The tragic fate of Colonel Kowalski's unit should be enriched with this element, there is a clear lack of explanation of what happened to Lieutenant Skelia's last unit. Moreover, the confrontation with the Horror of Pripyat in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, for example, again near the school would crush the chair.
Great summary of a very interesting topic, I missed such in-depth lore videos. The term "psy" may actually come from the Greek letter psi (ψ), and isn't necessarily just a derivative of "psychotronic/psychotropic" (although that makes sense too). This makes more sense in Russian, where "psy" is written as "пси" - psi. This is also how it was written in the English version of SoC; only in CS and CoP it was changed to "psy". I think that "psi" makes more sense when it comes to the term "psi-emission" - as you mentioned, sometimes the word "radiation" is used in the game for this phenomenon, which actually is due to the fact that in Russian the word for emission - излучение - is also used to refer to radiation. So in Russian, psi-emission is more like "psi-radiation", and thus can be compared to other types of radiation, also represented by Greek letters (alpha, beta, gamma). It's also worth mentioning that in SoC design documents there is a mention of a measurement unit for psi-emission power, written as "psiA". It was planned that this information would be included in the documents from X-16, but it was scrapped.
Great lead, buddy. Let's hope that the topic of psi waves and the intentions behind its creation, for example the creation of an army of passive, perfect, mutant soldiers controlled by antennas/controllers, will be discussed extensively in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2.
Aha! So a much more scientific and empirical approach other than a paranormal wave that affects brains! So it's more like a type of radiation, like alpha, gamma etc. Makes a lot more sense. Created a device that emits this certain type of radiation, which have an effect on the mind
Despite the fact that zombified stalkers represent one of the worst fates in the zone (not just because you are aware of what you are,but also because its the zone's middle finger),they are pretty cool
My head cannon is that the monolith is and was not an illusion, it’s a very real thing, a powerful psy device that processes the orders of the C-consciousness and transmitted it to the monolith soldiers. Let’s say a AI powers psy device, and it does what AIs do, try to execute orders given to it, but with the C-consciousness gone there is no higher command and so it does what it was told to do, protect the zone from outside influence. With that there could still be a possible return in full force of the monolith faction, a single squad managing to infiltrate the brain schorcher and modifying it to be more then just a wall would be enough to fry everyones brains in the center regions
17:53 I remember reading on the wiki about a story of a mutant that ambushed a Duty squad and a few Stalkers, basically the Stalker got knocked out by the psy-power of the mutant and when he woke up he saw the corpse of several Duty soldiers and the rest of the squad covered the corpse of the mutant with cloth and carry it away
Ive recently gotten into the STALKER franchise and your vids have been the best source of lore and secrets i wouldve never found/ appreciated without them, keep up the great work 🤝
Psy-emissions and their effects really are terrifying. Suffering from all that mental (and probably physical) anguish and the zombification from over exposure... those poor souls who fall victim to the emissions really need to be put out of their misery. Great video as always btw.
Electric powers and psy-emmissions are definitely connected to eachother, and could explain the thunder and lightning seen during emissions, as well as the electrical field around poltergeists.
I'm a massive fan of lore videos anyway but have really loved your channel since i found it. I really fell in love with S.T.A.L.K.E.R. I think your storytelling gives a feeling of weight and authenticity. It makes the game world more vibrant
Another great and well-prepared material, my friend, which was a pleasure to listen to! It's a pity that in the games we don't see the consequences of the First Emission, during which not only anomalous power was released, but also psionic emissions, the effect of a local disruption of the noosphere. What I mean here are the zombified scientists, workers, guards, soldiers and all other people involved in activities in the Zone before 2006 roaming around factories and laboratories. Before the first Emission, the hidden activities of the Yantar Factory, Jupiter, laboratories, and the Pripyat-1 facility must have involved a lot of equipment and personnel, who were surprised on the night of April 12, so anyone who was outside the buildings or basements must have fallen victim to the destructive psi waves. Various abandoned vehicles would also be an interesting addition, such as prisoner trucks transporting convicts intended for experiments, because patrol vehicles of the army guarding secret facilities and tankers that probably transported chemicals necessary for the experiments are visible in all three games.
@@anomalousdugout9557 indeed, but many channels about stalker or changed it content or just stoped posting. Glad to see that you still active and getting good views! btw, where are you from?
This is probably one of the, if not the best video you made yet. The research and work you do for these is amazing. Stalker lore goes so deep, it's incredible.
Fantastic content. Get ready for an influx of views, with the recent port to console there will be many people like myself wanting to learn more. I’m hooked.
I really hope you keep making these. No pressure at all of course you should do what you want. I’ve watched most of not all of these videos and your voice really fits narration so well. I’ve honestly put some of your videos on to sleep to at night haha
