Only other time you get to enjoy a single player shooter these days would be if Ubisoft made another shitty far cry game. This is a no brainer.

Flight sim the day before means I probably won't be playing this until after christmas.
 
I never played the previous games in the series since I’ve never really been a PC gamer, but I can’t wait to try this out! Looks awesome!

How hard is it? Any word on difficulty levels, if that’s a thing? I’ve never played the STALKER games. (I respect titles but fuck those periods lol.)

There will be difficulty levels, likely the same as in the originals. Master is where it's at if you want the full Zone experience.

I blame 2 things:
The war... I am polish. I don't want anything to do and I can't stand the atmosphere of eastern conflict anymore.
Xbox

You know it's also releasing on PC? Bulk of the playerbase is there, and it's #4 in the Steam best sellers chart now. Also pretty high on wishlists.
 
Is there zero hype for this game here ?

I'm hyped as fuck, First Stalker game for me, seems so cool to visit Chernobyl, you don't get many opportunities to see this setting, i only played the one level in Call of Duty iirc, other then that i skipped the previous Stalker games so i'm very excited to finally play, will also rewatch the Chernobyl mini series to further immerse myself.
 
You been hanging out here much lately?

IMO there is t hype for anything really, just a sad desperation for everything to fail/flop.

See:
  • SW Outlaws
  • Veilguard
  • PS5 Pro
  • Concord
  • Anything Horizon
  • AC Shadows
Not a lot of positivity about gaming around here these days.
Add entire Xbox + half the gaming industry there.

Wednesday I should have it downloaded on PC Gamepass unless Microsoft xbox app goes all wonky. It's known to do that from time to time.

Apparently STALKER: Spirit of Chornobyl is on PS5. Looks like I'm gonna start there. Any tips for a first timer?

If it is like the first games, I will wait one more year for the patches to make the game playable. Also, they aren't saying enough about the story; I have already explored the zone, I have already visited the central and found its secrets--one of the best moments in the first game is when the path to pripyat is finally open and all the stalkers are rushing towards the central. The hype was real-- i need plot, i need a solid main quest but the only thing they said so far is "an epic story".

Downloaded the first STALKER and got my console mods loaded up. Any pros have advice before I jump in tonight?
