Or as bad, depending on who you ask ;)
I can't say just yet, but so far it seems great. The world is big and rich (though I am unable to compare the sizes until I do more exploring).
Dialogs vary from ok to great, they are very mass effect style - which doesn't bother me that much, but I'm sure there are folks out there that will cry about it. So far I like the voice acting very much, though I have began wondering how it's possible that 200 years after the war, there are people with a "fresh out of the boat eastern european niko belic style" or "cliche irish gal" accents... but it's nitpicking. is it ?
I have yet to fully explore the building/crafting system, though after tinkering with my guns, my armors and the power armor (that has a completely separate crafting table)
I have to say i really love it and now finally, collecting junk like aluminium cans, duct tape etc makes a lot of sense.
Companions so far are great, for once they are really cool and I have a hard time choosing which one to travel with. They are dumb, but they are immortal so you know, fun.
Generally the game is ...well, the only real problem I have with it is that it seems like it was somehow toned down. Like it's not a game for adults, but for adolescents, and by the American standard - showing guns, violence, bodies, carnage etc is ok. But at one point, one of my followers started talking about her past, about the abuse, how she was a slave and had to do "horrible things" and.. well, the game wasn't exactly as mature about this as I would have hoped. The world somehow seems devoid of sex, addiction is treated lightly.... It's very fun, but at the same time I was hoping it would get more serious at times. So far it hasn't.
so far a strong 8+/10.

I actually enjoy meeting nerds at these midnight release event bullshit things. Plus having a physical copy of anything is usually preferable.

For PC users: Is anyone else getting really bad frame drops when you're in combat or inside a building? I have a GTX 960 and i'm usually able to run everything on Ultra settings, but for whatever reason, I get really bad frame drops in certain areas. When i'm outside though, my frames are fine. Just curious if anyone else is having this problem and it's not just me.

I know everybody is crazy over playing Fallout 4 at the moment, but any of you considering Wasteland 2?

I gave it a shot when it came out and it was simply awful. Ugly, worked like crap, there was little balance and the gameplay was really "meh". I forced myself to go through 2 or 3 missions and couldn't do any more.
Supposedly the enhanced edition or whats it called that came out recently fixes most of the problems, but I've yet to play it

Yeah. It's a Bethesda game, it has their usual problems. There will probably be a fix sooner or later that will help somewhat. I just think back to when NV came out and reloading while moving with some weapons made you unable to fire.

The game works really great here. I was supposed to meet the minimal requirements but when the game started, it told me I can run it in full hd and med details.. and I have! Since then I took down the resolution a notch because this way I really can't hear my gtx 660 working and it works and looks great with very few frame drops and up till now, olny 3 crashes in the 49 or so hours I've played it. It's more stable, looks and runs better than Skyrim ;)
