Is it ok to start with Stalker 2 when I haven't played the others?
Am I going to miss story elements or anything major?

Yes, it's ok. You're gonna miss some story bits, but you'll understand the bigger picture anyway.

I never played them and I'm enjoying it for the most part. Not sure why anyone would come to this place to live.

Okay! I'll keep the game on my wishlist, then, if I can clear some of my backlog, I'll buy Stalker 2!

you can but id advise playing the first 3 first.
just because this game needs fixes as theres some fundamental things not working as expected right now. bonus is that you get all the background lore in

Well, they certainly didn't come here to enjoy their time away from their usual family stuff.

Spoiler: There are valuable artifacts, Monolith protects the wish granter, Military is there to control the border, Ecologists wants to study the Zone, Duty wants to destroy it etc.

I played all 3 Games, before Stalker 2, and it is Awsome, every 2 min when i started i was like "OH I WAS THERE BEFORE" and "OH wait i know that guy he was there in the Older Games, oh awsome" and the last "oh That ending is Canon now" it is realy Cool. i can say that if you dont Care about the Background so mutch and dont minde the Bugs Buy Stalker 2 it is OK else wait. For A Real Stalker Fan Stalker 2 is a Must Have it is cool and the game is a lot of Fun

With the warning that SoC is the most painful to play in terms of difficulty. Clear Sky is the prequel. And CoP is the americanized mcdonalds meal version of stalker.

Thanks for all the help, guys, I'll buy the original 3 games when the steam sale hits.

Good Choice untill then Get the Anomaly Mod, it is Free and you dont need the Base Game. or watch some Videos, Anomaly is peek Stalker

I would rather play the first Games. They are way better with Stalker 2 current state.
