      You’re a W dude… covering even “alternative” routes… like the bridgeVS electric death tunnel.
      Plz upload more man idk do you need $$$? Can’t believe it’s been 17 months… and *THAT 3 HOUR NO MORE HEROES VID WAS THE BEST I SEEN IN AGES*
      Best part abt long vids is can watch 342 times over the years!!!
      But no dude fr shoot idk if u take game suggestions but based off you’re taste… might have a few great ones- you have a niche taste especially w some u have covered..
      I could go over some games for a few hours/nostalgia trip to get some.
      Seeing you cover fallout 3/NV would be huge… could be a multiple video kind of thing especially if you cover the (major side quests not all of them) like Reilys Ranger or THOSE or etc
      Could listen to u all day dude and that would be like HOURS of content right there.. lots of people love ya man based off the comments “this channel’s underrated”
      Just takes 1 big breakthrough and you would have 2-5 million subs from 600K in a few months bro

I'm actually buffled to see it being talked about by someone from non-russian speaking country, and not just someone, MY FAVOURITE COMMENTARY TH-camR. Genuinely brings a tear of joy to my eyes

      @ryba_byba Stalker has always had a strong western following, there was huge hype for the then upcoming Stalker2,but then the real world affected the game studio, leaving the future of the game unclear. Recently Xbox has added the initial stalker games in the store, building the hype for the upcoming stalker 2 release.
      On a similar level, Tarkov is big here,and the 1+2 of Metro 2033/ last light represented the tone of the first novel perfectly, when great writing and game design collide.

Was unaware of CS or CoP until I was older and browsed through steam out of curiosity.

    So on the point of the radioactive piles of trash in The Garbage:
    That's a very real thing, most famously the firefighter's gear that's still dangerously radioactive in the basement of the hospital they were treated at, or the vehicle graveyards of all of the trucks, ambulances, firetrucks, and military vehicles and helicopters that were just left neatly organized to rust and decay overtime. A LOT of it is still dangerously radioactive and likely will be for the remainder of our lives.
    It's actually where a lot of the real-life Stalkers end up getting their own "artifacts." No joke, there's several hundred people a year who enter the actual exclusion zone every year who try to make off with small trinkets like keys, lugnuts, all sorts of stuff, as souvenirs of their trip, which is illegal. Mostly tourists who go on a tour of the zone and think it's safe to make off with whatever they find only to find out it's tripping off Geiger counters on their way out. Obviously less of a concern today because of the war which had made... other dangers... but yeah, a real concern the Ukrainian authorities have been dealing with for decades is actual stalkers taking actual artifacts out of the actual zone.

I guess no one in those units played Stalker.

      even more - they dug trenches to hide in the Red Forest, which is the most radioactive shit ever - the soil still retains all the radiation, making the trees glow in the dark. the russians even slept in those holes, tactically hiding from jets and drones, but permanently infected themselves with radiation....

    My instincts instantly kicked in at 18:54 and I thought "Bloodsucker" just from hearing him screaming for a split second, almost in a PTSD way. You can take a stalker out of the Zone, but never the Zone out of a stalker.

      Same, my grandpops got me into stalker and he warned that there will be a loud enemy that I HAVE to watch out for. And even before I've seen it, I heard it and I was promptly terrified. It's one thing to encounter something scary on your own and another to hear about it as a warning from someone so much more experienced and have that nagging in the back of your mind until you suddenly see why it is described in such a way.

    It's always a pleasure watching these videos, as your passion and love for a franchise always shines through. You play through the game yourself and use your own footage, from start to finish. You take that little extra time to do your research, because the topic genuinely interests you. And you give honest reviews, pointing out both flaws but ingenuity these classics brought to certain genres and franchises.
    I bought the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series on sale, receiving a message that proceeds would go towards helping the Ukraine developers (this was some time during the start of the war), and to see the skill, the style and talent attached to each of the games made it a must-have series.
    So thank you for sharing your passion and love for it with us in yet another awesome video. Cannot wait to see which game or franchise you cover next 😁

