The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion
(lemmy.world)
Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!
Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.
Wasteland 3 is a very approachable CRPG styled game. It’s not as granular in character build as Underrail because rather than playing as one character, you always have a party. You are encouraged to hyperspecialize each character, as dialog and skill checks will roll from whoever has the highest skill in the party.
I recommend WL3 over WL2 because the presentation is much more polished, a lot of unnecessarily complicated skills from WL2 have been collapsed in WL3, and the story feels more focused and doesn’t drag in the middle as WL2 does.
Tbh I've wanted to try one of them for a long time, just never got into the genre. Now that I'm more interested I may pull the trigger, although I'll probably go through Fallout 1/2 first considering they've sat in my library for years😅
Fallout 1 is great, one of my favorite games, but you do have to be ready to accept the 1990s presentation and tech. It can also be very difficult (but never impossible) if you don’t know what you’re doing.
Vanilla playthrough character: Speech, lockpick, small guns. Minimum charisma, high intelligence and agility. Gifted trait.
If you ever meet the used car salesman, don’t leave until you find the Red Ryder BB gun. Not the normal BB gun. Red Ryder.
