Chuckled at filename. Stalker 2 sucked though so Metro I guess.

stalker 2 looked like shit the whole development process and while bad was nowhere as bad as i expected it to be. i expected a vaporware trainwreck.
metro also looks like shit but maybe i can still have fun despite that.

>>737076314
Is STALKER 2 worth playing yet? I'm not looking for something beyond a vanilla Call of Pripyat experience.

Did anyone play the VR Metro game? Is it worth playing? I can never tell with VR reviews, they say everything is great.

They've been patching it for a while now, still adding things that should have been there at the very beginning. I think the game's biggest flaw is that it turns into a jogging simulator where you run from objective to objective in the Zone, just sprinting in a straight line to the next side/story mission. Because they went full open world and increased the overall map size of the zone, you'll just be running around an empty Zone for much of your playthrough.

Late game stalker enemies have the same issue they do in every other Stalker, they just become comically tanky and sometimes require multiple headshots to be put down. I actually think it's worse in Stalker 2 than the original three games when it comes to endgame fights.

Why are you fags always arguing "which way" when you can genuinely just have both? I've played all of STALKER 1 and it's expansions, and I've played all of STALKER 2 as well. And guess what?! I've played Metro 1 2 and 3 as well.

They're all good, fun, games. Metro is my personal pick because I enjoy the more linear nature of it, but that's just me. Both games are full of things to do, fun to have, and challenges (on their hardest difficulties). It's so tiresome hearing THIS ONE IS BETTER, NO THIS ONE, DURR NO THIS ONE. Shut the fuck up

Stalker is the better game despite ripping off most of the concepts from the metro books. I liked the original version of Metro 2033 but the remake changed the voice acting for some reason and the sequels played like western console games.

Anomaly is not multiplayer, it's not an extraction shooter and is a fork of CoC which existed years before Tarkov was a thing.
It has nothing in common with Trakov at all apart from having guns and being in a slav shithole so Half Life 2 is now a Tarkov clone too huh?

Any game with hardcore survival elements and heavy gun customization = tarkov. Thing is that I can somewhat understand where the comparison is coming from, anomaly does feel like it leans towards that heavy grind aspect youd expect from those kinds of games. It's a fundamentally different kind of experience from vanilla stalker. Vanilla is a lot more arcadey then people want to admit with certain artifacts

just pirate it.
even then its actually worth your money, i will genuinely back up silverfish shilling. it has more content than any game in the original stalker trilogy, my first playthrough was like 30-40 hours, and theres replay potential even when its unfinished.

Way more meaningful weapon variety than stalker games too, theres way more crazy hidden secrets to find in the vast areas, you stumble across some crazy shit in places that seemed empty, it does a really good balance of "most places arent special and theres a lot of nothingburgers but if you explore you come across crazy shit and dungeons". It might feel a little aimless at first because it doesnt instantly give you a direction/goal, but theres so much shit to find. The artifacts are way more interesting and fleshed out too (pic related is me at the very end of the game)
> and being one of the few furry indie games
i genuinely used to believe it was cosmically impossible for a furry game to not be dogshit and have actually good gameplay. Silverfish proved me wrong

>>737085738
So heavy. She put out a scene with her husband, and she's lactating. He sucks on her titties while she gives him a handy. He cums almost immediately.

>>737087232
Its 30 dollars, but your first playthrough of it lasts long enough that you could play SoC, Clear Sky, and a little bit of CoP in that time. And considering its unfinished, its going to be massive.

>>737087458
alright bro, you're making a convincing argument for how much content the game has, so I will wishlist it and wait for it to be done since I have not yet played Stalker and Metro games. I do have both trilogies on Steam, just don't know when I will get around them

>does it not have an ending?
The dev wants to focus on the core gameplay first before finishing the main quest.
Right now it has an unfinished main quest. The game does not instantly give it to you and you are expected to stumble upon it. It also shows some signs of different routes/nonlinearity near the end, like you get one or two choices for something important
Honestly i have faith in the early access because this guy is a real proper game developer, he put out a finished effortful game before, and he is currently getting way more sales/funding than he expected
>>737087914
I honestly recommend playing stalker before playing Silverfish. Playing silverfish before stalker will be a rough transition. You will appreciate both stalker and silverfish more if you play the og trilogy first, i think

As for metro, i think the one really important thing is that you play the original version of 2033 instead of the Redux version. The redux version for last light is basically the same game, but for 2033 its very different, and if you ask me, the OG is the peak of metro. I can sperg out all the changes to you if youd like

>>737088160
are you talking about the wrong game? Silverfish quite literally does not have an ending, what are you sperging about
It does technically have an "ending" where you pay off all your debt and escape the zone, but thats not the actual end of the main quest. Its not even supposed to be a real meaningful thing, because you cannot reach that without boring levels of grinding. Debt is supposed to be cleared by massive blows such as the 1 million you get from the drill piece, not by painstakingly farming, and theres not much content that takes a chunk out of your debt right now so its nowhere near enough.

