You go on a hotdog stand and want to buy a hotdog, the guy that is selling want to sell a Wasteland 2 hotdog and tells you it has Fallout and Wasteland 1 sauces on it and he makes a traditional hotdog for fans of hotdog . You buy it happy and taste it but the guy placed alot less Fallout and Wasteland sauces in it than he promised, you felt kinda cheated but the sausage tasted good enough, won't blow your mind but it wasn't the worst hotdog ever, meh, anything goes when you are hungry right?
Next day, being kinda disappointed by the previous hotdog seller, you decide to go to a stand where the guy claims being the genius of the hotdogs. He tells you he has a brillant idea about hotdogs and he was the only one that had the understanding of everything that gone wrong on hotdogs all those years and he would make a revolutionary hotdog. He makes the hotdog, place all kinds of sauces on it. You pay for it and buy it, after a bite you discover there is no sausage on the hotdog, only bread and sauces. You complain of course, but he tells you that the geniality behind his work is that he makes hotdogs without sausages for people with sensible stomachs and as you ask what is the point of a hotdog without a sausage in it, he tells you he watched alot of people having stomach reactions to sausage so he removed them and that is better for everyone, see, a revolutionary hotdog. That is the PoE hotdog for you.
Seems like a good game..Age of Decadence
Eh, are those two your only choices? Because honestly I was very much disappointed in both of them.
Where is the kingcomrade option?
I'll recommend you AoD as well. It's a bit different to those games you listed (dev really likes edgy writing for one thing), but unlike W2 or PoE I actually managed to finish it without dying of boredom (a real danger if you go with PoE). I also recommed Dragonfall (DC), I think it's a much better choice than either of those two.I was stuck between four games first : Shadowrun,Divinity original sin,wasteland2 and poe
it was his first post
i voted for wasteland coz at least i remember where i stop playing it
I will make the choice easier for your by reminding that there are other cRPGs that were also released recently:

Hi! This is my first post.
I want to buy a crpg game but now im confused between Wasteland2 and PoE.
Only turn based game i ever played is Fallout1. And i enjoyed it too much but i have more rtwp experience.
Which one is a better game to buy and why?!
Directs cut only changed a couple of map elements, touched up the graphics and added bad voice overs.
I finished Arizona last night and I didn't notice anything that made the writing better, the quests Better, the combat better, it's all still the same mediocre bland post-apocalyptic experience.
That patch list doesn't really agree with that assessment. I'm also looking at a list of Quirks that say progression has to be different.
Apart from Quirks and Perks there are a lot of quality of life improvements, especially the character screens and right click Actions come to mind.Perks and Quirks are an interesting system, the quirks you only choose at character creation, none of them are worth it and you might as well not choose any, then every few level you get a perk, i think i had 7 on my main character by the end of Arizona, he is a pistol user, which means 3 or 4 perks amount to a 4% chance that a single pistol shot wont use AP's and one where i get %hit as i focus fire, on top of that i added one for carry weight and for waster consumption.
Know what all that amounted to? little, i didnt make any significant impact in how i played my characters compared to vanilla, on the difficulty of encounters.
The experience, the content is mostly the same, maybe LA changes a few more things.
My compulsion to vote in every poll is being tested with two shit games. Play wasteland I suppose, at least they tried.
"None of them are worth it", not true, just look at the people on the Wasteland 2 forums who actually know what they're talking about, some are greatly useful, but what's more important is that many change the way you play, which you complain about the perks not doing.Perks and Quirks are an interesting system, the quirks you only choose at character creation, none of them are worth it and you might as well not choose any, then every few level you get a perk, i think i had 7 on my main character by the end of Arizona, he is a pistol user, which means 3 or 4 perks amount to a 4% chance that a single pistol shot wont use AP's and one where i get %hit as i focus fire, on top of that i added one for carry weight and for waster consumption.

I think D:OS is better than PoE, personally.If you know a better game fell free to suggest it.

Generally WL2 DC with the last patch is how the game should've been all along. A really good game now, close up there with the classics.
Yes Arizona did seem a bit easier but LA does seem deadlier than before. Especially the CotC for me, they inflict some serious pain.Although I think that difficulty in Arizona got a bit screwed. On Ranger it's pretty easy most of the time, esp. if you buy weapons from this one travelling vendor...
Yes . i was reading it.Have you seen http://www.rpgcodex.net/content.php?id=9453 ?
