@@HunterAnsorge-ok9jk not completely, some of GSC game world branched off to make 4A games after the disastrous development processes of shadow of Chernobyl and clear sky. Gsc still has some original devs while some are still working at 4A.
the first mod that combined maps from the original stalker parts was probably Stalker Lost Alpha. I recommend you take a look at STALKER OGSE, STALKER OGSR, True Stalker and many older mods.

Yeah not enough. Spt was fun for a few weeks then after modding it even more and diving deep I just lost interest. Basically the tarkov is amazing but I learned that it’s the human element that makes it so damn satisfying. This is a single player experience that doesn’t require additional humans.
I like stalker anomaly with EFP or GAMMA modpacks but i feel a lil bad about it, cuz STALKER 2 is cooming out(Sept 5)and the EFP/GAMMA dudes (who doesnt played the triology) will try it out and they gonna be dissapointed cuz its not the ultra-realistic survival game, and its just a FPS survival horror game like the good old triology and gonna bomb the reviews with negative comments.
@@illuminatannunak yeah literally thats what i tryna tell to others, i wish atleast they gonna publish the game in a finished state, and the recommended system req is not for 1080p high with DLSS/FSR ON cuz its looks really ugly in 1080p to use those. (i have a r5 1600AF with a rx 6600xt but im going to upgrade to a r5 5600 next month)
I just came new to stalker and I already hate the whole exaggerated "realistic" survival stuff. I would love it if a new stalker came out that is less like that.
@@eKoush well i love stalker but i dont want the game less difficult, i seen a video about the new star wars game... well its "difficulty" is a joke. ON HARD the game is so easy maybe its hard for a 6 years old kid who never played videogames... idk what happend but ubisoft is making triple-L games instead of triple-A games nowadays.
@@NandihVokHUN stalker is the dark souls of fps games, before "get good" was a meme (I know technically dark souls is the stalker of third person RPGs, it just doesn't flow off the tongue as well lol)
GAMMA steals the show mostly because the attention Drewski has drawn to it, many of GAMMA players are totally new people who never even heard about the OGs.
@@ryanwood6006 in efp you can buy guns and don't have to spend 48 hours making a pistol go from 3% durability to 10% durability, gamma has cooler ui
Excellent video, thumbs up, I also really enjoy your Hell Let Loose tips/vids you do too. Getting into my mid 30s now, my desire to play super fast paced cracked out online pvp stuff where I'm left in the dust if I'm not playing it religiously like some do on some hella stimulants goes lower and lower...words really can't even do justice to how much I'd take Stalker Anomaly over Apex or Fortnite,etc lol. Nonetheless Hell Let Loose or Squad 44 (previously Post Scriptum), and even regular Squad. I'm just liking somewhat slower more tactical stuff now. I've been playing vanilla Anomaly for awhile now off and on, sat down the past few days and really grinded it and am going to finally do the main story now, when I finally finish it I'll definitely try EFP and Gamma out. Crazy how something for free can have SO much replay value, what these modders have done truly puts a lot of modern game companies to shame
Thanks mate! Totally agree. I'm also in my mid 30s and in a similar situation. Although, I do appreciate Rainbow Six Siege since it's also very tactical and - while competitive - more about holding angles than quick movement.
Dark Signal. It has all of the atmosphere and gunplay, but none of the crazy grinding. More like vanilla Stalker, where you just need to bandage after getting shot, just need to pay a mechanic to fix your gun, etc. Dark Signal is a great modpack, and it's much easier to install as well.
Is there a way to play through the original Three campaigns but with this sort of gameplay? I'm really interested in the OG games, but they are so dated in the gameplay Department that it turns me off
Why do people always say Stalker is post apocalyptic/nuclear? Sure Chernobyl is a ghost town and (in a sense) an urban wasteland, but is pretty much just an abandoned place. "The zone" on the other hand is 100% a wasteland full of "deadly anomalies, dangerous mutants, anarchists and bandits!" but the game ain't post apocalyptic...the world is still very much alive and well outside the zone. Even profits from it.
DONT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH GAMMA! It is incredibly broken! EFP has given me hardly any issues and the amount of time required to get EFP up and running is NOTHING compared to gamma! Dont waste 16 hours of your life like me trying to get gamma to work and just play EFP!!
The devs only named the modpack Escape from Pripyat, because of some of the nice additions inspired by Tarkov, but it isn't Tarkov, devs even said they DON'T want their modpack to be Tarkov.
As with every game out now it is way too complicated and you have to spend every 30 seconds in the menu selecting stuff. Just like this video because you are talking about so many different games that I have lost track of what the game is that you where telling us about.
You butchered the stalker timeline. The 2nd incident happened in 2006, which sparked all appearances of mutants and anomalies. In that day a 7.6 magnitute earthquake happened alongside a bright storm. All this was caused by clandestine research group which tried to tweak an informational field above the Earth to try and get rid of anger and greed from humanity. First stalkers started to wander into the Zone in 2007. In shadow of chernobyl and call of pripyat you play in 2012 and in clear sky you play in 2011.
People like you misrepresenting stalker and never having played a real stalker game are responsible for the toxic tarkov larper subcommunity that plagues stalker today
No its not Gamma is just survival and crafty all alone while EFP is more fight orientated and about gun fights ,and it is pain in ass to install Gamma,and always some kind of error i install EFP in 15 min
Lmao you set yourself up for failure by putting the word tarkov anywhere next to stalker. Here comes the horde. *wannabe russian 30 year old neckbeards are typing*
Dude EFP is useless, I installed it and after 6 mins of gameplay I uninstalled it, I just couldn't walk 20 meters. The walking is so damn slow made my patience run out and the sprinting is even slower than the walk it's crazy and there was no missions after I selected story and I spawned in the outskirts in the tree apartments, nothing was on my PDA as story quests. Immediate uninstall. Pointless. Idk what's the hype about it why people love it so much
Both epf and gayma are useless. Og veteran stalker fans like us plays all trilogy games with mods and lots of soup mods like stalker soup, op2.1, 2.2, narodnaya solyanka, new arsenal etc etc
Stalker isnt tarcov-like; tarkov is stalker-like
At this point hey are retro feeded
Why did you spell Tarkov two different ways in the same sentence?
Both metro and tarkov were inspired by stalker
@@davidponder1654metro was made by the team that made stalker you gotta ride that meat like I do fam