Getting a new anomalous dugout video is like getting a PDA message from the scientist bunker about investigating a new x-lab, always exciting and takes top priority
this is your highest quality film yet. We all can feel the difference in writing of the script. This makes the video very interesting throughout the whole vid.
Im super new to stalker and getting ready for 2 to release so thank you for making these videos because I am a lore junkie and it helps build out so much of the game world in a short time. Only a few videos into your channel and your content is amazing! Hope you are well and thank you again
Unless I missed something, psychosomatic effects can explain how a psychotronic weapon could effect the body. Psychosomatic refers to the relationship between the mind and the body and how the mind can effect the body (to put it simply). It follows that a psychotronic device could in theory cause the mind to change the body if it effects the mind properly. Afterall the brain controls much of how the body develops. (remember 'psycho' just means 'mind' and 'tronic' simply means 'relating to electronics', so psychotronic simply means electronics that effect the mind.)
This was an incredible analysis, Anomalous. You really put some work in on this one. As always of course. I cant get enough of these kinds of videos from you ✌️
STALKER really has the most unique lore and has the best atmosphere of all games. - that comes from someone who plays videos games since the early 90s ;-)
I've been watching your videos for months maybe even years and i just realized i have not subscribed yet lol please do make more stalker content it's really great analyzing stalker lore and i can't wait for stalker 2 hope you do a playthrough.
Actually, in unpatched version of SoC, when Brain Scorcher's phantoms collide with player character, they decrease psychic health, depending on difficulty. An I guess in patched version this works as well.
2:53 I always though that this blue bar is the stamina (because of the lugs icon) and is always full (even in the stamina in HUD was depleted) because of a bug. I play this game 10+ years and I often find new things!
Even if "psychotronic" is not a dictionary standard word, it is still a perfectly acceptable one. "Psycho" comes from a Greek word meaning "soul" or "mind" and "tronic" means "relating to electronics" or simply "electronic", again coming from a Greek word (elektron, which actually refers to amber, which you can use to generate a static charge). So with 'psycho' used as a prefix and 'tronic' as the suffix. You get "electronics effecting the mind".
To me, Psi and psychic were always separate. Psi does help manipulate psyche like Magic with fire, but tech manipulating psychotropics were always separate. Also knowing the word helps with conversation, thanks for the lore!
I like your content man, been here long enough before thousand others. Videos like these, especially when polished, bring more attention to stalker. Which before the announcement of stalker 2, literally survived by having a cult behind it worshipping the thing and making mods to this very day.
@@anomalousdugout9557 I suggest you add more "character" to your voice or audio, in this case try to make cleaner audio that is clear and without noise, there are cheap mics available that can help. Also your accent makes you stand out from other content creators with the same topics, so you dont really need to improve a lot on your english pronounciation, just make it a bit more clear and understandable, its a part of why I like your vids. You can also delve deeper into more obscure stalker stuff or remake your old videos when you get better equipment. Theres also no need to focus on vanilla stalker specifically, maybe some stories from quests in big mod packs?
You could do a video investigating Scar's strange abilities if there is any info available. How and why is he able to survive strong emissions and other extreme environments? Is he some sort of chosen one or did he have a past experience that made him resistant? Is it genetic? Does his scar have anything to do with it (the Scar anomaly in CoP is a psychotropic anomaly, just a thought lol)? Is he the only one with this ability? Furthermore, I find it strange that Lebedev tells Scar that he will die if he doesn't stop the emissions because it is destroying his nervous system. If taking cover is a viable option for other stalkers, why can't Scar just do the same? Do emissions still damage his nervous system even if he is sheltered?
Joking aside the Zone was created by brainwaves. If you think (or delude yourself)hard enough those brainwaves can be countered by brainwaves. The reason why survivors of emissions also adapt to them is also...the placebo-effect. I'm just going to take my rock swaying my head and repeat my mantra: 'I refuse to believe it was a lazy design choice','I refuse to believe it was a lazy design choice','I refuse to believe it was a lazy design choice','I refuse to believe it was a lazy design choice','I refuse to believe it was a lazy design choice','I refuse to believe it was a lazy design choice',...
You could have used the PSY-Health from OGSR for footage as symbolic representation of it. Like ya did with using Artifacts as weapons in one of your other videos. it sounded like it was actually working like it was intended in the original version of the game
As a somewhat new stalker fan love these lore videos I actually put videos like these in the background while playing stalker especially playing the new console port of stalker SOC on xbox planning on getting clear sky and the last game they finally brought the stalker trilogy to consoles PlayStation and xbox respectively ive also dabbled in the pc games too
Just imagine: psy element is secretly a projection on ones mind but with enough energy and, if controlled, with enough skill of the one that controls the psy-field, the image and feelings that are experienced become real to some degree. Like here you are seeing the emission represented as a firestorm, brain's fried to a crisp metaphorically. You use an artifact and it actually helps your body. Or if you are a greedy Strelok, you see the stuff around you turning into gold, which is really heavy, and some golden bolts just can't hold the roof and it collapses on you, the no-roof part happened because of a non-perfect psy projection, possibly due to instable and damaged yet somewhat functioning noosphere
