According to statement in the reveiw as the game is the first RPG that doesnt take place in medieval or fantasy world - well, I am sure that you played 'Fallout' Sebatianos

Fallout was released in 1997... or did you mean Wasteland?

I guess you mean the old text based game - It's Planetfall, not Fallout (Fallout is too young)... It's really dificult to say which games are RPG and which are adventures, but text based games tend to be more adventures than RPG.

and about Wasteland (the one that Horseman mentioned), it's an RPG with "modern themes" as well, but it starts off as medieval and you get into present, future... later on in the game.

im completely stuck on the second mission, the spaceship part. i have some parasites killing off my crew...i went to level 6 and found the medic room and theres a machine that says it will operate and take the parasites away and then theres three options like reprogram, talk to and shoot machine or something. no matter what i choose and who i choose to do it with, i fail and my members just start dying off. im really getting discouraged to the point ill never play it again which i dont want. any help?

Do any of your characters have the programming skill? I think that's how I passed that part, but it's been forever since I played it.
