Wasteland 2 support
« on: March 13, 2012, 11:12:35 pm »

As some of you may already have heard, the great spiritual predecessor of Fallout and the game that was sleeping in the Halls of Fame for two decades is going to get a sequel. Yes, it is official as of today: the Kickstarter for Wasteland 2 has opened its doors for anyone willing to pledge her/his support to it.

Funded through an innovative and flexible channel, opened for its community, based on the very principles of tabletop games, smelling like an old-skool brew - several members of the Rotators simply could not resist the opportunity to express their admiration and to wish all the best to a project like this one. We hope everyone sharing our expectations and feelings will take part in supporting Wasteland 2.

"The godfather of Fallout" is big news! Thanks for the info, lisac. I heard B-man was planning to do this but also heard he was meeting some road blocks up to now. A lot of people will be glad he's pushing it through!

I was introduced to Fallout via Fallout 2 which will always be my fav comp game of all time. But i understand Wasteland is really the original, so Fallout 2 was more like Wasteland 3. Which makes 2238 like Wasteland 9 or something, and Wasteland 2 will really be like Wasteland 10 lol. Looking forward to it!

I really like this idea of projects being financed by the community. I'm seriously thinking about pledging 50 or 100 bucks. (The 5k option looks great too, but can't afford that kind of money ;D)

People who used to play rpg games like wasteland are now at working age and thus got some money to spend.

Based on evidence collected from various sources by trustworthy attendees it is undisputed veritability that the land ravaged by atomic warfare which caused extreme change of the ecosystem and environmental hazards can be considered unpleasant, rugged and unforgiving.

This is why I do not like marketing trends and data analysis and all that bull shit. Everything is made to sell to a mass majority. I hate newer RPGs, why do we need every new RPG in first person/third person where things like stats don't mean anything. Everything is first person shooter gameplay any more.

Brian Fargo is a brilliant man, and I say good luck to him! I hope he gets enough money to release this game he has my support.

I never played wastelands, a little past my time but what happened to games like these where there was complex stat systems and such.

Bring back the golden era of RPGs! I miss games that had good writing and a good storylines, not the same voice over for every character repeating the same thing bumping into them. I've had enough of this arrow to the knee crap!

Incredible good news.

Seems that wasteland resurrection would not be so harsh... ;D
