In general I would say most people who bought this game before patch 1.5.0.4 was released will be pissed off about the immense amount of bugs. I had major problems with 1.5.0.3 but have only experienced a couple of bugs and crashes with 1.5.0.4, now it runs pretty nice.
Personally though, I had high expectations for this as I loved the first game in the series. Sadly this is a prequel which plays out on the same maps/levels, so nothing new there - what has changed since the previous game is a) new DX 10 features which are stunning, on DX 9 there are also some enhanced graphics/physics, but this comes at an expense: b) Clear Sky has been seriously bugged, lots and lots of issues which makes the game freeze or completely crash. Not especially fun.
The atmosphere is the same as in the previous game, and if you liked that, you will most likely enjoy this as well - though it really feels a lot less secluded. Where in Shadow of Chernobyl you would trek along for hours alone, fight alone against mutants and factions, you will now work for and possibly join lots of factions etc.
Conclusion:
Buy it if you liked Stalker: SoC, Crysis, Far Cry, or similar games, but make sure to update to newest patch to avoid bugs. The feeling of being alone is less present in this game, but still has some creepy moments and mystique about it.
I don't like this game at all. Seems like its still in beta. Terrible game.
