S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (Scavengers, Trespassers, Adventurers, Loners, Killers, Explorers, and Robbers) is a non-linear, sandbox-style game. Players can explore the game world, or complete various assignments given by certain NPCs. Players take the role of "The Marked One", a Stalker with amnesia who is attempting to regain his memories. The Zone presents various dangers. Gameplay is an RPG/FPS hybrid, though the player does not gain increased powers as in a standard computer RPG. Character advancement is achieved through acquiring and strategically using new equipment and artifacts, rather than enhancing attributes and skills. The role-playing part focuses more on traditional RPG elements, such as storyline and character interaction. However, the game does not allow for extensive variety in regards to conversations. Unlike RPGs such as Fallout, conversation branches are extremely limited and do not significantly influence the course of an event, save accepting or declining a mission.

worst game I've ever played
Nice graphics and good gameplay (but still bit' buggy) Also I like this gloomy atmosphere of the game.
Pretty good, specially with STALKER Complete 2009 mod.
It's cool until you become an exoskeleton-clad ubersoldier that's only encumbered by carrying around too much stuff or running out of ammo. Then it becomes boring.
Despite the game's bugs (don't forget to patch!) this is a game I can get really absorbed in due to the excellent creepy and dismal atmosphere. It's an exciting world to explore, full of derelict buildings, bleak hillsides and dank basements. Also a nice game for gun fetishists. On the downside there is some dodgy English localisation and the usual AI problems.
All time favorite, along with Half-Life, Fallout and a few others.
This game is very ambitious, to say the least. However, at many times, frequent faults and bugs are found in the game, really marring the experience. However, when the game shines, it really shines with it's gameplay. Just don't expect a perfect game. Tons of quests (Although most are fetch/kill/escort missions), tons of weapons, so many things to do.
Excelente juego, a pesar de que su primera versión publica tenia muchos problemas de rendimiento pero finalmente lograron resolver eso con un par de parches; a partir de allí el juego es una completa obra de arte.
Love this game, especially guns pimping :-)
Nice game but i found it didn't have a very good gameplay.
SUPERB!
I play this for 2 hours and am just walking around killing hundreds of people and doing weak quests. i dont get it, i must be missing something... :(
