    It's a solid RPG which builds well on the previous Wasteland releases and the genre overall.
    Though, as a 39 y.o. fan of Fallout 1 and 2, I'll skip it simply because it seems to be targeted at teenagers.

Some idiotic chatter on the radio etc. I dunno, all this just adds to the feeling of linearity. The game drags you through this silly 10-y.o. targeted stuff... I guess they need it for sales, and since the console version will probably sell more copies than the PC one. Well, good luck.    … Expand

    My first wasteland game and I'm happy to say I'm enjoying myself. I dont feel left behind having not played the first two games, and I enjoy the classic rpg style and gameplay. I'm playing on gamepass, but I definitely could see myself purchasing this or dlc for this title.

The RPG elements, choices and consequences, dark humor and setting FEEL like the original Fallout games, and the combat has changed from Wasteland 2's initiative based system to something more like the modern XCOM games, which I think feels a lot more fun in practice. My only real complaint about the game so far is the loooong loading times even on a PC with an M.2 SSD, Ryzen 5 3600 and 16gb DDR4-3200 RAM. I also kinda wish character models didn't suddenly lose their hair/go bald when you put hats on them, maybe that is something that can get improved on with a patch or mods. Fantastic game though.… Expand

    I just get tremendous pleasure from the game. It is interesting to read all the dialogues, lore of the game. The combat mechanics are great. The interface is convenient. Cool music and sounds. Of course, I would like to have faster level loadings, because even on the SSD they are quite long and have fixed several bugs. Otherwise, I am very happy with the game.

Its pretty rough around the edges with some bugs and performance issues but it has really interesting characters, well done voice acting and its an absolute joy to explore the world map and find side quests and build your characters up.

    It’s a brilliant post-apo turn-based game. I have already 40 hours on it & can't get enough of it. TWO best games ever are: Fallout & XCOM and this is crossbreed of them. What more can you ask for? :)
    Just one imperfection: loading screens (Jesus Crist! or maybe Holy President Reag..! is more apt :)

    Played it thanks to having it on MS GamePass. Biggest downside for the game is that it will be inevitably compared to Dinivity Original Sin 1 and 2. And once you do you'll have to accept it doesn't really compete.

The story beyond the combat feels a bit thin though. The world feels empty and the driving around just ends up being tedious and pointless. It's also very obvious that several quests have limited angles to approach them. While there's some choices you can make it's not that you feel like you are really supposed to play "your way".

    Not sure about replay value either, I definitely didn't feel like it immediately after nor after a few weeks went by. Might try it eventually just to see how far off story you can go.    … Expand

This is mainly down to the fantastic voice work, of which there's a ridiculous amount, absolutely everything is voiced and voiced well. The story is also interesting and engaging, and the missions are enjoyable, even side quests are worth doing for upgrades and just fun interactions, you never know who you're going to meet along the way. I can't name many games where you can pay to have sex with a goat, but you can in Wasteland 3.

    Gameplay-wise it's solid, nothing innovative but it does the basics well. Switching to team-based turns was a good idea, the combat plays out much smoother this way. The game also has a ton of content, you're looking at 60+ hours at least, and there's no way you'll see everything in one playthrough.

    Where the game really falls down is performance, stability and lack of polish, the game is riddled with bugs. I would describe it as a great game that's not in a great state, it needed to be delayed at least 3 months IMO. The loading times are also very long, probably the longest I can remember in recent memory, and they're frequent. The frame rate is generally OK whilst travelling the world but it really chugs in combat as the Unity engine just can't cope. There are also several bugs relating to performance, for example, every time you hit shift to highlight objects the game freezes and haemorrhages frame rate, these aren't problems unique to myself, everyone is suffering from them regardless of hardware. Co-op is another big issue, there are countless bugs and crashes related to this mode, so if you want to play with a friend you may wish to wait for a few patches. My advice, in general, would be to wait, this is a game that will only get better with time and I really do feel it's worth waiting for.    … Expand

    But... For me... it has to compete against the best game ever made in Divinity Original Sin 2 which is a very difficult proposition.

    Wasteland 3 is a very enjoyable game but I’m comparing it to the greatest of all time so of course I’m going to be disappointed on occasion. Particularly during combat. There isn’t the variety of skills, and approaches to combat that makes DOS2 so brilliant.

