Blurry, cut content, runs well
A pretty by-the-book remaster. It does run better without any kind of tweaking than the vanilla version (which struggles to maintain a stable FPS >60 on new machines). Water is re-done and looks much better, the lighting is... different, noticeably darker, more contrast-y. The vibe of some scenes is different as a result. Not better or worse, but different. It is noticeably blurry - I mostly fixed it by turning on FSR Native and cranking up sharpness to maximum. Ultrawide resolution works out of the box, but is wonky - feels like the camera is moved back as you increase the FOV so you end up bumping into things more. Controller support works too, but the aiming sensitivity feels off but it is more playable than the originals ever were. A lot of mods don't work out of the box now, you will need to go and do some tweaking. If you want to mod, you should use the original releases or just get Anomaly. This is to give you an opportunity to play the original games as they were meant to appear on release. However, I do want to point out that there is some censorship and cut content. Firstly, the Russian dub is entirely absent. I am sure it can be re-introduced by mods, but the devs did make the decision to remove it for obvious war-related reasons. Ukrainian dub is very similar (same actors), and if you can't speak Russian or Ukrainian and just want the atmosphere then it will do the job just as well. It might be a problem if you can only speak Russian because there are no subtitles for some in-game dialogues. I am fine with playing in either Ukrainian or English, so not a dealbreaker. Some references to the Soviet Union have been removed too - very subtle, you would probably not notice. Stuff like Lenin's picture on posters, etc. Again, not a dealbreaker, but something to note. All in all, I think the originals can be made to play and look better with mods, but out of the box this is the easiest way to enjoy Stalker. Decent + free for existing owners, so 3.5/5 from me
