Hey everyone. Hope you all had a good week and relaxing weekend. I actually didn’t game much this weekend as I was preparing to move apartments and also went on a weekend trip with friends, but I did squeeze in some Xcom 2 today. Hope everyone has a productive week.
GAMMA was my first Stalker game. I’ve spent probably a hundred hours in it and would still only consider myself a beginner. Stalker 2 was such a let down coming out of GAMMA, I un-installed 2 after maybe 10 hours and immediately reinstalled GAMMA.
Thats fair, at release 2 was pretty rough but its gotten significantly better, and will continue to do so. What specifically didnt you like about it?
I think the gunsmithing, crafting, base building, scarcity, and survival elements are what sets GAMMA apart. The Zone feels a lot more alive and punishing.
I love the setting and atmosphere too, I just think GAMMA does it so much better.
Thats fair I feel like progressing in Gamma will be way way harder than in Stalker 2. Also, have you read Roadside picnic the old Soviet boom Stalker was based on?
