This game does not deserve a 3.4/5 rating. It borrows elements from Darkwood, Subnautica, Stalker, and Metro 2033, and I think they did a fine job. My only problems with the game is it is way too talky (diaglogue diarrhea is the curse of all modern video games, now) and using herbs and mushrooms to craft gun parts and body armor is just plain silly. It's more polished than a lot of Eurojank games I've played, and the Russian language with English subtitles is an amazing feature. Voice acting is always better in a foreign language, haha (gotta love those Tarkovsky films). Anyway, gun customization is an awesome feature, and I highly recommend getting the thermal vision for your rifle as fast as possible, because the enemy is extremely camouflaged, which only makes since in an overgrown suburban ghost town. It's not Stalker, but I like it way more than Metro 2033 (the game, not the book which is actually good). The timed missions are no different from the AtmosFear mods from the Stalker community (instead of radiation storms you have to find shelter and hide from the Nemesis.) Finding Stalker comrades and making a comfortable base for them to live in is reminiscent of the Sims with a very small tinge of X-com:EU on the side for mission assignments. AMD FSR mode is definitely a plus, as it greatly improved my performance. Menu navigation is terrible, but you get use to it over time. Base building is console friendly which means its like No Man's Sky awful navigation system. Would have been nice to have a mincraft menu layout instead, or a Stalker click and drag system. Mouse and Keyboard must be passe to developers now days. But yes, this game is a ton of fun and I really, really enjoy it once you tune out the endless dialogue, switch the voice acting to Russian, and learn how to menu navigate. 5/5 for fun factor, because this game does rock!

Awesome game, very unique by its combination of genres. Its biggest flaw is its level design, kinda boring and somehow annoying but you should not prevent you from enjoying the game!

The Single Biggest BANE of Gaming is Timed missions! Second Biggest is Lack of Manual Saves and dumb auto save system This game has BOTH! PLEASE add an option to disable time limits [of course its better if you remove them outright from the game, [NO ONE WANTS THEM], also allow us to save everywhere as much as we want this not Dark Souls!

Игра была гораздо интереснее в альфе. А на релизе жестокое надувательство. Внимания заслуживает только озвучка и диалоги. И то не всегда.

The game gets tedious very quickly. I’ve spent roughly 5 hours playing and I already feel like I’ve discovered all there is to know. Such a shame as the game previews show a completely different experience than you’ll actually find yourself playing.
