And here it is. Honestly, I'm pretty impressed with what they showed. Looks a lot like a party-based Fallout, but I honestly don't consider that to be a bad thing. Hopefully this all will pan out, because the idea of "one of these games" coming out this year excites me quite a bit.

This looks so dope! :)

Looks great for where they are in development. This gives me hope for the shape of the final product.

I really like the seamless transition between exploration and combat. That said, not a big fan of the art style/tone. Obviously with the 'Wasteland' title there come some expectations, but I sort of wish that they'd do something a big more original with it. It's so generic and off-putting that, despite how great the combat looks, I don't think I want to spend any time in that world.

Looks amazing, did you read any of the video comments? my god its almost like 99% of Vimeo watchers didn't listen to what he was saying or even get that its a first look at game early in development

Wow ... looks / plays amazing so far , and who said only AAA games are the only good stuff around , or that these types of games cant happen anymore.

I'm not really sure what you'd prefer out of a game like this. As a sequel to Wasteland, it's expected to maintain at least some of the tone and aesthetic of the original (thought the original is also incredibly primitive by today's standards).
