So far, so good!
The vibes are as they should be, difficulty certainly is and visually it is impressive. Audio is great as well AND it still runs pretty well, without me having to dial down the settings too much. I am pretty sure there will be more stress-testing for the game but as of yet I am very, very pleased and feel young(er) again :D
The only thing I did not like that much was the tutorial and way too heavily scripted intro. I guess there will be more story sections that are like this, but normal gameplay seems oldschool as it should be.
If anything changes over my course of playing, then I might edit the review - but if you like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. then this will make your brain be happy.
