Russian disinfo is trying to spark a boycott of Stalker 2 by claiming it's going to draft you into the war in Ukraine somehow

The Bloodsuckers in the game do more than just suck blood UwU

To be clear, the rest was developed in Prague (after they fled the Russian invasion).

No parts that I know of were made in Russia.

There's really nothing like it.

Stalker takes all of the advantages games normally give you and crush it down to "You ain't important, bullet-cushion."

Firefights feel like they have stakes and risk is intense. Nothing that happens can just be shaken off, everything needs attention. It's not a normal FPS.

They might be, but to a small extent. What you are actually thinking of is America's Army - that game was made with recruitment in mind and to show how the army works. Subtle propaganda like no matter in which team you are, you are always a US soldier, and the opposite side is a terrorist. You pick up their guns, they shoot like shit and they are kalashnikovs etc. Someone on their team picks one up, it's the same gun it's always been and shoots perfectly fine. You literally had to go through "training" to be able to use a specific weapon, or be a medic. You took tests at the end of a lecture lol.

I didn't expect too much difference in the voices, as I wouldn't be able to tell Russian from Ukrainian (or even an accent) but it is weird hearing British and sorta kinda American accents all over the place after coming from the previous 3 games. It's like "Aw sweet, the Zone is multinational now!"

This happens tomorrow if we let Russia win today.

Not really how it works

Or, maybe, there's no conspiracy and someone just spouted bs, ya know, Tuesdays.
