Yes. It was primarily made to be multiplayer, and the single-player stuff was just an afterthought after the player base said that's not what they wanted from a FOT clone. There's no turn-based option, either, it's all real-time squad based. Makes it difficult to know what any of your characters are doing. Also, it was just boring.

I love FOT but they didn't take much from it that made that game enjoyable.

If you want a new experience with FOT, Fallout Redux with Equilibrium on top fix almost all the bugs and missing content with the base game.

Dustwind is an awful name imo.
I'm just stating the facts.
Question is are you going to gargle the truth or swallow?

Watched a video of the game and it just made me wish they had someone make a real CRPG in the engine using the same assets. What a waste.

You may as well not bother replying to my posts if it's to argue anything except concrete facts or your personal opinion. I still probably won't see it.
Reject your retarded-wing political programming and learn to think.
If you can.

The skin clearly is white, which technically makes the dreadlocks cultural appropriation and therefore racist...

I don't know what part of the world you're from, but that level of swarthiness is absolutely not white.

To me, the picture you posted doesn't look swarthy at all, just shadowed, as if in a dim room.