Agreed I'd like to think psi-emission are projected/broadcasted brain waves along medium of radiation or electromag that scramble other's brain amid other effects. Thoughts are brainwaves witch in turn are electrical signals in the brain ie energy waves. Maybe something tapping into noosphere in limited/focused amounts. Also the true Pripyat horror are those wall illustrations always making me jump despite playing CoP many times
Were you going to do a non spoiler things to know video about stalker since they dropped on console recently? Been a fan for a while and always love to see you upload.
Pretty cool lore of how the zombies are made and its still scientific to the basal ganglia, cerebellum, and brain stem or the lizard brain is purely instinct making them feral animals is well thought out
Dang! just as I start to think I know enough about the zone, anomalous breaks my illusion. Every other game pales in comparison to stalker. Regarding psy emission, I think its actually an active-rift in the noosphere around the area in which stalkers get affected. When the noosphere is breached by some sort of device (which has the code to generate certain kind of EM waves), sentient living beings start to experience overwhelming thoughts and emotions, they are suddenly exposed to the collective consciousness of the world. Certainly its a lot of information and a single brain cannot process that amount. You mentioned that the large machine-augmented (cybernetically enhanced) brain in X-16 is used to create psy-emission. But it can also be a possibility that its a prototype brain designed to survive the rift and not crumble because of the tremendous amount of signals and information from the live noosphere. Or probably that brain is the key to controlling the rifts in the noosphere around lake Yantar. The emissions on the other hand is even more surprising to me because of its unexplained source. Its said to be coming from north (CNPP). But we are not given any hint of its origin or the physical device is never mentioned or talked about (generators maybe), I'm sure that device is somewhere hidden in CNPP buildings and the scientists from the common consciousness were controlling that until SHOC's cannon. I have a suggestion for next video: Foods and drinks in the zone, I'm really curios about the supply!
Interesting ideas you have, thanks for sharing. I did make a video about food in the past but I removed it due to some shenanigans that happened around it.
@@anomalousdugout9557 The reason I feel it is possible is because the description says it is “probably” the source of the emissions. Controllers are very intelligent and rarely attack entire groups of stalkers at once. I think there are two possibilities, either the controller noticed the psi emissions coming from the artifact and assumed the stalker group would already be weakened, or used the artifact either as a decoy or somehow imbued it with psi emissions.
*I'm probably sure that the Psy-Emissions are the main objectives of the Z.I.R.C.A in STALKER 2, the way the guy in a suit talks to Skiff about controlling the Psy-Emissions is proof of it, but their intentions look suspicious about it 😑 , maybe they end up becoming the main antagonist of the series... Who knows.* *Love Your Work , keep going 🫂*
Hello Mr. Dugout i have a question, back to the noosphere, why do the c-con decided to change human emotion especially one those of anger, fear, sadness and the related, have they thought of the consequences of those? I believe these emotion can help in a certain way, but what are their thoughts considering the removal or manipulation of the noosphere to do such an action?
Despite demonstrative evidence to the contrary, I still believe The Wish Granter is real. I also really like the idea that The Zone has a will, intentions, and desires. Are they unknowable and beyond human comprehension? Yeah. It makes things like "The Zone being gracious to you one day, and screwing you over the next" feel not-random.
@@anomalousdugout9557 I’m glad to know that I’m not crazy at least. But I think it was wise to cut it, leaves more to the imagination and might’ve been too heavy handed
Hay dugout, did you ever notice the extra large soldier's in the village near the army warehouse? I found them a few weeks back and thought if you ever covered them in a video. All the best stalker. See you in the zone.
I think Psi-Energy is a form of Electromagnetic wave. I'm not sure if this is scientifically accurate or proven but in real life I heard things like transmission towers and power pylons can emit certain frequencies capable of mildly affecting humans. Causing mildly discomfort or headaches when near them but it depends on the frequency strength. I believe this might be the reason Psi fields are usually found near sources of electricity alongside electric anomalies.
We all love you bro, keeping making great content.
Thanks. I will do what I can.
Agree we love you man
Big facts much love ❤🗣️
I legit wanna run across a npc scientist running around the map named anomalous dugout.
I support that statement whole-heartily. Heartedly? You know what I mean...
More lore about some S.T.A.L.K.E.R. subjects, thank you very much Dugout.
Yes!
Honestly horror from Pripyat sounds like such a cool idea, i wonder if stalker 2 will expand on it.
The tragic fate of Colonel Kowalski's unit should be enriched with this element, there is a clear lack of explanation of what happened to Lieutenant Skelia's last unit. Moreover, the confrontation with the Horror of Pripyat in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, for example, again near the school would crush the chair.
Yes that could be cool.
I really hope they add a lot of big monsters to find, sealed away in ancient bunkers, growing.

