From what I'm reading, these changes were already present in the console ports released last year, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 also doesn't have a Russian dub.

Because of the repeated UK and USA-led genocides, we're going to remove the English language from the game too, right? anakin-padme-2

The studio with developers that joined a literal nazi battalion is also filled with nazis? Shocker!

Devs hiring Azov guys to do voice work for the sequel and bragging about buying the abduction vans for conscripts really took away my positive feelings about the series

[-] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 27 points 3 days ago

They also tried to crowbar NFTs into the game lmao

Absolute clowns

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 34 points 3 days ago

Really? I knew about the Azov shit but not about the abduction vans internet-delenda-est

Didn't all of the generic non-story-critical NPCs speak Russian even when playing in English? Did they patch out cheeki breeki not-built-for-this

The soviet union created the modern Ukrainian state but they would like to pretend nothing happened 1920-1990

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 34 points 3 days ago

Rather than the 70 years as a SSR I bet they fixate on a weird period of 1941-1944 Ukraine

But the Hetmanate! But the Sich! But the evul British for handing over the Banderites to the soviets!!!

If its good enough, russians will mod the ukrainian fascism out of the game.

Get out of here STALKER

I read the Roadside Picnic book that inspired this series, it's pretty cool but I have no interest in trying out the games

[-] Nacarbac@hexbear.net 13 points 2 days ago

The STALKER film is absolutely worth a watch, but it has even less in common with the games!

[-] grandepequeno@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago

Yeah I watched andrey rublev the other day, couldn't make heads or tails of it, but it definitely got me interested in more Tarkovsky

[-] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago

Have you seen Tales from the Loop and short films by Evan Royalty? Both borrow from Roadside Picnic.

[-] grandepequeno@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago

No, but that looks interesting

[-] Meltyheartlove@hexbear.net 45 points 3 days ago

The devs are Ukranian and the comments had a lot of anti-russian sentiments on steam from what I recall.

OpenXRay remains the hope for the original trilogy, even if it's 3/4ths dead
