Don't get wrong I enjoy both but they're nothing alike.
Lucky those game journalists are in stress test right now.
It is obvious that you do not know anything by comparing apples and pears with each other.
I have played them though, don't get me wrong, it's just it took me a while to come to the realization that Bethesda is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ joke.
As for OP, like the others have said, it won't.
Fallout is by default an RPG - whether it's a good RPG or a bad one depends on which entry you focus on with 76 being arguably the worst and New Vegas being the best and that's excluding Fallouts 1, 2 and Tactics since those are from a completely different era. Stalker is an FPS with survival and horror elements.
The only thing that make the two similar are the post-apocalyptic theme, both are played from first person and both are shooters to some degree (Fallout lets you do melee, Stalker has a single, fairly useless knife - unless we count some mods like Anomaly which adds a couple more knives and even axes).
Stalker has very few if any RPG mechanics, while also being much less of a chore as a shooter (I'm talking about the infamous Bethesda damage sponges that are a thing in basically all their games - bandits soaking up 20 shots from a railgun like it's nothing kinda stuff).
So yes, yes it will. In ways people will never want to admit-
Oh no. Preston can't aim down to kill a legless ghoul. Just like duty NPCs can't aim down with an LMG to kill a couple hamsters sprinting down the railroad tracks! It is all coming back!
Magical damage sponge humans are also around in stalker. But stalker also wants you to be able to hit things from farther away even with the trash early game guns that will veer off at 45 degrees on semi auto or climb into the sky even with -300% recoil mods. While much like fallout, a later game gun will be allowed to full auto headshot even if you find it half broken in a ditch, just because "more expensive = gooder"
When you see people hyping up the GP37 or FT200m in stalker, it is because you can drill a whole magazine into a skull EZ with them compared to any fully upgraded AK clone.
Both franchise fanbase are obsessed with flip flopping between "Ugh, unique named variant is OP" and "You deserve to not kill them with headshots because you didn't use the unique named variant!"
Fallout is also running on an engine that makes the X-Ray of the old stalker games feel modern.
