Good video, but there are some misconceptions. The meaning of the backronym (Scavengers, Trespassers...) was made up by the western publisher of Shadow of Chernobyl and isn't canon, because in the game itself the backronym is not used to refer to ordinary stalkers, but is only a tattoo of the main character, the origin and meaning of which is explained at one point in the story. The story of A-Life beating the game before the player is a bit exaggerated - GSC had such ambitions, but at no stage of development such level of AI was achieved, and it only ended with many lines of scripts that were never completed. So it's not like they had to 'nerf' the A-Life before the game was released, because it was never that advanced.
Amazing video, the pacing and your calm yet serious demeanour was a blast to listen to, I only just started playing Stalker yesterday and man, this game is something else. I wanted to learn the history of stalker and some facts about the game to help me better understand what the heck is happening as I play such as the history between the factions and the general lore of the game. I didn’t learn exactly that here but that’s obviously not what you went for but the video grasped me to keep watching anyway, we’ll done. I hope to see your channel grow, especially around the release of Stalker 2. Will definitely be keeping an eye on your channel and share it with my other buddies who are also new to the series. (P.S fact #9 scared the crappers out of me, that campfire scene where he scared the fellow stalker from the S2 got me good)
Thanks a lot man! I really appreciate the kind words. There are a couple videos out there that do the lore and story better than I could ever imagine. I always recommend playing through the games before researching too too much because that sense of mystery and just playing a game as a newbie for the first time is something I always enjoy. That being said this video: ua-cam.com/video/coIFssPeJpA/v-deo.htmlsi=4YW3fD4z3ajxmA5r from Anomalous Dugout does an amazing job at encapsulating the stalker games going into stalker 2.
@@lonerjb No worries! I won’t tarnish that sense of wonder don’t worry, I like lore hunting in the game when I get invested but before I do I like to explore a bit about the history (not too deep but just enough to get me invested enough to try and uncover something specific). I will definitely check out that video once I get myself nestled in the game properly though, thanks for your effort in providing content for the stalker community and newcomers interested in the game like myself.
Yea, I had a lot of life happen between the end of September into February, I don't have the pc or drives any of that was on anymore unfortunately. Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed it! I will probably bring it back at some point and hopefully with much better production quality, but it will be a little while before I get back on that.
You should check out STALKER Beyond. It is a whitelist DayZ Stalker Role-play server which aims to achieve an accurate stalker universe in multi player. I would like to see what you think of this server as STALKER UA-camr.
Wait wait, Clear Sky / Final Day? It was never established that Final Day and Clear Sky were the same faction and/or even connected? What are you on about? What did i miss and where?

I have been waiting for StalkerZ to come back up to try. I will look into this! Thank you for the recommendation!
Oh man I wana jump
On that server dude
Honestly to me, these seem the basics of STALKER not interesting factoids
okay
