Stalker 2: Heart of Chernobyl - Early Impressions (6 Hours In) After just six hours with Stalker 2: Heart of Chernobyl, I can confidently say I’m in love. The game not only delivers on the immense expectations fans have carried for years, but it also stays true to the iconic Stalker formula that made the series a cult classic. From the moment you step into the Zone, it’s clear this is a Stalker game through and through. The gritty, oppressive atmosphere, haunting anomalies, and unpredictable NPC encounters all feel perfectly tuned. Best of all, it doesn’t hold your hand. If anything, Stalker 2 cranks up the difficulty compared to its predecessors, which makes every moment tense, every decision weighty, and every encounter a true test of survival. The graphics are incredible, breathing new life into the Zone with stunning detail and lighting that’s as beautiful as it is foreboding. The atmosphere is unmatched—whether you’re exploring dilapidated buildings, dodging anomalies, or listening to distant gunfire in the mist, the world feels alive and hostile in the best possible way. Gunplay is tight and satisfying, with every shot counting, and the weapon customization options give you the freedom to adapt your playstyle. The voice acting is excellent, with characters that feel grounded and authentic, pulling you deeper into the story. And speaking of the story, it’s everything I hoped for—a mix of mystery, danger, and moral dilemmas that make you feel like your choices matter. In short, Stalker 2 is everything I wanted from a new entry in the series and more. It’s challenging, immersive, and relentlessly engaging. If the next dozens of hours are anything like the first six, this game is going to be something truly special. Absolutely loving it so far!

It's not what we wanted, that's for sure. It is also super woke. That being said, it's a great game if you were looking for an updated Fallout, with fast travel, different types of locations, and some space combat. It's not a Freelancer-type game or No Mans Sky. You can't travel across the galaxy as you like. However, what's there is good... the story, the characters, the combat, etc. But to reiterate... It really is super woke. It acts like a WEF mouthpiece, it even attacks meat.

They even have pink afterburner lights on the X-wings and a female C-3PO. They push the female hard in this Star Wars and you can see how the universe is being recreated in a more feminine image. Every goody is female and the worst bad man is a white male with a beard. It's hilariously obvious. Star Wars is unfortunately finished.

You know when your child tells you that he is Spiderman, and you entertain it for a short while, and then tell him to take the mask off and that he is not Spiderman and it's time for dinner... This movie is his wrong version of Spiderman. It's just woke garbage, unoriginal and poorly put together.

Lol, it just just ticks every social justice box they possibly could fit in it. It's honestly so bad!!

Once again the woke mob want to review crash a movie because it doesn't fit their narrative, but rather pushes family values, such as that of a father protecting his daughter. This is a fantastic, fast-paced, great watch, with some scares, for the whole family! The acting is more than good, the cinematography is excellent, dinosaurs' action is super cool... It's not a long movie and doesn't drag out some overcomplicated story, instead, it delivers just what it needs.

Outstanding. Visually brilliant, sound couldn't be better, the story is rowlingesque, the characters memorable. The flying is fun, the travel is well designed, although the map can feel a little clunky towards the end of the game. The combat is fantastic, unique and something that will change wizarding games forever. The game is genre defining, with a world thats been made with love and with fans in mind. My only gripes for the game is that it is less open world and more linear in its execution that I'd like, and I'd have preferred more spells, and more choice consequences. However, no game can have everything and what this game does, creating a hogwarts world for you to be the wizard you want, it is a game I have absolutely lived. Thank you for this treat! Thank you J.K.Rowling 🥰

I am so angry to say that they have completely ruined The Witcher. I love this story, this world, the characters, the monsters, everything about Witcher is fantasy Gold. Well, now it is so Woke and just absolute garbage!!!!

I battled to watch this woke garbage. From start to end, it's a never ending siege on reality. Women can do what men can, physically. White colonists with muskets are killed by the predator who is overcome by the minority group female with a hatchet. The performances by the actors and actresses are not bad, the sound track is well done, the setting is beautiful. It's just so woke, and for that reason, you know that when wiser heads prevail, this doesn't stand the test of time.

If a majority of parents, with children under the age of 16, can watch this film, I think it will be one of the most important films in the history of the United States. It has the potential to save future generations from normalising an evil culture that is targeting our most vulnerable. Parents need to watch this, to share this, and to take action. The time for indifference has passed. It is time to acknowledge the obvious child abuse taking place.
