    hello from ukraine. i learned about you from the Messer channel (the guy who made the stalker iceberg video) and since then i've been enjoying your content. i was so surprised to see your name and interview mentioned all over the place, because you have a relatively small audience and damn, i feel so proud of you man. great interview, great questions. now i feel even more hyped for the game

    I was thinking of a question; Are the devs aware of the different mods for their games (ANOMALY/GAMMA)? what do they think? Do they perpetuate ideas in some of these mods? That would be a cool question to ask I think.

      @anomalousdugout9557  9 місяців тому +1

      I remember this question being asked in the Discord #ask-gsc before it was removed. The dev that responded wrote that they are not really fond of these mods because they can be played without having the original games.

      @@LeVraiFlorensac je suis un peu en retard, mais les dév ont dit que le jeu pourra etre modée assez facilement (peut-etre même avec des SDK et tout) donc de ce coté la pas de problème !
      Concernant GAMMA et Anomaly en effet, les devs ont l'air d'avoir un peu de mal avec ça, mais ultimement je pense qu'ils s'en fichent dans le fond, le principal c'est que chaque joueur trouve son compte, peu importe si ça passe par des modpack ou par les jeux originaux !

    Do we know how big the game is? Like the size of the map? Have they said its 2x or 3x the size of some former map? Or is it like the size of anomaly and how they stitched it all together? They really seem to be implying that its significantly bigger than previous games it seems

    • @anomalousdugout9557

      Yes, the map will be around 64 km² which is approximately 6 times bigger than all the previous games combined.

    @TheManeymon 10 місяців тому +2

    It always disturbs me that/when devs and market team employees are always so cagey.
    (I know the reason why they do it is to not impact potential sales, since the majority of the time the game is never worth it, is overhyped by fanboys, industry shills, and encouraged by the publisher/devs to increase sales.)
    A handful of these answers from them were interesting/not known before information; but judging from things like the terrible DLC practices that are already known about Stalker 2, and the many commonplace despicable examples of game devs/publishers hiding the poor quality of their game from players before release, I'm always on guard for scummy business practices in the video game industry.

    This game will be more about scripted cutscenes telling characters story then what shoc was about. First one had only writing dialogues basically and was all about the "zone", random encounters with mobs and AI being smart. I expect this game to be metro exodus like.

    @StrLab 10 місяців тому +22

    Great interview, I understand they don't have many things to say right now, we just have to wait, but even then we learned some interesting things for the world, A-Life and artifacts.
    The fact that A-Life won't behave way too often but more discreetly I think is what makes it more real, being everywhere and doing everything would look intentionally and fake.
    I would prefer the world to be in pieces like in the first game, but even in an open area they can make locations look unique and with their own Identity, like in the first game.

    Pretty sure the SSD being a requirement shouldn't be a thing. HDD that aren't ancient are more then fast enough to load things like DCS (which is exponentially more demending then anything they can come up with) seamlessly. Looks like optimization is being overlooked and relying on the pc to do the work, cyberpunk 2077 style. Can't be a stalker game if it isn't buggy af right?😂
