 #stalker 2 is finally out

60 euro-pesos ... damned expensive for something that has been like literally 10 years late

i'm just gonna put it on my wishlist and nab it when it gets a 20%+ discount

 lol... 32gb of memory to get 2k at reasonable framerate? that's pretty fuckin hefty requirements 
 could be the metro series a sort of spiritual successor of stalker? 
 it absolutely is, and it's russian, not ukrainian, and if past efforts are any indication, i mean, when i first bought Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl back in 2007, it was a total bug party, to the point where you couldn't even finish the game for some time after the release, so i'm not gonna hold my breath they did any better with the sequel either 
 we will see, I'll play it in multiple years from now. I'm always at least 1 generation behind with videogames so I can play great games for super cheap and low hardware requirements.  
 yeah, i'm just putting it on my wishlist... more likely i get the next edition of Dying Light than this krane fest 
 In Russia, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is very popular, and many almost consider it a Russian game. Personally, I haven’t played Russian/Ukrainian games, so I completely missed S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

 
 stalker is a fun game... it's like Elder Scrolls: Nuclear Psi Doomsday... lots of progression to more cool weapons, equipment, more interesting anomalies, better artifacts, and then in Call of Pripyat they added a whole weapon/armor upgrade tree as well... the original is a reallllly long game, i mean, takes weeks to play through it 
 Lol comparing Euros to pesos but then complaining that 60 Euros is a lot.