This is your best video yet, brother. I'm really looking forward to see how much S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 will expand on the subject.
I'm sure we will have many more years of content to explore and share.
Really? Nice.

The Illusionist... who know what it really was.
More lore,more fun great work I don't know anyone more dedicated than you in deconstructing,analyzing and explaining great work!
Thanks.
So glad these games came out on console, I finally get to experience the ZONE! Great vids btw🙌🫡

Another great and well-prepared material, my friend, which was a pleasure to listen to!
It's a pity that in the games we don't see the consequences of the First Emission, during which not only anomalous power was released, but also psionic emissions, the effect of a local disruption of the noosphere. What I mean here are the zombified scientists, workers, guards, soldiers and all other people involved in activities in the Zone before 2006 roaming around factories and laboratories. Before the first Emission, the hidden activities of the Yantar Factory, Jupiter, laboratories, and the Pripyat-1 facility must have involved a lot of equipment and personnel, who were surprised on the night of April 12, so anyone who was outside the buildings or basements must have fallen victim to the destructive psi waves.
Various abandoned vehicles would also be an interesting addition, such as prisoner trucks transporting convicts intended for experiments, because patrol vehicles of the army guarding secret facilities and tankers that probably transported chemicals necessary for the experiments are visible in all three games.
Yes, this would have been interesting to see.

Horror from Pripyat is a distant relative of the Poltergeist of Kiev and the Odessa Adidas and Kvass Bandit.

Hell yes absolut dope video🔥well done stalker🫡

You could do a video investigating Scar's strange abilities if there is any info available. How and why is he able to survive strong emissions and other extreme environments? Is he some sort of chosen one or did he have a past experience that made him resistant? Is it genetic? Does his scar have anything to do with it (the Scar anomaly in CoP is a psychotropic anomaly, just a thought lol)? Is he the only one with this ability?

It's an interesting topic but I'm not sure we have enough information to really cover it.
First controller was in the tunnel with that weird artifact he took over my mates but i gunned him
down quick enough man that was freaky asf
a zone mystery: how can crappy buildings with holes everywhere protect against emissions?.
Joking aside the Zone was created by brainwaves.
If you think (or delude yourself)hard enough those brainwaves can be countered by brainwaves.
The reason why survivors of emissions also adapt to them is also...the placebo-effect.

Glad you enjoyed.

As a somewhat new stalker fan love these lore videos I actually put videos like these in the background while playing stalker especially playing the new console port of stalker SOC on xbox planning on getting clear sky and the last game they finally brought the stalker trilogy to consoles PlayStation and xbox respectively ive also dabbled in the pc games too
Nice!
You are doing an amazing work. Keep it alive, stalker.

I always wonder if there was error that when having encounter with Controller in X-16 you get tip for not going "overweight" with gear in backpack
Another banger from anomalous🔥🔥
Thanks.
I wish there was a certain meds or head piece (headwear) that can treat that cut psy herth then it would be better.
What is the first music at the beginning of the video ? And by the way nice video, now i know much about the differents psy.
The music is "Mass" from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 OST.
@@anomalousdugout9557Merci beaucoup 👍🏻

