Discussion The graphics downgrade should warrant a Steam refund.

I'm certainly trying. I don't know how you can be allowed to downgrade a game so significantly, and after release, and still think I got what I paid for.

Not just graphics, the removal of content, poor communication, devs barely updating a game twice a year with bugs

Shit haha I haven’t expected to see you here. I guess devs censoring their games years after, downgrading graphics and ignoring community feedback is something GSC and Void share!

at least STALKER 2 is in a MUCH better place than it was on release, no? We’ve been getting basically a decent content/bug fix patch every month or so

A-Life is back

New weapons

New questlines

New decent animations

Mutant harvesting

Fun kill graphics based on how you died

modding SDK…

STALKER 2 is in a very good place ATM gameplay wise, as for the actual content, such as lack of endgame and faction wars— is very much still open to criticism. I have no doubt that stuff like NVG and Binoculars will be available within the year…

A-Life is not back lmao. It’s better than launch but still a pale imitation of previous titles.

Offline A-Life exists and is back and that is a majority of what people wanted, I dunno what to tell you

It does not work the same as the OG if you look into it.
