    Just finished the game. Gameplay and story are ok. In fact, it is kinda fun to walk down memory lane with it's retro/ old Skool gameplay and over the top, 80's style action b film story. Gameplay is completely turn based, and works well and provides a nice, chess like challange. Only problem with the actual gameplay for me was the lack of any in game minimap. Otherwise, no complains there.Just finished the game. Gameplay and story are ok.

Otherwise, no complains there. Technically however, it is a complete turkey on ps4. There seems to be some sort of memory leak which will make the game crawl after playing for 30+ minutes, and since the game looks like a late ps2 game this is kinda embarrassing. Over the duration of game (70 plus hours) the game also crashed multiple times. Navigating the menu in game can also become quite laggy, and there is an annoying lag between pressing the thumb stick to move your character, and the character actually moving on screen. Good thing is there seems to be a patch in the works. Having said that, the game can be very fun at times, but because of the technical short comings I rate this game 4/10.… Expand

    I tried hard to like this game, but ultimately found it nearly unplayable. I'm no stranger to difficult games, nor to hardcore RPGs, but this game takes too much for granted where a more polished experience would have made Wasteland 2 shine more brightly. Definitely a good value in terms of quantity, but I found nothing to love.

    After damonta part ( 20-30% of game) game is unstable. Crash every 20-40 minutes. It is almost not playable at this point. Also some features are missing compare to pc version. It is unfinished product. I strongly suggest to avoid it on ps4, better buy it on PC. Game itself is great but not on console.

    Bad graphics, a lot of talking and too many things you need to learn. Worst game I played in 3 years.

    An enjoyably grotty world hampered by unintuitive controls. [Christmas 2015, p.87]

    The game places trust in the moral, philosophical, and intellectual response of the audience.

    As I put in more time, the game kept opening up and more of my own light bulbs lit with the realization of potential.
