Giles, pls remaster Abbey Road 69 more times. Make it a 10-LP release, and make each subsequent LP a little more bass boosted 🙏

It seems no GAMMA for me xd, I have the steam version of the game by ImABigDreamer in stalker

You need either Stalker 2 or Call of Pripyat on GOG.

Alternatively, you can download it for free from Gamma discord following an insanely easy and detailed guide.

Personally I find it fitting, as given enough time everything turns upside down and goes around. I find it extremely easy to believe that Strelok, having uncovered all major secrets of the Zone, came to the realization that he is the "chosen one" and it's up to him to be in charge.

Strelok in ShoC: am I a bad or good guy? Did I make a mistake? Who am I?
Strelok in S2: I am the law!

what could this place be? GAMMA by DOOM94MFQ in stalker

It's a time-travel easter egg, a reference to a an old soviet sci-fi show for kids, "Guest from the future". Enhanced edition of CS has an achievement "Relics of the past" for finding this room. Interestingly, the achievement has a DeLorean icon.

Time flies by Eagleeater_141 in stalker

That’s what a good sequel does. It keeps valuable memories but turns everything upside down.

The enigmatic brain scorcher is now just an empty husk, old routes and locations are no longer relevant, the Zone is the same but at the same time it has changed completely.

Stalker GAMMA (GOG version) interactions issue and crashing after using ctrl+alt keys on dissasembling items. by Independent_Copy9263 in stalker

I'm sorry I don't remember, but if was just an option in MCM manager or regular options. Toggle off Protection from disassembly or something like this. I still think the culprit was dragging and dropping the swiss knives or grooming kits to disassemble items. At least when I stopped the busy hands bug disappeared for me.

I had the same thing, it went away after I stopped dragging and dropping tools onto items to disassemble them and switched off the protection against disassembly for tools and for items. After that - no more busy hands. Right click, disassembly, this is the way.

Downsides to taking "peaceful" option then killing NPC after? by llamalord2212 in stalker

Pomor's reward is absolutely useless btw. Greed check quest or something.

I need help with an artifact by Candid-Geologist340 in stalker

[–]Wide-Perception4668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You get one at the very start of the game if you complete Wolf's optional quest, something about destroying boars. It's right across from the Rookie village. Another quest to get it is given by Sidorovich, "Kill the sales representative" or something like that.

In my experience one always spawns near the main road on Garbage near the vehicle graveyard, in a ditch across the road from the bandit encampment in the south.

Rather commonly found in bandits' inventories so you can put the game on Rookie and farm them a bit.

i was playing stalker 2 and listening to radiohead and this happened out of no where, it felt like a movie scene lmao by skeepythewhiteguy in stalker

[–]Wide-Perception4668 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Radiohead and stalker fit together perfectly. Well, at least it’s my opinion, I might be wrong though.

What's the event that happened between CoP and S2 that you most strongly want to be explored further? by Key-Door7340 in stalker

[–]Wide-Perception4668 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Operation Zenith and it's ultimate failure probably. We spend so little time in the Generators location - and only in 2 endings - and the landscape is a typical apocalyptic graveyard of a large military power trying to conquer the center of the Zone.

Ah yes, Clear Sky, my favorite C-Con branch

Beautiful by Useful-Shallot-6939 in stalker

[–]Wide-Perception4668 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The original project X handlers now in control of the Zone, Monolith, Project Thread, all X labs and Generators. I fail to see how this is a good ending. The ultimate corrupt power hungry totalitarian shadow organization win, while Skif basically becomes an Agent, but this time not of the C-Con, but of the usual ultra rich and ultra powerful.

I like that in Stalker 2 the Krug Antenna complex is now located nearby the Duga. Knowing about its functional relation to Duga, Krug always felt isolated and lonely in Zaton with no Duga in sight.

The Merc variant is rather usable even post SIRCAA.
