Description

Buying this game will get you both the original version and the Enhanced Edition.


Back to where it all started — the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Trilogy, one of the most visionary and groundbreaking survival first-person-shooters of all time returns. Now upscaled, enhanced must-play journey for a new generation.

 

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky is the prequel chapter of the Legends of the Zone Trilogy. With the ability to directly influence the balance of power through Faction Wars, step into the boots of Scar — a seasoned mercenary, able to somehow survive deadly Emissions. Make your way to the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant through radiation, anomalies, enemies, mutants, and conflict-raging Zone.

 

FACTION WARS

With anomalous activity at unprecedented levels, the Zone trembles under constant instability. Choose your path carefully or play all sides like a true mercenary and directly influence the precarious balance of power within the Zone.

 

UNCHARTED PATHS

Venture into the unknown, uncovering lost territories and secrets in Swamps, Lymansk, the Red Forest. Utilize your arsenal with new weapons and an advanced equipment upgrade system along with innovative artifact hunting mechanics.
 

UNVEIL THE MYSTERIES OF THE PAST

Unravel the deeper secrets connecting directly to the original Shadow of Chornobyl. Witness firsthand events that set the stage for future events, meeting iconic characters and exploring legendary locations as they once were.

 

Enhanced Edition Features:
● Atmospheric visual enhancements including God Rays, Dynamic Screen Space Reflections, and Advanced Global Illumination effects.
● Redesigned water shaders, upgraded skyboxes, and wetness effects.
● Improved visuals with upscaled textures featuring more detailed NPCs and environment.
● Upgraded weapon Field of View and models.
● Multiple bugfixes and quality of life tweaks.
● Full gamepad support.

Good Hunting, stalker!

Чудова покращена версія!

Перше що помітив це те, що зникли фрізи та оптимізація на нових системах та екранах з високою частотою оновлення стала майже ідеальною (якщо порівнювати з оригінальною грою). Картинка загалом стала набагато кращою. Грати тільки почав, але поки враження позитивні. Граю на Лінуксі :)

I like the original version better

Pros: 1. The graphics are significantly improved compared to the original. 2. The frame rate is much smoother than the original. 3. The controls are much better than the original. Cons: 1. The enemy AI is much dumber than the original. This is the result of a recent test of both versions under identical conditions. The enemy AI's field of view has been reduced. The enemy AI's perception has been reset. As a result, the enemies have become dumber. 2. The lighting has been reduced in realism. The original version is more realistic. 3. The sound has been reduced in realism. The original version is more realistic. 4. The campground atmosphere is lacking compared to the original. The original version has more chatter and more natural actions. Conclusion: It doesn't quite replicate the realistic atmosphere of the original. But everything is free. It offers better graphics and a faster frame rate. Thanks for offering it for free. If you want more realism, I recommend buying the original version. However, if graphics, frame rate, and control are important to you, the improved version is better. Comparing the two, I find the original version to be more enjoyable and enjoyable.

Censorship

1 star for censorship. plus 1 star for they game me this game for free. Glory to Ukraine but censorship has no place in gaming even if I get the sentiment. I can't in good faith recommend an inferior product, get the original instead while it's not delisted

Inferior version

I was excited for remaster (I already owned original, so I got it for free), even if it meant small changes, bug fixes etc. but removing language I played original S.T.A.L.K.E.R. in is a deal breaker for me, making it inferior version. I'm glad they at least kept original versions, so you can freely choose which one to install, unlike few other remakes/remasters, so at least you can freely choose.
