S.T.A.L.K.E.R. How I Learned to Love the Zone
A video essay talking in retrospect about the series of games called S.T.A.L.K.E.R. created by GSC Games and developed originally for PC. In this video I go over not only the entire story of the first 3 games but also aspects of their gameplay and in addition give a story preview for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, the newest release.

    Wow. What an amazing video. Not only is this a work of art, but it is a solid piece of Stalker commentary. I can really see you bringing so much more to the community so, please, keep doing what you’re doing!! Ps. This is not a plug, so I apologize if it sounds like one. My computer can barely run the original trilogy, so I didn’t have a hope for Stalker 2: HoC. What I ended up doing, was signing up for nvidia GeForce cloud gaming. If you pay-something like $10 a month if you pay by month, or $20, if you pay for the deluxe package, where you get access to their highest tier rigs. You can also get a free account; the only downsides of a free account are (1): a (usually) short wait to boot up the game as you wait in a (usually) short line, and (2): the fact that you can only play an hour at a time with a free account. That being said, it does warn you so you have time to save before it kicks you. And you can boot it up right away again, just have to wait in line. The line usually takes a minute or two for me, tops. I was using the free service and it worked really well for me. I ended up buying a single month of the premium (non-recurring charge) for $20 and have been extremely satisfied with the performance-I am running Stalker 2 on Epic settings on my shitty laptop! Again, sorry for the info dump and, again, this is not a plug. I just want people to at least know about this option. It shouldn’t just be those with the best rigs who get to experience this masterpiece. Speaking of masterpieces, thanks again for this amazing piece of work! I have subscribed and shared your channel with the one or two friends I have. 💙
