    My favorite thing about Anomaly is when a veteran loner hangs out in rookie village just to hire some dipshit who just arrived in the zone (you) to get them a pelt of some easy to kill mutant and then laugh as they fuck off into the depths of red forest the second you go to procure their pelt for them. Massive dickheads hazing the newbies just feels so immersive.

    I'm from Eastern Europe and Stalker is a certified everyday simulator.
    In highschool and uni I would try to make money during summer by collecting and reselling waste metal, especially with copper you could make pretty good profit. It was a full on stalker experience with stray dogs chasing you, crazy villagers trying to kill or rob you and selling copper like artifacts to Sidorovich

      ​@@WillyDiddler Exactly, the interesting thing with this game is how ironically you follow the same patterns the NPCs do, wherein they have their daily routines.
      You go out, get your task, complete the task, return by dark likely, get some R&R by smoking, eating, and drinking, then sleep.
      Your cycle is something akin to that and idk, I think we take that for granted.

    The only reason I ever tried this mod was because of a weapon reanimation addon from blindside, a super cool modder, sadly it's not in a finished state, but it made the gunplay feel sooo much better than stock weapons, although the game suffers from item bloat, there is so much shit that doesn't serve any other purpose other than to be sold, repairing is annoying as fuck outside of technicians, you are most likely to find repair items which you can't use, because your gun is too damaged for it to be used.
    Really just a lot of needless shit that makes playing this game more like a chore than a fun experience.

      Not really, most items can be dissasembled and used to craft things, like mod kits for armor and weapons and also you just can change most of the things in the config to make the game less difficult, almost everything can be tweaken on the gameplay and progression options in the menu and there are some nice addons that add some sliders for the loot system so you can decide the state of the items you find on corpses and stashes.

    • @WillyDiddler
      @WillyDiddler  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I knew about UNISG and SIN, but had never played as either of them, and my only interaction with them was a shootout with a bunch of SIN in Red Forest. Just thought it was best to leave them out because of that. Gamma and EFP look really cool from what I've seen. I need to play them.

    • @Rexxie44
      @Rexxie44 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      UNISG is actually pretty cool, it's pretty much a remake of the COP plot but handled more.. elaborately yet briefly.
      In COP you're supposed to be a military guy sneaking in as a Loner to gather intel.
      With UNISG, you're more so a black ops unit operating in the Zone under complete radio silence and the dark of night.
      Your disguises to blend into the local culture are purely based off your acquisition of armors yourself. Your only friend will be Mercenaries.
      Also a lil funfact that may interest anyone, when playing UNISG, they have daily care-package drops of random stuff you'd find in the rare loot stashes basically, and then some.. it's pretty sick.

  • @judsongaiden9878
    @judsongaiden9878 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    1:56 Except that you can't dodge pseudogiant pseudostomps like you could in ShoC. Same for CoP and Clear Sky. Makes no sense that you shouldn't be able to dodge those stomps by jumping at just the right time. It's a shockwave, not an airburst! Also, I wish there were snorks in Anomaly that could lunge at you at a high angle as well as from way far away like the classic "man-eating" snorks from ShoC. It's fun to nail those suckers in the head with a pistol while they're in the air just for sport (or with 40-mils for sheer spectacle).
    2:15 Ackchyually, it's pronounced "Noah-sphere."
    4:08 In my experience, Anomaly isn't a "poverty simulator." Granted, I've only played ecologist and loner so far, so I'm able to do jobs for most "civilized" folk. I especially enjoy hunting mutants (and assassinating authoritarian collectivist Monolith jerkweeds) for Trapper.
    6:16 The expense depends on the specificitrons of the gear. My fave wep is an AKMSN with a GP-25 (rifle for most regular enemies, 40-mils for pseudogiants, chimeras, controllers, and burers). It's cheap to fix and upgrade, plus parts are readily avails. Btw, in this mod, "N" indicates that it's a post-1959/pre-1991 AK model with a dovetail mount for optics. IRL, I think the letter "N" in AK nomenclature has something to do with night vision. I'm not entirely sure about that, so correct me if I'm wrong. Anyway, the only reason I favor the AKMS(N) is because it has a bakelite mag, making it look like it time-traveled from the 1970s.
    Edit/Note: An AK in 7.62x39 with a GP-25, a shotgun, and an ax will allow you to efficiently deal with anything the Zone throws at you. You could go for something fancier, like an AEK-971 or '973, or something more Western, like a SCAR with an M-203, but it'll be less economical. That's less of a concern once you're the #1 zoner in the Zone of demented do0m.
    6:35 If you've supplied a technician with three tiers of upgrade tools, they'll let you use their workbench for free.
    7:45 Or spent rifle casings.

      I will say that as far as S.T.A.L.K.E.R. goes, Anomaly has far from the most unforgiving economy. But I was mainly speaking about Stalkers as they're presented to be in universe; where it's mostly said that it's hard to make a living in The Zone from what I recall. Especially in the outer parts, that have been thoroughly looted for the most part. You can easily make loads of money from a couple successful artifact hunts. I also think that when there's a nearly free, or low cost alternative, the cost of repairs by a technician generally sits pretty high for most weapons that are in poor condition. I did forget that workbenches are free after all tools are collected however. Aside from what you pointed out, I hope you enjoyed the video.
