One of the buggiest games of all time also happened to be one of the greatest.
1.Atmosphere. stalker is famous for it's atmosphere and even people who don't like this game agree that this game has a great atmosphere.
you completely feel like a lonely man that can't trust anyone except his skills. you can't even trust your guns. because the may get jammed during the heat of battle. this game completely delivers the feeling that the zone is a dangerous place. this game can scare you in some moments
2. this game has very good graphics that you can run it even on weak PC's.{ like myself}. but if you have a strong PC, you can enjoy the zone's
horrifying vista.
3. ambiance sound effects are awesome. you can hear screams of others, roars of radiated dogs, sound effects have a very high influence to turn
stalker to one of the most atmospheric games of the decade.
4.Game-play is designed for hard core FPS gamers. because it's complicated and hard. but it's very enjoyable too. you can't run and gun in this game,
you must use your brain, it's about rationing ammo and supplies. you can't carry many things. you must understand the pros and cons of guns
and carry only the things that you find useful. especially in harder difficulties, you must completely feel yourself as marked one { main character in the game}
5. it's true that story is a little odd and sometimes makes you feel dizzy, but it is a great enchantment to make this game even more enjoyable.
6. This game delivers RPG elements like bartering, open-ended world, talking with NPC's and getting side-quests pretty good.
7. One of the best AI's in FPS history.
{-}:
1. bugs, bugs and bugs. this game is one of the buggiest games of all time. sometimes, bugs truly makes you feel confused and disappointed.
2. game-play is unbalanced. it means at first, you can hardly get pass a radiated blind dog. it's very annoying and this is the reason that many people call this game a trash and throw it away.
3. this game is awful at first and one of the hardest games to get into, but after you get into it, you experience a game that you may not forget. even if you don't like it.
4. There isn't much voice acting except for certain { and few } characters. of course, it's not needed for this game imo.
5. this game has seven endings and all seven of them are highly odd.
6. you must walk long distances with foot and lack of stamina is highly annoying. {except for the time that you will get an artifact that solve this problem. but by that time, it's middle of the game.}
7.at some points, because the lack of content and enemy, game gets a little boring. but that's nothing very bad. because the zone itself is always fresh and live.
Last word: this game is one of my top 10 for sure, but it can't be recommended to everyone.
Stalker is a Worthy treasure that is hidden beneath a lot of mud and dust. one must pass all this mud and dust to reach the treasure,
