It's because the balance is insanely hosed up more than the spell that kills your loot.

I think by the time I got Disintegrate, the only things left to cast it on were monsters, locked doors, and losers with poo poo I didn't want so I could spam it freely.

Isn't this the bland edition of Numenera?

PoE is apparently just an HD version of Baldur's Gate, but at least the gameplay is real-time with pause.

People trusting InXile's writers to produce plot/characters remotely approaching PS:T's quality are almost guaranteed to be disappointed. Beyond that, you're getting archaic turn-based combat. Considering how uninteresting Wasteland 2's became after the first few hours, I'm not optimistic. InXile just aren't that talented, bottom-line.

Idk I feel like there were a lot of other things that made Wasteland 2 bad. Like how the way skill tests scaled in the game it necessitated basically having one character each specialize in one thing. Also this first third of the game is boring doo doo stuff iirc.

What's bad about Torment? I literally know nothing about that game at the moment.

Also, got the beta of this when I backed it and enjoyed it for the most part.

PS: T had like no combat and the actual combat that did exist wasnt very good.

this is like almost all combat with dialogue options thrown in here and there. Theyre kinda really vastly different games.

Wasteland 2 was a mess and Chris Avellone is only writing a little bit for it. That and Numenera, the tabletop game, is pretty mediocre so they don't have a great groundwork to build on.
