Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
What you are describing is pretty much just stalker games.
They are hard, they are punishing, they are moody and spooky, and they are immersive .
The last couple patches have rebalanced some of the economy and bullet-sponge. But it isn't a casual "run & gun" exploration game. Gotta treat the Zone with respect.
Having said that, worth waiting until ALife gets properly implemented (or at least partially implemented) and it should feel more immersive overall.
If I was running normal or hard, I could give those things a pass. Making enemies spongy and able to see better than you, your gun breaking after a couple magazines and constant eating and drinking, just doesn't make a fun experience. I'd hate to see a hard made. I'm still willing to wait a couple patches and come back.
