Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl had its share of jump-scares, but what made it so memorable was that the neck-tightening tension never evaporated, even in broad daylight.
Reinstall invites you to join us in revisiting classics of PC gaming days gone by. This time, Chris returns to the haunted, irradiated wastes of Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl.
This is not a world in which to fire from the hip, expecting to take down a crowd of enemies. A well-placed bullet can cripple a player; a perfectly-placed one can kill. The silhouette of something moving on the horizon is cause to drop into a crouch and pull out your binoculars. Is it human? Good. Well, not good, but potentially not bad. It might be a bandit, or a Monolith member, or even a zombie, all of whom are bad news.
Few games have made looting as essential as SoC. A few crusts of bread, an extra bandage and some anti-radiation meds make a gruesome firefight worth the effort, because no matter how long you've been playing, no matter what gear you've amassed, these few items can mean the difference between life and death. And isn't that the best part of any RPG? The early days, when every rubbish bin holds a treasure? Here, that feeling never goes away.