>>737086293
Sorry, it genuinely does look interesting as a game... but I am a terminally online millennial, and for my demographic, the side you picked in the 00s Furry Wars, is what you stick with. It's like what I imagine Bosnians and Serbians feel towards each other.

Yeah nah its a huge gameplay change. Its essentially last-lightifying the original game, and last light is admitedly a very different game with lots of consolitis and quite a few dumbed down mechanics. it has its qualities though
And just for clariifcation, theres nothing wrong with the redux version of Last Light, though the complete edition is newer

I think the Enhanced edition of exodus is mostly just a graphics difference with some raytracing autism. Youre probably better off looking up comparisons and judging yourself

>>737076486
Its fine if you are kind of in it for the story, that shit has never mattered that much to me and if you are just looking for the best gameplay experience I will always just recommend modding Anomaly since modding for 2 is and will always be abysmal dogshit thanks to being on the cucked UE5 platform

I like both series.
Yet the whole A-Life faction warfare is the reason i preferred STALKER and that does exist in the 2nd game now.
Are 4A sitll using their inhouse engine or did they go with Unreal? the Enhanced Edition of Metro Exodus still looks really good and is an awesome technical showcase for lighting and graphics in general. Unlike Unreal shit that looks ugly as sin regardless of the game.

Tainted by default.
These games in pic rel are the only games with potential as it stands, and maybe tunguska 2 although thats just stalker themed fallout.
However i might be giving too much credit to one of them for namesake development credentials.
I don't understand how furries don't think their games are ugly as sin. It's like how a lackluster story for a game can either make or break it. I don't expect the best writing in a stalker kind of survival game but do i want to be immersed in the world. And i can't do that with anthropomorphic crap happening. I did play Silverfish and whilst enjoying it at times the immersion factor was harmed significantly. Not necessarily because it looks like roblox but because of what I'm complaining about. I enjoyed Into the Radius as a stalker clone. Wasn't bad although a little far off what the ideal game should have been. Disliked Misery the indie game.

Do you understand the audience of Metro series? The series where Russian people are troglodytes, living as rats under the earth slowly dying due to fear of the outside world nearly entirely perpetuated by remnants of the Soviet government gone (even more) mad with power, using any means necessary to hold on to whatever sliver of control over others they can retain? There's a reason the author is considered a wanted felon in the Russian federation.

maybe you can lecture the author of the books on who his audience is next

>>737084898
>Do these absole retards not understand their audience
Communists play stalker games? is that who the soviet symbology is for? I just assumed it to be an innocuous hardcore survival game. Or perhaps i missed some deeper meaning in the lore.
Or is it just east euros because they get teary eyed patriotic chekists on the occasion? I'd buy that being the case because i still believe in stereotypes about east Europeans in general. Even the germans had a stasi informer chancellor ruling the country for many years that was cozy with Putin. Thus they probably still see all of that shit with a lot of pride. And slavs are more likely to play games that come out of their side of the world.

Metro. I expect the game to be playable from a perspective pov not an un-optimized mess like stalker 2

>>737107007
Not so fast. It's current year bro, most games release an unoptimized mess nowadays.

>>737107696
They've been using their own engine for years and didn't take the UE5 pill. That alone gives it much higher chances of success.

Metro exodus ruined what made the games fun

>but not in the underground where you have to travel between stations and find routes overland and bypass the horrors of the surface
>but in large mostly empty outdoor areas with a couple of POIs and AI that cant do anything other than hide behind cover and blind fire at you
I enjoyed Volga and spent the rest of the game thinking 'what the fuck'

Pre-GSC butthurt it was STALKER for sure

Now not so much. And 2 kinda sucks

I enjoyed my time with it. They’ve been chipping away at some of the jank, its still not perfect, but they are getting there. Story i found to be kino, much more interesting than Metro, but Metro does have the better presentation. It feels cleaner and more focused.

>>737112445
last light is the best one

Gonna start 2033 today. How doable is getting the good ending blind? I don't really want to look up a guide but if I have to I'll do that on a 2nd playthrough. Though obviously I'd rather get it on my 1st.

You're going to be mostly bottlenecked by your cpu in stalker 2 especially in hub areas.
I think your gpu is more than fine for 1080p 60hz and you want your game to be installed on your ssd. For Metro only Exodus has RT/PT rtx stuff and is going to run well without.

>>737108478

I liked Novosibirsk because it was basically fan service for everyone who liked the setting of first two Metros

>>737112835
don't bother with stalker 2, you have an old CPU and I doubt a 2080 is enough for native 1080p because UE5 is that much of a turd

>>737113029
agreed with graphical downgrade (just like it happened with 2033 redux) but I found the pacing in ll generally better and you can still stealth through most of it

It's pretty good except for 70% of playtime in mid to endgame being running across empty fields while wrestling with the retarded weight system.

