The spirit is there, though.įor a long time it seemed unlikely that there would ever be a true sequel. The Fallout series has been absolutely fantastic, but its ties to Wasteland have been limited to a few Easter Eggs.
#SWORDIGO WALKTHROUGH WASTELANDS PC#
A game called Mean Time was in development for some time, but was dropped due to the waning popularity of the Apple ][ platform, and was not deemed important enough to port over to IBM PC or start over from scratch, and even that was not really a sequel, but was reported to have something to do with time travel. Escape From Hell and Fountain of Dreams were both written with the intention of looking and operating in a similar fashion, but they do not, strictly speaking, utilize the same engine, and only FoD shares any thematic elements (ie: post nuclear war) in common with Wasteland. There were several games made that are mistakenly called sequels.
The richness of the world begs to be fleshed out more. Wasteland has always been a game that screams out for a sequel. Any similarities between this version and earlier ones are merely coincidental.Īnything earlier than 3.0: pretty much irrelevant now. V3.0: Fairly complete rewrite from the ground up. V3.5 Added some very interesting tidbits of information I learned from the Wasteland 2 forums, including the sex change thing in Quartz, and the purpose of the gas masks. V3.6 Added some new stuff, mining in the abandoned mine, ladies’ room in Scott’s Bar, and a possible super-loot bag opportunity at the Stagecoach Inn. V3.7 Updated information about the sequel.
#SWORDIGO WALKTHROUGH WASTELANDS UPDATE#
V3.8 Update email address and sequel information. I actually have never had an opportunity to play any of the other versions for more than about 5-10 minutes or so. Note: This walkthrough was written with the IBM PC version in mind. You’ve recently been sent out with the wonderfully vague mission of “investigating some strange disturbances” up north around the area of Las Vegas. Most of the action takes place along the AZ-NV border. It takes place some time after WWIII, and you are part of the intrepid Desert Rangers, a para-military group that has set up operations in an abandoned federal prison located in northwestern Arizona. Okay, Wasteland is simply one of the greatest CRPGs ever written. I take no responsibility for any loss of life, limb, or property as a result of reading this document. Note: Attempts have been made to proofread this document, but I am not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, so I may have missed some things here and there.