    However, there are moments of sheer brilliance in this and it is a must play.    … Expand

    Now the complaints i have:
    -Like others have said the loading times at the moment are unacceptable for 2020. No matter if you have super duper SSD every time you go to a different (map) the game loads for a 1minute minimum.And this wouldnt be that big deal if there wasnt so many map transitions and there is a lot of them. Also same load time every time you have to load a game. If they can somehow fix this issue i could easily give this game 9/10 maybe even a 10/10 who knows.
    -The inventory/skill UI isnt very good but not game breaking.

    Hopefully InXile will iron out the loading times and the bugs.    … Expand

    The game does suffer from some launch performance issues, some fights become a stuttering mess and the graphics aren't going to knock your socks off any time soon, some textures are blurry and load times are atrocious, but honestly this is one of those games where the gameplay is that good, I can actually forgive the game for not being perfectly optimised, and from what I have read Inxile are working hard on getting this game patched to run better.

К чему я привык в играх от obsidian. Ты видишь в диалоге доступный вариант с циферкой твоего навыка и уже заранее знаешь, что этот вариант максимально верный и прибыльный для тебя. В Вейстленд 3 это так не работает!
    Сюжет увлекает и ставит игрока перед нелегким выбором. Несмотря на шутливый и трешевый стиль повествования, игра отправляет тебя в довольно жуткое приключение , где игроку нужно принимать не простые решения, в которых вы неоднократно будите сомневаться по ходу повествования.
    Поставил 10 баллов, но к сожалению в игре много багов и объективно ,в текущем состоянии, это должна была быть 8. За все прохождение игра ни разу не вылетала и все эти баги из разряда - раздражающие. Диалоги с патриархом лагают, Бои подвисают во время хода противника, пару раз слетали статы до начальных у основных персонажей ( с которыми стартуем) и т.д.
    Самый критичный - загрузки вплоть до минуты на ССД и в целом не слабом ПК. К примеру в Колорадо-спрингс , что бы добежать от базы рейнджеров до дворца Патриарха, вам нужно пройти 3 загрузочных экрана. Тем не менее я здорово провел время с этой игрой.
    Итог - Подождите пару крупных патчей и бегом играть. Если вам нравился Fallout 1-2 , то Wasteland 3 это то почему вы так скучали. По отличной рпг, с большим количеством диалогов и вариативностью . По чувству втянутости в игровой мир и возможностью на этот игровой мир влиять. И по роботам коммунистам конечно же.    … Expand

That being said, the combat and builds you can put together are a TON of fun and lend itself to quite a bit of replayability, especially being able to side with different factions in the vein of the fallout franchise. The combat feels good, kind of like X-Com, and the weapon variety is cool too, somewhat reminiscent of borderlands for me. So yeah for me this was like Fallout, Xcom and Borderlands in one. As for the cons; there are definitely bugs and clunkiness that is pretty annoying at times, as well as the load screens can be pretty bad. The game continues to receive updates, so these issues should be mitigated in future builds.… Expand

    It's a very good game with some minor annoyances which detract from what is otherwise a great experience. Great writing masks a fairly clichéd plot. But the UI and inventory management is frankly a bit of a mess. This doesn't ruin it by any stretch. But it could do with some TLC.

It still has some improvements and I was debating between 8 or 9 but I gave it 9 because I would definately buy wasteland 4 if they do it. I just enjoying playing this game.

Quizás la IA, especialmente la de pets y companions, debería haber sido mejorada algo.

    Gráficamente el juego está bastante bien, pero no llega a ser uno de los mejores exponentes de los juegos que tenemos hoy en día. El sonido está bastante bien, aunque la música está poco presente, cuando aparece lo hace en momentos relevantes y les da un plus muy agradable. Y, en cuanto a optimización, me he encontrado algunos bugs puntuales, especialmente con combates muy multitudinarios, pero nada demasiado terrible.

    Por todo ello, Wasteland 3 es un juego muy recomendable.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Geçen hafta Divinity Original Sin 2'yi oynamamış olsam eminim bu oyunu daha çok severdim. Öyle bir şaheserden sonra combat ve açık dünyanın keşfi biraz sığ geldi. Ancak yine de sevdim.

