Insanely Disappointed!
I've played some broken games.
I've played Early Access games.....
BUT THIS IS SO BROKEN IT SHOULDN'T OF BEEN RELEASED!!

I don't know about anyone else, but i have way to many issues (cant refund now though)

99% of the npcs don't sound even close to Russian / Ukrainian... they're English + Irish + Scottish , even Mexican i swear! all thrown in and mixed!!!

The constant compiling shaders BS every-time i load in crashes 9/10 times, i know its not on my end i have a decent PC, not a toaster!

The sounds are horrid.
The enemies are practically bullet proof.
Traders have next to nothing, i get its a survival game and all, but seriously!!

I can see the potential this game has, but needs a hell of a lot of work to fix it.

This can be solved by playing with Ukrainian dubbing and translated subtitles.

Oh, they definitely sound Ukrainian... Ukrainians trying to do English, Irish, Scottish and American accents. If my country ever ends up in a war with Ukrainians the sign and countersign will be so easy to determine because they struggle on so many words. lol

so you spent like... 10-15 minutes actually playing the game and because you had computer troubles that means its a bad game. right.

I think the devs had to release by XMAS as they needed to hit financial targets, the studio that made this game have contracts and investors, big bills to pay, they knew the game was broken and they didnt have the time to delay the game anymore as 2025 has a lot of releases coming

So it was release it as is and patch repair as you go along, its a shame that 99% of the players including console gamers experienced massive game breaking bugs

The bugs I got was broken side missions not completing, memory leaks and crashes in Rostock and near anomalies

Other than that its an enjoyable game but it still needs a lot of fixing.

Dont forget the massive CyberPunk took near like a year to fix

I hope we dont get this with the major titles that are incoming for 2025, actually historically speaking the following games in the past have never released with game breaking bugs.

Assassins Creed Shadows
GTA6
Doom
Borderlands 4
Mafia: The Old Country

I spent more than the allotted 2 hours to return and still was not able to bind keys correctly. I have NEVER returned any game and loved other Stalkers. What I liked most about them is I could actually bind my keys to make the game feel natural to my movement. Stalker 2 says no - we chose the way to play and you must adapt to it. Classic console practice.

I did not realize that the 2 hours spent in the menu counted as actual " gameplay ". That is is some seriously shady stuff right there. If the game wasn't broken I would not be in the menu but .5 hr and would at least have 1.5 hours to continue being a beta tester unbeknownst to me.

It's funny that some players actually believe that by having a potato PC = potato game smdh. It's a YOU problem, bud.
