He immediately remembers the horrors he's seen in Darwin Village, he remembers Irwin John Finster, the crazed android hellbent on re-creating humanity in his own image once Cochise A.I. The sound is garbled due to poor reception, but he can make out something about merging "man and machine". The world seems peaceful, at least as peaceful as it can be after a nuclear holocaust, when now-general Vargas receives a disturbing radio message. The Desert Rangers have since abandoned the prison and re-located to the well-fortified Citadel Base, previously inhabited by the Guardians of the Old Order, a fanatic sect which the Rangers defeated during their adventures. It's been 15 years since this event took place. The brave Rangers who accomplished this feat, Snake Vargas, Angela Deth, Hell Razor, Thrasher and Ace, all reached legendary status among the ranks and the tales of their achievements are told to this day - both the good and the bad ones. It was the Desert Rangers who protected the remaining survivors on the planet against the agression of the killer machines of Base Cochise, making the facility's nuclear reactor to melt down and subsequently destroying the A.I. They founded the Desert Rangers and their badges became a sign of hope, hope that maybe someday the wastes will once again become fruitful and the people will once again unite under one flag, as one nation. The land was lawless and life was a struggle - it was those engineers who have decided to rise up and bring law and order back to their homeland. Soon they were proven wrong - once the initial chaos settled, settlements began popping up all over the Arizona desert. They expelled the inmates and, believing themselves to be the only survivors of the cataclysm, hunkered down. Army Engineers who managed to find shelter in a federal death row prison facility. Nuclear fallout blanketed the planet and only a few managed to survive the devastation. A cluster of meteors struck the Earth's crust and, mistaken for nuclear strikes, led to an all-out nuclear war between the U.S. Wasteland 2 gives you the opportunity to meet the protagonists of the original Wasteland, including Snake Vargas and Angela Dethġ998 was the year the spark of life on Earth was almost snuffed out. Was it worth the 27-year wait? Read on and find out! What Happens After the End?
Now, a year after its initial release, Wasteland 2 is being re-released as a Director's Cut edition, finally available on consoles, not just PC's. How? Why, with the magic of crowdfunding, of course. What can be done? Why, Wasteland 2, a long-awaited, official sequel, completing the circle of trials and tribulations the franchise has been through. Fast forward to present day and the situation from over two decades ago is now reversed - the Fallout franchise no longer belongs to its original creators, however Brian Fargo and the gang are itching to once again venture into the irradiated backyard of future America. Frustrated with the situation, the original creators splintered from Interplay, creating inExile Entertainment and leaving their troubled past behind. Since then, Interplay went through some financial issues, signing off the rights to Fallout to Bethesda in a rather confusing business deal that resulted in a lawsuit later on.
As you all know, Fallout became a massive hit, spawning many sequels.
It wasn't until Interplay parted ways with Electronic Arts that we could enjoy the true, albeit spiritual, sequel to the post-nuclear wonder - Fallout. There were two attempts at creating a worthy sequel to Wasteland, EA's own critically-panned Fountain of Dreams which is now considered non-canon and Interplay's cancelled Meantime which met its demise on the turning point of the 8 and 16-bit eras. Its creators always wanted to follow up on Wasteland's story, but unfortunately EA held the held exclusive rights over the franchise, making it difficult for Interplay to make their dreams a reality. Initially released in 1988, developed by Interplay and published by Electronic Arts, Wasteland was one of the very first RPG's that did not revolve around dungeons and dragons, focusing instead on a more futuristic setting - a world devastated by the nuclear holocaust. Wasteland as a franchise has quite an interesting history and it would be a crime not to touch upon it before really getting into the meat of this review.