    2. oyunu çok sevmiş birisi olarak değerlendirecek olursam, onun üzerine koymadığını belirtmem gerek. Çetelerle olan problemleri çözme şeklini size bırakması, verdiğiniz kararların başınıza daha büyük problemler çıkarması klasik bir rpg'deki kadar güzeldi. Özellikle ana görevlerde sık sık zor kararlar vermeniz gerekiyor. İflah olmaz bir transhümanist olduğum için her problemde robotların ve sentetiklerin tarafını tuttum, insanlarda ise ilkeli davranıp köleleri ve mağdurları destekledim, düşmanları öldürmek yerine tutukladım. Özellikle Steeltown fabrikasında ve Denver petrol bölgesinde verdiğim bu kararlar bölgeyi ekonomik olarak mahvetti. Evet, oyunu olabilecek en kötü sonla bitirdim. Kısacası problemleri çözme serbestisi 2. oyunla aynı seviyede, eh bir rpg'de en önemli şey de bu sanırım. Üstelik YZ ile olan görevlerde, bir bilim kurgu fanatiği olmama rağmen yeni hikayeler gördüm, yeni duygular yaşadım. Türe bu açıdan bir şeyler kattığını söyleyebilirim.

    Açık dünyada her yeri dolaştım, gezdim ama o kadar da keyifli değildi. Her yerde küçük hikayeler veya gizemler bulmak isterdim. Yine de yan görevlerin çoğu zaman ilgi çekici olduğunu, oralarda dahi yaptığınız seçimlerin sonuçları olduğunu görmek sevindiriciydi.

    Combat sıkmıyor ama çok çeşitlenmiyor da. Düşmanlar genelde aynı ve çevre kullanımı kısıtlı olduğu için DOS2'deki keyfi almadım. Bir de oyun turn-based ama karakter değil taraf turn-based. Yani sıra size geçtiğinde her karakter sırayla oynamıyor. Siz istediğiniz karakteri istediğiniz zaman, ap'si yettikçe oynayabiliyorsunuz. Hatta ap'si varsa oynamış olduğunuza geri dönebiliyorsunuz. Bu iyi mi olmuş yoksa kötü mü bilmiyorum ama savaşları kolaylaştırdığı kesin.

    Oyuna sonradan gelen karakterler pek ilgi çekici değil. Sonradan geldikleri için almak da istemiyorsunuz çünkü o ana kadar onun sahip olduğu özellikleri birisine vermiş oluyorsunuz ve onu almak partinizin dengesini bozuyor. Oyun da bunu bildiği için karargahınızda partinizin tamamını kendinizin oluşturmasına izin vermiş ve sonradan gelenlere aman aman bir hikaye yazmamış. Ben Marshal Kwon, Lucia Wesson, Ironclad Cordite ve Jodie Bell'i yanıma aldım. Lucia Wesson ve Ironclad Cordite'i şiddetle tavsiye ederim çünkü oyunu bitirmek için hikayede kritik rolleri var ve güzel hikaye vadediyorlar.

    Bence oyun biraz kolaylaşmış. 2. oyunda sağlık çantası veya mermi bulmak zordu, biraz dikkatli kullanmanız gerekiyordu. Bunda hem bunlar hem de skill point'ler üzerinize atılıyor resmen. Ekibinizi uzmanlaştırmak ya da savaşları kazanmak çok kolay. Bu tarz oyunları daha önce bir kaç kez oynamışsanız zorda oynamanızı tavsiye ederim. Normal haliyle oyun biraz kolay geldi bana. Ya da ben tüm yan görevleri yaptığım için ana görevlere 4-5 level güçlü gittiğimden de kolay gelmiş olabilir.

    Karakterlerin ortak envanter kullanması oynanışı kolaylaştırmış, sevdim. İşin amelelik kısmını büyük ölçüde törpülemiş. Envanter ağırlık sınırı olmaması da oyunlarda en gıcık olduğum şeyi almış götürmüş.

    Oyunun sonlarına doğru, ilkelerinden ve seçtiğimiz taraftan dolayı iki karakterimizin yanımızdan ayrılması fena koydu. Üstelik birisi yanında bizon ve erkek geyik götürdü.

