Bom
Все круто. Рад что не добавили русскую озвучку
MY pC freeze and i have the newest system.... This game SUCKS
Jogo muito bom, muito gostoso de jogar
Жестко, Ебнутая бродилка
Runs like complete ♥♥♥♥, AI and targeting is awful, atrocious and questionable design of in game features, but I just want to play a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stalker 2. EDIT: This game is actually abysmal, the devs have completely half assed the entire development of this game. The AI is so pathetically bad, totally lied about their Alife 2.0. Then the unstability is actually horrid, why are my frames completely crashing to 5 minutes per frame every time I get near a shelter, and I even see character models start freaking out. Shame for releasing such a unfurnished POS and failing to do anything about it even two years later. Disgusting
needs mods to be good but fun once you do have them!
great game, long storyline.
Hard but worth it!
