Cool graphics, emphasis on multiplayer and Fallout 4 like dialog.

Sounds like utter popamole garbage to me.

Too bad I'm not in regular communication with Brother None anymore. He would probably explain how "Fallout 4-like dialogue" just means a little bit of cinematic zoom-in or something.

Like the visual style and having my fingers crossed that they've switched from Unity to UE4. Not really surprised about popamole elements, everyone with a functioning brain knew that Fargo was going to sell out as soon as he could afford it. Not to mention that close ups are basically Fallout-like talking heads done cheaply and something that has been going on since KotOR.

It's too bad that InXile have embraced national socialism and underhanded fan-abuse because it looks good and sounds interesting (co-op notwithstanding). If they were still in my good books I could see myself backing this, but not now and definitely not on Fig.

I might buy it when it comes out, but probably not full price.

It'll be good for what it is, whatever that turns out to be.
Better than anything else released between the death of Troika and the first harvest of crowdfunded turn-based games (and non-crowdfunded turn-based indie projects that just happened to coincide with the release of crowdfunded turn-based games).

Why not give ambitious mediocrity another chance?

How is Vehicle Combat going to work in a turn-based system?!

Could be TB like in RoadWar 2000. (Hope so anyway!)

Hmmm, makes you wonder if the vehicle elements have anything to do with their attempt at trademarking Autoduel.
Maybe they want to use the resources to make a standalone f2p car combat game.

For action car combat I'd prefer Interstate 76 as a base.

Only shit I hate in games is exclusive shit for multi/co-op. Particularly in RPG's. Why should I miss out on certain stuff cause I can't find another loser to play with at a particular time?And maybe I'm crazy enough to prefer to play a RPG alone?

That's why they're including random matchmaking. You'll always be able to find a partner as long as you have an internet connection.

This could revolutionize cRPG multiplayer as we know it.

Nice. Wasteland 2 was pretty good at putting me to sleep in those restless nights. Expecting some more snooze inducing content in Wasteland 3.

Maybe I'll pirate it by I seriously doubt I'll buy it.
When I were a toddler way back in age o sail I were taken over to Shaun Richardsons house, his mam an mine had decided we were gonna be friends cos they were, only snag were me an Shaun dint get on, dint wanna play together, an resented being locked in same room while us mothers pushed an prodded us to play an have fun. Finally I punched Shaun in nose an we got into a right scrap. Dragged out kickin an screamin, wi me mam effin an blindin about what a little bastard I were.

For some reason this obsession that devs have got wi makin you play multiplayer seems same as me mams, I play to fuckin get away from people not to fuckin socialise like a friendly cunt. Take your multiplayer an shove it up your arse.
Agreed but nowadays MP is a must in tier 1 RPGs it seems. Cyberpunk 2077 will also have it and I'm betting that Bethesda's next game will also have it.

It's interesting that as of now, Pillars of Eternity 2 seems to be the most modest and straightforward of the next generation of "Big Three" Kickstarters. We might be surprised but I haven't seen evidence of any interest in multiplayer from Obsidian.
