The game is free, yet people complain.
I wish I could slam people's heads across my screen.

I'll be sincere I didn't know there was a broken money strat, ala IRyS and the greed stamp a few years back.
It's mostly because I've been playing Kanata and bulldozing fools with my souped up attack bonuses.

People wanna be autistic and buy the bullshit items but don't want to actually put in the ungodly amounts of time and effort driven by autism to actually be autistic.

Imagine if speed runners told devs to make their games winnable in 1 second because it's easier?

Nobody is forcing these people to use the House, it's totally skippable side content made as a break from the main gameplay loop, but yet I've seen some people act like "KAY IS STRAYING TOO FAR INTO FORCING US TO GRINNNNDDDD"

I don't even care about the superfluous shit, I only play the main game mode. I am surprised he didn't nerf it last patch, tbh. The whole point of making shit expensive was to have more grind. Easy farm just shortcuts the game's progression. I had over a million coins saved up from last patch after only 10 runs during that period to save for this patch and immediately got all the actual game unlocks and gacha, for example.

Well the marine shit was making people like 40 million PER GAME, and it's even easier now since you can remove items from the pool to get any loadout you want.

So uh, STALKER 2 review after playing about two hours of a pirated copy out of pure grim fascination.

Short form: Sergei Grigorovich, you've fucked it again.

Long form: Jesus Christ weeping in Heaven this is literally just a Chernobyl skin over a nu Far Cry game. There's no A-life, there's no soul, the PC port is horrific both performance and controls wise, the game has worse general gun animation than most CoP mods from 2014, fucking hitmarkers, enemy detection cones, bloodsuckers that can yell at you to stun you, and knock you down for two seconds if they hit you, bandits that make Clear Sky grenade spam look tame, you can't throw a bolt without a tutorial NPC telling you how to, artifacts don't spawn unless you're holding a detector out, NPCs that manifest out of thin air behind you because A-LIFE DOESN'T FUCKING EXIST, the poltergeist has a damage aura that nearly kills you if he bumps into you, constant tardproofed tutorial popups, while the game has you fight a fucking bloodsucker and poltergeist as your first two enemies without giving you a shotgun. Genuine fucking trash, my expectations were at about landfill/10, GSC's team imploded and spread out all over Russia and Ukraine after CoP was made, but this shit is at Ganges river/10, it is unironically the worst it's ever been.

Anyways, 10/10 slava ukraini, there isn't a political officer waiting to execute me if I give it a 9/10 behind me.

there's more to good character design then well animated tits and ass. I would not call any character from Nikke beautiful in fact id call them all whores designed for pea brained Neanderthals and as shock bait.

which works to be clear.

the guys argument seems to boil down to hyper feminine traits equal beautiful but that seems like a very narrow definition when people want to fuck the alien queen and gruntilda of all things.

There was no way GSC was going to satisfy the hype given the circumstances to be honest. I had a feeling things would turn out like this. I guess it doesn't hurt to wait a year or two for fixes.

Ah, that makes sense. I never played any of the stalker games but when I saw a comment along the lines of "maybe we should have let Russia win that war so the Ukrainians couldn't release this game", I assumed the game was shit.

I would experience Shadow of Chernobyl and Call of Pripyat vanilla before delving into mods such as Anomaly. From what I hear 2 is still an enjoyable game but rough around the edges just like the originals were.

You should use some bugfixing mods for SoC and CoP, but not the Zone Reclamation Project because it actually changes big parts of the games. And default Anomaly is kinda retarded and overly complex and gay for the explicit purpose of being overly complex and gay, but the Old World Pack for Anomaly is comfy as fuck and is a lot closer to what the actual games are like.

This might be a cop-out, but I watched a review from a guy who had previously made an entire video skeptical and worried about the game. He basically says this verbatim, with the caveat that it apparently starts feeling like an actual STALKER game after the ~six hour mark.

I have not played, but I do find watching reviews and coverage fascinating.