    SPOILER ALERT
    Kendi üssümüze saldırıp kendi elemanlarımızı öldürmek zorunda kalmak etkileyiciydi.
    SPOILER ALERT

    Müzikler güzel, özellikle ana görevlerin son savaşlarında çalanlar oyuna epik bir hava katıyor. Bunun yanında görsellik de ikinci oyuna göre epey gelişmiş.

    Sonuç olarak hiç sıkmayan, görevleri yaparken boşuna yapıyormuş hissi uyandırmayan, birçok görevde zor kararlar aldıran ve bunların sonuçlarıyla yüzleştiren, biraz kısa ve daha çok derinleşme şansını kaybetmiş bir oyun olmuş.    … Expand

I went back and forth because a lot of the issues, even months later including a patch that actually broke my game (really?) made me rate the game a zero for a bit. But, now it's totally playable and I finished and I have perspective.

    Overall, with all fixes, it was a very good game, awesome colorful gfx, fun combat, excellent voice acting; some really good story lines (folks who love gray choices will LOVE these). I also really like the music, some of the folksy versions of the 70s music is cute. Finally, multiple Quick Save slots is EXACTLY what a PC game should have but rarely does any longer.

    It's a bit different than WL2, somewhat simpler, "dumbed down" for the masses, but on HARD difficulty it was still challenging in part. You can steam roll a lot and then suddenly be surprised how enemies will meat grind you; definitely keeps you on your toes. If you get sloppy in some parts, you will be obliterated no matter how much armor you think you have. On normal, I suspect you will just snooze your way through combat especially if you have any talent tactically at all. WL2 also was more "desperate" and Colorado reflects a somewhat more abundant economy (if you have the money). At the end of the game I had hundreds of rounds of everything and about 100 medkits of each kind, etc.

    Anyway, it's a very entertaining dark story and I had fun all the way to the end. I would play WL4 , but the rollout was so bad I might wait 6-12 months. I waited 3 and that still wasn't enough. It's a talented team but the product was rushed or they didn't care and either way it left a bad taste in my mouth for a franchise I was beginning to love. I hope they learn and improve, because the final product was worth it.    … Expand

    First things first: My score is strictly for the game, but honestly with the amount of issues I had with Wasteland 3 it should be lower.
    However, most of these issues simply stem from the bad Microsoft Store and Universal Windows Platform. Because every time I tried the game with steam everything worked fine and every time I played the game on game pass, everything was **** again.

    The worst issues were the ones that broke even my save games. That's why I simply can't give a lower score, because it's obviously not the developers or games fault.

    A lot of games I played on game pass had most of these issues.

    Wasteland 3 is pretty much everything I hoped for after I was done with the prequel.
    These games don't have the best story, but it's still servicable. However, as it is with Fallout (at least before it was handed to Bethesda), the reason why I love these kind of games isn't the story but rather the characters, exploration and settings.

    Aspects that are definitely great in Wasteland 3!    … Expand

    WL3 is a big, combat heavy RPG through post apocalyptic Colorado. Expect anywhere between 50-70 hours of gameplay if you do most the side quests. The heart of this game is the moral choices it will throw at you. Lots of factions with their own agendas. Most the time your going to piss someone off, and it will get you thinking about the consequences for minutes before you make a choice.WL3 is a big, combat heavy RPG through post apocalyptic Colorado. Expect anywhere between 50-70 hours of gameplay if you do most the side quests. The heart of this game is the moral choices it will throw at you. Lots of factions with their own agendas. Most the time your going to piss someone off, and it will get you thinking about the consequences for minutes before you make a choice. There is no pure good path in this world, other games have tried this before as well, but Wasteland 3 really excels at it.

    Combat is turn based as Wasteland 2 was, built on action points like the old Fallout and Xcom games. Its a tried and true system that works good enough. Guns are pretty hard hitting in this game. Succeeding in combat means taking the first shot so your party gets to go first and aren't caught flat footed where you will be shot to ribbons.

    Weapons come in various styles: melee based, handguns, shotguns, submachine guns, assault rifles, heavy machine guns, sniper rifles, energy weapons, flamethrowers, and rocket launchers. Each weapon category has abilities you can take as perks to make them more strategic. For instance submachine guns have an "unload" option to let you empty your entire clip at reduced accuracy. Heavy machine guns have a supress ability to keep enemies pin downed and limit their attacking ability, There are about 20 guns in each category. Most types have several "energy" type variants that do more damage to robots and less to humans. There are mods to make the weapons better, provided you have a character who has taken the appropriate skill. The mods are fairly simple compared to recent fallouts, but some are pretty powerful. Enhancing the range of shotguns and flamethrowers particularly spells a wave of doom to your enemies. Armor mods exist as well, but are less valuable, and not worth the bother imo.

