>>695179867Lurk at least 1 year before posting. Alternatively: Go back.
Gosh I sure do miss stalker threads from 10+ years ago
>>695180361/v/ didn't exist in 2002 retard
>>695179867Yes
I never hated Stalker>>695180468anon..
>>695179867I never played it, in fact i never jumped into any bandwagon game like amnesia staker, thiaf, mafia and such.
>>695179867>people start talking about a game they enjoy when a new game in that series comes outOP is a retard, nothing new.
SoC was great overallCS was ok and never really grabbed meSoC was also great but I got mad and dropped it when I had like 3 quests become uncompletable due to bugs in a row.
>>695180361Unironically the first thread I ever went on /v/ for was a stalker thread in 2014.The thumbnail made it look like some /x/ type shit which piqued my interest.
Autumn Aurora 2 for SoC made me love STALKER. Every other vanilla game or mod I've tried has been off in some way or another.
>>695179867i didnt really enjoy stalker
>>695179867>aim at enemy>shoot>nothing happensNo it was shit.
>>695180468this anon needs serious therapy
Is the new game any good? Haven't seen anything about it since they tried to do NFTs way back when.
>>695187658it's more or less just like it was playing the old games. i'm really, really liking the game
>>695179867Its the only game slavshits have going for them
I always disliked STALKER, the games were way too european jank for their own good. HOWEVER, i will not deny that SOC was part of /v/'s untouchable list alongside games like Planescape Torment and Deus Ex. I think what we're seeing here is a lot of retard armchair geopolitics majors that hate Ukraine over weird reasons (same retards didn't even know Ukraine existed before the war) talking shit because their board of choice disagrees with them (/k/ and /int/), advocating genocide from their gay as fuck chink made ''gamer chairs''it's sad that you guys treat wars in europe like they're sports teams you can back, but whatever, that's the result of a good society where our biggest fears are the prices of chicken going up by a dollar rather than people 2km away using missiles on us. t. australian
>>695179927>Shadow of Chernobyl was the only good Stalker game>dissing Call of Pripyat like thatBOOOOO
>>695187658If you liked original jank of stalker, then you probably will like this game
>>695179927*Chornobyl
>>695187724Yeah but how does it run?I'm working with pic related.
>>695179867I thought this was cropped SFM porn then I realized it was just S.
>>695179867>Cheeki Breeki my fellow STALKERS
>>695179867No one ever liked it It was a cult game because only turbo autistic retards who were into gas masks and communists had the aspergers level high enough to make the game work.
>>695179867>he isn't staring at the cameraSpooky
>>695188208eastern euro games, or slav jank as they are known, all follow the same themes. >decay>rain>emptiness>corrupt officials>broken code that you have to find a work around for but the work around is in some cyrillic moon rune language because potato people cant read they only understand symbols>time (bonus points if you get a boss battle with chronos)
>>695179867I've always loved Stalker. GAMMA is by far my favorite one.
>>695189050COP feels kinda empty and bandits aren't even hostile meaning you mostly fight mutants.
>>695188208>it's sad that you guys treat wars in europe like they're sports teams you can back,For the kind of guy you described, it isn't even a matter of supporting a sport team over another. It's just a matter of picking whichever side makes you the most edgy.
>>695197589All war is badWars over nothing with no objective and no goals are the worst, yet they make the most profit.
Vanilla Stalker has always been garbage
>>695179867You'll never get an honest answer cause of the stupid fucking war and all the bots and discord faggots who constantly astroturf
>>695179867That fucking starting pistol filtered millions.
>>695198334Bro all the old fags have told you the answer.SoC was a staple meme game before memes existed >get out of here stalker>blow out soon friend>ask the monolith>easy mode>bandit guitar The new one aint even close to that sweet spot between "unplayable garbage" and "cozy kino"
>>695196537
>>695194327This, so much this.
>>695179867I actually do remember that people were infact calling the original shit because of how bad the starting weapons were for each game. /v/ is just full of people who came here during elections and never left, and these people only think in 1/10 or 10/10s with nothing in between, where any fault or percieved sleight has them take to the internet to shit about it while smirking because they feel smart for thinking they got one over on something. They defer to whatever other anons are saying for their opinions on everything and mold their life around what /v/ deems acceptable.The internet fucking sucks now.
>>695179867It's a political thing now, and /v/ has been /pol/ branch board for quite a while.
>>695179927Fuck off Mandalore
>>695199078>The internet fucking sucks now.Yeah.
