Who /stalker/ here? I just want to get comfy around a campfire during a storm with my bandit buddies, and share stories about all the whacky shit we see in the zone.
Kek, I laughed, have a bump OP.

I like to yell cheeki breeki in the mountain.
>when you take acid and go innawoods with your /k/omrades to cosplay stalker but the next day you wake up in syria

I wish the zone was real and I wouldn't get insta-dead if I went there. It really seems like the life. I bet there would be all sorts of cool art coming out it, like WWI trench poetry and stuff.
It would truly be the last frontier on Earth. Another wild west, except even better. I want it so bad. I want to be Lord Humongus and I want to strangle bandit thieves and I want to scrounge for dog food and I want to clean my SVD after smoking some Duty fascists.
I just want to be a mysterious lone wanderer with more skill and less to say than most people.
I thought this thread was about literal stalking....lol
>>25329099
The zone is real. It just doesn't have anomolies and supernatural shit.
>there will never be a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2
>>25329178
I know that but I mean I want a place where I can shoot people and get away with it
>>25329010
Any robots want to take a trip to Pripyat find a beached boat, make it into a bar and exchange stories with fellow travelers and stalkers
>tfw replaying shadow of chernobyl at 12 am with all the lights turned off

Just go to Eastern Ukraine (not chernobyl)

>western volunteer militias (freedom)
>ukranian military

oh holy kek
>>25329250
i signed up for the escape from tarkov closed beta
i hear from a lot of russians that it is totally a STALKER 2, what do you think?

They are paid by the hour to spread that propaganda
It's gonna turn out to be shit like Survarium
>>25329478
Out of the two of them, I'd expect the westerners to light up a joint first, so as far as I'm concerned they're basically freedom
>>25329250
Escape from Takarov
or what ever it's called
its being Dev'd by some of the same guys.
OGSE 0.6.9.3 soon, fellow stalkers.

The Zone can be real

I'll come with you.

I've always loved the sky in Stalker. So beautiful, and yet so ominous.
>>25330487
I love the signature gas mask with the trunk. Eerie as shit. I'd love to get some tinted lenses for my own ( >>25330381 )
>>25330540
>>25329289
Imagine, friend. Sneaking into the exclusion zone in the dead of night during a thunder storm. The rain pattering softly onto your gas mask as you scramble in. No real chance of getting caught by any sort of patrols, and yet your heart is still thumping as though there's an imminent threat just around the corner.
>>25330622
The Zone stretches out before you. Small ruined houses are scattered through the landscape as you move closer to the city. A small campfire would go unnoticed in this seemingly empty world.
>>25330686
Abandoned structures are everywhere. Despite the fact that you know it can't be true, you keep an eye out for anomalies. You keep a bolt in your pocket, just in case. (Or perhaps a nut with some cloth tied to it, if you're a Tarkovsky fan)
Fuck man. Other than bloodsuckers, pseudogiants, anomalies, bandits, and the military, it's such a comfy lifestyle.
>sit around a campfire on some used couch eating kielbasa, bread, meat conserve, and drinking vodka while telling tales, jokes, and listening to music
Fuck me, man. I don't wanna pay taxes or have obligations.
>>25330773
Fog..
>>25330982
So close to the city, you can feel Pripyat calling to you. The voice that you heard from your home has grown clearer and more decisive. The empty streets of the once populated place long to be walked again.
black raven... black raven!
circling
above the grave
>>25331089
come over here stalker, i may have some information that may be of use to you
Relax, we'll all be there.
>>25331125
i said come in! don't stand there!
w-why is this giving me feels, i thought shadow of chernobyl was just a decent but buggy game and i haven't even played call of pripyat
>>25331184
Because it's a way of life so much better than our current one. Think about it, there are no women in the zone, no taxes, virtually free guns, loads of alcohol and good snacks, good friends, and good times to be had.
STALKER has the best atmosphere of any game I have ever played, it's an atmospheric masterpiece. Try some of these challenges, they give the game replayability
>>25331255
Or you could just get a mod. I like Oblivion Lost. Keeps things vanilla but adds some new zones to explore. If you think ShoC is atmospheric, you should see what Build 1935 was like.
>>25331077
Finally you've arrived. You and your comrades climb up into an apartment building to get a view of the place you've come so far to see. The Ferris wheel, the power plant, it's all real. The streets below are barren and yet feel so alive. As you gaze out over Pripyat, you feel a serenity that is new to you. The silent metropolis. The quiet earth. Memories of your past life are lost like tears in the rain. You're a STALKER now.
>>25331255
I'd love to see someone who is actually good at this game stream some of these.
I wish I could try but I'm a wagecuck with no free time
>>25331510
I dunno, I don't think any stream can be as good as playing it yourself.
Also bump.
>>25330540
Trunked Gas Masks give you lung cancer. Its better to get the ones with the condensed filters.
>>25331510
I would stream but i'm Australian so internet is dial up
>>25332569
Why do they give you lung cancer? They still have the same filters, only on a long tube.
>>25332792
Older filters are quite hazardous most of the masks I own have shit that would give me lung cancer in the filters, feels bad man