    Now lets go over some negatives. The world map is decent size, it does feel a little cramped and seems to be always night. Would have liked to seen it made a little larger with more open areas. Load times are long, not sure if its all the hand drawn art or what, but expect near minute load times everytime you enter a new area. Perhaps they could have preloaded areas as you start getting close to an exit point.

    My final rating would probably be 8.5 for WL3. Since Meta doesn't allow halves, I rounded up to 9 given the sheer size and length of this game. It's rarely boring and combat remains fun even though your using the same strategies over and over. An outstanding achievement by Inexile.    … Expand

    When I started playing Wasteland 3, I was pretty intimidated by all the options at character creation, and I didn't feel like the premade characters were well-optimized. There are so many skills in this game, and at the beginning, you can only create two characters - you can't have everything. This gave me a ton of decision paralysis.

There are so many skills in this game, and at the beginning, you can only create two characters - you can't have everything. This gave me a ton of decision paralysis.

    After you get out of the tutorial area, you are allowed to pick or create 2 more characters to add more skills you missed out on, and are allowed to take 2 special companions as well to further flesh out your skill variance.

    I feel like knowing what those 2 initial companions are in advance can help you optimize which skills you should pick on the remaining 4 created characters. This is one of my big initial criticisms of the game - you can find yourself in a situation where you picked many of the same skills across multiple companions, and this will make skill checks a lot more frustrating in the beginning since you need less overlap.

    To compound to this skill metagaming problem, respecs are not free - they cost money. So if you realize that you made a mistake, it will first cost you $200 to respec and I heard it costs more in the future. At the beginning of the game, this is a big punish - you only have $400-500 tops for quite a while so the respec is asking almost half of your entire treasury. I believe this was too much of an ask for players not playing on a harder difficulty and are still trying to learn the game. Each of the 4 customized rangers should have been given a free respec on Normal difficulty or lower. It would have made character creation less stressful and less time-consuming because I honestly felt like I just needed to start over to optimize my money situation at the beginning of the game. I did not want to just burn $200 because I was learning.

    Beyond these problems though, the game is excellent. Once you have a party of 6 characters you are happy with, meeting the various skill checks feels pretty chill and you can just play the game. That is when the game is at its best. There's a really good balance of exploration, dialog, and combat, and nothing outstays it's welcome. Everything is very high quality for this style of game.

    I also really appreciate the large font sizes and the game's complexity is "just right". If you think games like Pathfinder are too complicated, then Wasteland 3 is a good place to start because its rules are very accessible - it's pretty similar to Fallout 3 in terms of complexity, but your skills and perks are distributed across 6 characters instead of 1.

    So, I give this game 4 stars out of 5. If Wasteland 3 had been less punishing towards new players and allowed for more free respecs to prevent new players from having to start all over, I honestly would have given Wasteland 3 a 5.

    Hopefully, inXile will learn from this mistake and make their next game just a little more accessible for new players.    … Expand

    A great turn-based RPG that seems to improve on its predecessor in almost every way. I liked the dessert environment of W2, but the quality of life improvements in W3 made for a more enjoyable experience. The music and general audio needs special mention as it’s great for building tension and atmosphere.

I played through on the "normal" difficulty, and I felt it was a tad easy in the late game, but that could be attributed to me being very careful about min/maxing my team and their attributes and skills. If I could go back and do it it over, I'd choose the next higher difficulty level over the standard one. All in all, well worth the money, and I can't recommend it enough!… Expand

    Wasteland 3 should actually be called Fallout 3, as it has much more in common with two legendary Interplay/Black Isle Studios games than any later entry to the Fallout series. If that’s not a sufficient recommendation, let me put it plainly: Wasteland 3 is the best turn-based post-apocalyptic RPG in many, many years. Yes, at the time of writing this review there were many gameplay and technical issues that needed to be addressed as soon as possible, but the fun this game offered made it very easy to look past them.
