I had a great time with this game. I was very skeptical that the devs could get a new stalker game "right", but they definitely did. I can tell you this cause I have hundreds of hours across all previous games and their mods. There are certainly things to complain about without considering the afore mentioned techincal difficulties, but lets just say you wont be disatisfied with the game itself as it keept me hooked throughout the 100 hours it took to beat. The problems that stand out the most are indeed the techincal ones. The specs are really high, graphics settings dont seem to matter to much both in visuals or performance and it feels like optimization has been thown out the window in favor of just having DLSS and FSR. But I would argue the biggest problem is the input lag, which so far seems impossible to fix. This makes it really hard to aim, which is obviously important in a tactical first person shooter. While during the majority of the game its manageble, during some sections it makes the game incredibly frustrating and borderline uplayable. The difficulty during these sections then come entirely not from the gameplay itself, but from the bad performance. Will this or even can this be fixed by the developers? I don't know, but I do know that I still like this game for what it is right now, and if you are eager to try it I don't think you will be dissapointed!
