3.5/5 ★ – xXWoodinatorXx's review of Wasteland 3.

Decent start. A few interesting story beats (killing those youths responsible for the attack on the town was unexpected). I think I’m going to like kitting out and upgrading my squad. It’s a bit janky but I’m still liking the vibes. Combat has been basic so far but seems like it has potential. I’m intrigued after a couple hours. My biggest critique so far is I don’t really like exploring the world. Hopefully it gets better, but to start I am often just getting turned around. And it’s all rather bland looking. But I like the combat, I like the characters I’ve run into, I like the upgrades, and I’ve enjoyed the quests. So there is a lot of good to start. This game is awesome. Keeps getting better. I’ve been enjoying creating my squad. Planning who will do what so I’m prepared for all situations and can make use of most of my weapons. It’s been really fun. I’ve also been enjoying exploring the world more. The first section was a bit more back and forth but it’s been better recently. The encounters have been unique and pretty great. Some funny ones too. Flab the Inhaler was a funny one. This Reagan God-President is hilarious. Love it. Then these friendly peaceful robots are awesome too. Great factions in this game. I’m siding with these robots they are chill. Keeps getting better. Very funny game. I’m loving the encounters, factions, and side quests. The combat and building up my party has also been fun. Really enjoying it. The car AI Morningstar mission was great. Beat it. Really liked it. I wish the final few combat experiences were tougher though. My squad was really overpowered it was a cake walk. Which was fun making such a well balanced death squad, but I wish I could have tested them more.
