S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Not really cancelled

I expected an atmospheric, railroaded experience from the game and it was exactly what I got. The only complaint I had is that you don't really get much of the story, that's a truely shitty part. I advice everyone to read the book - it's good as already pointed out by other people (even thoug lots of Deus Ex Machinas - that was really over the top - but make up your own opinion by reading it)

Seconded.
Thirded. I loved the whole idea how the protagonist red some book about demonic Kremlin stars and the devilish idea of Lenin being in a supposed alliance with the satan is really damn spine chilling, especially if you know the history of USSR, it absolutely confirms the fantastical writings of Glukhovsky. Speaking off-top, it must have been the most anguished nation of the twentieth century... :?

Am I the only one who thinks that the Metro game was 100% crap? They tried to press the story of the book into the game and the result was a linear scripted mess which railroaded you from A to Z with scripted sequences every 10 meters. Horrible shit. They could have done so much with it, but instead they had to go this way and fucked shit up. Plus, the ugly checkpoint save-system, which made me go rampage after a while.

No, you are not alone my dear padawan! :cool:

You described the game exactly, is boring, boring, boring.
I was expecting having to fight for my survival in a post apocaliptic Moscow, instead I have a linear shooter with every location looking like the next one.

The metro portion bores you after some time. Then you finally go out and look at the destroyed Moscow and "hole shit, what happened here, WoW"!
5 minutes later you are bored again, but this time in white/gray palette, instead of green/brown one.

PoS game, 100%.
 
So, for the Poles, is there some nostalgic multi-billionaire in your country that takes a fancy to game companies? Sees somebody possibly shutting their doors, has a misty-eye moment, mutters "Never again..." after thinking of Poland getting steamrolled in WW2 with little help from the rest of the world, and wires blank checks to 'em?
 
Taken from their gsc-game.com website: "Currently GSC Game World works on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 - the official sequel of the best-selling game series. The studio also plans to create a S.T.A.L.K.E.R.-based movie and TV-series to be launched simultaneously with the new game." Sounds like a lot of ambition with both a game, movie and tv-series at the same time.

Not to my knowledge. We all work from the ground up and claw our way into the light.
