i played this game at launch, and in this initial state it had a few issues such as extremely long load times that mitigated my enjoyment of the game a bit. maybe i would increase to 4.5 stars upon a replay (which i am planning, since two DLC's have been released). but overall i think the game is pretty excellent. i like to think of this game as a post-apocalyptic Divinity: Original Sin 2. maybe this is offensive to Wasteland fans, as Fallout/Wasteland pre-date the entire Divinity series. but they have similarities in how the character interacts with party members, the choices that are available, the RPG progression, the side-quests, the combat... for people who enjoy this type of game, it really does everything well. maybe the ending is a bit rushed and not too satisfying, but that's the only nitpick i can think of. the soundtrack deserves a special mention too, their reimagining of some classic Western tracks is really cool.
