What players think
The recurring themes across 192 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Exploration itself is a core pillar of the experience, and the village serves as both a gameplay space and a narrative device.
The atmosphere works, the gameplay is surprisingly smooth, and the stalker’s design is on point.
Poor optimization I'm playing on rtx 3070 and have to play with 720p resolution or my gpu going 100%.
It would be cool to add more tips, so it would easier to navigate and learn map.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. One more theme was raised by fewer than 4 sampled reviews and is not shown.
