How To Find Darwin Village And Recruit The Night Terror In Wasteland 2

The long awaited sequel Wasteland 2 is peppered with hidden Easter eggs for those who played the original game released some 25 years back, one of which is a hidden enclave called Darwin Village. This sleepy little burg – currently inhabited by infected flesh eating mutants - only happens to hold the secret to curing cancer, as well as a curious biological oddity that is equally parts adorable and disgusting.

The heavily guarded Night Terror isn't controlled like a regular party member, but he has an obscene number of hit points, which makes him very useful, as he gets in the way of oncoming fire during combat, and that should be enough of a reason to make a Ranger want to ask him to tag along.

That's pretty cool, but didn't they just lay of 10k as a whole. Reportedly some from the gaming division even.

Confused in pa.

Sonyslave3585d ago

Yes they did , it the circle of life in the tech bizz.

Circle of life of meh games

This is called good PR. And an opportunity to hire veterans over scrubs.

phoenixwing585d ago

Not to call them scrubs but yeah some veteran devs are more welcome than others with less experience

Flakegriffin584d ago (Edited 584d ago )

You can hire veterans all day long but it’s the talent Microsoft lacks.

Zeref585d ago (Edited 585d ago )

It was mostly outside of gaming. Most of the game studios weren't affected besides 343i and Coalition from what I recall

Charlieboy333584d ago (Edited 584d ago )

But of course. Just look at the latest Saint's Row....that is exactly the level of quality and writing that Xbox strives for these days.

Aloymetal584d ago

Nope, like Redfall, Craig infinite

There u go. This is way more acceptable than buying up studios. Buy individual talent until you strengthen your already owned studios. 👏🏽

Deep Silver Says No Saints Row, TimeSplitters or Dead Island at E3

Deep Silver has revealed that several of its major franchises would not be at E3 2021 or the Summer Game Fest.

Kind of expected TS4 not to be there since they just got a team together for it

Duke191419d ago

Why even show up then? (kidding...ish)

Their parent (Embracer) owns close to 70 studios now and they have ~150 games in development.. but those three are certainly amongst the largest IP they hold so not an unfair point..

Dead Island 2 is such a weird one - it reminds me of Homefront in that its a sequel to a fairly ordinary game and going through multiple developers and concepts.. unless it is shaping up to be properly amazing, at some point somebody needs to just say this game isn't worth the time and money.

Some truth in advertising here, as they must really know something(y) that I don't know.

I just hope that the next Saint's Row is a bit more grounded. SR2 was great because in terms of gameplay and story it had just enough wackiness. SR3 was good, and fun, but got a bit too crazy adding zombies and all that. Just go back to what made SR2 so great.
