Despite its limits, Costume Quest 2 is a fun little treat, one that doesn’t last too long but perhaps that’s for the best. Double Fine has done a decent job overhauling the combat system but while there’s a more robust set of mechanics than the first game, they do wear thin towards the end.
Wasteland 2 is an expansive game that demands to be replayed again and again to get the best out of it. While a lot of the detailed mechanics feel somewhat archaic, they’re not going to hold back dedicated players who want to micromanage and really role play their group of characters. It has all of the familiar elements and even if some aspects of its presentation are not quite up to modern standards, its design and gameplay are timeless and welcome.
As I mentioned earlier, this year’s edition is building on what was already established; it will please longtime fans and keep them engaged as Football Manager 14 gives them all the depth and options they would want. There could still be more done to ease new fans into the series but that will maybe have to wait until next year.