I like how the Project Silverfish developer is the inverse of modfags like Grok and analmeme devs

"Hmm i wish stalker played differently and focused more on some things, what should i do"
>PS: i should make my own game and create my own environment where i know how everything works
>modfags: i should wrestle with an autistic custom engine with things i have no access to for a decade trying to turn another game into my own game while filling it with bloated shit from a billion integrations and duct tape additions
"Hmm i should make the game have more progression, you reach your apex as soon as you get a rifle that shoots straight, what should i do"
>PS: Ill add more meaningful ways to progress and more types of gear you need to work towards
>modfags: ill make you unable to purchase shit for a non-ludicrous price and turn the process of getting good guns into an insane grindfest

Never played the third game cause I hated last light so much.

play them in order. if you dont like 2033, you probably wont like the rest. exodus is more open world but not sure if its wise to start with it. also redux is worse version of 2033, downgraded graphics, more consolised shooting etc

Metro games basically boil down to railroad/""cinematic"" game play sections, but its very tight focused and its atmosphere is untouchable and the steal combat sections are very fun on the hardest difficulty.

I dunno, I like em, and im excited they're moving away from the stupid open world exodus shit and having new protagonist

the fuck are these shills? this game looks like an asset flip using these low-poly unity store assets that are seen in every fucking flip on steam these days
just because every empty cave has funkopops to collect doesn't mean it's full of content, furfaggot

>>737125060
Yeah, it's quite literally a one-man band project, so the visuals are not exactly top priority. The stylisation then is quite deliberate to avoid assets clashing
But as was said before, if you ignore the furfaggotry, or tolerate it within the limits of the game lore's explanation for their presence, it's a really great, well-thought-out and complex game

>>737097970
Only in the cities, outside the cities there's clean air

>>737102646
I mean the artifacts and anomalies are much more from the book than the movie.

metro 2039 does not exist

Exodus started losing me after Volga and it seemed like the devs also lost hope in their design ideas too given that there's just 2 open world levels (not like there's a lack of empty time in the linear ones). Artyom's selective mutism and strangely slow movement and agility also gets even more retarded to the point it stops hurting the story and hurts you physically.
Stalker 2 started on a bad foot with that sub 10' bloodsucker, gave me some hope with the lesser hope and then the story started to drag on, sidequests vanished, the gunplay got increasingly unsatisfying, the cracks in ai started to show badly and I found myself walking long distances doing nothing repeatedly (okay, maybe I had to keep avoiding the "immersive squad spawns 3 meters in front of you" every so often)
Honestly I want to go back to OP 2.2s retardation. At least I have curiosity for what awaits me ahead there.

Read the book, watched the film, played the games. The film is honestly the weakest of the three. Takes out all the characterisation from the book. All the nutty side characters from the book appear in spirit in the NPCs in the games.

That's actually what the guy you're replying to wrote. To make it a bit clearer:
>The book inspired the movie which [in turn] inspired the game
He obviously doesn't say the bracketed part, but it's still implied because "which" is referring to the movie due to its placement in the sentence.

Pic related and steam store stuff are a better example of how it looks, his image is a rare event where everything is filled with fog so you cannot see far
Its quite literally made by one ultra autistically effortful guy that is only capable of low-poly for the graphics, he is doing everythin by himself, with a little bit of store assets here and there.
>just because every empty cave has funkopops to collect doesn't mean it's full of content

>WAY more different/fancy special guns than stalker, also a ton of normal guns in general

The only part that feels lacking in density might be the beginning of the game depending on your luck. Because the game is huge but doesnt just instantly direct you towards the crazy shit, it hopes you find it yourself

peripeteia is very debatable, its either a shit unfinished game or a kino unfinished game.
silverfish is arguably even more unfinished, though it is bigger by an immense margin, and is generally regarded as "pretty cool" by people who played it

>>737129428
It's like nu-fallout in a sense that the game has a lot of uppickable trash placed everywhere for the sake of making a consoletard comfortable. Tons of food stored in boxes, placed in highly irradiated areas.
Meds and ammo boxes just waiting for the player to be picked up. Why? Why the fuck are they even there? Do people in the zone just leave those and never pick them up? And it's all in abundance. You never feel like you need to actually trade artifacts for money and money for consumables. Everything is built around fixing your equip, the rest is always procurable.
Hordes of braindead npcs to shoot. Very sparse amount of sidequests and even then they're not impressive and basic, with a few exceptions. Really reminded me of modern FC sidequests that serve to pad the game and exist only for the sake of "content".
I know the series is not a survival genre but its world design is always in this constant clash with its game design.

tldr
their artists and those responsible for all things artistic deserve to eat
their gamedesigners are fucking stupid

Metro 2033 wasn't bad, but the remastered version changed the AI to make them really dumb.

A bit of an autistic nitpick
>WAY more underground labs/places than stalker
As in labs/dungeons present in a single game or over the entire trilogy/with S2? Because if the former, sure. If the latter, even without S2, hell no
>More fancy unique side quests/goals than stalker
Compared to SoC? Definitely. Compared to CS? Potentially. Compared to CoP? Questionable. Compared to the handful of quests in S2? Sure
>WAY more fleshed out artifacts than stalker
>WAY more different/fancy special guns than stalker, also a ton of normal guns in general
Again, it really depends on the particular entry, but overall, yes
