    Being that I always play at night (ingame), It's always comfortable after being ambushed by bandits and mutants alike to come across a camp of stalkers kicking back, sipping vodka, telling dirty jokes, playing their guitars and just finding a way to make peace of living in an area as unforgiving as the zone. Makes for a good sleeping aid if you're a fellow insomniac, as well. Hope you enjoy.

    Edit in 2022: I get it. It's Ukrainian. You can stop telling me now. In fact, *please* stop telling me now.
    Below the cut is the comment as originally posted.
    I think having the spoken language as Russian makes it more interesting. It makes you feel more like an outsider, that you can't understand their conversations. You can act like you belong by keeping your head down, but you can't take part.
    Even so, you and the other STALKERs share a feeling that you don't find just anywhere. The feeling of a small piece of happiness, in a big world that doesn't care about you or anyone else. And even the language and cultural barriers are dissolved by a warm fire and a tune.
    So stay a while and listen, even if you don't understand. Because the companionship, however tenuous, can make the difference between surviving and being destroyed by your own mind.

      Nathan Lennox ...No, they're Ukrainian. Look, I'm not from that region, I can't tell the difference between any of their languages, so Russian was the one I defaulted to. Don't want to sound racist, even if I am culturally ignorant.

    What I find so compelling and relatable about the stalkers is that, even the guy decked out in an exoskeleton and lugging around a PKM, is just a regular person, trying to make it, most likely with loved ones back home.

    I'm a little bit of a scaredycat, so nights in the Zone always made me feel anxious and jumpy. It was such a huge relief to see some fellow stalkers camped out somewhere, I would always linger around their campsites a little longer than I think most other players did. Even just one guy at a little burned-out fire in the middle of a field was a welcome sight, but running into a whole group gathered around a warm orange fire, playing guitar songs inside an abandoned house was even better. That palpable sense of relief I felt is one of my favorite gaming memories. Incredible atmosphere.

    I once said stalker was one of the most immersive games out there and I stand by that statement. In any other game this shit would be a scripted event along a railroad, or the characters would be there to dumb massive story exposition on you, but here? Nah mate, just a bunch of random wandering loners who decided to sit down and shoot the shit a bit, completely optional and adds almost nothing to the story.

      Technically it is a group since most of the times stalkers do tend to walk in small squads, though, might end up making a bigger ones, which is why it is possible to see a group this big travelling around, though, most of time their equipment and weaponry is randomized with what rank tehy should be and etcetra, like stalkers in the rank of Master will always have exoskeletons, veterans - SEVA and experienced - "Sunrise" suit, also known as "Zarya".

    If you understand what they're talking about, you'll actually see that their speech options are pretty limited. All those jokes, when at least one listener laughs and at least one other listener makes one of "stale joke" replies. Some kind of "dreaming of outside the zone". Oh, if I had a good roast now…mmm… Of course, also usual chatter about bandits, the military, true stories and other stuff…
    At least all that looks more convincing than Radiant AI in Oblivion and Skyrim, for example.

      Even so they got the atmosphere just right with all this shit that you are not even all that likely to witness if you're just playing to finish the game. I think it just goes to show a game can be made far greater than it might have been if you don't just focus on what the player will be forced to see, but on what he has the option to see.
      Just imagine, if there is ever a STALKER 2, and they actually put serious effort into the interaction options of stalkers themselves...

    I knew a stalker from the Cordon. He was the first friend I made when I snuck into the zone. We were sent to hunt for artifacts together for various traders and we did a couple oddjobs. The money was good enough for one man to buy more ammo and get more food and meds, but for a two man operation it was barely enough to buy ourselves ammo we used. But we managed to live on that wage, we always did. Eventually one day we were ambushed by a pack of psidogs. We ran and ran, eventually I noticed that he wasn’t by my side anymore and I heard a scream behind me. There he was 15 feet in the air in an anomaly, screaming for my name. I scared the pack off and ran to him, but what could I do? I did nothing and watched as my one and only friend I ever made in the Zone was torn apart by centripetal gravity as the eggheads in Yantar called it. A chunk of him hit me pretty hard in my head and I blacked out. Somehow I woke up unscathed in the bloodied field. All that’s left of Dima were scraps of clothing and shredded pieces of his m16, and a Stone Blood.
    It’s been 5 years. I haven’t been outside the Zone for 5 years now. I’ve collected and sold countless artifacts, but the rubles don’t fill the void for me. The vodka helps with the pain, but it doesn’t go away. Everyone asks me why I keep the same Stone Blood on me; why do I never just leave the zone with all the money I made? I guess it’s because I like to keep Dima close to me, it don’t feel right taking a part of him out of the Zone. It’s all I have left of him. Maybe it’s the Zone’s way of keeping me in here, this Stone Blood formed from Dima's flesh and bone. Ah well, such is life in the Zone. So, a toast, to Dima, may your soul fly far away from this wretched place.

    Around every corner, within every shadow, lies potential permanent death. Every step you take, you breathe shallowly, with eyes wide open. But when you hear the distant sound of guitar, you feel you have made it one more day to safety. That is what this video means to me.

    I love it when everything goes quiet. No guitar, no jokes, no muttering. Everyone just becomes silent, listening to the Zone. No one says it, but everyone knows already that you're all the same. All Stalkers that will fight and die side by side if the Zone tries to take them that night. All you hope for is to either be able to sleep or become alerted if the Zone wants to end you. Just when everyone is relaxed, they hear some poor soul screaming far out in the dark, alone. And then everyone becomes so grateful to be with fellow Stalkers.
    Also, some enormous, heavy balls setting up camp in the Bloodsucker Village.

    listening to songs they play, and I feel happy when sometimes they laugh, or just talking some conversation..
    for that very moment, I'm no longer alone, feels like they were there for me,,
    even if it's just game, feels like it's real life, like I live there..
    I really like to spend free times with them in bonfire for hours , just to feel the feeling of being with them

    To everyone asking which mod I'm using during this video: It's Complete 2009, which is a fantastic entry-level mod. A lot of of fans would recommend AMK (Which is great), but I do think this is a better mod to start with. For both SoC *and* CoP.

    I remember playing that game with my older bro, I always asked him to stay at the campfire or join a group of stalkers because I was really scared. Even nowadays I download STALKER just to sit at campfire with my fellow stalkers. As one man said "S.T.A.L.K.E.R is when you ctl+shift"

    Yeah, campfires in STALKER. They are like little islands of complete safety and peace. Like then you got out from some fucking scary-as-fuck lab, and you got lucky to hear this. I bet everyone who ever played this game was spending with this guys by the campfire some time. They are telling silly jokes (which still forcing you to grin) , complaining about their hard life in Zone, remembering home... Most soulful moments in whole game industry
