Should I get STALKER?

yes get clear skys

>>386726890
How about the other two?

>>386727023
Clear Sky is the more playable one. If you're not into the game when you finish clear Sky then you would have saved money.

>>386726890
>>386727051
why the fuck are you lying to him like that??

Clear Sky if you just want a shooter

SoC or Call of Pripyat if you want more depth and world building

Get all of them. If you can only get one, get CoP cause it's the best one.

>>386726815
Yes, make sure to get the complete mod especially for clear sky. Shadow of Chernobyl is much better with it as well, but not strictly necessary. Call of Pripyat is the one in the series that doesn't really need any mods, but complete still fixes a lot of little things.

After that try some of the other mods for a different experience. There are loads of them out there that will increase the challenge immensely for veteran players.

You don't get STALKER man STALKER gets you

I'm generally a huge casual but I found all three Stalker games to be fun and immersive as fuck

>>386728752
(you)

Get metro 2033 it's pretty much the same game but modern graphics

>>386729302
Nah, I already read the books

>>386729302
Super not this omg this couldn't be further from the truth.

Also don't buy any of them. Just go straight to call of chernobyl and make your own legacy in the zone.

>>386729302
Stalker looks pretty good even today and is an overall better game.

>>386726815
Head on over to >>>/vg/sg
They have a helpful beginners guide to STALKER. You can't go wrong.

>>386729302
Not true, have you even played Stalker?

>>386729432
>he doesn't know it's been dead for months

>>386729596
Oh fuck where have I been sending newstalkers.

>>386726815
Pirate all three
Play all three as vanilla first
Get Call of Chernobyl or other mods afterwards
Have fun

>>386728628
This. Get CoP then install Call of Chernobyl. It's the entire STALKER series stitched together but without the story or plot to follow. It's a fun free roam mod.

>>386729816
at this point it's the subpebbit or Russian forums

you can just pirate them all with a clean consicious, the company went under and thus get nothing from the sales.

>>386731323
they are back though, but the main guy doesn't want to make another cause he doesn't see how it would be make money.

he's right

SoC > CoP

Vanilla is the ultimate redpill.

SoC > CoP > CS

you know it to be true

>>386729302

I fell for buying 2033 redux on sale.
I didn't expect a linear as fuck game with a boring plot and mediocre gunplay but that's what I got

Yes so that you can pray to the monolith

>>386726815
If you can only get one get Shadow of Chernobyl, that's the first one and the best one don't trust these lying faggots around here

>>386726815
Nothing is stopping you from pirating the games and giving them a try.

>>386726815
Y.E.S.

>>386729302
I liked metro, but you're so full of shit.

>>386726815

>>386726815
Yes, if you like challenge and great atmosphere.

Consult this Starting Guide,
then see the /vg/'s huge Stalker General for more tips and links: >>>/vg/stalker

Play in the release order. Start with no mods - only latest patch, OR get the full "Starter Pack" first; these contain bug-fixers and light visual mods that can help performance as well.
Leave big overhauls for later playthrougs. Avoid the "Complete" -mods. Always play on MASTER difficulty for best realism and atmosphere, and disable crosshair.

Don't give up in the beginning! The starting gear sucks ass and first area can be a bit boring.

>>386726890
>>386727051
yes, he should also play CS. But as 2nd game, which it is.

>>386728752
Complete mods are obsolete, casual as fuck, and especially in case of CS, it's also totally BROKEN.
I don't know why people even joke about using Complete mods this day and age. The Starter-Packs are the REAL "vanilla 2.0" experiences, that do not add or change anything.

>>386726815
CoP is one of best open world shooter executions ever made, SHoC story is suprisingly awesome, CoP is story supplement for SHoC. Every single one of those games have unique, well-executed atmosphere and fun gunplay.

SHoC and CP are kinda infantile in small details, but i'm sure you'll get over it.

>>386726815
Yes and play them in release order with beginner friendly mods from >>386738354 pic

>friend can't get past the first mission

FUCK

>>386739679
what, in shoc? like, resucing guy from bandits?

as many people before probably stated, game makes enemies bullet sponges unless you set it on either super easy or veteran. maybe that's the problem. If not, good old savescumming should help.

>game makes enemies bullet sponges unless you set it on either super easy or veteran
it actually doesn't, stop repeating it ffs

>>386739854
Nah, thats all just bullshit excuses GenZ kids say, because they cannot admit that they suck at REAL games.

Don't buy it, it's too scary. I bought it and couldn't play it more than 30 minutes before getting extremely scared. Don't fall for the bait.

stalker like game for ps4 - does it exist?

>>386741818
stalker engine development started back where shaders still weren't exactly a thing. you can run it on whatever you're posting from as long as it has x86 cpu and gpu newer than gf2mx.

>>386741818
No.

>>386739854
no, not it doesnt, you can easily clear the first building lot out and take no damage, just gotta be sneaky
