. Unlike me, hopefully you’ll be prepared if that ever occurs to you. I was really surprised when I saw how many decisions you’ll be constantly making in the game – some that can even turn members of your party against you. In most scenarios you’ll find yourself pausing the game, wondering if you made the right choice. You can either be a complete scumbag or a good Samaritan, the choice is entirely yours. ![]() The game starts off after finishing the tutorial in the care of a patriarch who sends out to fetch his kids “alive” due to them trying to overthrow their father.įrom then on every decision is yours to make and that’s what’s so great about the game you play it exactly how you want, you run your group however you please. If you couldn’t guess from the name, Wasteland 3 is set in a post apocalyptic world where you control a squadron doing whatever you need to do in order to survive the wasteland of Colorado. After the first 30 minutes of playtime I could see why this game was hyped up. Instead I received an innovative game where your decisions actually affect the way you play. Coming from somebody who has never played a previous Wasteland title I was expecting a serious tactical RPG. Wasteland 3 was everything I didn’t expect. ![]()
