While im writing this review im drinking some vodka здоров'я. Alright so far so good im having a blast with it even if the mutant seems to be very very much stronger than in the older stalker game, it make them more dangerous and scarier. Beside that I have no complain on my behalf. This game as alot to offer gameplay wise and story wise. Im playing this on a decent computer on 1440p epic high setting NO DLSS averaging 50-60 fps when exploring fighting, only when I talk to npc sometime the game will drop to 30fps but i blame UE5 ray tracing. Im happy regardless of not having 100fps+, it will come the time when the game will received enough update that it will make the game run better on everyone system. Anyway best way to play the game would be to just go in the zone with 0 knowledge of what you should do or what choice you need to make. Happy Hunting Stalker.

30 hours later I encounter alot of quest that are bugged and they need to fix it real quick. The A-Life 2.0 is not real they just spawn in front of you. The mutant have a zone that wont step out and are easy to cheese when you find that sweet spot they stop attacking you and stand around. Another problem is the render view is quite low theres is a achievement for a 75m headshot kill but I dont see how thats possible when they dont render npc at least from 10m in front of the player I wish I could snipe enemy from long distance but they dont seems to happen in my 30hours of gameplay. Another things is that I want them to put in the game is the faction system, it was always big in previous stalker where they show the allies the enemy of each faction whos at war etc etc... I feel what they made with the story is interesting but beside that the zone need to be interessting too. Ill leave my positive review in hope that the game will be patch and be polish because they put alot in this game in the state it is it would be a shame if they just left it be.

Ive beaten the game after 50 hours siding with Strelok. On 1.0 version. Now the 1.0.2 seems to have solve alot of issue concerning the NPC spawn and quest related bug which im happy to see. Now im waiting for the multiplayer so I can lure some new player in some anomalies hehe. Beside that im very happy to have played this game on the version 1.0 and beaten it, there is no breaking bug that doesnt let you finish the game these are false statement, sure there are some bug that will make you reload a save but nothing that break the game. Version 1.0 can be beaten easily, now with thoses recent patch its even more enjoyable for everyone. oh yeah they kinda fix the spawn issue where now the npc are spawning further giving the impression they came from somewhere and not just from nowhere so thats cool.
