    If you wonder why Scar is supposedly "out of character", because this is no longer the Scar from Clear Sky. His personality was reprogramed by the group behind the Zone.
    Damn shame you can't say it to him in his moment of doubt... :/

      Not quite, and before this Scar was quite a joking and chatty Stalker. According to the dialogues in Clear Sky, this is so. It’s just that in the initial intro he was shown quite serious and the video was not entirely handled by GSC, but by a third-party organization from Australia. By the way, they made the opening intro for Shadow of Chernobyl where they showed an unknown Stalker who saved Strelok from the death truck and who was then not mentioned anywhere in the plot.
      The encoding of the C-consciousness is not reprogramming the personality, but another defense system of the C-consciousness. Like a Brain Burner or Monolith. It simply makes you want to perform a certain task from the C-consciousness like “Kill the Strelok”.

      He survived three emissions, outside. He was indeed not a serious character, but surviving three emissions did a job on him.
      Also, he was an agent before Clear Sky events. There's a PDA on Clear Sky base that mentions some kind of neuro device was planted in Scar, which is probably the reason why he survived those emissions in the first place, and was sent into Swamps to help Clear Sky. That unexpected first emission during the prologue of Clear Sky? C-consciousness caused it, to interest Clear Sky in Scar, since he's special.

      @@Sychyov He didn't get anything psi-resistance implanted in him. The C-Conciousness agents archive in Stalker 2 says he has innate resistance "5th class psi-resistance assumed". Maybe the cannon changed, idk. It's also unlikely Scar was an agent before clear sky since his agent number is A:LS-017 and Strelok's is A:LS-013. Both were most likely taken to the reprogramming hallway after Clear Sky's ending.

    My read on Scar's chadacter is this:
    Scar was Scar when we played as him in Clear Sky, but after the large emission at the end of the game, everyone at the CNPP who survived got taken and reprogrammed.
    Marshall was one of the original founders of Spark group. His memories got put into Scar, hence why Scar is so passionate when he tells the story of the chemical plant and his hatred for Ward.
    Scar was never involved. He wasn't there when Ward destroyed the OG Spark, he wasn't there when the chemical plant got taken over, he didn't found Spark and he doesn't hate Ward. He thinks he does, but it's actually Marshall who did.
    Somehow the monolith got a hold of Marshall and transferred his memories over to Scar and sent Scar to be the leader of Spark as an inside agent of sorts without him even knowing it.
    Scar being on the inside at Spark was essentially another X-project. You can read it in one of the notes found in Doctor's journals in his office. There are files depicting most of key characters being agents of the C-coinciousness and in Scar's file it literally says that his entire personality is the result of putting Marshall's memories into his head.
    Essentially, Scar is more of a vessel, rather than a character. The character and personality of Scar is mostly Marshall.

    Although its completely non-canonical nor possible, what if the STALKER program had teased/revealed that every 'save' was actually the memories of the previous stalker implanted in the current player character? That every save after death activates a new sleeper agent, ensuring that such a conscious would surpass death and theoretically overcome any challenge no matter how improbable.

      Hell, according to "leaked" screen story of stalker2 back in 2018 Strelok supposed to be clone double create by C-Con with all his memory installed so it ain't far fetched, Charon could be Scars prototype clone/body double.

    What I love about this game is that they did something different from other medias' sequels. They didn't glaze the previous characters, and they didn't assassinate the previous characters. Strelok, Scar, and Alex were largely blank slates (except maybe Alex) so we really didn't have an idea of how these characters are outside of our influence. In the Zone, there really aren't heroes or villains, only legends.
    Strelok and Scar becoming antagonists (while not necessarily being villains) doesn't come off as a huge middle finger to the audience. I really enjoyed this game, but I've since uninstalled it until they improve the performance.

      My personal theory is this. Scar who is our protagonist in Clear Sky is an elite mercenary who only cares about who pays him the most and is said to have dry humor by Lebedev. We can see that his personality is extremely different after the 2011 raid on the CNPP. I believe that "Marshall" was a Clear Sky memeber who fought along side Scar against the monolith in Limasnk, the Hospital, and the CNPP since Scar says he once knew him as if talking in the third person. After the Emission which ended the game we can see Scar, Strelok, and many more Clear Sky members in the TV room. The screen which scar shows as a "Memory Dump" from the stalker Marshall to Agent Scar leads me to believe that the consciousness and memoeries of marshall was copied over to scar which could explain the different personalities and the skeleton who is presumes to be Marshall.

      Scar, is already a C-Con agent at the start of Clear Sky, the unique ability to survive emmestions and his enhanced body functions was the effects of C-Con Agent programming.
      As Clear Sky faction during their medical evaluation told Scar that he has those unique abilities, but they didn't know that he is like that because he is an Agent!
      The re programming, is what made Scar to obey Clear Sky orders, on the idea of preventing anyone from approaching the CNPP.
      Ultimately, he was reprogrammed once more, getting memories from Marshall.

      Marshall is original Spark leader, he was an agent of C-Con, then if I understand it correctly he was KIA, so C-Con had to take someone else. They got Scar after the finale of Clear Sky and transplanted memories of Marshall to Scar, so that he can be the new Spark leader, as original leader is, well, dead. So, Scar kind of isn't Scar from Clear Sky, he has the same body, sure, but not the same memories and mind, that's why he is different person now. Poor merc.
