Man, that place is sounding lamer with every extra bit of info you give (the freedom bar I mean). Good luck finding your way out.

Annoying creatures blocking your way aren't ideal, but it's kinda cool to have some resistance on your path. I hope Fallout 3 will make good use of the same system (no enemy levelling, zones freely accessible with enemies above your current skill, etc).

ok, I tried. I really did. But this game is unplayable. CTDs and bugs everywhere. I'm finally at a point where every where I go, I just CTD. I'm tired of dealing with it.

I regret buying this game. Noone else make the mistake. It's unfinished. Maybe I'll try again in 6 months.

New Stalker in the works, as well as another expansion for the original

heh...yea...no. Not buying another bugfest. They lost me on the last piece of crap. Maybe I'll reinstall it again in a few months and see if it's been patched to the point of being playable yet.

Man, I sound like such a bastard. heh...oh well. At least I'm not as ruined to games as Derf.

Yeah, im really jaded.

Nah, i wont be getting this Stalker game. Im surprised theyre persisting with it to be honest.

hmm...judging by the article, the game is at least playable now. I wish they'd fix the faction warfare, though. Sounds like it's still pretty broken. But hey, whatever. If I get burned out on my current games, with nothing really on the horizon, I may just reinstall Clear Sky and see how it goes.

I definitely won't be buying any new Stalker game within a year of release, though. That's definitely been drilled into my brain.
