Why I prefer ShoC to ANOMALY

[Vuyek]

Alife.

In Anomaly, ALL animals attack you the player as a priority.
In ShoC, I felt like as if I was in a nature documentary, AI attacked each other, fought and chased each other, and I even saw a bloodsucker feeding on an animal.

In ANOMALY a dog pack and a bloodsucker teamed up to take me out.
No thanks.

Now that you mention it. Yeah, you're kinda right. I never really noticed that because I play stalker more like a shooter than an immersive experience.

i like anomaly more because i get a FOV CHOICE

and also i like killing animals for a living

Not true, at night vanilla SoC will spawn waves of animals that will attack you and ignore each other, bloodsuckers, blind dogs, you name it, they will come after you, specially near transition points between two areas.

yes it is true

also, what you describe is a special scripted scene when you go to the Duty city

Not true, not scripted. In vanilla happens at night between areas, can happen between Cordon and Garbage or Rostok and Wild Territory, etc... Stay near a transition point and waves of different enemies will spawn, I have even experienced bandits spawning with bloodsuckers and dogs.

Wow, FOV regulator in settings, bravo!
Really? You preffer fov choice instead of normal work ALife?

[Vuyek]

to be fair, ANOMALY is great, is free, and the ALife behavior of them focusing EXCLUSIVELY on the player is the only thing I dislike