This was high quality gaming journalism, very impressive work, thankyou! I already played Anomaly, I want to play this next!
if you want a singleplayer tarkov experiance without monsters just get sptarkov its singleplayer and you can mod it as much as you want
it fries my old laptop but i can play stalker

stalker was never about being "tactical" or "military shooter", the gamma crowd is going to be so sad about stalker 2, I can already imagine

Wonderful video! Thank you for the entertainment!
Gamma usually steals the show but EFP seem to have its own things like cover and different gunplay
GAMMA steals the show mostly because the attention Drewski has drawn to it, many of GAMMA players are totally new people who never even heard about the OGs.
@@Mikkel_kaFrequent updates doesn't mean anything other that unpolished release.
EFP is just watered down Gamma with a few added animations. You can add these mods to Gamma and have the same animations and EFP stuff.

What stalker anomaly modpacks offer a chiller/ not tarkov experience?
Dark Signal. It has all of the atmosphere and gunplay, but none of the crazy grinding. More like vanilla Stalker, where you just need to bandage after getting shot, just need to pay a mechanic to fix your gun, etc. Dark Signal is a great modpack, and it's much easier to install as well.

Why do none of these mods have HD Character models?

What's the difference between this and gamma
how the hell do i accses the fucking characte rupgrade menu
Never in my life have I heard someone call stalker a Tarkov like shooter
yeah their discord would need to work for me to play this shit
what are your grass settings?
Or if you really want a tarkov singleplayer try SPT

stalker isn't a tactical shooter, no matter what mods you install. and surely single player tarkov is the ultimate tarkov-like sp experience?

STALKER is a shooter where you have to use tactics to survive.
@@shasotaualfa Yup this, the YT OP just titled it like this for ez views if the algorithm picks it up.
