Old Time S.T.A.L.K.E.R Fan's Opinion

I had trepidation about this game, with the different Dev Team, it being just released, the mixed reception- Ive played S.O.C and C.o.P both vanilla and Modded to all heck throughout the years, and dont get me started on Gamma. I'm only about 12 hours into Heart of Chornobyl, and so Far- I am loving it. as an OG stalker fan I know it does not use A-life for the AI, which is unfortunate. But overall the spirit of the game is otherwise intact. The anomalies are fun, dangerous, and difficult to navigate at times. strategy is varied depending on terrain and enemy type/number. I knock off a star because the default control bindings are trash, and do not let you really rebind some of the important ones- the quickslot bindings force you to bind 4 slots to 2 keys (something i expect will be changed or modded in the future) and there are of course the just released bugs. most are minor, I dont mind any graphical or npc mods, those are just the zone being the zone.. but game breaking bugs like at the post office location locking the camera on a door because some random npc died before talking to them... that needs to be addressed. difficulty wise it is stalker. it is punishing. it is not a game you can just sprint from objective to objective. the zone will punish you if you try anomalies. dangerous mutants. anarchists, and bandits. Overall I fully Recommend it, and wish you good hunting, IF YOU ARE HESITANT DUE TO PRICE OR SPEC REQUIREMENTS, MAY I RECOMMEND THE ORIGINAL TRILOGY?? YOU WON'T REGRET IT! rig spec notes: I run an amd ryzen 5 5600x CPU, rtx 3070 ti GPU, with 32GB RAM

Better now that it's patched

tl;dr - Fun game, good atmosphere, and feels like a notch up from Stalker SOC. I'd say it's more like Call of Pripyat 2, if that matters to you. Still missing some parts, but devs are diligintly updating and its showing. Many of the game breaking issues mentions by other reviews have been fixed. Now that performance is improved, I can whole heartedly recommend. A little more detail - I'm writing this as of patch 1.1.3. By this point performance has been hugely improved and we're starting to see A-LIFE come online. I'm running the game underpowered but I'm still able to hold my own without using perf mods. I'm using GTX 1650 (low-profile), 16gb ram, and an i5-4690K cpu. That being said - It is sadly missing some features introduced in previous games. I have seen the factions, but haven't found a way to meaningfully interract with them. Initial shader cache build is also offensively long, but at least load times are short once you actually get into the game. Patches are also huge, though that's a complaint at the devs, not necessrily the game.

Needs Some Polish But Hella Fun!

Having a great time with this game so far... a few crashes here and there but haven't run in to anything game breaking. Are there bugs that need fixed? Yup! But they have already release a 2nd patch which I'm waiting to download now. The atmosphere and freedom of the open world are great... I dislike games that lead you around by the nose or hem you in to a single path/set of choices to do some thing necessary to the story. Really enjoy the exploration and figuring things out. There are some annoyances with certain monsters that have been improved and could IMO still get some tweaks. Another thing that may be hit or miss with many is that the anomalies should be navigated slowly, takes time yes but I believe that is part of the design. for those review bombing the game, If you are old enough to remember when the original came out is long delayed and still released with dozens of bugs, game breaking and otherwise. At the end of the day is it worth your hard earned money? If you are a fan of the franchise and enjoy open world, FPS, Exploration, Questing, and a dash of Survival/Horror It's a safe bet...

New Generation of Stalker

9/10 Good Old but new Game, some "anomalies" within the engine. Mind you, THIS IS NOT LIKE STALKER GAMMA! It is exactly like a good old Stalker Game, nice gameplay, interesting questline, buggy start for some. Good things: + Nostalgic gameplay with new graphics, animations and overall long desired fixes. +Quests are amazing, both the radiant jobs as well as the main questline. +Gunplay works best, sadly shotguns are not OP anymore. :( +graphics, music, ambience, campfires, all the things I ever wanted in Stalker. <3 +Brutal EVERYTHING. Was Hard back then, is slightly harder now, maybe even slightly unbalanced when it comes to mutants. Bad things: - Some players have problems with some bugs, or "anomalies", within the game, I don't have any major problems except the UE bonus quest not starting. :( - Half the hours spent within the game were wasted on shaders. - A-Life 2.0 feels more like A-Life 1.5 I tried to tweak in old games and managed to break it. Works like 4/10 times as intended, other times it spawns dogs or flesh in my area and wastes my entire ammo. :0 -WHERE IS MY MUTANT SKINNING?? I waste ammo on tanky pigs and can't even earn some koupons selling some radioactive meat? I know they drifted away from this feature back in the day, but many ppl requested mutant skinning, it makes sense to implement it seeing as contracts don't pay much, selling gear is not profitable, and quests pay less than livable wage in the Zone. Overall, amazing game, perfect return to glory for the saga, but some things require tweaking, some patches are already under way, some, like A-Life, require a lot of hard work. Highly recommend this game for all that desire a long hard look in the mirror while crying cuz you died 7 times to a dog in the first 3hrs of gameplay in Lesser Zone.

As of Patch 1.1.1/1.1.2 (Dec. 20, 2024)

As much as I had anticipated a sequel to the original trilogy, I was cautious about buying this game. Then I saw the patch for 1.1 and read what people were saying about the patch. It was convincing enough at that point. I have a 2080 Super, Ryzen 7 3700X, and 16GB of DDR4 RAM for any hardware context. The game has had some technical issues but nothing like I had heard about before. It failed to compile shaders on launch which 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 allowed you to skip if that happened but hasn't happened again. Sometimes while going to an area I wasn't in previously causes massive framerate loss but otherwise it's been stable enough to not be bothersome. It's crashed mid-game once on me, it crashed once or twice before getting into the game. A-Life 2.0 probably still needs updating but enemies don't just spawn in on me for every encounter. I have heard fights in the distance so it seems like it's working on some level. AI having consistently great accuracy despite having beat-up Viper5 SMGs has been my biggest annoyance and caused me to lower the difficulty from whatever the hardest was to the medium one. I'm about 20 hours into the game, doing a bunch of looting and side jobs. I've been to 4 major areas and fully explored about 3 of them as of this review. I enjoy this game a lot and unless the game design gets worse or they stop updating it right now, I don't see how it won't continue to be as fun as it has been. The AI should be challenging but on the hardest difficulty they are far too accurate and perceptive of you and it feels like a chore. As long as the fixes keep coming though, I imagine I'll be playing this for a long time. The cinematic animations and conversations don't feel like they are taking away from your agency to play this like a Stalker looking for loot. They happen for specific interactions and quest moments (usually the main story ones). Will update further if I find qualms with the design but so far, so good for me.