Were you going to do a non spoiler things to know video about stalker since they dropped on console recently? Been a fan for a while and always love to see you upload.
I thought about it but it's not really my thing, I trust other channels can do it better.
Pretty cool lore of how the zombies are made and its still scientific to the basal ganglia, cerebellum, and brain stem or the lizard brain is purely instinct making them feral animals is well thought out
Dang! just as I start to think I know enough about the zone, anomalous breaks my illusion. Every other game pales in comparison to stalker. Regarding psy emission, I think its actually an active-rift in the noosphere around the area in which stalkers get affected. When the noosphere is breached by some sort of device (which has the code to generate certain kind of EM waves), sentient living beings start to experience overwhelming thoughts and emotions, they are suddenly exposed to the collective consciousness of the world. Certainly its a lot of information and a single brain cannot process that amount. You mentioned that the large machine-augmented (cybernetically enhanced) brain in X-16 is used to create psy-emission. But it can also be a possibility that its a prototype brain designed to survive the rift and not crumble because of the tremendous amount of signals and information from the live noosphere. Or probably that brain is the key to controlling the rifts in the noosphere around lake Yantar. The emissions on the other hand is even more surprising to me because of its unexplained source. Its said to be coming from north (CNPP). But we are not given any hint of its origin or the physical device is never mentioned or talked about (generators maybe), I'm sure that device is somewhere hidden in CNPP buildings and the scientists from the common consciousness were controlling that until SHOC's cannon.
I have a suggestion for next video: Foods and drinks in the zone, I'm really curios about the supply!
Interesting ideas you have, thanks for sharing. I did make a video about food in the past but I removed it due to some shenanigans that happened around it.
I believe it is possible that the controller was the source of the psi emissions instead of the altered insulator, but obviously cannot be sure
It's possible, but the field instantly goes down when the insulator is picked up so who knows.
@@anomalousdugout9557 The reason I feel it is possible is because the description says it is “probably” the source of the emissions. Controllers are very intelligent and rarely attack entire groups of stalkers at once. I think there are two possibilities, either the controller noticed the psi emissions coming from the artifact and assumed the stalker group would already be weakened, or used the artifact either as a decoy or somehow imbued it with psi emissions.
Amazing pronunciation
nice background themes!
The S.T.A.L.K.E.R. soundtrack fits perfectly.
"ahnamoolooos doogout" i love the way you say it 😂😂😂
great video, thank you dugout
:)
This content just hits a little better because it's read by a Slavic man
Bae, new Anomalous Dugout video dropped!
Yes.
*I'm probably sure that the Psy-Emissions are the main objectives of the Z.I.R.C.A in STALKER 2, the way the guy in a suit talks to Skiff about controlling the Psy-Emissions is proof of it, but their intentions look suspicious about it 😑 , maybe they end up becoming the main antagonist of the series... Who knows.*
*Love Your Work , keep going 🫂*
Maybe that will turn out to be the case!
Hell yeah another Dugout vid
Hello Mr. Dugout i have a question, back to the noosphere, why do the c-con decided to change human emotion especially one those of anger, fear, sadness and the related, have they thought of the consequences of those? I believe these emotion can help in a certain way, but what are their thoughts considering the removal or manipulation of the noosphere to do such an action?
Despite demonstrative evidence to the contrary, I still believe The Wish Granter is real.
I also really like the idea that The Zone has a will, intentions, and desires. Are they unknowable and beyond human comprehension? Yeah. It makes things like "The Zone being gracious to you one day, and screwing you over the next" feel not-random.
The concept of the Zone being alive and having its own sentience is mentioned in Anarchy Cell design docs but did not really make it in Clear Sky.
@@anomalousdugout9557 I’m glad to know that I’m not crazy at least. But I think it was wise to cut it, leaves more to the imagination and might’ve been too heavy handed
I love your channel bro
Thanks.
Stalker, stop singing the guitar, Anomalous Dugout dropped a new video!
Indeed.
In the zone,you move your mouth to sound the guitar
OGM Ezio Auditore, is that you? XD
Hay dugout, did you ever notice the extra large soldier's in the village near the army warehouse? I found them a few weeks back and thought if you ever covered them in a video. All the best stalker. See you in the zone.
Yes, I know about them. There is also an oversized car. Thanks, you just gave me an idea!
@@anomalousdugout9557looking forward to seeing what you have to say, all the best.
Mom!!! Mr Dugout made another video !!!!
Yes.
@@anomalousdugout9557 good info all this is making sure we're ready when stalker 2 release.... Keep up the great work !!!!!
Hey whats the background music during the effect on humans bit
I also want to know
"Mass" from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 OST.
"Mass" from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 OST.
@@anomalousdugout9557 thank you so much
Nice video bro
Thank you.
I think Psi-Energy is a form of Electromagnetic wave. I'm not sure if this is scientifically accurate or proven but in real life I heard things like transmission towers and power pylons can emit certain frequencies capable of mildly affecting humans. Causing mildly discomfort or headaches when near them but it depends on the frequency strength. I believe this might be the reason Psi fields are usually found near sources of electricity alongside electric anomalies.
another banger
Yes.
Gros salut du Québec!
Hey!
i love your videos
Thank you.
