Lorfean: Well, it's not really "another" old school RPG game, because the type of game they're aiming for with Wasteland 2 is simply not being made anymore.
...

Trilarion: Then how did it play?

No one to sell things to? Or easy to sell things always? No dungeons or maze or labyrinthine areas that need to be explored and cleaned of zombies, monsters or other beings that attack you immediately? No quests telling you that you need to go somewhere and find something or kill somebody? All these things can be interesting or boring depending on how they are setup.

What did the players do in Wasteland?

orcishgamer: I'm not trying to be snarky, download it and play it (it's not like it's currently "for sale"), find out. You'll be pleasantly surprised. Just because some RPGs of that era didn't have much direction in them doesn't mean they all didn't, The Legend of Blacksilver is another excellent example of a RPG with a story and clear direction.

DodoGeo: One question, I pledged 50$ and selected the 50$ reward, did I have to make a 65$ pledge for the shipping or will that be billed sometime later?

uchos: I think you have to increase your pledge yourself.

nijuu: People reckon it will get to at least somewhere between 2-2.5mill?.

Finally pledged $50.Might move up to $100 later on funds permitting :).

Bodkin: Well, we have D&D games, right. But we still don't have System Shocks. So, fifty fifty?

Expack: I'd daresay that's a reasonable guesstimate.

Of course, one could arguably increase the odds by sending a suggestion to GOG saying they should negotiate with EA to be able to sell Wasteland 1, and, once the rights to sell the game are secured, work out a deal with Brian Fargo and his crew at inXile Entertainment to cross-promote Wasteland 1 and Wasteland 2. At least, that's what I chose to do, anyways...