    My dad got this game during his stay in Russia when I was a kid and unfortunately it didn’t have english dub so when we played it it was such a raw experience..game is tons of fun and full of secrets and things like that. Stalker Call of Pripyat is also banger and honestly haunting experience since they made ingame Pripyat VERY authentic to real city with the big Wheel, abandoned buildings full of radiation and the reactor itself. I definitely recommend picking it up if you are into those types of games ✌🏻

    Helpful Tip For Fellow STALKER's. Always, always, always repeat the Bloodsucker's side quest at the bar to get enough Battery artifacts(+30% to shock resist minus endurance) to repair your best armor in electricity anomalies as these as very present end game. You unlock this by completing the Quest givers first quest which is getting his family rifle back, which isn't a rifle, its a sawed off shotgun, so be careful not to sell it when starting the quest. Now you get repeatable Bloodsucker quest that nets you a single battery, which with 4-5(depending on armor) you'll get over the 100% threshold and the damage will be null while the lightning anomalies will now repair armor. Sadly won't repair weapons.
    Second Tip: To offset the amount of radiation you are sucking back like a gopnik sucks cheap bottom shelf vodka, I recommend investing a few hours making sure you hunt down the Artifacts to help balance off radiation as well as keeping you're stamina pretty much infinite. You are going to want two Moonlights(Endurance of +106 for -10 shock which is offset by a couple Battery Artifacts) to offset Crystals(Radiation Resist of 30 with minus to Endurance of 10) and just a shit ton of bandages as you'll probably equip one or two Bleed effect artifacts like Urchin or Crystal Thorn as the third slot if you can't get three Crystals.
    I usually run two moonlights and three batteries on my belt to speed sprint infinitely. When I get into heavy radiation areas or the late game area I slap on my full radiation resistant Artifacts and the rest is just eating Bandages and Medkits when taking too much lead.

    It's the first video on Stalker from a non-Russian-speaking creator I've watched, and wow does the community and perception changes. I haven't finished the first game (Shadow of Chernobyl), but I have played through like half of it, I also completed the last one multiple times (Call of Pripyat). I do want to mention that you wrongfully mentioned that enemies appear at random locations each time you load a save 7:30 I don't know how that would even work, since you're not just reaching checkpoints, you are manually saving your progress. Enemies don't just teleport around. The reason why you may have bumped into enemies at different points while save-scumming is that most of them never stop moving, and you take less time to move around the map, so you bump into enemies at spots they visited last time as well just before you found them. I hope that makes sense. Also, the end of Shadow of Chernobyl is not the last we hear of Strelok. As you mentioned yourself, he appears in the sequel Call of Pripyat. SPOILER ALERT. There, if you safely protect him during the final helicopter evacuation mission, he will be mentioned in the epilogue. It is said that he shared his information with the Ukrainian Security Service (СБУ/SBU It's a real life organisation) he joins them as a scientist, having contributed to solving the mysteries of The Zone. All in all, a great video. It was also funny to hear the confusion at the untranslated parts of the game. It's as funny as it is sad, because 100% of the content and atmosphere are not accessible to thousands of fans around the world

      Long time since I´ve played classic, but I do have STALKERSOUP. The "disengaged to alert", and "default positions and patrolling" is somewhat "manana". Load a save, and people do change positions if you are not actively engaged with them- like "as if" it is not a timefreeze, but the starting and "entering the zone" has its own sequence with a timeframe where the player is still omitted for a bit, they disengage, and start walking away(or sumpin). Now in modded stalker, on an old PC, It sometimes takes forerever for enemies to spawn, and I have had probelms with them snapping a quick T pose/gun grab (when I have hit the spawn point "where you at?") and then sprayed their abdomen as we both unloaded at 10 cm apart. These "until it is aready" kind of spawns, I remeber from vanilla aswell, but not to such an extent. The ZONE IS ANOMALOUS. I have walked the labs under Agropom several times through, and have had a bloodsucker spawn, then the rest X time later, as if the trigger got bamboozled somehow, it was all clear including the controller, but the mod also uses a walkaround, a teleporter anomaly you need to enter(and it migrates), that better ties into it being inaccessible, and a strue stash for a master stalker. I waas still surpúrised, when walking around confuised "how to get into the pipe", always teleporting me "away", then the bloodsuckers came, half an hour after the action has ended.
