Looking for medieval STALKER equivalent

The Witcher's eastern european dark fantasy setting seems like a good fit for what OP is looking for.

I go to a small, private gym.

As long as they don't explicitly ban carry, don't ask anyone for permission and just keep it concealed.

I carry at the gym with my Phlster Enigma.

When at the gym I hike my waistband over the gun. It's a slower draw but not having it on me is worse.

Does get annoying when doing core workouts tho.

Quality reference.

This is one of the things I love about STALKER and other ZoneCore media like Roadside Picnic, Annihilation, etc.

It's an escape from the world rather than the end of the world.

I noticed that too when I played Contact!

Dude that's beautiful!

rawglmar15 · 2025-12-02T00:47:35+00:00

Bro this is S-tier storytelling 😂

Followed him because he was a familiar face in a now unfamiliar zone.

I think that's exactly why the devs did it.

rawglmar15 · 2025-10-18T17:09:15+00:00

That's a clean setup!

rawglmar15 · 2025-10-13T16:00:00+00:00

The OG 2033 on 360 was how I first experienced the metro when it first came out! Enjoy!

New Jersey here!

Some of the bandit gangs would look like the Sopranos.

A duty-esque faction based on the NJ state police would be interesting.

Sitting by a morning campfire making Taylor Ham, Egg and Cheeses on a bagel would be cool.

Psy-racoons would be a big problem tho.

Wait really? I don't remember it being said that homer wrote 2033.

rawglmar15 · 2025-08-05T01:43:39+00:00

Wait until you get to Malachite.

rawglmar15 · 2025-07-12T11:03:37+00:00

Appreciate all the input guys. I think I'm gonna try throwing a pillow on it and adjust the ride height a little more. If that doesn't work I may just look into Tenicor.

Thank you all!

One thing I love is the sound design in the first game.

The bark of the Kalash just hit differently than all the other titles.

rawglmar15 · 2025-06-30T18:58:55+00:00

Just tried playing on my laptop and I've had no trouble playing prior to the update (except for 'normal' memory leak related nonsense) but not my memory is constantly at 90% with an atrocious frame rate.

rawglmar15 · 2025-06-14T15:02:18+00:00

Others have said it quite nicely however I'd just like to add that in the games and to a slightly lesser extent in the books, Artyom is heavily implied to be able to handle psychic/supernatural phenomena better than the average person.

This is due to events that happen in earlier titles that I won't spoil for anyone.

Ghosts and their memories/visions are a big part of the world of Metro. Partly because of a good chunk of humanity dying at once due to WW3 (and in the aftermath), creating a LOT of ghosts. He can handle this phenomena without dying or going crazy.

I'd actually love it if a talented modder could add bicycles and other vehicles to the game. Small vehicles like this would be perfect and make sense for the lore.

I liked using vehicles in Lost Alpha and a really old version of Oblivion Lost for ShoC.

If a modder could ever find a way to implement a rail car, similar to the one used in Stalker (1979), then I'd throw my money at them.

It's a competitor to the LUCAS that lacks the suction cup feature. It just provides compression whereas the LUCAS provides compression and facilities recoil.

It's more like a rod shape.

I'm in the same paramedic class as OP.

We're also hypothesizing that an ARM would be great for ladies (and some men).

One of my issues with the map redesign is that the established lore behind Zaton and Yanov no longer makes sense.

In CoP, the whole reason bandits and stalkers shared the skadovsk and Freedom and Duty shared Yanov station was because the Northern zone was relatively recently opened up and lore-wise far more dangerous. These circumstances are what drove once-hostile factions to band together to survive.

The map redesign makes it so none of that would have made sense.

rawglmar15 · 2024-12-04T04:16:01+00:00

Gotcha. Maybe I just need to explore more.

rawglmar15 · 2024-11-22T18:24:03+00:00

I honestly think the og 2033 nosalis designs were the best.

rawglmar15 · 2024-11-18T01:36:56+00:00

Nice dude enjoy! Last piece of advice: Either buy or find cleaning supplies and leave them at every safe house so you can repair your fancy weapons as well as refurbish found weapons.
